Get in on the ground floor at Sunday Game Night

Yeah, it’s basically like Uber for board games. Pretty much just like that. Uh, but backwards? I don’t bring the board games to you. You bring yourself to the board games and you also bring food or beer with you and then we play board games. So I guess in this analogy I’m the passenger and you’re the driver of the Uber car. Board games as a service. We’ve been in private beta for years now. And then I put the food you brought on the grill plus the food I already had and then we eat it and we drink the beer. We’re still playing the board games at this point. You just wouldn’t even believe the synergies. No, there’s not an app. Really there’s basically no software component at all. But uh we uh “leverage existing technological deployments to deliver attendance confirmations”. Mainly text and email, yeah. Well, you don’t really get to choose when you come over, it’s basically always Sunday at 5pm at my apartment. Scalable? You betcha, it scales really well all the way up to like 14 users. Maybe 12. No tipping, that’s another way we’re exactly the same as Uber but for board games. Oh is this your floor cool cool hey I should mention we’re looking for investors—

Oh yeah thanks for asking basically it’s a VC firm but inverted, you know it’s one thing to say you’re “disrupting” your industry or whatever but like, who disrupts the disruptors, you know? Haha thanks, we actually have that up on the wall in huge letters, thanks. Yeah so like investing in a lot of businesses and planning for like 90% of them to flop, that’s not how we do it, we– I mean, I say “we,” but it’s mostly me and my, you know, part-time co-founder, Helen– anyway, we innovate by actually investing nothing, just sort of being near board games and– I mentioned it’s board games, right– anyway, we haven’t totally figured out the profit phase yet, but we have a big profile coming out in Geekwire tomorrow, yeah, super exciting, there’s actually a party for it tomorrow night if you want to come, I mean it supposedly starts at 5pm but I won’t even be showing up until 9:30, you know how it is.

We’ve got projections, sure. Our sausage counts are already at capacity and we’re expecting to reel in other high-desirability investments, you know, veggies, chips n’ dip, etc., depending on the market of course…
