Eric arrived at the Jones’ house around 1:30pm. Kimberly was already there. Royal arrived at 2:00. While Royal was eating, Bob started setting up Web of Power. During the process of setting up, he found that some of the purple pieces were missing. Stephanie arrived around 2:30.

Royal - 53, Eric - 46, Kimberly - 39, Bob - 34, Carol - 20
We missed a rule that would have given Carol one more turn at the end of the game.

Bob - 68, Kimberly - 68, Eric - 64, Carol - 49, Stephanie - 44
There was some minor confusion due to the poor rules translation provided with the game.

The Ruvinsky’s arrived around 6:50. Bob started grilling hot dogs and hamburgers.

After dinner, we watched Lord of the Rings and then the making of The Two Towers preview. Bill and Rachel Ruvinsky left. Then we watched certain scenes again, pointing out flaws. We finished about 1:00am. Stephanie White left. Then we watched the MTV video awards parodies of the Elrond Council and Spiderman. About 1:40 Royal and Carol went to bed.

Kimberly, Bob, Jason, Rachel, Alex and Eric then played Chrononauts (won by Bob), Elixir (won by Rachel) and Democrazy (won by Bob). Kimberly went to bed around 4:20am.
