Thursday C&O boardgame night (which shall be renamed Tony Zhentao and I night)... First game: Play It By Ear! It's the game that Tony had, and had some trivia linked with sound clips. Unfortunately for Zhentao, he didn't like these games because of the trivia element, but played on regardless. And he surprised us all by taking an early lead in the game in the animal and musical instrument categories. I had a very slow start, and never recovered, while Tony gradually increased his score by getting questions one at a time, and made good challenges. In the end, Zhentao tried to make this mathematical by considering the scoring opportunities, but he didn't win. Tony did. I lost badly. Final scores: Tony 14, Zhentao 10, Me 5.

Overall, this game is pretty funny to play, and challenging as well. Even though it's a bit outdated, there's still some fun to be had.
