Kyra and I just played a couple of games of Dominion… my favorite game (and maybe hers as well).
I won both of them, which makes the fifth and sixth win in a row. A long time ago we decided that there are different terms for each win in a series:
1 win – just a win, nothing special
2 wins – coincidence
3 wins – lucky
4 wins – a streak
5 wins – all hail the king
6 wins – an empire
7 wins – a dynasty!
So I’m at the level of an empire now, and another win will give me a dynasty. Since the two of us are pretty evenly matched, it’s rare that we go much beyond “lucky”.
I have nine Dominion sets, and the latest one, Empires, was just released. I’ve already ordered it and expect it within a week. Awesome.
It’ll be sad when Kyra heads off to college, because I won’t have anyone who wants to play against me…
