Much like Friday, Saturday started at a sedate pace. Carrie and I had breakfast, then I headed down to game, then Carrie went to spend the day with Beth and Diana.
- 11am, Puerto Rico (PRO), Heat 3 of 3, won (in fact a tie for first place). This win plus the earlier one earned me a bye for the quarter finals.
- 1pm, Race for the Galaxy (RFG), Heat 3 of 4, won.
- 2pm, Race for the Galaxy (RFG), Heat 4 of 4, 2nd place. Collectively, close, but not close enough to make the semi-finals.
- 3pm, Dominion (DOM), Heat 3 of 3, third place of 4. Collectively, not enough to make the semi-finals.
- 4pm, Ticket to Ride (TTR), Heat 3 of 3, lost.
At this point, I went out for a quick muffin and hotch with Eric and Cathy Raymond.
- 6pm, Puerto Rico (PRO), Quarter finals, third place of 4. I had earned a bye for this round, but chose not to take it as a favor to the GM (he needed one more player to round out the game). This ultimately wiped me out of the competition, but I was in the mood to play, and I played well -- just not well enough.
Carrie came back, so we went out to dinner at Cracker Barrel with Eric and Cathy. I hung out to see who would go to the Race for the Galaxy semi-finals (Cathy Raymond and Ken "Burnsy" Burnside did, Kathy Stroh and I didn't), then socialized for a while, before heading back to the room.
