November Game Day

November’s theme is oldies but goodies - games that are at least 10 years old.  We played India Rails first.  This was the closest game we had ever seen - and we ran into more tricky rules questions than ever before as well.  Three players connected all their cities and exceeded $250 on the same turn.  The difference between first and third was $9!

Secondly we played part of a game of Circus Maximus.  Now this is readily an oldie!  It brought back a lot of memories for Marty and me.  We may have to try this again before we slide back down the rules memory curve.

A reminder to those who are playing that there is a BSW session on Monday evening, 11/18.  I still need some votes.

There is no FTF game day scheduled in December.  There will be an async on-line session in December.  If you aren’t a regular on-line player and would wish to join us, please e-mail me.  I will start the arrangements for this session soon.

January is a tough month to schedule, as many of us are on vacation.  The game day will be 1/25.  I think I know everyone’s status for this date except for Don.  The theme for January will be new games (really new, or just new to us).  There is also a BSW session scheduled for January.  I think we will try to have it early in the month as an offset to the late FTF session.  More to follow regarding this.

To those who I won’t see until 2014, happy Thanksgiving, our best wishes for the holiday season, and safe travels!
