End of Game Statements

Kevin Wilson:  Ended up very close!  I had hoped for another round (or two) to get a couple more cards but it turned out OK.  Thanks to Chris for running the game and the Bill and Dave for playing.

Bill Scharf:  Close game, 14 points from a win, which I believe is a record from me. Congrats to Kevin.  I'm slowly getting better, I’ve got a good group to learn from, thanks guys, and thanks Chris for running it!

Dave Hooton:  I'm surprised I won this one, since I thought I wasn't playing all that well. Perhaps it's because I usually don't collect Colonist cards and I'm not used to that line of play. Thanks to Chris for running the game and to the other players for the closely competitive game.
