The <em>Wooden Spoon<\/em> this year goes to <strong>Louise<\/strong> who was only five points below <strong>Ross <\/strong>on the ladder.  <strong>Wayne Louise <\/strong>and <strong>Nicole<\/strong> were all recipients of <em>WHP<\/em>, and <strong>Ross <\/strong>was absent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main game <em>Sherlock Holmes<\/em> went off without problems, but a detailed reading of the rules by Rob revealed that we&#8217;ve been doing the initial deal incorrectly for many years.  It seems that on the deal, only one villain is included.  Previously we have dealt out cards which included <strong>at least<\/strong> one villain with the possibility of multiple baddies being distributed. Only a minor point, but we like to do it right don&#8217;t we gamers?<br><em>Billionaire<\/em>! was up to its normal fun level with <strong>Rob<\/strong> scoring a personal best, getting three Billionaire calls.  <strong>Genelle <\/strong>got two and steve got one, and that&#8217;s how the placings went.  <strong>Tara<\/strong> got four penalties offset by one Billionaire, and <strong>Louise <\/strong>also got four penalties, but no actual wins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don&#8217;t forget the Annual Dinner at Taren Point Bowlo (203 Holt Rd) at 7pm on Monday 28 November &#8211; there are trophies to be had.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tara wins, Steve most improved On a balmy late spring evening at the Jannali Gamerdome it was the expected outcome &#8211; our game host Tara won the championship for 2022.
