We had two newcomers (Jenn and Karl) to boost our attendance to six this week, with Alex, Tim, Mike and myself rounding out the list of attendees. We managed to get in three games: Village (with the new Village Inn expansion), Carcassonne: New World and Hoity Toity. A few details follow.
The Village-Inn was a new experience for the four of us who had played Village before. Mike made the most use of the new stuff (the Brewery and the Inn) but it turned out to be the tried and true that worked out for Alex, who came through with the win, mainly through serving lots of customers at the Market. Final score counts: Alex 58, Tim 45, John 45, Mike 44. (Tim took second on the "most customers served" tiebreaker.)
By this time Jenn and Karl had arrived, and they came prepared with a two-player game that was completed just when Village was finishing up It was a two-player Carcassonne expansion, called New World, and Jenn came away the winner, 153 to 133 for Karl.
All six of us joined in for the final game of the evening, the art-collecting game, Hoity Toity, which barely finished in time. It was an incredibly close finish, all three players within three spaces of each other. Alex came away with the win, narrowly over Jenn, who had the best set of art (14 pieces!) after pilfering three on the next-to-last turn. Remaining order of finish was John, Tim, Karl and Mike, who closed up alot of ground with some fine detective work.
