Lab 8: Electron Configuration Battleship

My board with an angry looking Meghana (my opponent)

Looking happy even though we want to defeat each other

The biggest challenge I had while playing was getting the hang of saying the electron configurations without needing to look at the reference sheet, and only looking at the periodic table. I was also extremely slow at saying the configurations at first, but gradually became better as I remembered that you can use the noble gases. One thing I learned while playing was that the noble gases can be used as short cuts, and that it is really annoying to say the electron configurations of elements in the 6 or 7p rows.
