Pandemic, or something else?

Pandemic. It's pretty easy to run.

I'd be up for that. But also willing to give the spot to someone who hasn't played.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Ditto.

Sounds like there are no takers. What role does everybody want?

I dibs Medic this time. Less worrying about where to go - just run right into the fire.

I'd like either Quarantine Specialist or Operations Expert.

Excellent! The brains trust is interested in either Quarantine Specialist or Dispatcher this game. If Megan goes QS we'll go Dispatcher, and if you take Ops Expert we'll do the QS.

Well, I know last time you said the Quarantine Specialist looked interesting so I'll take Ops Expert and leave the QS to the brains trust.
