Lookin' for a good time?
If you answered yes, you may want to check out RISK--the classic Game of Global Domination. As usual, when I host the party, I am the first to be out of the game. It's just good hosting I say.
Here are some character profiles of my opponents:
This is Meghraj. He doesn't talk about strategy. Oh he talks, makes sound effects, chokes on soft drinks and plays the race card, but he does NOT talk about strategy.
Chris Young. Pessimist. Actually controlled all of Asia and kept saying, I'm screwed, I'm screwed. Keeps his cool.
Bo Wheeler. Style, aggressive. A little too aggressive maybe. Bo doesn't play and doesn't appreciate table talk. Watch your game ettiquette around this guy.
Me. All-round loser. All talk, no dazzle. Want to play conservatively but can't contain my enthusiasm. Fast start and quick finish.
Anyway. If you need more Risk you might want to check out finalconquest.com or clevermedia.com to get some action.
Dale, your on. I'm in for a few rounds of final conquest. Name your time.

Posted by: Dale at June 3, 2004 4:58 AMYou know, I really thought I was the reason for your quick departures from the games. It's a load off of my back to know that it's not my illogical surprise attacks, but your own risky incompetence that's the root of the problem.
Final conquest sometime?
