In a fit of fake unexplainable rage, we replaced Eric with a child. Kiwi, bP, and Paxton join around the table to sell dinosaurs for cash in what certainly won't end in a horrible horrible theme park accident and major motion picture. We played Tiny Epic Dinosaurs from Gamelyn Games and designed by Scott Almes. Paxton and Kiwi only go off track half a dozen times in the first ten minutes, so it should be good, but don't worry Eric will be back to 'keep us together' next time.
