Yesterday I played some games with the best of all opponents, Johanna. She wanted to play something, so I suggested Lord of the Rings: The Confrontation. I wasn’t completely sure if that was her kind of game, but she seemed to like it. As was proper for her first game, she won, too. Frodo managed to slip into Mordor, after Sam had cleared the Black Rider out of the way with his noble sacrifice.

We then played a game we have played several times before: five-in-row on a Go board. We don’t stop at the first five-in-row but instead fill the board with stones and then count the five-stone rows. It’s much better that way!
