What we’re about
This group is an online community of board gamers. We play games online on a regular basis, and are happy to teach new games and help broaden our players' horizons on what's out there. For the most part, we tend to play light-to-medium-complexity modern games - think Catan, Azul, Splendor, Sushi Go, and other modern classics (and lesser known gems). Most of us are in or near the mid-Atlantic United States, but we have regular players throughout the country and beyond. Players of any age, background, location, or taste and familiarity in games are welcome here!
Our group primarily communicates with each other using Discord. Become more familiar with Discord here: https://discord.gg/
Most of our games take place on Board Game Arena, a website that allows you to play a lot of modern (and public domain) games online. Register for it here: https://boardgamearena.com/welcome

Feel free to message an organizer if you have questions or want to get a feel for what happens here, and we hope you enjoy the games and people!

•OnlineSaturday Night Board Gaming
OnlineCome out and enjoy some board games! Play an old favorite or something new – we're open to almost anything. Players of all skill levels are welcome! Don't worry if you don't know a lot of games, we're happy to help teach how to play.
The usual process here is that at 7:00, we'll all gather in Discord, chat with each other, and figure out what to play from there. People can drop in and out of the meetup at their leisure. We usually clear out around 10:00, but some of us may stay as late as 11 or 12. Either way, players can feel free to come and go as they want - no need to stay longer than you have the energy for or arrive precisely on time!
We use Discord to chat with each other while the games are in progress. The link to our Discord group will be provided once you've RSVPed to our event.
Most of the games we play are on Board Game Arena, which is a website that coordinates playing some games online (and for free!). Most of the games we play tend to be light-to-medium modern euro-style games. Check it out and register in advance here: https://boardgamearena.com/
That being said, if there's a game people are interested in that's not featured on that site, we're open to playing elsewhere too, as long as people don't need to pay for anything.
For the most part, we decide what to play on the spot, but if you want to request a game to be played, you ask and gauge interest in the comments of this meetup, or in the #saturday-requests channel of our Discord.
Any other thoughts or questions? Feel free to message an organizer or leave a comment!
