text: Tim: Hey, you have a few minutes?
  Joe: Sure, what's up?
  Tim: I'm thinking about inviting a few people from work over and I kinda thought that maybe some boardgames would be a cool idea.
  Tim: And I wanted to consult the expert on the matter :)
  Joe: As you know I'm always happy to share my expertise with anyone willing to listen. You will just need to stop me when I get too wound up :D
  Tim: Haha :) Ok, So I know you ran the local club - any tips how to organize a newbie gaming evening? And what games to bring?
  Joe: yeah, sure - just a few general tips :)
  Joe: Start games before you start drinking :) And don't bring any game that is either over-complicated, requires too much time to explain, or god forbid encourages direct conflict - you know, the plotting-scheming stuff. So no Game of Thrones :)
  Joe: Or alternatively you can chose some cooperative games - like Arkham Horror, Robinson Crusoe, Pandemic
  Tim: Got it :D 
  Joe: Also would be great to know what theme they all like - if there is one. And if not then there are some 'vanilla' games - like Codenames or Catan. Any idea what they might be into? 
  Tim: Not really - there are some guys who I know like sci-fi and comic books, but no idea about the girls... 
  Joe: The best way - just talk with them - might be surprised by their tastes and experiences. Maybe some of them are already into gaming? There are nerds in every walk of life :)
  Tim: Yeah, I know, all too well :)
  Tim: Anyway, thanks for the tips - co-op games sound like a good idea for a start.
  Joe: yeah, and then if the idea sticks you can roll out the big guns :)
  Tim: Will do that :)
target: Tim wants to organise a board games night for his colleagues. Joe has some good ideas and tips on where to start.
