Also known as | Saturday Night Game Night, Friday Night Game Night, Friday Night Firefight, TTT Night |
Game Night (Or see Also Known As) is an established and schedule night of the week that Bimmers get together to play either a random or established game together.
History
As part of the BMW 3.0 overhaul, AlexanderDeLarge suggested two new features to the group: #lets-play-games and a weekly Trouble in Terrorist Town game night. Along with that, the idea was also floated to have other nights throughout the week (mostly weekend) for organized gaming for the group. The set of ideas was a massive success and breathed new life into a group that had been hitting a rough skid leading up to the Wonka Uprising.
However, Game Nights started to decline to September of 2018 when football season rolled around and Taylor was less available on weekends.
Niche Night
The first Friday of every month as part of the original slate of game nights, was scheduled to play weird or obscure games that people probably would never have tried.
The first Niche Night, while unofficial, was the mass EYE server night where 10~ Bimmers all got on an E.Y.E. server and it turned into a massive shitshow. The first real official Niche Night, whoever, was Super Mario 64 Online, which actually ended up being a rather fun experience, although from a technical standpoint it was a nightmare
The second Niche Night was VRChat, which devolved quickly into a waifu skin picking simulator. After this week, Niche Night mostly died out because of the aforementioned football season.
TTT
TTT (Trouble in Terrorist Town) was the very first game chosen for game night at the insistence of ADL.
Secret Hitler
Secret Hitler was a long time party game of BMW, dating back to October of 2016 when the Bimmers played it in Table Top Simulator.
Wildlands Wednesday
Another ADL pick, Ghost Recon Wildlands had long been considered something the group wasn't interested in. However due to changes made of the years, it turned out to be the perfect fit, with many Wednesdays being so popular that more than one group was required to accommodate all the people who showed up.
Friday Night Firefight
Friday Night Firefight were specific Game Nights where the group would choose different FPS games to play, such as Insurgency.
