Autumn approaches and with it, more chances to play games! What better way to spend a crisp (or toasty?) September… Read more Tabletop Tuesday: Get Games Played! (9/12)

The weather may not know it, but it’s autumn! Get on over here and play some September games with us! What are September games? Nobody knows. We’ll find out together on Tuesday, September 5th. One thing for sure: they’re gonna be great. We’re meeting from 6pm to 11pm, upstairs at Nellie’s in Palatine. Join us, won’t you?

August comes to a close and with it, summer. When we meet in September, the fashion wags will have banned white clothing for nine months, and we’ll have begun the tyrannical reign of months ending in ‘ber.’ So gather ye rosebuds while ye may, and come play games with us! We’re meeting from 6pm to 11pm, upstairs at Nellie’s in Palatine. Join us, won’t you?

Sure, most people remember the Ides of March, when Julius Caesar was killed by his pals in the Roman Senate. But what about the Ides of August? It’s the middle of August and you’ve played hardly any of the games from Gencon. You’ve got those old favorites you wanted to dust off this summer. You’ve got so much to play and so little time! Why not gird yourselves against treachery and join us on Tuesday the 15th? We’ll be upstairs at Nellie’s Gastropub in Palatine from 6pm to 11pm, and we can’t wait to play! Join us, won’t you?

Is there a shelf, or a table, or a pile in the corner of your place where games you’ve bought are waiting eagerly for you to play them? Maybe you try to feel better about the pile by calling it your “Shelf of Opportunity.” But whatever you call it, it’s a shame those games aren’t getting played. So come on out to toggle Gaming on Tuesday, July 25th, and bring one of them along to play! We’ll be upstairs at Nellie’s Gastropub in Palatine from 6pm to 11pm, and we can’t wait to try those games! Join us, won’t you?

You think July in Palatine is hot? Try July in ancient Rome! July 18th, 64AD marks the beginning of the great fire of Rome, during which Nero famously ‘fiddled.’ With their high-powered air con, our game night won’t be so hot, but why not commemorate the conflagration with a game of Fire Tower or Flashpoint Fire Rescue or something about ancient Rome? No matter what you want to play, join us at Nellies from 6pm-11pm on July 18th for some great gaming, won’t you?

Okay, it was a bit hard to come up with something creative for this week’s post. But we are meeting… Read more Tabletop Tuesday: A Big Gulp of Gaming (7/11)

Are you feeling like Katherine Heigl in the 2008 Rom-com 27 Dresses: always on the side, never front and center?

Join us at Nellie’s in Palatine from 6pm to 11pm for fun. And you don’t even need to dress up.

We challenge you to bring out some games that have the sun in them, or use the sun, or make use of the solstice itself. Or just bring yourself and have fun. See you from 6pm-11pm at Nellie’s in Palatine!
