Concordia Mike Gerdov Mike and Ian both finish with 85 points, but Mike gets the 7-point bonus for finishing the game, so his winning score is 92. He says his secret is Russian-style annexation.

Carcassonne Alain Haché We play with the river variant and the Inns & Cathedrals expansion; Alain and Mike are in a close race for first place, and it is Alain who wins with 68 points.
Tsuro Mike Gerdov Alain leaves to go watch his beloved Canadiens try to win game II of the Stanley Cup, which opens the way for Mike to re-assert his supremacy. Two tiles left.

1

Played at Stephan's place. MISK. Pascal's absence indicates that the sailing season has started. Mike brings vegan brownies that are surprisingly yummy. Kevin brings a Japanese game that we try for the first time.

6

Played at Stephan's place. SKIMPA. Alain brings Smartass and proceeds to kick our asses twice. Then for good measure he justifies once again his high rating on boardgamearena for Category 5, completing the hat trick for the night. His beloved Canadiens, who just swept their series against the Jets, are inspiring him!
