I considered that carefully and was open to most anything, really. In the end, I guess my own experience with gaming rang too closely to some of the sobbing! Thanks for participating, though. Maybe others will follow the lead and make more copies available? Naw, I'm likely to be the only one silly enough.Damn, I guess I should have also included a sob story, but I thought that would have been cheap.
P.S. I also did a little "investigating" to see if I wasn't being sucked in. Well, even if I was, it has been fun.

My congrats to the winner.

Me too.
Thank you to Yin and to anyone who appreciated the tale. I had wanted to do something clever and funny, but life has a way of interupting many plans. For what it is worth, I assure everyone that the prize will be greatly appreciated by its intended recipient. Have fun everybody, and whack those errant Civs for both of us!
If you aren't confused,
You don't understand.
Sorry again to those who gave great efforts (yes, including CyberShy!). The game, which has never even left its original shipping box, is being shipped today (gee, now that I think about it, I hope they didn't ship me "Barbie's Great Horse Show" by mistake!).
I hope your son enjoys it and that it gives you guys some great moments of bonding.

Well, if it comes on DVD, we'll know!
