I Win! A Competitive Gamer Keeps Score

Why did Shayalyn celebrate pwning her husband and son in a family video game? Because she could, of course...and because she's a gamer with a competitive spirit. Shayalyn talks about how Vanguard: Saga of Heroes will take the competition to the Station Players Web-based scoreboard. Are you a competitor? Are you addicted to having your name on leader boards?

"My husband, the Red Wizard, is hanging back away from danger, slinging spells like he always does. He's a bit of a...cautious player. (Since our Gauntlet days I've found that the word “wuss” upsets the Red Wizard, so I refrain from using it.) My son, the Blue Knight, is flailing away, and desperately trying to stay out front where he can hack and slash effectively like a good little tank. The only problem is that his mother, the Green Archer (yeah, that’s me), is shoving him out of the way and charging the front line ferociously, slinging arrows and racking up a massive bad guy body count."
