Long past overdue, I Herby announce the winners of the first The Lyceum Archives Story contest!
I thank everyone who entered. You guys did a great job! None of the stories sucked and I'm proud to have been able to get such a great res ponce from such a small gamers community. The awards will be coming soon!
Place the newest items at the top and the oldest at the bottom. When something starts to get old and irreverent move it to Template:Project_notes/Archive.
