Alright everyone, with the recent success of the Game Nights held during October, I've decided to relaunch Game Night as a regular weekly event once again! 

Every Sunday, a SSMB Game Night will be held where SSMB members can come along and play the games that are on offer that week! With the relaunch, there's going to be some minor changes.

Firstly, I've decided to make Super Smash Bros Ultimate a mainstay game during the first event. It's been a consistent hit during Game Night, and tends to be the game that most people come along to play, so Game Night from now on will kick off with Smash Ultimate at 9pm BST/4pm EST!

Following Smash is the Encore game. The game chosen for the Encore event will rotate out every week with other games, such as Overwatch, Crash Team Racing, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Splatoon 2, and other such games. Free to Play games are also planned to be regularly rotated into the event to offer everyone a chance to join in! The new Encore time will be 12:30am BST/7:30pm EST.

Other than that, things are pretty much the same. Let me know if you're interested in playing, and I'll add you to the organisation PM where we make sure everyone's good to go before the night starts.

Finally, it's been decided that Game Night for the time being is going to be moved to Sunday nights, as to not conflict with Motobug streams on Saturdays. That said, I'll be keeping an eye to see how the new day goes for everyone, and can switch it to Friday, potentially if need be. We're also starting an hour earlier to expand the main event! So instead of the main event lasting two hours, it'll last three hours! (9pm - 12am BST/4pm - 7pm EST)

Anyways, when is the relaunch kicking off? Sunday November 15th 2020! From then on, we'll be doing Game Nights every Sunday, so be sure to keep an eye on this topic for that! 

So, with that all said, that just leaves this week's games! 

Mainstay Game: Super Smash Bros Ultimate - 9pm BST/4pm EST

Encore Game: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - 12:30am BST/7:30pm EST

As usual, let me know if you wanna play!

I can join in for Smash, at least. Sadly can't play Mario Kart at the moment.

This week for Game Night Encore at 12:30am GMT/7:30pm EST, we're bringing back an old classic - Pretend You're Xyzzy! 

For anyone who hasn't played it before, Pretend You're Xyzzy is a free to play browser game based on the popular card game - Cards Against Humanity - in which you're given a hand of cards with various phrases, while the CPU throws out a card with a sentence with a blank statement, and you use your cards to make the funniest sentence you can, decided by a judge who changes every hand. 

This one's an old classic, and it can run on practically anything, so be sure to come along and try it out with us! Let me know if you wanna play! 

[Ryannumber1gamer]

We're giving Pretend You're Xyzzy (Cards Against Humanity Online) a second round this week, as well as our usual Smash session at 9pm GMT/4pm EST! Let me know if you wanna play!

[Ryannumber1gamer]

This week's Encore game at 8:30pm EST/12:30am GMT is Sketchful.io - A free to play browser game playable on PC, mobile and tablet. It's essentially just like Pictionary, where you're given a word to try and draw and everyone else has to try guess what it is. Let me know if you wanna play!

[Ryannumber1gamer]

To celebrate the new map added to the game, this week's Encore game is Among Us! Let me know if you wanna play!
