[DeeJ Edit]: UPDATE... Spartan Patriarch has won! I think we all know who is the daddy around here. Patriarchy joke. Anyone? Okay. I will have the print signed. SP, I will be in touch to solicit your information, so that you may receive your prize.
All of the submissions were awesome. Each had me wishing you could play this game right now, but that will have to wait. Until then, I like the way you dream.
Keep it up.

I did enjoy these stories, but they are supposed to be anecdotes or as you generalized short stories, most of these are simply descriptions of a setting or a cliffhanger. Most of these are not true short stories, they are more like an introduction, it is like me telling an experience I had like this; One day, my friends and I were at the beach, the sand was incredible, the water looked glorious, the sky was clear, and then we did some stuff. Describing the entire setting and then adding one line of action is not a real story.
