    Tuesday, 06/27/17 6 to 9 PM at the Hulen Mall food court, at 4800 South
    Hulen Street, in southwest Fort Worth, TX.

    We eventually had six gamers at two tables this eventually rainy evening, including newcomers Michael C and Michael L. Farrell wandered in around 7:45 and merely observed.

    Table # - First, my Medici, which was new to Michael L, Michael C, Sonnett, and Jason. At the end of Day One Jason P lead with 58, while Michael C and I brought up the rear with 40. Connor had snagged the valuable Gold card. The end of Day Two saw Jason still in the lead with 74, while I was now solely
    in the rear with 48. Michael L had taken the Gold card. On Day Three several players achieved the top of the commodity pyramids. Michael L gained the
    Gold card, again. At game end Michael L was 2nd in cloth. Jason was tops in fur. Michael C had the most dye and spice. Connor had topped out in grain. Sonnett was second in dye and fur. And I achieved the pinnacle in Cloth (but had done horribly in the other commodities). No one set sail this outing
    with less than a full ship.

    Scores: Michael L 107, Jason P 97, Sonnett 87, Michael C 85, Connor 61, Michael W 53. Duration: one hour and five minutes. I believe everyone
    enjoyed the game.


    We then broke into two tables. Continuing on at table 1, we played my The Builders: Antiquity, which was new to Sonnett and Michael C. I had thought we'd have time to finish. Alas, no. I think we got through about 2/3's of a game before 9 PM rolled around.

    Partial scores: Michael C 16.7, Sonnett 13.5, Michael W 11.2. Duration: one hour. Michael C and Sonnet enjoyed the game.



    Table #2 - Jason's Relic (or Relics). I had no time to even look at it, and
    I barely got a score out of them. For they too didn't finish their game and were scrambling at 9 PM to put the game up. Connor said they got through
    about 3/4's of a game.

    Partial scores: Jason P 35+, Michael L 34, Connor 27.
