Hi everyone!
As with the first one, we'll have our second meeting also on
Friday 7-9pm in Dwinelle. Those who know how to play can come in and grab cards to immediately get started. For newcomers, we'll start off with details on how to play Canasta as usual. As always, cards will be provided for everyone to play.
We'll also try to spice things up a bit by maybe running a miniature tournament or Around-the-World for the best Canasta team. Maybe we'll throw in a miniature prize as well - who knows?
See you there!
Edit:
So tomorrow's the big day! The meeting is still on, and this is just a quick update on what'll be happening tomorrow
.
The first few minutes will just be a quick introduction of our club with what's going on (mainly just playing Canasta), and maybe talking a little about the tournament, just to get the date out there.
Next we'll probably open up the floor to any challenges anyone wants to make, and to get some ideas on who to challenge, Carol Yu is currently at the top of the ladder, with a whopping 1685 points! Next up is Kevin He (1641). Challenges can be both partner and individual, and they'll play at separate tables.
For the rest of the group, we should have five new (or beginning) players to one coordinator, but depending on how many coordinators we have (4 confirmed) and players showing up, it can be more or less. After a quick game or two of Canasta to learn to game and get into it, we'll probably start the mini-tourney. Depending on how many people show up, it'll either be singles or partners. More information tomorrow, seeing as how it's hard to explain this over a post =P. Hope to see everyone tomorrow! I have a feeling it'll be super fun
