Our Splendor Tournament had 16 entrants, which meant 4 games for the first round of the single elimination, then the 4 winners continuing to the second round. Adam (with hand to head in photo) emerged victorious! Sadly by the end of the con, we started being too tired to take photos (sorry)!
Congratulations to you all! Looking forward to new adventures in tournaments at the next minicon!Expect a tournament for RoboRally at FlamingoCon on Jan 24.
We will teach the game in the morning to give newcomers a chance to learn this silly, crazy, frustrating and awesome game. In this game you program robots to zip around to flags on a factory floor, dodging lasers, maneuvering over conveyor belts and gears, and adding modifications.
Then in the afternoon, three games of 4 players will be played, and then 3 winners will move onto a final round.
We expect to plan one other tournament, still to be determined.
In January, we will post a calendar for demos including for Castles of Mad King Ludwig, Splendor, Camel Up, and more!
(not Heilfron's game, but a winning game at Dice Tower 2014)
Sadly, it seems there was some cheating going on by the original winner, who gave up his title after eagle-eyed online viewers brought evidence of foul play to attention of the officials. Source: Days of Wonder press release.
Keep it clean people! It's just a game!
