Played at other. Played at MDG (Mansion of drinks and games) in Shediac

Game played

Winners

Notes
Machi Koro Ian Stewart Ian wins with the classical "Ranch - Cheese Factory" strategy (including rolling some nice sevens) and the McCafe opening.
Machi Koro Mike Gerdov Mike applies Ian's winning strategy and adds some high likely seven rolls for the win!
Perudo Ian Stewart Ian in the showdown with 5 to 1 dices has to suffer one loss with 3 aces on his side, but finally finishes Kevin with 4 dice left.
Settlers of Catan Kevin Caron Kevin wins with the non-ideal setup of 4 players with Mike suffering badly from a Vatikan-size territory with no room for expansion. Some pity-points from the pope for Mike for the worst Settlers disaster ever.

Well, so much for the "home turf advantage" hypothesis!

Yep, looks like Pascals Mansion does not have board game aura accumulated yet. Probably more games have to be played there, before the house starts to have home field advantage effect.

I bought this game. Yep, another game favouring biologists, but it sounded like fun. https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/130882/cardline-animals

By the way, I want to put it on record; basic Machi Koro game is broken with Cheese and Cafe strategy. We need some house rules to re-balance it, or maybe play expansions.
