The NEOC Holiday party this evening prominently featured the Patriots - Ravens Divisional Playoff game, which the Pats won narrowly 35-31. The Parsons were excellent hosts as always.

Magnus and I were the only ones to correctly answer the map snippet challenge, where you tried to identify a map by a small 5 cm x 5 cm section. The answers were Hammond Pond, Great Brook Farm, Estabrook Woods, Nobscot, and High Rock - the last was the trickiest, as we have only had three local meets there in the past few years. It was hardly a fair competition, as Magnus and I are both on the mapping committee and have pored over maps. poured chocolate milk over maps.

I won the M-21 Points Series by a wide margin; my competition has suffered attrition from moving, graduating, and having enormous babies. There was some excellent cold ping pong; Magnus and I in particular played a best of 7 games match which Magnus won 4-3. Izzy talked some excellent foosball trash which maybe we'll settle one day. The only accessible tables I know of are in bars, so it might be a few years.
