The board game of the gods: Malefiz.

Especially if you alter the rules somewhat (add more barricades, allow collecting an arbitrary number of barricades,...).

I wonder if that one is available in China?

A small vocab related question: Is there a difference between

当机 and

死机?

I am with RJ.

I which your new venture big success*

*(but secretly hope it won't become so big that it tears you away from here - for egoistical reasons, I admit).

The 3-2-combination is a killer, indeed. The issue is that you have to start the 2nd-tone higher than in isolation, or at least that is my feeling.

From the expansion:

自认世界上有钱担心别人主意

Two questions on the second part of the sentence:

1. So 打钱 ("hit money") can be used for stealing?

2. The construction 担心...主意 gives me a headache. He fears *the idea* of other people stealing his money?
I would probably simply say:
担心别人钱.
Would that be OK also?

John,

不吃早饭不行。早饭是一天三顿饭中第一重要的, 最有营养的。

我可以证明。 一天不吃早饭就会有严重的头疼! 抛弃早饭的健康材料(浓缩咖啡加上浓缩咖啡)对身体不好。

The color of the Qing emperor?
