1. What’s the last card game you played, and with whom did you play?

Well, it was either Egyptian Rat Screw or Spoons--probably the latter--with our youth group. It's been awhile.

2. What’s the last board game you played, and with whom did you play?

I played...hmmm, something...Worst Case Scenario, maybe?...with Sparky a few months ago.

3. What’s the last computer game you played, and with whom did you play?

I played a couple of Mah-Jongg games Thursday night online. Just me with the snoring Beast across the room.

4. Take the quiz: Which chess piece are you?

Your result for Which Chess Piece are You Test?...

The Queen's Confidante

Congrats! Only 5-7% of the population score this!

The Queen's Confidante is the first to hear the beat of a different drum. Many plunge into the avant garde experience and generally set the trend for their friends. They are more in touch with reality using their senses but this makes them want to live for the ‘here and now’. The Confidante is full of charm and may flow with compliments even if it [sic] isn’t deserved. Rather than write a poem on the beauty of life – they would rather live out the written story of beauty.

The Queen’s Confidante is usually peaceful and easygoing in nature. They usually adopt a 'live and let live' approach to life. They take things at their own pace and live for the moment. They may be quiet but are pleasant, considerate and caring. They may not be inclined to debate or air their views, but of course their values are important to them. They will solve problems as they arise especially if it [sic] concerns people. Generally the Confidante is one who develops great team spirit through the promotion of cooperation. They will only repeat facts without placing too much spin or interpretation on them. Because of this they may be the best mediators.

The Confidante is sensitive to its environment, and much more perceiving than others with regards to the physical world. They can notice variations in behavior of others. They are highly conscious of companions and friends, but they prefer to let others direct. This ‘Pawn’ is rarer than others because they are emotionally well rounded with a great degree of empathy. Because of this empathy, they can be overly concerned with ‘feelings’. They may even sacrifice their ideals and not contribute enough, especially if they don’t wish to exercise criticism.

Uh, well, I do like this, but I'm not sure of it's accuracy. Then again, I'm supposed to accept compliments even when they aren't deserved, so ... YAY! :-)

5. Of the games you listed in the first three answers, did you win any of the matches?

I rarely win at youth group: too busy watching the kids' faces and appreciating them. I probably won Worst Case Scenario. I usually do. ;-) I won one Mah-Jongg and lost one.

6. If you could only play one single game for the rest of your life, which game would you play and why would you choose it?

All I need is a deck of cards and I can make up a game!
