Nick: -9

Diamant

Six of us went in search of Rubies and Diamonds in a great game, which got pretty close as no-one could really be sure who was ahead ...

Nick: 35
Jason: 32

Bang!

A five player game upstairs while two longer games (Ys and Caylus) were playing downstairs

Martin    -    Outlaw    -    First to Die
Tim    -    Outlaw    -    Second to Die
Tracey    -    Deputy    -    Third to Die
Jon    -    Renegade    -    Last to Die
Jason    -    Sheriff    -    Lone survivor and Winner

 

Ys

A great four player game of Ys. The game was new to Tansy and Sam.

Sam: 94
Tansy: 93
Mark: 82
Sue: 75       

 

Caylus

Not surprisingly, we're still pulling Caylus out at every opportunity.

This game was new to all apart from Nick. Mitch managed to build the Cathedral for a massive 25 points, but just took a little too long to get there, and the points gained couldn't quite outweigh the few rounds of scoring nothing to get them!

The scores are a little approximate, as we failed to record them in an effort to pack up quickly (it was late!)

Nick: 68
Mitch: 62
Becky: 61
Cat: 60
Kev: 51

 

Another great evening of games at the shop. Thanks all for coming.
