Attendance of ten for this week: Ben, Mike, Alex, John B, Neville, Greg, Doug, Helen, Rembert and myself, no newcomers to the club this time around. Four games were played: Piece o Cake, Seasons, Poseidon and Timeline.
Piece o Cake was the quick warmup game while waiting for everyone to show up. Five of us took part. Final scores: John W 32, Mike 29, Alex 25, John B 23, Ben 21. First one-two for the host/co-host combination in quite some time.
We then split into two groups for the two main games of the evening, which were Seasons and Poseidon. Seasons was a four-player, won by Neville who scored a nice come from behind victory as Greg, the early leader, plummeted to last. Final score counts were Neville 115, John W 103, Doug 100, Greg 76.
The four of us were joined by Rembert for a couple of quick games of Timeline. Greg and I tied for the win in the first game, each going five for five. I also managed to get five in a row the second game as well, obviously the best I have ever done at the game, and I have to credit some fairly easy questions plus a few lucky guesses never hurts.
The five-player Poseidon game (Ben, Mike, Alex, John B and Helen) never quite made it to the finish. No word on who was winning, but the game was picked up around the start of the final stage when the larger boats became available.
News from John B regarding a special session of the Beltsville club: Saturday March 16th, from 9 AM to 4 PM, emphasis on teaching gateway games to attract newcomers to the hobby.
