Power Grid |
Alain Haché
|
Close game: everybody builds 15 houses, all of them powered except for Ian with 14. Alain wins the tiebreaker with 77 dollars left. Pascal is a close second, being only 2 bucks short of building and powering 16 houses. |

MISKPA. Happy birthday Alain (tomorrow), though he misses the first game because he’s dining out with his union colleagues on the proletariat’s dime. Before the games we discuss the various rules for Carcassonne. After the games we discuss Mike’s underwater camera and its waterproofing test tonight in one of Stephan’s buckets.

SIMKAP. Ian delivers another 3D-printed component for Mike’s underwater camera. Pascal brings gingerbread cookies. Kevin brings a Christmas beer. Mike and Stephan don’t really want to talk about chess. Alain chills.

All eyes are turned to Ian because he's having a very good game, but in the end his 81 points are beaten by master birder Pascal's 83 points. |
