Given that I’m not much of a “sports” guy, you might be surprised to know that I was on my dormitory intermural softball team in college. Our rallying cheer was “We’ll kick your @$$ at Scrabble!”, which should give you some idea of our win/loss record. The cheer was true, however, and I am to this very day banned from Scrabble with my family because nobody believes my words. Similar bans are in play for video Jeopardy (I support this one, as I don’t like being yelled at) and for singing my go-to song, ‘Hey, Jealousy’ on Karaoke Revolution, making me wonder where YOU reign supreme, which leads us to today’s pastime query…
The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) will pummel you in the digital Smackdown ring, but saves the real fury for ‘Asteroids’, asking: In what game arena (video, board or otherwise) do you reign supreme?

Probably board games, but with a specific caveat: It only applies the first time I play a particular game. I have some supernatural form of beginner’s luck. 7 times out of 10 I win a board game the first time I play it, but only rarely do I ever win the same game again.
I’m way better than average dude in fighting type video games.
