MA is all about what you make of it. MattMatt and I have a goal every game of have fun and "not last". We do something silly every year - one year we skipped down DTD singing the Manson version of Sweet Dreams. This year we randomly shouted names of fruit when we saw other teams. BANANA!!!!!!!!!! POMEGRANATE!!!!!!! No, our method won't work for everyone but it works for us.
We're not the best at puzzles, we're not super competitive and we play to have fun. We play the advanced version because we've been playing for so long now that we know we probably still wouldn't place at Basic and want to play with our friends.
If everything else wasn't crushing down on you right now (and registration was still open) I think the "day at the park" version would be perfect for you guys. The next one isn't until Spring, so you have lots of time to think about if you want to play Basic or if they offer another non-competitive event.
