I like exploring the gameboard and killing people.

Ah yes, more killing. I wish you and your family lived closer to me so ....

Actually I have only played it once and I played the boy, but was not the betrayer.

I would enjoy this so much more if you could kill the people that lived in your opponents' cities and towns. But, it's okay.

I like trying to cure the diseases.

(Dad: I keep this going mostly, but he does make good suggestoins that I miss sometimes)

Technically, that paragraph is grammatically incorrect. According to MLA format, question marks are to be included inside quotation marks. Since Jack Lynch is from Rutger University, he should have been using MLA format.

Also, using contractions are not proper English,

Pedant Alert

I'm guessing Dad might have attempted to tidy up the young one's grammar; however....

From the Guide to Grammar and Style by Jack Lynch:

"One tricky case comes up from time to time: is it "a historic occasion" or "an historic occasion"? Some speakers favor the latter — more British than American speakers, but you'll find them in both places — using an on longish words (three or more syllables) beginning with h, where the first syllable isn't accented. They'd say, for instance, "a hístory textbook" (accent on the first syllable) but "an históric event." (Likewise "a hábit" but "an habítual offender," "a hýpothetical question" but "an hypóthesis.") Still, most guides prefer a before any h that's sounded: "a historic occasion," "a hysterical joke," "a habitual offender" — but "an honor" and "an hour" because those h's aren't sounded."

Sorry, it's just one of my pet peeves. And I'm not accepting being Australian (or British) as an excuse. It just sounds silly, and that's coming from someone who prides himself in sounding silly and/or pretentious by using correct grammar.

Time to stop being an jerk.

In many regional accents in the United Kingdom, the leading 'h' in words is rarely, if ever, sounded. It's probably the same in Australia. It's just the way some of us speak.

P.S. Great list Ethan! Keep on gaming!

If you could drown peasants in that fountain I'd enjoy this one.

Being lucky at getting the right cards is probably key to enjoying this one. Of course if a little figurine came with it that you could drive the trains over, that would make it so much better.

Every time I flick my car over the rails and across the room, I pretend that I can hear the driver screaming. That keeps me coming back to this.

I was hoping to read, "I like to think that I can hear the Beans screaming in agony while I harvest them."

Hail Eris!

I like that if you play this with the right people, they tell you exactly what your best move is, and you never have to bother reading what it says on any of the cards. This frees up time to imagine yourself zipping through space, shooting aliens with ever more terrible weaponry.

Next time someone says the symbols are too hard to understand, I'll give him the link to this geeklist

A child of five ten would understand this. Send someone to fetch a child of five ten.
