Game Notes:

• Draft setup with extra card house rule
• One too many Minor Improvements were dealt out, leading to confusion
• K wins tie breaker: not sure why
• G played Clay Worker on first turn and used it effectively (unlike Z who played Clay Worker on two previous Agricola games)
• W hated having to go first
• Kept running out of grain and food and needing to use the chits because K was hoarding both
• K hoarded starting player in later rounds to max out Broom 
• W had an fence/animals/building materials engine that looked unstoppable at mid-game
• "How in the hell did W not win?"
• Cottage weekend: April 29-30 works for most members.
• J checking with L and Z checking his lead as back up

W's animal farm
