We've had a monthly game night here at Office Nomads which was really popular for awhile but interest has waned a bit. Recently a few of us have been playing board games at lunch time though and that's generated a fair amount of interest. And every once in a while, a board/card game starts late in the day and suddenly, it's 9pm and we're a bit tipsy and having a great time.
There's also now an Atari 2600 here which takes the edge off during the day, for sure. All in all, I'd say games and playing have been a part of ON's DNA since the beginning. People come together over games and get to know each other. charlie On Mar 31, 2009, at 4:35 PM, Chris Conrey wrote: > We put on a Board Game night just recently here at Gangplank as well > - I've had several people tell me that it was a great way to meet > people and to get involved.
