Seven attendees tonight (Don, Doug, Greg, Pete P, Clayton, Ben and myself) and we spent most of the time playing a couple of longer games. A quick game of R-Eco was won by Pete with an excellent score of 15, followed by Don and Doug at 9, me at 6 and Greg (who was new to the game) trailing with -1. By this time Ben and Clayton had arrived and we split into two groups for the rest of the evening; at one table, Pete, Ben, Doug and Greg played Arkham Horror (which Pete had brought) and, a few minutes before closing time, the players won on Doug's turn after Ben had gone insane (in game terms, of course). Sorry, don't know the game well enough to provide more details.
The other table had Clayton, Don and I playing a game which Don had brought, Wealth of Nations. It was the first play for Clayton, second for Don, and third or fourth for me. Well, so much for experience, as Clayton dominated the energy market and rode it to a decisive win, 149 points to 101 for Don and just 74 for yours truly, who was saddled with more loans and didn't have that much to show for it.
Just learned this past week that there will be a big push for boardgaming in the libraries as part of National Games Day, November 15. Locally, the library here in Laurel has a flyer out inviting gamers to attend on two Monday night sessions, starting 7 PM on November 10 and December 15. Those of you who don't live near Laurel are advised to contact your local library management to find out what may be planned as part of this promotion.
