Nobody Told Me

When I signed up to teach with a team in China, nobody told me that to be cool, I should know how to play Settlers of Catan. This is a board game of strategy where you try and build your houses and roads on different plots of land. You then get to keep those resources for the plot of land where you built your house. There are also numbers on each plot of land. If your number is rolled, you get those resources. Then with your resources, you can build more houses and roads (to earn more points.) Anyways, our team likes to play this game. I have not won this whole year. Pathetic? Yes, I do think so...to lose continually is not good for anyone's self-image. Any ideas?
