Just wanted to brownnose a bit and say how much I’m enjoying the separate forum. It is wonderful to be able to have as many game threads going as there is interest in them. It is now my third stop on my tour around the fora (after MPSIMS and Cafe Society – what can I say, I’m a very shallow human being).

Thanks!

The game me and Jenny played in the coat closet last weekend at that party was pretty fun.

Oh… I wasn’t supposed to say that…  
Anyone for Monopoly?

Jenny told me you just wanted to monopolize her attention. 😃

What? The wood paneling isn’t good enough for you?

Glad you started this thread **twickster**. I am very happy for the Game Room. I have got my baseball and football in one spot, no more drive by “sports are for moron” posters and several active game threads that are running undisturbed and having fun.

It is going great.

So thanks again for those that made it possible and for \*\*fluiddruid \*\* for putting up with us crazies.

Jim

I wanted to put in _padded_ paneling. But nooooo, SOME body insisted on spending the board’s money on the fancy stuff…  
Anyway, me too! Thanks for making the Game room.
