Introduction

We had a Tribbles event at my house after the 2E event, all the players from the 2E stayed and played Tribbles. This was the first ever Tribbles event for Leianne, Andrey, and Dylan.

I had printed and made three more decks for this event, so that I had 6 decks to choose from for the 5 players. I gave a brief description of what each does and then everyone chose one. I chose Black (Battle), Tigh chose Rainbow Dash (Poison), Leianne chose White (Police), Dylan chose Red (Rescue), and Andrey chose Green (Clone). Nobody chose Brown (Bonus).

As we were shuffling our decks, my daughter Eleanor came over to me with tears streaming down her face. 'What's the mater,?' I said. 'I wanted Rainbow Dash.'


Round 1 ()
I actually managed to go out in Round 1, with Battle, but not with enough poitns to dominate the event. I had 312,222 here. The only other person to score was Tigh, who had 100,001 off of two poisons.

Round 2 ()
Round 2 is where Leianne started her domination. She went out with 223,531 in her pile + 120K off of IDIC to get 343,531 and the lead. I scored no further points and was in a close 2nd. Tigh continued to score consistently and added another 130,001 to his score. Dylan got on the board with 100 off a borrowed Poison power, as I recall. Andrey still had nothing.

Round 3 ()
In round 3, Tigh started getting his Poisons going, but wasn't hitting any crazy money. He managed another 110,003 here, but Leianne copied a poison and pulled big money off just the one. Dylan had gotten the hang of his deck in R2 and went out here to get 433,304 added to his preexisting 100. Andrey and I just watched.

Round 4 ()
Dylan went out again in R4, this accounts for his massive finishing score of 836,518. It looked like he could go over a mil, but he found no points in Round 5. Andrey finally found some points with 100K, which is all he would see all game. Tigh just got a grand here.

Round 5 ()
Leianne managed to get an antidote off of one of Tigh's poisons here, but it was very early in the round and she didn't have a play pile, so she just took her 100K and we kept playing. Nobody else scored any more points in this round exept Tigh, who managed 2,010 off poison before going out. He was disappointed to find that his playpile just had 1,322 in it, though.
