PSIMKA. Back to a full crew now that Pascal's sailing season is over. Hurricane Dorian dumped 121 mm of rain on Moncton last weekend, but the HFG is fine and we don't bother to play Category 5.

Deception: Murder in Hong Kong |
Stephan Reebs
|
For once Ian is not the murderer; he's the clue giver instead! But he and his fellow investigators do not catch murderer Stephan with his machete and his jacket. |

Stephan is the murderer again, but he errs in choosing to kill his victim with ice skates and leaving a computer mouse at the scene of the crime. Clue giver Mike and the rest of the gang catch him fairly quickly. |

MAISK. If you count this week and last week, we played five games of Deception, making sure everyone was the clue giver once. Guess what: for the four games that Ian was not the clue giver, he ended up being the murderer. What are the odds of that?

Mike leads for most of the game, but in the end it is Alain with two dice left against Ian. |

|
It's fair to say that, of all of us, Ian is the most likely to hate being the murderer, because of all the deceiving and stuff. So of course he ends up being the murderer and he and his weapon and evidence get fairly quickly unmasked by Alain, with Kevin giving the clues. |

Stephan gets accused three times in a row, despite his vehement protests of innocence. He is, indeed, innocent, so it falls to him to correctly guess the weapon and evidence of the real murderer (Ian, who else?) from clues given by Mike. |

There are no winners in Durak, only one loser. We play three games, and Stephan, Mike and Alain each lose one game. So let's give one point to each of the two non-losers. |
