Player #21003
Name: Aganju

United States
Info: from Orlando, FL

Aganjú is the Orisha of volcanos, the wilderness, and the river, in the Yoruba mythology. An Orisha is a spirit or deity that reflects one of the manifestations of Olodumare = God.

My background in strategic games (as Nov 2009):
Chess - I played a lot in regional clubs and leagues in Germany, also some tournaments, in the 80's, and then no game for over 20 years. I'm slowly getting back to my form.
Go - Also in the 80's, I started learning it, but gave up after a month. Never even got a tentative kyu rating.
Twixt - I own a copy of the boardgame, and loved to play it, also a long time ago. I thought I'm pretty good at it, but now I met the real good players.
Reversi, 4 in a Row - played as a teenager. Never realized they are serious strategy games. Get beaten to pulp all the time.
All others - never heard of them before I came on LittleGolem. Been trying them all, I love the word games and StreetSoccer.

'Tot. # of Players' is the number people that play that game on LG
'% that is better' is the percentage of LG players that (currently) have a higher ranking than me
I was proudly playing in SSTT3 for team USA C-!
