i rarely get to to play risk where i live because it's never caught on around here and most of my friends are pretty dumb. however, i often play when when i go visit my mom's side of the family in chicago, and it's not uncommon for us to have 4-5 games a day when i go up. before CC, we all used to win a fairly even amount, i'd estimate pretty close to 1/x number of player in the gien game. when i went recently, however, i won 7 out of 8 games with 4-7 players.. the one i lost was largely because of a 3-way secret alliance made ahead of time (something i'm not used to here).it's possible that this is coincidence, but i'm thinking it all those little things that you pick up as you go along playing here on CC. thanks lack for making my family think i'm a ridiculously good strategist!
