Last night we got together a spur of the moment poker game. Twice I tried to bring home the bacon and twice I failed. Though the second time I came in second. A head to header with Graham. I just couldn’t beat that dirty s.o.b.
So, two poker games down, a 24pack of beer, one pizza, and a couple joints later, the remaining three of us (myself, kurt, and mike) decided to fully dork out and take in a game of Settlers of Catan.

Settlers of Catan is to my trip to Toronto what Hero Clicks was to the Edmonton leg and Lawn Bowling to my Winnipeg leg. It’s the dork out game of choice in the city I am in. Some people were surprised when I told them that I played and really enjoyed late night Baci ball games in Winnipeg. Then came the Hero Clicks. A Role Playing Game we couldn’t get enough of in Marc’s basement. With his hundreds and hundreds of little action figures to choose from. In Settlers of Catan you try to be the dominant force on the island of Catan by building settlements, cities, and roads. You collect cards that represent raw materials to build up civilizations and get enough victory points to win the game.

So that’s how these three studs rounded out their night.



And it was first-timer Kurt that took home the most victory points and won the game.
