Sherlock & Sherwood
It was a cool Autumn night at Tara‘s, and she convincingly won the main event – Sherlock Holmes. This was sufficient for her to overtake Rob by 10 points into second place on the competition ladder. Louise is now the ladder leader – she was only 5 points behind Rob in March, and since he WHP, it took only Louise‘s second place in Sherlock to put her at the top. Also back in March you might remember there was a historic 4-way tie for last place between Val, Nicole, Pete and Matt – this has resolved into a tie for 4th place between Matt and Wayne.
The second game Sherwood was resurrected from the archives – I believe I heard Wayne say it was last played in 2017! We eventually got used to the scoring rules, and I thought it went over very well. Pete displayed the most polished archery technique which landed him 2nd place in the game. One weakness of Sherwood in my opinion is that no matter how skilled the archer, the draw card can make or break a turn, ie; the draw card has too much influence on the score. What do you think?
