Thanks

9 years ago

I want to thank everyone who commented on my first storygame.  The criticism was well deserved, because the game was mostly spontaneous and for proper execution should have taken more time.  I think I am going to put this project behind me and start a new one. 

It's finally here. The console that you knew was different from all of the others you had ever seen.  The line already stretches half way around the block. Good thing that you've camped out since yesterday. You squirm in anticipation as the men inside the store set up shop. Just let me in already, you think to yourself.  It feels like an eternity waiting for the shop to open. Can't they move any quicker?  Finally, (5 minutes late) the store opens. You rush to the counter, almost knocking down the employee, who opened the door, firstaccess ticket in hand,

"I'll bet your here for that new console," the casheir says. "I am," you say trying to get the conversation over with quickly so you can get home and open your console. "Your lucky," the cashier sighs, reaching for one of the many Playco Stations he has behind the counter . "I would get one myself if I had the money."

"Thanks mister," you say quickly grabbing the Playco station away from him and abruptly ending the conversation. You rush out of the store walking past the now massive and rapidly growing line and begin the five block walk back to your house.

I will spend much more time on this story.  Any comments would be appreciated.
