Board Game Arena

One of the best features of belonging to a Local Gaming Group is that you can meet new people & learn new games....maybe games that you've heard/read about but haven't had the opportunity to try (without purchasing). BGA has a special opportunity to meet ALL OF THOSE NEEDS if they can find people willing to be trainers/teachers?

Would love to help others learn the games I love (to create more interest & players...cough, Tobago). My thought would be that when someone includes a game in their interest (but games played count is low/zero) - they could see when 'instructors/trainers' are logged in and request a 'learning game'. I've already done this a couple of times but thought it would be great to make it 'official'.

What say ye, BGA?

There already exists a group "Game Tutors" who are generally willing to teach new players the games. It is difficult to pair them up with people wanting to learn, though.
