"Trying to exploit the area for purposes beyond Spirit Beast-related stuff now would be considered abuse." -- Auchand

I was just getting ready to ask about this... :)

No, seriously. What about Siegery battles? Lots of people have full sets, in collector cases, even. Just like Magic nerdboys you make fun of at the gaming store.

Any chance of there being separate lounges, or whatever, for different games? (I've never been to Talondown, so I have no idea what it looks like.)
- Main entry foyer, this is the arrival area, maybe where the snacks are located.
- Spirit Beast Battle Arena, this is where the MC is doing his reverberating "SUNDAY!" announcments (a la monster truck jam).
- A room for Siegery.
- A room for Darts.
- Go nuts, and have a room for <any other mechanics-supported game that there are in-game props for>, too.

Go ahead and expand the functionality of "bring players together to PLAY GAMES in-game", just reduce/forbid the function that people were taking advantage of.
