I recommend creating good characters of the same level with the same character concepts, then beat them over the head with them.
Wouldnt do me much good. They're older than I am, and 'older equals smarter'. It's truly fun to play board and card games with them. I usually pick up the system quicker than them, and to counter that they all end up playing against me instead of each other. It ensures I dont win much, but it also ensures that none of them win frequently either. I dont think they realize they're doing it either. I brought over Cthulhu Munchkin and it was assumed that since I owned it I was the major threat so they all pretty much ganged up on me madness/curse wise. While they did this a new kid won the game easily in a few turns because they were ignoring him trying to take out 'the obvious threat'. One of them even said "My God that came out of nowhere" referring to the kids win.
Seriously.
I really need to find a good PbP game...
