Played at Stephan's place. SIMPK. Before the games, we go to the Tide & Boar Brewery, where we eat very well (and a varied diet too: charcuterie plate, Newfoundland style fish & chips, big burger, Buffalo wings, and a salad). Then at the HFG we discuss air fryers.

Notes

Between Two Castles of Mad King Ludwig Stephan Reebs Stephan and Mike tie for the winning score of 65 (their common castle). Stephan wins the tie-breaker, as his castle with Kevin (79 points) is better than Mike's castle with Ian (66 points).
Evolution Stephan Reebs Stephan's 53 points barely beat Pascal's 52. Mike experiences a brief life as a carnivore, and Ian has a short go at meat-eating too, but they remain rather lean.
Tsuro Kevin Caron, Stephan Reebs It's Stephan's night, as he wins again, this time alongside Kevin on the very last square.

Played at Stephan's place. KISPM. Watching live sports, is it worth it? How about live chess? How about collecting food socks? What is a trucker's hat? What is the mesh for?

Notes

Voyages Pascal Werlberger, Stephan Reebs The co-winning total, 94 points, should not be allowed to count towards a game record, as one more round than allowed was played by mistake.
Voyages Stephan Reebs The marauder version this time, and Stephan's crew is as bloodthirsty as the first time around. 75 points.
Camel up Ian Stewart Ian correctly guesses both the winner and the loser of the overall race, and he easily triumphs with 32 points after an unusually short game (three rounds).

Played at Stephan's place. PKSM. In an apparent effort to limit the competition, Stephan forgets to send an invitation this week. PKM still show up, allowing us to play 4-player games.

Notes

Wingspan Stephan Reebs Most of the end-of-rounds goals have to do with eggs, and Stephan likes to lay eggs (in the game, that is), so he wins with 78 points, 3 more than Pascal.
Karuba Pascal Werlberger Pascal gets all four of his explorers to reach their destination, and his 22 points beat Mike by 2 points.

Played at Stephan's place. IMPASK. We talk about weird sports and physical activities, inspired by Netflix"s Physical 100.

Notes

Codenames Alain Haché, Kevin Caron, Pascal Werlberger 2-1. The last two games are decided on the last turn with the black tile being picked (though the tile being black did not matter as much as it being wrong, for the other team had only one tile left to guess).
Tsuro Pascal Werlberger Ian launches his new meeple, which does not prevent him from being the first ejected player. Pascal survives with only one square left.
