Ran a game for eight players over the weekend at the con in northern California, and took some pictures
http://s893.photobucket.com/albums/ac139/captainsanta/strange%20aeons/I had them play one round with the other person across the table on a 6ft by 4 ft board, and one multiplayer round of "Devil's hop yard" with the Lurkers setting up at the center column, and letting them divide up their 60 pt pool as they wished.
Went pretty well. I gave them each a copy of the short demo rules and they took charge of their own game. Fortunate, because having worked the day, and been up since 5:30 am, my brain was kind of shutting down....
