66 points!

GC-in-E at Stephen’s again. I got there fairly late, having spent some time in Barnes & Noble reading Matt Wagner’s Trilogy (three-issue series about Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman, collected in hardcover). It’s pretty good; I especially liked the opening scenes. Not enough to buy it, though.

When I got there, the gang was suffering through a protracted Cosmic Encounters endgame. I played that game enough back in high school and college to last me the rest of my life.

After they finally beat the game to death, and bigscary negativeq established by phone that we aren’t worthy enough for them to bother traveling downtown for, we played a four-player game of Puerto Rico, something we haven’t played since San Juan came out. I started out with corn for the first time in I dunno how long, managed to get a money pump going, and finally scored my highest ever, 66 points, only to be beaten by Stephen’s 69.

Then a game of San Juan, ’cause it wouldn’t be GC without our current addiction, then home.

Speaking of our current addiction, this 5+ player variant may be worth commenting on...
