If you're like me, making that ridiculous jump in world 8-2 ranks up there with your first kiss and finally leaving home for school. I thought it would be great to get together a group of people who would meet maybe once every other week or so to play a few old-school games.

New games with that old-school feel are okay, too! Basically as long as the focus is on cleverly exploiting simple and fun mechanics and not bellowing swears at other people also pretending to be commandos, it's all good!

At this point I'm going to put this site out there and see if we can get enough people to join that we can take turns offering our living rooms for an evening of gaming. If all of this sounds good, then get your up-signing on!
