    Will you have full body contact Battle Ship or just the stuff with tiles and dice?

    Just tiles and dice (though no actual Battle Ship, I think, gotta check the board game stash). Until someone loses and flips the board. I take no responsibility for board-game related injuries (or mud wrestling).

    Subject: Trash Talk?

    Will there be trash talk? Nothing warms up a challenge like some good old-fashioned international trash talk between teams, just like they do on the WWF, GLO, or at the Spelling Bee. You know.

    "Conde-Naste copy editors! When I get at the mike I'll rip your "Where's Waldo" glasses off you head and make you run like a blind girl! Booya Grandma!"

    Or

    "German Language Studies Major! Ich verbinde Kräfte mit tabel zwei und dich zu zerstören die failign Nation mögen, die du bist! Die Büeyanen, Großmutter!!"

    Or

    (Translated from Korean)
    "I will challenge you all the way to the grave of your ancestors and make you very ashamed of your boldness! I show you and your clanship much disrespect at this competionion! Kamsahamnida."

    Ah, I've often thought, during aheated game of Trivial Pursuit, "I connect forces with tabel two and you to destroy failign the nation like, which is you! The Bueeyanen" Good to know I'm not the only one.

    YOU BETTER BRING YOUR OWN PEICES

    I was there last night and the Scrabble boards only had half the letters they were supposed too, and 1/4 of those were letters written on cardboard. It was the shortest game ever. There were no U's!

    I didn't notice this thread until today. How did it go?

    It went okay, except all the trivial pursuit (tm) cards were missing the "geography" and "sports and leisure" questions.

    It went pretty well for a 1st-time event on a quiet Sunday night.

    Check back in next month for Trivial Pursuit, The Game of Life, Scrabble, Pictionary and Craniun!
