Greetings

In a week where a Japanese man broke a Guinness World Record by running 328 feet in 14.55 seconds on his hands and feet, where a bodybuilder known as the "Steel Man of India" broke a Guinness world record by holding the Hercules Pillars—each of which weighed 575.4 pounds—for a full 60 seconds, and where a University of California study determined that wild chimpanzees consume the equivalent of 2 alcoholic drinks per day by eating fermented fruit, we're still talking games here on Meeple Mountain.

Enter to Win!
