New Barnga Question

Started Jun 26, 2011 0 Replies

Bob Rice replied to Jimbo's discussion Barnga with 12 participants
"I agree with Chris on using 3 tables of 4 for Barnga. That is, unless you modify the structure of the game. I don't have an immediate suggestion for that. Perhaps the NASAGA brain trust can come up with ideas. While my challenge was different,…"

"I would go 3 tables of 4. Playing a table of three might give you an odd man out. 2 players would have the same rule and one different. Even without talking i think the tables would quickly figire it out Best wishes Chris"

"Just met with a trainer who is looking to create a game (mostly board game) for an Action Learning certification program. As I get more information, I'm sure I'll be looking here for some ideas."

Very kind of you!

I will be there as my parents live in Seattle. It will give me a good excuse to see more of them and more of the wonderful people at NASAGA.

Congrats on a wonderful Canadian Olympics.

Glad to hear from you. I tried to send you some maple sugar, but apparently sending it through the mail is no longer possible.
