Games, Games, and More Games!

Check out this awesome awesome video about the Hide & Seek Weekender featuring all our UK gaming friends like Alex, Holly, Simon 1, Simon 2 (sadly not Simon 3), our best buddy Tob, and a bit of The Go Game! We're at minute 1:30 and I am sounding particularly unable to speak the English language. But hey. At least we look damn good in our orange boiler suits.

Go Game for Good: Saturday Night Kiva!!!

To be precise, it was more like a Saturday afternoon. But it was certainly a smoking hot, disco ball-glittering, early John Travolta suaveness, flashing dance floor kind of extravaganza when we put a Go Game together in support of Kiva this weekend.

Monday Music Club: One Hit Wonders

Well hello there. Fancy meeting you here. Sure it's been a couple of weeks and we know that you've been waiting for a new Monday Music Club. Well here it is...on a Tuesday. You see, we took a week off to mourn the death of Michael Jackson. One week of mourning and dance parties turned into two weeks and...well...here we are.

Picking one hit wonders is hard work and here are some of our favourites!

The Go Game UK Update!

In case you're wondering just what we've been doing over here besides sipping tea and wearing fascinators to Ascot, here are some photos we just discovered online. Good photos, Katz!

Community Game Recap: The Super American Spectacular Go Game!

WOOOHOOO! AMERICA!!

The Go Game UK and Europe hosted the Super American Spectacular Go Game this weekend! As a community game open to the public, it was a fantastic Saturday getting everyone to get together to have a good time. For the U.S. expats in the crowd, it was a chance to honor the 4th of July and American independence back home. For everyone else, it was a unique opportunity to take the piss out of those bloody Americans by celebrating the best and the worst of the good old U.S. of A.
