One of the great things about playing games with the same guys every week is the banter around the table during the game. This week was no exception as we enjoyed a lot of joking around the table—mostly about how badly we were all playing. As you’ll see, Owen was the only exception. Oh, he joked all right, but his play was far from bad.
Ben had recently completed the final updates to the giant Settlers of Catan set he made, so we decided to play that this week. It looks really cool! We played two games on it. Owen dominated both games. He also started both games. I don’t think there is any significance there, but you never know. His starting position was the best on the board in both games. Usually our Settlers games are pretty close with several players being close to winning at the end of the game. This was certainly not the case this week as we all struggled to stay up with Owen. Ben is still on his wild win/lose gaming streak–meaning that if he doesn’t win the game, he usually ends up dead last. (He did tied for last place in the second game though, so maybe things are looking up for him.)
As always we had a great time.

I can’t thank Ben enough for his super terrain building skills. Too bad he’ll never see this. :)
