The rest of the week kind of went by in a blur. My teammates lost their tournaments and Chris made sure I wouldn't win mine (el Grande). He weaseled his way into the El Grande finals and then proceeded to beat me down. I ended up fifth and he fourth. I was so steamed for about an hour afterwards! So much for team work!
Saturday night was the auction and the two gems were two pre AH copies of Titan. They ended going for $650 and $700. I decided $300 was my limit (though I knew I wouldn't get them for that) In fact, I behaved myself at the auction and only ended up with three games (Formula Motor Racing $14; Hacienda- shrinkwrapped $16 and Space Dealer
Saturday night also brought snow and sleet and we wondered if we would be able to leave. We were able to get out and just barely make it to our connection in Charlotte, though our luggage did not. It came the next day.
All in all it was a great trip! I made some wonderful new friends and got to catch up with some I had not seen in a while (I got to dinner with Strack and his wife and baby before the auction).
I ended up taking first in the Alhambra tournament and third in Detroit Cleveland Grand Prix. Chris ended up taking fourth in Advanced Civ and first in Caylus.
I definitely would like to do it again next year.
