Notes

Codenames Alain Haché, Ian Stewart, Pascal Werlberger 2-1. Fun fact: in one game, the word “note” is given as a clue for “cliff”, and in the next game the other team uses the word “cliff” as a clue for “note”.

Played at Stephan's place. PISKM. It’s gadget night: a 125X gear multiplier from Teymouth Plastics; a portable UV disc illuminator from Mike; and a made-in-Austria spring-loaded bottle opener from Pascal, complete with a nice wooden exterior. Thanks Ian for the popcorn.

Played at Stephan's place. MASPIK. The highlight of the night is Alain showing up disguised as a hippie from the 70s, complete with afro, tinted glasses, moustache, golden necklace and bracelet, and flowery shirt. Awesome anticipation of Halloween (scary!).

Notes

Oltre Mare Ian Stewart Stephan sits aside and teaches an old game he’s owned for many years but never played: Oltre Mare (5 players max). Extremely close final scores: Ian 46, Mike 45, Kevin and Alain and Pascal 44.
Tsuro Pascal Werlberger Pascal carves out a quarter of the board that nobody manages to invade and he wins with three squares remaining.
