I played Magic: the Gathering on and off from grade school until I started dating. One thing it definitely taught me is the importance of a consistent vocabulary. The rules to the game are written in a sort of legalese - there's some strange wording, but it's all for the sake of precisely indicating how to deal with >99% of all situations. We always kept a rule book around for disputes, and I became the guy entrusted with settling them - interpreting applicable rules and coming up with a judgment. Fast forward a decade and I figured I would try my hand at the LSAT. Lo and behold - I got 172 without ever studying for it. Never went to law school, but analytical thinking is still a useful skill, regardless.
