1) In honor of it being Halloween weekend the first game out was Betrayal at House on the Hill.  Dave Landon, Dave Olson, Brandon Chris and Alex’s exploration of the house proceeded per normal, except no main stairs to the basement was found.  Instead a few luckless adventureres uncovered chutes, slides or outright fell through the floor to discover the lower chambers.  It was while most were down there that that Dave Olson was revealed to be the traitor, and roused a Frankenstein monster to try and hug his former allies to death.  The beast took off with a start and quickly he cornered Alex in the graveyard.  Chris and Dave left the basement through a discovered secret passage and frantically explored the upper floors in search of items to fight the monster.  Brandon wasn’t so fortunate in escaping the basement.  Dave O. and the monster cut him off from the secret route and slowely gained on Brandons slower character.  Though as fortune would have it Brandon found the stair well up at the last tile and quickly joined his two other companions in the upper floor.  The monster soon followed but was slowed.  For two consecutive turns Dave found his monster under attack as torch after torch was hurled at the monster, all landing with perfect accuracy.  The monster quickly took light and Dave was lectured about the errors of trying to kill his friends.  Everyone then left the mansion, well except for Alex who was still dead.

2.Next up Brandon doned the Mr. X cap as Chris, Both Daves Alex and Tyler attempted to catch him in Scotland Yard.  Starting off in North Western London, Mr X tried to cross the Themes via the bridge but was cut off by Dave Landon.  As the officers neared on his location though, Mr. X quickly cut back to the subway to the middle of the board and began moving east.  By then the officers had him surrounded.   After a series of secret moves the officers were growing concerned that he might have found an opening, Chris and Dave O.rushed East and South trying to mitigate any distance if he was heading back to the Themes.  The rest guarded against the subway, Dave L in the south Tyler in the West and Alex in the North.  It turned out Brandon had double backed since his subway stint and moved west, but ended up getting stuck by Alex and Tylers movements.  When his position become known Tyler was able to capture him in a turn.

3) Two game of Avalon were played with evil winning both rounds.  Tyler, Chris, Karen, Alex and Brandon were defeated in the first game by both Daves and Jim.  The second game Chris Jim and Alex managed to confuse Tyler, Karen, Brandon and both Daves.

4) Dave Olson was eager to try and play his new Kemet game.  Chris had already played the game and taught it to both Tyler and Dave.  Using a heavy blood strategy Chris won with 11 points though.  Tyler finished with six and Dave with four.

5) Karen, Dave O. and Chris played a round of Ticket to Ride: Switzerland.  Chris won with 97, followed by Dave with 88 and Karen close behind with 84.

6) Jim and Alex took on Tyler and Dave L in Warparty.  In a long, back and forth game Jim and Alex managed to triumph over the forces of evil.
