bored games?
last night i was really really bored. the playstation has been played to death and my internet was down. i had nothing to do...and then i found monopoly at the bottom of some old unused cubbord. my family and me played monopoly for hours and had a great time.
my thoughts were when was the last time i had this much fun without using something that requires electricity? i really did have great fun sitting around laughing with my family. i lost the game but i still enjoyed myself so discuss: when was the last time you played something that doesnt need power to run? what is your favorite board game? what is your favorite card game? how long has it been since you even considered playing something that doesnt use power? have fun! |
My friends and I will take board games to IHOP and spend several hours playing and sipping coffee. Our favorite game to play is LotR Trival Pursuit. We have also played Dominos, Apples to Apples, cards, and other board games. My favorite board game would have to be Life (The Pirates of the Carri bean version). When my roommates first bought this we played it all the time and did drinking games with it. I mean it's a Pirates version, you have to have a little rum in there somewhere, right? ^_- My favorite card game would have to be Apples to Apples followed very closely by Egyptian Ratscrew. I also like Crazy 8's and War. I really want to learn how to play Spades and Hearts though. |
hehe i love the rum thing. thats to funny. "and really bad eggs" hehe!
im happy to see you play lots of board games. i dont know anyone who plays board games nowdays coz there is xbox and ps2 and psp instead. no one remembers board games sadly |
I have a whole chest full of board and card games. : ) I also keep a deck of cards in my backpack in case I get bored. ^^ I'll take them out and play a game of solitaire or poke someone nearby into playing a game of war with me. xD |
hehe thats really cool! i dont know many card games. only last card and uno and fish and old maid. no one ever taught me card games. but i play chess on my ps2
|
I know how to play War, Egyptian Ratscrew, Crazy 8's, Go Fish, Old Maid, Squares, BS, and Spoons. Most of those I learned in high school during final weeks and such. I've tried to learn chess a few times, but I'm not good at it. >.<; |
i never win chess but i try hard. no one i knows knows any card games. i would love to learn some tho. i really want to go camping with some friends and see what happens when they have no electronics. but someone will bring a psp. i know it!
|
lol You should specify "no electornic devices" when you go. : ) I love camping, I can't imagine ruining the natural feel of things with a game system. lol |
when was the last time you played something that doesnt need power to run?
I think the last thing I did that didn't require electricity was... umm... actually... I think it was on Saturday. what is your favorite board game? I would probably have to say a game called... Rail Barron. It's a train game that's too complicated to explain xD. what is your favorite card game? I would have to say that my favorite card game of all times would have to be crazy 8's. Simple yet fun. how long has it been since you even considered playing something that doesnt use power? Probably a few hours ago xD |
My family constaintly plays board and card games.
Scabbled, Tri-Dominos, Crib/Cribbage and Rummykins are all games that we play on a regular basis. |
I try to avoid board games with my family because they're, uh...not too much fun to play with =]
I play stuff like solitaire all the time. And I've played blackjack with myself a few times >.>; |
My family and I would play TriBond a lot during the holidays.Its been a while but it was always fun.^^
As for cards, my girlfriends and I used to always keep a deck of cards in our purses. They would get pulled out whenever we were bored and play all different kinds of games. I think our favorite was Crazy 8s. ^^ It definatly came in handy during long lines at conventions. X3<3 |
I love board games, actually, but most of my family doesn't so I don't get to play them much. I think the last time I played one was near the beginning of this year. My favorite board game would probably be Monopoly. I like games that last for a while rather than the 'ten minutes and it's over' games. They just don't entertain you for very long, you know?
|
i believe the last thing i played was a book of sudoku xD
my favorite board game would have to be life. recently i find myself enjoying the simpsons version of life =] the card game i prefer is black jack, though sometimes i do like playing crazy 8's xD |
I'm actually quite good at chess.
I used to play it all the time with my father. Especially around this time of year. :] The last time I palyed monopoly was the computer game version that my brother won from McDonalds ;/ But it was fun and didn't have to worry about the money XD {I Hate Math D:} I have a lot of OLD board games sitting in my closet's shelves. I should take a look and see what hasn't rotted. Cx |
I don't care much for monopoly, it takes too long. I do sometimes have fun playing board games with my kids, very rarely though, the last one we played was Nick Scene It (requires a t.v. though). I like trivial pursuit but, no one else here does.
|
Oh dude. Dungeons and Dragons. Heeeel yeah 8)
But seriously. We were getting bored, so I just blew up my friend's PC. Ah, those were the days... |
Oh I love Monopoly! I hardly ever get to play it though because all my friends and family think it's boring! D: I also remember liking Life, but I haven't played it in years and years.
Card games I'm not too good at so I stay away from those. |
when was the last time you played something that doesnt need power to run?
......Hmm... Probably a few mothes ago. what is your favorite board game? Life. I rarely play it, but it's very fun ^^. what is your favorite card game? Uno, hands down. I've always enjoyed playing it. It's really fun, and one of the few games I am good at playing. how long has it been since you even considered playing something that doesnt use power? I haven't really considered it at all. Unless you count crafts as playing, then I haven't considered it since... Sometime in july. |
when was the last time you played something that doesnt need power to run?
- Hmm...that's a good question, My boyfriend and I played battleship...strip battleship lol a little bit ago, but I think pretty recently I played cards and a board game with some of my cousins...it's a ton of fun. I love board games. what is your favorite board game? - I Loooove Monopoly and LIFE....but I think my all time favorite would have to be CLUE...it's just fricking awesome! what is your favorite card game? - Something called Spit...it's pretty much the same as Speed only a longer version...and of course I love BS and Egyptian Ratscrew. Umm...and I really like this game called 'cash' it's called a lot of different names, but you have a partner...4 people total, and you put some cards down in stages and when you get 4 of a kind you do a special signal...it's awesome! lol...and of course Poker is always fun. how long has it been since you even considered playing something that doesnt use power? - It's been like...a day lol I don't know, I just read a book yesterday. <3 yay manga. (but that's not really playing...w/e) |
My family loved playing board games. xD We still have a whole closet full of them. I can't rememeber when the last time I played one though... Usually no one's here so I can't play it alone. And I don't like cards much. I liked the games 'Sorry' and 'Trouble' or something. xD |
The last time I played a game that wasn't electronic was probably months ago. I think I was playing hangman at the time. My favorite board game is snakes and ladders and monopoly. I have a lot of favorite card games. But out of them all,I like Uno the best. It has been a while since I've played a game that wasn't electronic, I have no idea why though.
|
I like playing backgammon. It's been awhile since I've played it though...in fact... I don't really remember how to play it, just that I liked playing it. xDDD |
Lmao, I keep trying to get my best friend and my brother to play monopoly but they're like "Naomi, that'll take ages and there's a million other things we can do instead!" Sooo... I kind of gave up on that, lmao. But someday...
I love card games, haha. Though the occasion never shows up to play them. ): |
Part of my volunteer work is keeping the special needs residents entertained. And one of them loves Candyland. And I swear Candyland is simpler than it used to be. : /
And Uno needs batteries, but it's pretty close to a board game. And before that, I convinced my friends to play Clue. |
