2015.03.05 Belfort Birthday Bash

 

5 Players: G, W, M, S, K
Game: Belfort
Location: G
Choice: K

Game One:

After 2 Seasons: W (23 pts), G (19 pts), K (16 pts), S (15 pts) & M (15 pts)

 

Final Tally:
The game was called after 2 Seasons because of the late hour. The scores of all players were close enough that it wasn't clear who would've won had the game been played out. W had the highest score when the game was called so he was declared tonight's winner.

 

Notes:

• K's birthday!
• J's flight home got cancelled, forcing him to miss tonight's game.
• W was awarded the key to the city of Belfort.
• 1st time playing Belfort for M.
• There was a late start (9pm).
• There was some slow playing by all in the first season due to either unfamiliarity with the game mechanics or forgetfulness.
• It was generally agreed that it would be a good idea to play this game again soon and that we could play it much faster now that five players are very familiar with the mechanics.
• W chooses next week and it's likely that he will choose Belfort. Consider this fair warning J and watch this if u can spare 8 minutes; it'll help.
• Si will be away in Jamaica next week.

Gaming Weekend:

• the feeling among players was that the April weekend (17-19) looked the most promising and decided that we would ask Si to check with the cottage owners to secure that date.
• everyone agreed that it was very unfortunate that not everybody's schedule could be accommodated for but there was not one single weekend that worked for everyone - someone had to be left out!
• there was also discussion of a game day in late May or June that might partially make up to Sc for not being able to participate in an April gaming weekend.
