Set

Every morning, once I get to my computer I run through a number of usual websites to catch up with the news and such. One of my morning sites is setgame.com, where I play a round of Set every single morning. When I have net access, I don't miss a morning. I've played it for, literally, years.

Once you've solved the puzzle, you can enter a contest. It's usually for another game by the folks that make Set. I have been entering the contest without expecting anything. After all, the odds are pretty bad for winning a drawing, aren't they?

Today I got a package from Set. I checked the website, and sure enough... I was last week's winner! I won a copy of Xactika, which is a game I'm familiar with from when I worked at the Math shop.
