Hey everbody, my name is Matt .
I play golf pretty much year round, except when there's snow outside. I also play basketball, baseball, and a little table tennis. I'll play any sport if you tell how.
I'll listen to all kinds of music, but not so much country. I do play the piano in my spare time.
There are times when i can be really outgoing, and the same goes for being shy. i guess you have to catch me in between.
add me on facebook or aim.

Hi, I'm Lindsey. I'm from Atco, NJ ( about 45 minutes away from Drexel). I'm majoring in Biomedical Engineering and I might also take German but I'm not sure. Basically I listen to alternative or rock music.. love going to the movies or going to concerts. I've played four years of tennis and its pretty much the only sport I watch religiously on tv and I'm going to NY to see the US open this year. I read a lot like pretty much every night during the summer because there's nothing to do at one in the morning. I also like going down the shore and walking on the boardwalk or going swimming. And playing cards is fun too (does anyone here play Fluxx or Egytian ratscrew?)

ERS is soooo fun... but my reflexes suck... its fun to play when everyone playing is extremely tired because something comes up and it talke 10 seconds to actualy see it

Haha true. I was playing the other night and it was like two in the morning. My friends and I all just sat there staring at the cards and it was like a couple seconds before we were like "ohh!" and slapped. Plus I have the slowest reaction time anyway =P

my reaction time is really slow.

ERS and Fluxx were like the only things that we did in my chem class for the last two weeks of school. I'm amused as long as I have a deck of cards on me haha..
We'd just get a big group and play for like half the day.. every class we weren't doing anything important in haha. My chem class also played this other game which I can't think of the name. You aren't supposed to discuss the rules or something weird and so they made me play by just dealing out seven cards and expecting me to know what to do.. there was a lot of "delay of game", "failure to say thank-you" and I had a ton of cards. There was also some thing where they said "Jo Mama" and "Optimus prime". I kind of halfway understood what they were doing but not really.
And I need to buy my own deck of Fluxx.. its the best game ever and slightly less dangerous than ERS. You really won't get any battle wounds unless your friends get mad for messing up their turn and therefore making them lose.

how do you play?

Basically, ..For Fluxx theres the basic rules (draw one, play one), then there's new rule cards which you can play and they make new rules like 'draw two' or 'keeper limit 2'. you just follow the new rules that are put down. there are action cards which are used only once. they have things like 'trash a keeper' or 'simplify'(get rid of half of the new rules). Then there are goal cards which will have the current goal/way to win the game on it. for example 'squishy chocolate' you need chocolate and the sun keeper cards. Keepers are cards you need to get the goal and to win you have to have both keepers of the goal down in front of you (ie. in play). if they were in your hand it wouldnt count unless you played them on the table during your turn. that was all probably kind of confusing haha

The goal can change and rules can change at any given time.. basically during every turn the game changes so its either by luck that you win or some insane strategy/some luck. A game could last a few minutes or an hour or two. Its seriously the most addicting game I've ever played haha.

I will have to play some time. Teach me... its complicated to understand just from reading it.

yea same here... i have no idea what u guys are talkin about...

its a card game

Yeah its kinda hard to explain haha, but once you start to play a few times its a lot of fun.
