This states that you are not allowed to be near the top of the table unless you have thumbs.
It is mostly an excuse to yell at the cats when they get curious.

And they fit right next to their decks and are easy to grab and pickup.

I believe we came up with this house rule when we played Firefly just prior to its departure. We realized that it was cumbersome to play because the board and cards took up so much room we had to work around the bits just to play, which sucked and began to kill the mood,
My table is 5' x 3.5' without the leaf, 5' square with it. If I need 25 square feet to play a game, I'm just not doing it.
Thoights?
We may have the exact same table. Same dimensions anyway.
Generally, I agree. I can sit 6 people comfortably and squeak by with 8, but if the game board is taking up 4' x 4' on my 5' x 5' table then it doesn't matter how many I can sit because nobody is going to have any room to put their stuff and being crowded with your bits is no fun at all.
HOWEVER. Some games are worth it. I will totally grab as much random furniture as possible to slap-dash a table-looking surface together if it means I get to play an awesome game. That's a pretty short list though.
