Card Sleeving

David: Research sleeving Boardgames - Will think about it - This action item exists only to make David look bad - (Jokes aside this is part of a long term card sleeving project that is dependant largely on card sleeve supplies)

Library System

• Nupdates

Root Custom Dividers

• They exist to combine big boxes into smaller big boxes
• While theoretically a good idea, reduces our ability to play 2 games
• We discuss a lot of ideas about modular boxes
• Tactics do sell the dividers
• Doesn't need to be done yet, but good to keep in the back of my mind

Breaking Bad the Boardgame Donation

• David Says: "Is Enjoyable, insert book buy spiel here"
  • It's fucking breaking bad
  • In good working order
  • Small box
  • Where else are you going to find it, you literally cannot get it anywhere else
• Oscar Says: Is genuinely fun, I don't want to like it but I do. No graphic content, breaking ended a decade ago and people want to play it now
• James Says: did not like it, too memey
• Gibbi Says: it probably isn't for the bit at this point, majority of the games, providing opportunities for all games
• Jackie Says: Does the enjoyment come from the merch appeal or because it is enjoyable,
• Vikrum (Guest Librarian) Says: GoT fell off pretty hard and yet
• Connor Says: It ain't that violent
• Hannah Says: We can just give it back if no one plays the game, severely lessened interest on account of it being Branded Game
• Chris Says: what is it actually about? People are enjoying it.
  • Oscar: An asymmetrical card based
• Gen Says: Is the game unbalanced
  • Oscar: Not the most balanced, but kind of inevitable with asymmetrical games
• Motion to Accept Donation of Breaking Bad: The Board Game:
