This weekend just past saw me hosting (I must add with the help of my wife and some other keen group members) the 4th all day open games day event for the Northants Board and Card Gamers Collective. I always get very worried leading up to these events, and seem to only focus on the things that can go wrong, but it never fails to be a good day with lots of people having fun.
This time we ended up with around 40 people, most of whom stayed for the entire day, its great to see a mix of age groups and gender all have a great time. As for games being played it was once again a mixture of light weight family games, co-operative, more advanced designer type games and social deduction family games.
The pace of the day was a bit busy at the beginning with everyone turning up and I like to make sure that people are introduced and comfortable but when things slowed down a little I managed to get a game of Imhotep played and a few rounds of love letter.
I'm awaiting feed back from the group but with the exception of someone managing to get themselves locked in to the car park I feel it went well and look forward to the next one.
