Family game nights, game nights in bars, game nights with friends– game nights are back!  And Board Games for Me can help…

It is a great time to enjoy board games. Great publishers are turning out a wide variety or high-quality games. Crowd-funding sites, such as Kickstarter, are allowing independent designers to create unique and interesting games. Internet video series, such as TableTop, are demonstrating how fun board games can be to a huge audience.

This rise in popularity leads to one frustration, finding games that fit what you are looking for can be difficult. Few people have the time to wade through the flood of games that are available to find something you will enjoy. Board Games for Me aims to make things easier for you by allowing you to easily search through several games and find ones that are the perfect fit for you. We want you to spend your time playing games, not searching for what you want to play next.

So, give it a try. You can have results back in less than a minute. What are you waiting for? Get out there and play more games!

As we roll the dice, we might recall that it was on this date in 1991 that Pamela Smart was convicted Coral Gables, Florida of conspiring to murder her husband Greg.  A 24-year-old part-time heavy metal radio DJ (she hosted “Metal Madness”, as “Maiden of Metal” on local station WVFS), Pam had seduced 15-year-old Billy Flynn, then threatened him with an end to her sexual favors if he failed to help her get rid of Greg.  Flynn obliged, with the help of three friends.  All five conspirators were quickly arrested, tried, and convicted.

Flynn, who is serving a 30 years, has apologized and asked for a reduction in sentence.  Smart, who is serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole, continues to maintain her innocence.

One can only wonder if regular game nights might have prevented this tragedy.
