[Announce] Dragon-Comp
dcorn...@my-deja.com
would be cool to dispell the notion that a cool or funny game cannot be
written with dragons.
So, the premise is to write a short game about one or more dragons and
make it as funny as possible.
Extra points for Damsels in distress, castles, and, well, you know,
anything _fantasy_ related.
I'll accept submissions through April 15th and put them up on a web
page all at once.

Of course my own thoughts on this idea are to create some sort of
'odd-couple' satire with a dragon and Adam Thornton as unwilling
partners in some grand adventure....

Ohhhhh, what a v-e-r-y interesting idea. Not to undermine my own comp -- THE IF
ART SHOW 2000 -- DEADLINE MARCH 24th -- http://members.aol.com/iffyart.
Of course there isn't that much overlap and I am so sorely tempted.
And in the process, Adam and the dragon end up friends, right? Real good
buddies, in fact, huh?
Hehehe.

"Drunkard and Dragon.
One's a hard-bitten, hard-drinking PI, exiled from the police force a
decade ago for shtupping the Captain's wife. The other's a rookie cop
of his first beat.
Now they're partners. And it's going to take both of them to Save The
World."

I bet he enters a teaser for 'Stiffy Makane: The Undiscovered Country'.

Aha. I've figured out his diabolical plan. His Dragon-Comp entry will
have no dragons in it, until the very end, at which point a dragon
will enter the room wearing a sandwich board on which is painted,
"Play Stiffy Makane: The Undiscovered Country."
After you read the sandwich board, the dragon will self-destruct.

Dagnabbit, Adam, now you've got *me* thinking! --I can't help wondering
if you're going to implement SHTUPP as a valid verb synonym in "Stiffy
Makane: The Undiscovered Country."
This could keep me awake all night if I let it torment me...

Shouldn't the word be "foreplay" and not "teaser"?

Normally, yes. However, this IS Stiffy Makane we're talking about.

How 'bout a dragon being trampled to death and torn to pieces by a pack
of angry dinosaurs?

No, I think you need to do more than enter; I think you are morally
obligated to win. You owe it to dragonkind. :P
