"Raleigh, N.C. — Raleigh police arrested a man after an armed robbery at a Hillsborough Street restaurant shortly after noon Sunday. A man entered the Wing Zone restaurant at 2020 Hillsborough St., displayed a firearm and demanded money from an employee, police said. The clerk was not injured. The robber fled the scene on foot but was seen getting into a vehicle, police said. The employee described the vehicle to officers, and they stopped it near Cameron Village. The suspect was taken into custody without incident. The suspected robber has not given police his real name, so investigators were working to determine his identity later Sunday afternoon. Police planned to charge him with robbery with a dangerous weapon. "

1/25/2009 5:40:34 PM

I'm a dork - my newest favorite is Apples to Apples (although I guess that's more of a card game). And I love Cranium!

1/25/2009 5:42:19 PM

When I can play it, I enjoy Axis and Allies, but I've only played with other people like once or twice.

1/25/2009 5:45:58 PM

othello
scrabble
cranium
trivial pursuit
sorry
apples to apples

1/25/2009 5:56:41 PM

othello is the only board game i've never been at least decent at...i don't think i've ever won at that game

1/25/2009 5:57:31 PM

Risk. I've heard very good things about Axis and Allies, though.

othello's all about thinking in long-term strategy.

but there are some very simple strategies that will allow you to beat most people who don't play much.

the family got Cranium for christmas, that was pretty fun. Would have been better with more people but I thought it could be really fun if I were drinking or with friends instead of family

1/25/2009 6:43:47 PM

although my gf wins a disproportionate amount of times, something like 3 to 1

You could not even almost beat me in Scrabble. I'll give you 100 points and still beat you by probably 100.

1/25/2009 7:19:59 PM

either scrabble or stratego...except no one ever wants to play stratego

1/25/2009 7:21:59 PM

^^ Does their interface use IE to get your network info?

1/25/2009 7:23:56 PM

I don't exactly know what that means.

1/25/2009 7:25:35 PM

1/25/2009 7:29:02 PM

That is an awesome game. There are some excellent expansions, as well as some crappy ones too. I love board games... I am such a nerd.

1/25/2009 7:31:54 PM

I'm on a proxy and it's not connecting. So I'm wondering if I have to open up IE and change my proxy settings in there or if it can be done in the wordbiz itself.

I do realize that by now I could have just opened IE and tested it myself

If you're using Vista you have to run the program as an administrator.

1/25/2009 7:36:03 PM

Chess
Monopoly
Trivial Pursuit (especially the 80's edition and the Star Wars edition)

aha I never knew there was a D&D board game.

1/25/2009 10:45:17 PM

there are a lot of good board games!

but a few weeks ago we played cranium and drank beers and it was super fun. i had never played cranium before--a cross between trivial pursuit, charades, pictionary

1/25/2009 10:45:35 PM

I need to get another semester long game going with the roomies. set the board up, put a marker down, and just move when you see its your turn by the marker. last time i did it we played for 3 months
