I decided to start this group because I love playing Scrabble while tipsy, but no one I know likes to play at all. I'm fairly competitive at the game, but amateur players are welcome. I envision having different levels of games going on. Also, players of other board games are welcome, for instance Boggle-afficianados. Members are encouraged to bring their own games if they have them, as I only have 2 Scrabble boards, 1 Othello board and a set of Banagrams. I think maybe I have Checkers, too, som …

Let's meet every other Tuesday at Hill Country Chicken, in the Flatiron district. They have a great downstairs area for meetups, and their chicken tenders are delish! See you there!

I am taking over this meetup since the former organizer is not doing it any more. I am definitely open to adding co-organizers, so please let me know if you want to do that. And/or if you can host an event at your place or a venue that you know and like. I am asking for $1 from everyone when they come to a meetup event to help with the cost of having this meetup site - it's $12/month so 2 meetups per month with 6 people at each should do it. I am not trying to make $ but don't really want to cov …
