Thanks to Nick for having us out for another great league night! This was the last week for the summer between PAPA and Labour Day, so we’re back to regular schedule in September. Even given people being on vacation on and off through the summer, we’ve still had great turnouts, so the fall should be even better.

Scores and Standings-Week 9
Thanks to Adam and Denise for having everyone over again this week and keeping everyone fed for the evening. A great collection of games, with a lot of unique titles we don’t see anywhere else. This week also saw the return of some of the original TOPL members, with Tom and Jennifer dropping by while they were in town. Glad you guys could make it out last night! This was also the last league night before the PAPA world championships, so good luck to those that are heading down to compete! There should be a good sized contingent of TOPL members playing, and live results will be up on papa.org through the weekend. Good luck to the crew making the trip-throw a comment up on topl.ca to let us know if you’re heading down so we know who to look for in the standings!
