Welcome. This is a usergroup for those players who like to experiment with different game types, often outside of the current CC options. These are games that players have come up with, but which currently do not have official options. This group will be a place for players to connect, develop game ideas, schedule games, and participate in unofficial leagues and tournaments within the group.
Please read on for more information, and indicate interest by replying in this thread. Also, the name is subject to change for good suggestions.
Now that we are active, here is a sample of some of our current activities:
We recently tried some games with a new rule on cashing in cards for spoils as soon as you had a set, no matter the value or board situation. Named "Panic!," it has some serious influence on flat, nuclear, and escalating spoils games, and also adds a new dimension to freestyle vs. sequential play order.
Activities These are planned activities for the usergroup (open to changes): 1) Organize private games with agreed rules. 2) Discuss possible variations and set up games. 3) Discuss strategies of completed games. 4) Organize sitters for special rules games. 5) Promote special rules games through the suggestions forum. 6) Engage in thoughtful discussion and gameplay with like minded individuals. 7) Organize leagues and tournaments in various game types.

Me too. We already do a great job organizing our own events, and hopefully we will be able to play more games and spread the word even further!

Added, and those are exactly the kind of games we hope to facilitate more of!

I was out of town this weekend. I am going to share this link around some of our AA tournament games. I think once we get the 10 and get things running, interest will pick up. I already know that I will be hosting a league
i am interested in joining the group. i am fairly new to the AA style but the one game i have played was fun even i am going to be elimated early. but it was fun none the less.
Guys, this group is supposed to be about experimental games. If you have some time and feel like discussing about a new game setting, please come to those two threads
