March 2 Event

We had an excellent turn-out. Twelve people met at Brian and Shelly's house. We ate a quick meal of lasagna, caesar salad, crusty bread, beer, wine, and soda before moving on to the main event. Games played included Starfarers of Catan, Taj Mahal, Manhattan, High Society (x2), Stone Age, Tobago, Penguin Pile-Up (x2) and something that I didn't see (?). Space was a bit tight but it wasn't much of an issue once everyone settled in. Puppy Bean was a good dog (though she tried to quietly make off with a ziploc full of Starfarer bits).

This was our seventh event since the group launched on November 11, 2009. It looks like we have a good group going.

Game on!

February 16 Game Night

We had another fun evening at Cranbrook lodge. It always seems more fun to be playing games when there are others in the room who are studying!

We had eight people in attendance, two Brians, Paul, Dagon, Anthony, Jeff, Anu, and Soren. We started off with Saint Petersburg (a squeaker win for Jeff!) and Caylus Magna Carta (I don't know who won). Saint Pete finished first, so we played a few hands of Falling while waiting for the other game to finish. Then we played a few more hands of Falling with the whole group. Then we switched and played a few rounds of Werewolf. Anthony and Dagon had to leave, so we finished up with a six player game of Himalaya, with a decisive "Brain" victory (not yours truly, I finished next to last -- thanks Paul!).
