[12:37] <andrew> yar
[12:37] <andrew> been at work for 40 minutes
[14:24] <ChinnoDog> What is an unusual board game a 9yo boy would be able to appreciate?
[14:25] <pleia2> stratego
[14:25] <pleia2> (it was pretty much my favorite game growing up)
[14:27] <pleia2> wikipedia makes it sound more complicated than it is, age range is 8+ but I know I was playing it before then
[14:27] <ChinnoDog> That looks fun, like I would want to play
[14:27] <pleia2> yeah, I'm sure I'd still enjoy it :)
[14:32] <InHisName> ChinnoDog: depends on what interests him.

[14:34] <InHisName> Is he into dolls and lifestyles etc?   violence, shooting, killing, bloodletting, etc ?   Constructing, building, bridging, etc? or ??
[14:34] <InHisName> Puzzle games on words or numbers or tricks ?
[14:37] <InHisName> I liked stratego, battleship, dots game (used blank graph paper), tick tack toe (had more fun programming it)
[16:10] <waltman> We played just about everything Parker Bros. and Milton Bradley made when we were in that age range :)
[16:17] <andrew> How do I see dropped packet stats in XP?
[16:18] <ChinnoDog> I don't have an XP machine, but probably one of the perfmon counters
[17:56] <ChinnoDog> There is a 4 player version of Stratego that is out of production. I wonder if peeps that have played the 2 player version would think it is just as good.
[17:58] <waltman> 2 player games generally don't work well as 4 player games -- chess, for instance
[17:58] <waltman> I'd imagine the strategy would be quite a bit different in 4 player stratego
[17:58] <ChinnoDog> Is there a 4 player chess?
[17:58] <ChinnoDog> That would be weird
[17:59] <waltman> there are a LOT of chess variants
[17:59] <waltman> Well, that's kind of what I'm saying.  I think 4 player Stratego would be weird, too.
[17:59] <ChinnoDog> 4 player chess would take all day to play
[17:59] <ChinnoDog> ok then. I'll gift the 2 player version.

[18:00] <ChinnoDog> I think I was appreciating nice toys at 9. I like the B&N edition of Stratego
