Might give "sands of time" another go...never really got that far in it, but it seems like a great game, I just have to be a little more patient.
Of course, I've been pondering reinstallation of all the MAME stuff I have too...

Well, I hope you are able to defeat your wife and son and take over the world.

(I just wanted to write that sentence.)

there arent many games where you rely solely - or mostly on your brain ..

chess, trivial pursuit ...one or 2 more ?


with risk ... i spend most of my time in amazement at my supernaturally bad luck with the dice.
same here. Its why i hated board games when i was a kid. 50% of the game was me getting shitty roles (or bad cards in sorry), the other 45% was my sister cheating her ass off.

She got the Starwars edition of trivial pursuit one year, though, and after that her ass was mine. i dont think i ever got a questions wrong.

hardly ever play them but i have about 10 or more different versions.

no one will play Silver Screen against me.
Ha! I cant get anyone to play trivial pursuit against me, period. I would imagine it would be the same for most of the people who are regulars here, a lot of us are pop culture databases.


It drives my wife crazy that i can remember that Ned Flanders was black in the first episode of the simpsons, but i cant remember to caall the red cross to see if they will take clothes donations.

Me neither. Wish we could all meet somewhere in the middle for a Trivial Pursuit battle royale! The three of us dads trying to out-nerd each other sounds fucking hilarious to me:)

:D

Which would beg the question, Would the winner really win, or would they be the the biggest loser in the group?


Of course, all of us being married and having kids kind of takes us off the loser list. At least we've all been with women. more than i can say for a lot of my nerd friends from high school.
