Over 50 gamers, including quite a few new faces, braved the harsh elements for another 12 hours of gaming in Pittsburgh. The day of games started at noon during a light icing. The weather got worse and worse throughout the day, yet we bravely (stupidly) kept playing. By the end of the night, we were pushing gamers out of snowy ditches and wishing each other luck on the drive home.

This geeklist is a list of the games played throughout the day.

The Gaming Association of Southwestern Pennsylvania (GASP) gathers on the second Saturday of every month in Pittsburgh PA for 12 hours of gaming. We are open to the public. Our next Games Day is April 12. Hope to see some of you there.

For more information on GASP, visit our website at www.GASPgamer.com

Walking in at 1 and seeing the game sort of start (Not sure if it just started or not much happened yet) and seeing the game still going some 5-6 hours later made me quite curious. There's nothing I'd love more than one really spiffy strategy game... Guess one of these games days I'll have to burn giving it a shot. :p

I just can't justify spending 6 hours on only one game. Looked fun though...

Yeah, that's the difficult part to be honest. No matter how good the game is, there could be 12 other games I might not have played before that I'd miss... but if the game is that good, why not give it a shot? Really tough call in my book.

A good gaming experience is a good gaming experience. What's the difference between 6 good hours of one game or 6 good hours of four? It still results in 6 hours of quality entertainment.

Which is exactly why I'd try it. :)

I really liked this version. It's a better map (especially with 3) than the USA.

First time I played this one and dutifully got beat by some veteran players. Getting the 'Connect these cities' cards that were impossible to do didn't help things either. Makes me think of RR tycoon only simpler. I've also heard that some of the expansions make things even more interesting...
