This year's annual general meeting (AGM) of the Games Club will be held on Sunday March 3rd at 17:00 in R1.

The purpose of the meeting is to report on the status of the club and elect a committee for 2024. The meeting is open to everyone, so we encourage you all to attend!

Of course, we will have our usual Sunday gaming session before (and possibly after) the AGM.

If you would like to have a particular topic discussed at the AGM, please let the committee know via Mattermost or e-mail, so we can put it on the agenda.

Yet another year has passed, and with the end of 2023 approaching, access to the CERN sites will be restricted as usual during the CERN Annual Closure from December 23 to January 7 inclusive.

We wish you a good start of 2024, and we are looking forward to seeing you again in the next year as of January 14.

Do you play pen-and-paper Role-Playing Games (RPGs) like Dungeons and Dragons—or are you merely curious?

The Games Club is hosting a social get-together for RPG players, potential players and Game Masters after work on Wednesday 6 September at 18h00 in CERN Restaurant 1. This will be a chance to meet each other, chat about games and possibly to gather together one or two new RPG groups. Everyone is welcome, even if you have never played before.

If you have any questions or comments, you can post on the RPG channel on Mattermost.

Dear Gamers,

This year's annual general meeting (AGM) will be on Sunday April 3rd at 17:00 in the B.40 cafeteria. The purpose of the meeting is to report on the status of the club, elect a new committee for 2022, and discuss the future of the club. The meeting is open to everyone, so I encourage you all to attend! In particular, I'd like to encourage you to attend if you've recently joined / are interested in joining the club. There will be an option to participate remotely.

If you would like to submit a motion to be discussed, please could you either reply directly to this message or send an email to games.club@cern.ch so that we can make sure it is added to the agenda. If you would like to run for a committee position then there is no need to let us know in advance.

Cheers, Steve (on behalf of the committee)

Good news! With CERN now in GREEN level, clubs can resume their on-site activities. R1 is still closed on weekends, so we will instead meet in the cafeteria of Building 40. It has a hot food/drinks service, so you'll be able to have lunch/dinner there if you so desire. See the map below for directions.

If you want to join and don't have access to CERN, please sign up in CERN Indico. Once your registration is confirmed, you will get an e-mail with a temporary access pass.

Everyone is welcome - you don't need to be a member of the club to join in. There's also no need to let us know in advance (unless you need site access), just swing by at any time.

Let us know if there are any specific games you would like to play (since we need to get them out of the locker whilst R1 is open). The Mattermost board games channel is a good place to do this.
