After the long horrible travel up from London we are currently waiting to get on the board... and this is a perfect time to get some gaming in cause God knows how long we will be sitting here for... and after consulting the kids we decide its going to be Connect for... and for you idiot out here this is how you play it...
- Firstly you need to buy the game!!!
- You then decide who is going to be Red and Yellow or what ever freaking colours they maybe...
- You then take turns place one of the discs in the slots...
- The winner is who ever gets 4 in a row... as in the name...
- And if you still don't understand... your an idiot!!! So just look at the graphic below!!!
So the first challenger is Roy... In the first game I finish strong after only using 5 counters... the second game is more even but I still manage to get him into a lose lose situation... and then in the final of the three I complete the perfect game... that's right connect four with only four counters. Boo ya!!! My next victim... I mean challenger is Jay... the first game was a real good match... but I end up winning with a double connect four... the next match went more like the way of the matches with Rory and it was over quick... the third match was once again a bit more challenging... but once again I got him in a lose lose situation and victory six is mine!!!
And with the kids dispatched its onto the men... more persificley my cousin Tristan... now with this sport (if you can call it a sport) being tactical he should be a challenge all considering he is one of the best chess players I have ever play. And in our first match you could really feel the tension. The whole family sitting round the table on the boat waiting on our every move. So Im told we took ages for each turn but we were both in the zone. But unforunately two defeats followed for me. Tristan was ruthless and challenged me from start to finish. He outsmarted me into a lose lose situation in the first game and in the second I gifted it too him with a very foolish move. This man has pushed me to the limit!
With the night nearly over one last game of Connect 4 is in order. The challenger Jay... and well it starts off one hell of a battle... blocking each others attempts to win... but after a long and hard slog and with only one choice I could possibly make I gifted Jay his first victory against me and in some way too... he beat me with a connect 5... 5!!! I don't think this game ever expected you to get 5! He was awesome and now I'm kind of glad he has to go to bed or my score lead could of possibly dwindled away if he kept up that form!!! Anyway its been a great weekend of gaming and well its straight to work for me in the morning... lets just hope I have more gaming weekends like this!!!
