Sometimes it's good to step into the frame and talk about the monster. It makes even Godzilla approachable, people sized, harmless.
Gaming is intense. I mean, sit someone down to build a cute farm in Agricola and suddenly they discover they're in a tightening vice & freak a bit. So this item is for your stories of freak outs big and small, your's and others, and how this has formed your thoughts about gaming, about people, about yourself.

Button Men is by far my most played game ever. Sure, the majority of those games were played online, but I have a bag full of buttons at home, and more dice than any one person should own. I like the quickness of this game and how it teaches you about math and probability while being wildly entertaining. The rules are now free along with a set of cards of the basic characters to print out instead of using buttons, so everyone should at least give it a try.

This is a Lunch Money set for Button Men. I received it in a little celophane bag; the rule insert states the catalog number as AG3333 and "Hope & Chastity" but inside are 6 buttons: Hope, Chastity, Faith, Temperance, Charity and Prudence. All are in clean unblemished condition. Based on the Atlast Games website, it looks like this is all 3 sets (pairs) of Lunch Money Button Men (but only 1 rules insert).
(Image from BGG gallery shows 4 of the 6 LM BM.)

Another cheapass game recently released for free through the site. I have to say I like this one, as do the kids who helped me test it. It's fast, fun, and quite fiendish. May need to do up some formulas with my own art or have kids make their own characters using die points, but that makes it all the more fun!
ACCEPTED (Free rules and formulas, easy to adapt and expand BY KIDS!)

This game gained a quick following after one of the major gaming conventions of 1999. It features several characters, represented on actual stickpin buttons, that each have a unique allowance of polyhedral dice. These dice endow each character with fairly unique combat abilities. Players roll the dice against each other and take their opponents' dice as casualties. The object of the game is take out the most die 'sides' during the combat. It's quite simple, quite inventive, and deeper than it would seem at first.

And next to Brawl, in another bag, 7 2-packs of these for $1.99.
Another random game I'd never heard of...that won an Origins award.
All righty.
Might be the first 6 CAG + 1 XXXenophile pack.
Anyway, just a random-ass find.
EDIT: Edited because "random-ass find" has a whole different meaning from "random ass find".

Feature: Where's the Off Button???
Problem: So if you're subscribed to a guild, you can't UNsubscribe from any thread! When you look at a guild thread, the button says "Subscribe", implying that you're NOT subscribed, but you are.
Solution: Your guild subscription should work like a game subscription. You get a single notification for a forum thread, but you then have to subscribe to the thread to get further updates for that thread.
Edit: This is merely a preferences issue. Oops.

This game looks so great on the iphone and plays so well. Everything about it is perfect. It even had bluetooth multiplayer available when it came out. Sadly, the developer James sold the rights to is uninterested in persuing this fabulous port with what is now basic features like retina, gamecenter and ipad support. And it's been two years.
The dice rolled onto the floor and there's noone to pick them up - Abandonware.

I have some sort of addiction to Button Men, and will readily play this great and quick 2-player dice game. The game is played in best-of-5 game matches, but even then it rarely takes more than 5-10 minutes to play an entire match. The game is math heavy, and knowing how to calculate odds will definitely give you an edge. The game's two original sets from Cheapass Games were just made available free as print and play, so please give it a try!
