We didn't realize at the time, but the 29th of July was Richard Irving's last meeting with us, since "The Man" let him return home to Salinas. (Say "hi" to John Steinbeck for me!)
Am I a man or am I a muppet? If I'm a muppet then I'm a very manly muppet!
The guys taught Stacy the #1 game on the Geek...and Richard L was nice enough to keep Stacy out of last place while Rich I & John fought to the last point.
Richard I 46 John 45 Stacy 38 Richard L much less...

I've realized that the last two times I taught this game, I've taught one rule wrong. Sadly, it's an important rule. The player with the least workers in hand does not pay ANYTHING on pay day... whoops. (Let's try it again with the right rule.)

Rich L's "no soup" was a bust... and Rich I managed to soak up lots of yummy stuff. I was surprised at how well the game worked w/3 players - I've always played it with more.
Hey Mark, you need to leave the "Add item" option open on these. Steve G. and I did a late night, after-the-kids-are-in-bed-but-don't-feel-like-driving, game night. We played:
STARCRAFT TBG
I won with Overmind Zerg vs. Steve G's Tassadar Protoss. I was able to build three bases for special victory in Stage III. I don't think Tassadar has a chance against zerg in two player. Protoss build too slow and the 2p game is too short to out tech the zerg.
SHEAR PANIC
We tied but I won the tie breaker of mutton buttons on the side board. It's a really cute but deeply strategic game.
NACHO LOCO
Advanced Uno. Not bad with a cool puzzle aspect and VP. I was able to break the sudden death tie.
THE DOWNFALL OF POMPEII
Steve G. toasted most of my guys and he won by two I think.
