I must admit I only understood about one word in five in this post, but had to smile at “casual games are not fun, they are aggrivating and a waste of time.”

I was taught mancala by a visiting student from Guatamala a few years ago. He plays the “african variant” (I can’t pretend I fully understand what that means) but it includes a rule that says if you can take a turn that prevents your opponent from playing next (ie you can “win”) you must play differently. “Casual” games exist solely to waste time. It sounds like mission accomplished!
