Triangle Board Games and Bars

Hi all,

So were doing a second Tichu tournament. The event date is Oct 25th starting at noon. The format will be Swiss style.

If we have 16 or less teams we will just play the Swiss rounds and declare a winner (and second) and award prizes from there. If we have over 16 teams we will cut to a top 4 and have a play off after the Swiss.

I know that's a little wild west way of doing it, but I'm still figuring out how to run these things.

Unlike the last one I will be playing in this one. I'll still be the rules lawyer for the day, but I'll designate someone not affiliated to be the back up rules person in case a ruling is needed at a table I'm participating in.

Reach out if you have any questions.

DETECTIVE PARTY: THE IMMORTALS

NOTE: in order to attend this event, you need a ticket. Tickets available at the game master (cash/card). SPECIAL PRICE THIS TIME 10$ per person.

Main Case
Los Angeles, California. An unknown strike force launched a brutal assault on a secret DEA facility hidden inside an abandoned building. Inside was the elite special-ops squad known only as “The Immortals.”The attackers blasted through the reinforced doors, cut the power, and slaughtered the disoriented operatives—most of them trapped in the same room. Moments later, the killers vanished, detonating explosives that reduced the hideout to ashes. According to the FBI’s official report, the remains of every Immortal were recovered from the ruins… except one.
