I went to a small game convention last night and this morning - there was a Puerto Rico tournament. I did very well in the first three games - won them all. Then in the 4th round I got completely out-manuevered, and came in 3rd. I still made the final; my three wins saw to that. I got knocked off my early strategy of getting a Factory - they went when I was short a few doubloons. I think my mistake was buying the Office; should have gone for the Large Market. I came in 3rd in a very close game - the 4 of us separated by 5 points. All in all, a pleasant diversion - I'll have to do this again!
