Parlor Games 5/31/03 12:46pm
Anyone up for some gaming over Yahoo?

Why not GSA? Because it's slower and far buggier, and doesn't track games.

What games do I like?

- Go (Not very good though)
- Checkers
- Hearts
- Chess
- Backgammon

I consider myself a less-than-decent chess player, as well as being utterly crap in checkers, but I'm up for a game in weither of the two. I would prefer using GSA though, seeing how I haven't got a Yahoo account.

Get an Yahoo account. In all seriousness, their games are far more stable and crash free then GSA, and it's a cleaner interface. (And I don't have GSA installed right now.) I mean, Katvis and I were playing Chess once, and we restarted 3 times becuase GSA failed to record a move, but tried to let the other player go.

I hit up the Yahoo games during school, tis great fun.

The classic boardgames bore me, I'm more of the pool playing type. I haven't played game of checkers or chess that doesn't last under half-hour, and I just don't have the time for that now.

I'll play ya any time, just ask me in IRC or ICQ me at 106937985. I would play with you right now, but it would be in direct opposition of me pretending to do my homework.

Always with the ass whippings, and never with the cream.

I like Go. A friend of mine showed me that on a real set he bought in England. He's really good, so I wouldn't mind playing somebody of my own skill level (which is shit).
