Just what we need, another AW game, :banana:

The idea is to write a short, one-paragraph synopsis of a book, myth, or 'bedtime story', and whoever guesses the story and author (if there is one) gets to be 'it' and write the next synopsis.

Ready?

The English pilot of a Dutch vessel is shipwrecked in 16th century Japan, and becomes a pawn in the great game between feuding warlords for control of the country.

:D:D:D

You're going to have to make it a little tougher than that.

Albedo won, so it's his turn to come up with the synopsis; he never did, so I figured he kind of lost interest.

If he isn't, and you guys want to play, I'll do another one, and we can start again.

:D:D:D

Unless the thread doesn't belong in the forum, I tend to let sinking ships, well, sink. Sometimes newbies will come along, read every thread in a forum, and revive an old thread that we thought was dead...

It ain't over 'till it's over.

Ok :)

When a scientist violates the rules of man and God in an attempt to create life in his laboratory, the resulting experiment exacts a terrible price. Rejected by a horrified society, his tale is the quintessence of pride going before a fall.

I think KTC is right. Either that, or Bill Gates's The Story of Microsoft.

Sorry to leave the game hanging. I was busy, check Office Party to see why.

So you're next, KTC. You're 'it' :)

I don't know it at all; or at least, I don't think I do. I don't know of a book or movie where all the clues would fit. But, that's just me. Zonk might; he just has a way of disappearing for a while and then showing back up. I guess he's out doing one of his drug deals!

I'm stuck, too. Can I play?

She suffers the torment of bigotry and injustice of the south, only to realize the face of brutality and indifference lies within her own people, those she loves. Not until she endures a lifetime of labored challenge does she find the reward of self-worth and the family that was taken from her years ago.
