Bridge
My favorite pastime. Sadly this challenging game requires too much introductory knowledge for most of modern society, who want a 'quick-fix'. The average age of the ACBL, grows by almost one year per year. I really hope the game does not die out.
I have also written a few python scripts for various bridge purposes: on the software page.
