I got introduced to Settlers by one of my classmates in rabbinical school. Awesome game! I like several versions of Risk okay, they just take a long time to play....
Personally, I am a fiend for Scrabble-- I play it in both English and Hebrew. With English Scrabble, my house rule is that if it appears in the Oxford English Dictionary, you can play it, which makes for a sprightly game. I used to be a Medieval Literature Major, and one of my mom's PhD's is in English Lit, so she and I occasionally play Scrabble with the rule that we can only use words coined before 1750. That's a tough game.
I like Trivial Pursuits, also. Useless knowledge is my primary asset, so I do pretty well at games like Trivial Pursuits (or Jeopardy, if they would ever call me).
