WELP

I am officially in Not A Very Good Position.

Conditional on everyone else passing, I am going to move my Turn Order meeple to use the Keystone Quarry then pass until it's over

Oh wait, it could have been worse. Somehow I missed that both the other turn order picks were by ETB

Sorry dude, I was really hoping to get some Reds from the Brewer and Alehouse and reclaim the boat, but for once they weren't being drunken layabouts!

To go quickly is foolish. To go slowly is prudent. Not to go; that is wisdom.

You fuuuuuuck.

Summer is over!

I'm not clear on what happens regarding the start player marker in this circumstance - does ETB get both first player and first choice of boat? Or does first player go to Electric Hobo (as being the next person clockwise from Aston, after ETB and Aston have both picked)?

Regardless, players, please decide how to place your tiles:
bobvonunheil wins Carpenter, Hiring Fair, Mason.
Aston wins Smelter, Brewer.
ETB wins Farrier, The Aston.
Electric Hobo wins Boat 4a.

I don't see why ETB wouldn't get both first boat pick and first player.

Yeah, ETB gets first pick and first player.

Stelas

Ah, yes. At first I wasn't sure from the rules, but I finally twigged that boat picking is effectively done completely separate to picking first player. So boats are in order ETB, Aston, Electric Hobo, bonvunenheil, with ETB first going into next season.

Probably obvious, but I'll pick the boat with the most stuff when it's my turn.

Don't I get 3rd boat pick?

[edit] Oh poo poo, I thought we were going clockwise (so ETB was 4th, not 3rd)

... erghhhhh that was actually my bad, sorry. I had been going off the order of players beneath the post, and I really should have considered that when making the images as well. That's one I'll have to fix up for next time through the game.

It's fine, there wasn't anything I could actually do about it anyway.

Yeah, I'm that guy.
I will take the Leftmost boat with the Saw.

Please place The Aston The Brave next to my Home so the water connects between them, with the same orientation as Home.

Please place the Farrier south of Keywood and flipped 180° (upside down).

You know, I've got a funny feeling I've seen this all before.
Disturbing number of tiles going for one measly Keyple this round, especially to Bob. I guess taking Sea Breese is the price you pay for that though.

That's my only real solace at this point; I'm pretty starved for Keyples.

So are most players, I think. That round cleaned out everyone except one player, who is making huge slave labour bank.
