Hello happy campers! I hope everyones day is off to a kumbayawesome start, and that you're ready for an EPIC finish, with Game Night 2016!
We just had a new addition to the fam a few wks ago so my better judgement told me to not leave my wife to take care of 3 young rascals + a newborn, all by her lonesome! I'm so sad to miss out on all the instcon fun this year... especially the 2nd annual #gamenight! Last year's GAME NIGHT (instcon15) was off the charts!
BUT... I was excited to hear @ldoughty and msl_adm's suggestion to have another game night! If I had more time before instcon this year, my plan was to organize a "Virtual Game Night" to run alongside the live Keystone game night! This way Canvas Community members who could not attend the conference (like me this year and @Chris_Hofer last year) could still connect with their Canvas Gamer Comrades and join in the fun!
I also wanted to leave it open so people could connect on Wed and Thu night as well, for more games! So you folks @keystone can meet up somewhere and/or virtually connect with the rest of us, online. Heck, we can even meet up after instcon! Last year I enjoyed a few games of Carcassonne, Lost Cities, and Ticket to Ride after instcon with several folks I met at Game Night. #kumbayawesomesauce
So I reserved a Game Night Virtual Lounge where we all can connect and find others to play games with! Feel free to jump in the room at any time!

↳ Join in from your computer/phone any time after 7pm on Tue, Wed, AND Thu. I'll be there!
↳ Feel free to invite others!
Chatstep makes it easy for us to also create other rooms, on the fly, like if several people want to play a game and chat at the same time (instead of the main lounge) we could easily create a room for it!
I've also created a spreadsheet (thx for the idea @KristinL ) that we can continue to use after instcon, to stay connected for games, games, and more games! Game Night - Gamers Unite!
