One last time in 2013, here’s the latest news from the Weasels.
The Year in Review
What’s New Year’s Eve Eve without a countdown? Relive five big moments from 2013.
Tony the Turkish Tiger
Tony Prokes made it two for two this season with his board top at Matt Sundstrom’s on Saturday. Game No. 231 also marked the Season Nine debuts of Royale participant Brad Harrington and former Bull Weasel Paul Pignotti, and the return to the table of a player who first played with the Weasels in Game No. 2 but hadn’t participated in a league game since March 2010. Check out the game summary.
Got Game?
We have several players who are interested in getting a game together this weekend. Either Friday or Saturday will work, but at the moment, we only have a host for Friday. If you’re up for a game, let us know soon so we can try to make it happen.
CODCon is Coming
The Weasels will return to the CODCon gaming convention at the College of DuPage April 5-6 for our eighth annual CODCon Open Diplomacy tournament. Make your plans to join us. Last year was a down year for our minor tournament as we managed just 15 players and five boards, but we expect to be back up in the seven- to nine-board range this year.
Upcoming Games
- Jan. 11 at Matt Kade’s home in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Chicago, starting at 11 a.m. Full. Standbys welcome.
- Jan. 19 at Dan Burgess’ home in Downers Grove, starting at 11 a.m. Have three.
Sign up for games at the website, on Meetup, or by emailing your faithful War Weasel (which is now Dan Burgess, danburgess67@gmail.com).
Important Dates
- April 5-6: The eighth annual CODCon Open Diplomacy tournament at the College of DuPage in Glen Ellyn.
Dues
We hope to send out our annual e-appeal for 2014 dues in the next month or two. In the meantime, you can use the PayPal link we set up for 2013 to pay your 2014 dues. We’re still charging $25, $10 if you’re a student. Eleven people have already paid their dues.
That’s all for this week.
