In Ascension, sometimes marriage is in the cards

From Justin Gary, the developer of Ascension:

Back at the end of September, I got an e-mail from Alan Gerding with an unusual subject line. “An Ascension Marriage Proposal.” Intrigued, I opened it up and learned that Alan wanted to propose to his girlfriend, Crystol Shelton, using the game they love to play together–Ascension! We jumped at the opportunity, and quickly set to work making it happen.

See the results in the above video. You’d think he wouldn’t hit her with a Noxious Soul first. What a jerk.

    I’m never playing tabletop game with this Alan guy. He obviously rigged the deck and then posted video evidence online for all to see. Wait, did I miss something???

    Yeah, yeah. But did they win?

    This is quite possibly one of the most romantic geek proposals I’ve seen/heard about.
