Two latecomers, and Hostess misses meet
It was a balmy summer night at the Presidential Games Room, but at meeting time there were only four members at the table. Firstly, the host for the evening, Jiordan, was still in Queensland with her mother who is ill – we elected to proceed with her games programme despite her absence. Then there were the latecomers Rob and Nicole who were both late due to unusual home situations. We still managed to get through the two games, although with a somewhat late finish.
Race To The Top has been played on only one previous occasion, but proved to be a good trivia game with some similarities to Trivial Pursuit, and it was easy to determine a winner by applying a time limit rather than playing to the conclusion. Popular with those who love trivia games, and not so popular with those who don’t, it was won by Rob with Genelle and Nicole in the minor placings. Nicole got a double helping of points by winning the backup game Yahtzee in fine style, scoring I believe two actual Yahtzees – this puts her in second place on the scoreboard. The minor backup placings went to Louise and Wayne, and Tara was the only WHP.
