One of them even brought a pre-prepared musical spike for the moment when he fell in the final battle against the man who had killed his child eight years ago.Whereupon, the rest of the players described a long moment of silence as he fell slowly down to earth, during which they took turns reading pre-prepared epilogues as they described how the fallen character had changed their lives and what they did later to honor him.Whereupon, I described the triumphant kata of the evil kung-fu villain and qued up the music from the initial fight scene in "Crouching Tiger."That was a great game.</blockquote>
