A Tight One!

The most recent Mario Party was indeed a tight one! To let you share in the suspense, instead of posting the winner straight away, I'd prefer to walk you through the step-by-step of what John, Amy and I experienced last night...

First, we ended Pagoda Peak in a four-way tie with 1 star each!

When it came to coins, Amy won the final game to take a 1-coin lead over Boo (JW):

So we all knew that the Bonus Stars would lead us to the winner. Little did we know however, what they would be, and once announced, who in the world won them:

But Luigi (Todd) took the Mini Games star! A shocker as JW frequenly wins this star!

There was a two-way winner for Orbs used -- Boo & Toad! Darned small fries...

The final star would mean that whoever won the Running Star for movement on the board would win the whole thing! If Amy won, she'd have two stars and the most coins! But it was not meant to be...

Boo secured the third and final bonus star and effectively gave John yet another Mario Party win!

And we hereby state that JW can no longer be Boo either. Boring.
