HSNM Events Calendar
Codenames is a fun 2-team word game that's a bit like Password but much more interesting and enjoyable for both the game itself as well as socializing with teammates. Years ago I used to play the table-top version but playing online is much better!
You can play using your computer or your phone.
Time: 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm MT
(Optional) Register in Meetup:
https://www.meetup.com/group-hsnm/events/
(Computer steps: Tap "Log in" at top right, log in, scroll down to "Events" list, find the "Codenames Online" you plan to attend, tap on it, then tap Attend Online.)
Players that are new to Codenames are very welcome.
You can take a look at it here: codenames.game
And you can practice here: codenames.game/daily
But it's much easier to learn by doing and we're happy to teach.
We have 5 committed Codenamers already. The minimum to play is 4 (2 per team) and virtually no maximum. So we'd like more players! This event is simply opening it up to all you humanists. We hope to reach at least 3 per team (total of 6).
Start here:
We use Google Meet to communicate while we're playing.
Here is the link: https://meet.google.com/izo-rfpw-cwq
If you're new to Google Meet, I recommend spending about 10 minutes ahead of start time to prepare and test your microphone and speakers. Video isn't needed.
If you're on my invitation email list:
You'll receive an email with two links sometime in the afternoon of the event. One is the link to the Google Meet meeting which never changes. The other is the link to the game itself which changes every week.
Those not receiving my email reminders:
You're totally welcome to join us. It's easy!
Just join the Google Meet meeting using this link:
https://meet.google.com/izo-rfpw-cwq
Then, at game-time, I'll provide the link for the game itself.
To be added to the email invitation list:
Send a request to my email address: gstelle@gmail.com
Fun addition: Add your own words!
Once you see how the game works you're welcome to tell me words you'd like to see appear in the grid. I've been doing this already. That's how words like "SWAMP COOLER" and "HUMANIST" got there!
