So funny after some time to remove from what happened. Edak to fry a little, thief, maybe quite a little. When you are immersed in the bunch of what is happening, it is not possible to soberly to appreciate it, even after time. The third day of this month and the year, too, in the Arkhangelsk Regional Scientific Library. ON THE. Dobrolyubova took place a big game, dedicated to the International Day of Games - the World Action, which grew up from the Day of Games, held annually in the United States since 2008. The thing, no doubt, cool and interesting, allowing you to attract more visitors to the library that can have fun and interesting time, gain emotions, and at the same time relax in your deserved weekend.
I must say that relations arkhangelsk Desktop Club "Phoenix" And the regional library has developed yesterday and not the day before yesterday, but already have some story. Biblius and free game are on weekends - these are the events that, in particular, allowed to speed up the work of the srangian radio, let it work on those frequencies that people hurt for living. Attract, so to speak, new adepts. Show what is this - desktop. Give to try it on a cardboard taste and understand that this taste is unforgettable.
Of course, that day, not only those who wanted to play a board game found their refuge in the reading halls and Halls of Dobroobrovka. In the program of this day there were any bibli-relay and bibli-floders, exhibitions and even the language game "Polyglot". Intrun, who joined it, took part in some master classes, put fairy tales in the "Theater of Shadows". There was a chess club, and Vakhovtsy, held a tournament on the CCM and "his own game." In general, everyone entertained as he could. And among the "every" there were a lot of kids ... There was a rumor that somewhere there was Mahjong.
I remember on Friday, on the eve of the day, it was a little over midnight when Yu left the club and sent his wheels towards the bed with Pukhovo Pouche. We remained. Those hedgehogs that broke, compared to us weaklings. They cried, and we did not think to surrender until the beginning of the fifth was shouted. Meanwhile, blurred with a cardboard slightly cleared, and the awareness came with him that after seven hours we need to stand on the threshold of the library and be ready to bear good, kind, eternal in the masses. And most importantly, that we forgot to shook the cooked bunch of Games of Yu in the car, so they had to push them under the ceiling in my club, which henceforth and forever gained a new nickname - BoardGameBeep (for an audually authorship).
We dreamed a lot - many tables in the big reading room on the fourth floor, Olga left us with Masha for the elders, and herself went down to spread games for sale. Mashka looked a little bit, there were no people yet, and after a sleepless night I really wanted that this library silence would not disappear in the reading room, which seemed to have entered even in the roots of books. And generally wanted to play Card City, which we have mastered the day before. Yu, foreseeing what this event can turn into, forbade me to take Suburbia and generally games from our collection. I only took Fillers: Lemonade Tycoon, confetti, and still Card City, which by the way came in handy. These little boxes still lay on the bottom of the Vizhik still with a game of the club.
We looked around empty tables, painted beautiful leaky games on them: Ticket2Ride: Nordic, sheep life, marrakech, block, clico. In general, it was clear that the club regulars would come little if they would come at all. True, Olya requested the valiant Polisman of Vasilyeva to honor the presence and help us as they strengthened, and all the same came on our two girls. We assumed that there would be a lot of children with parents, because the stereotype "Games is for children" is still firmly recorded on a philistine subcorter. Yes, and I myself woke up half a day, if not a big game, for several hours turned the library into a real gaming house.
In general, we had to rest very much and very long, but everything that happened was very cool. During these six o'clock I have never really sat down, only once descended to Olga, and then I ate the tasteful pie in a tasteful cafe. To six o'clock I was turned off not only the language, but also my feet. For six o'clock I did not play any game !!! All this time, I constantly told the rules, arranged those who wish for the tables, offered him the stands, looking for some company and free chairs. Around me all the time stood the turn of those who asked me to open the world of board games. Should I miss at least one chance to do it? Not! I too manicly wanted to make as many people you left here with awareness of what such a world is, he is full of different interests, it is multifaceted and amazing. It's hard for me to judge whether it was, but I did everything that could.
Simultaneously played a 40-50 person. The digit on us two with Masha is impressive, especially if you consider that about four Masha had to go home, collect suitcases and go to St. Petersburg in the evening. Kostya played in Voraies, and I remained alone.
I have a lot crashed into my memory.
First, there were a lot of children. They were not just a lot, there were quite a lot of them. Among them were those who scattered T2R trailers throughout the table while I taught them the moms of turtle run. There were those who cheekily shouting at me, arguing about the rules in the wild jungle. There were girls-beech, which I offered to help and tell the rules of some Filler, and they went out, turned away from me, muttered "no need, we don't want ...".
But there was a three-year-old girl who came with a dope and the principle of the drums understood. There was a boy who came with his grandmother and looked long for a long time, that there is no UNO. And then I taught them to play a novelty from friends from Latvia - Air King, and he quickly understood what. There was a boy who played with an adult girl such a beautiful party in Rosenkonig, which I stood near and for all the time I could not tear off the eye field. The party was extremely exciting and interesting. But this is just a simple abstraction! At the end, counting points, as well as the monitor of them along the go, the boy either memorized, or multiplied in the mind of two-digit numbers, shocking adults in a small shock. And came out the winner, typing twice as much as the most stupid rival. Led also children with disabilities. With them, we played the crowd to Klikado, forming a large hedgehog. I tried to be delicate, and their caregivers were hot thanked me for attention and help. Our ChGK-Shnicam girls when they dropped out of the competition, which was held in the same hall, I showed Card City. Still, not in vain grabbed it from the car.
In general, in general, Olga picked up perfect games. For such events, all sorts of a party, mustache, fillers and perhaps a light euro are suitable. For this watch, I have not once explained the rules of the drums, wild jungle, Klikado, Marrakesh, potions, a challenge, lost cities, a king of air, Strathopolis, Card City, Roses War, Toothes, Confetti, Unwitty, Inneenius, Tsuro, Divinare. Machine karma Game Masters from her home collection was sheep's life (charming thing), and more Witch's Brew (in the commoner "Wichita"). In the euro, they were mainly played by those who were already familiar with desktop games; For sure there were T2R, Ank-Corporok and Thorishi.
Yu arrived under the closure to help gather and collect boxes. He promptly did it until the people got the last parties there. And I sat on the windowsill, satisfied, but sluggishly hanging on the leg, and recalculated the box, checking whether all the values \u200b\u200bare in place. After all, another day, our friend brought already from the first floor of a coin on two rubles, turned into constructions for guillotine, but, apparently, somehow sleeped. And then the high-oral spirit of the library worked, who did not give them to be out of the building :). I really remember this day.

For almost four hours, I tirelessly threw the cubes, led to a decline of the race, laid out new gains and attacked enemy planets. At this time, I turned into a naive child who sincerely believes that now he is a malicious dictator in the Galactic War, and now the harmful hobbit, which leaves impregnable holes everywhere. Perhaps this is the magic of board games, they rejuvenate you, they develop your imagination, they bring together with a completely unfamiliar to you. During the time I spent on the game, I met a huge number of people, started new friends in interest, I learned to play completely unfamiliar games to me and all this thanks to the store ... No, the store is somehow small ... thanks Board Games Society "We know play"».
