It has been suggested that we should deliberately only bring one or two standards, so that we're forced to play some new games. In that case we'll need to vote on which these will be, and make an attempt to at least skim-read the new game rules in advance so it's not a total mystery when we go through them on the day.

Standards

It has been suggested that we should deliberately only bring one or two standards, so that we're forced to play some new games. In that case we'll need to vote on which these will be, and make an attempt to at least skim-read the new game rules in advance so it's not a total mystery when we go through them on the day.
