Default anything other than cards and dice?

Are any of you table-top gamers or LARPers?

Who mentioned dice?

How about Canasta?

I really like that game!

What about Backgammon?

Quite a few poker pros are very well schooled in backgammon.

Settlers is good stuff ... I was wondering about people playing AD&D, Whitewolf, Vampire: The Masquerade, or stuff like that. Seems most people on here focus on poker and bridge ...

Used to do the RPG stuff back in HS in college: Vamp, AD&D, Paranoia (is that the right name?).

I like the Cities & Knights expansion. It adds quite a bit to the game IMO.

I have both, and like them for different reasons. C&K is great for getting a more involved game, and the original is great to go back to for shorter games and introducing new players.
