Hi all, Though just an acquaintence of Dean, I'm quite saddened by this news. Dean's passing also got posted to rpg.net's LARP forums. I hope people will...
Before I rent a car, can anyone drive me from/to the Boston airport (it was $100 cheaper than Manchester) for Intercon H? I arrive Friday around 1:00pm and...
There is a particular larp that I play in and I think I have the answer why in the last decade it's not been updated. I know the owner wants to sell the game...
That's just mean. We should save this away for the next time you are complaining about people saying negative things about other people on-line. ... [Non-text...
Maybe you should reread what Mr. Collins stated. I have repeatedly said in the past that I shall rebut comments made about me and NERO. The LARPA people will...
I am guessing that Mr. Collins is referring to NERO in his letter. I am not looking to sell NERO for $100,000 - that amount was never in the agenda. The last...
Here is a topic that is not controversial..... Where do you see LARP in 5 Years? I see theme parks and indoor adventure 'warehouses' that are devoted to Live...
... Honestly, my gut reaction to that is "ick". For me, LARP is very much an artform, and like most kinds of art, mass-marketing is unlikely to be kind. The...

An interesting set of projections... Partially it looks odd to me because "LARP" - "Live Action Roleplay" is really a term for two related but very different...

Can you possibly see Joe's point on growing the medium of delivery and advertising? Would that not possibly enhance the LARP interaction as a whole? Remove...
I'm going to agree with Joe on this one. Despite the lack to name the LARP group he was talking about, Jeremie has long been known here for his contempt...
Responding to Nat and Justin For Clarification, I wasn't trying to say that live combat LARP will be the wave of the future. I also recognize the efforts of...
I believe five years ago people said that they saw theme parks in the future for LARPS as well. I would hope that this would come true as it would help to...
... adventure will ... what ... Although I touched upon this briefly on my last email, I will go into more depth with this one. One of the main allures to...
So you see soulless automated assembly line LARP. Gotcha. No thanks. I will instead stick to compelling story and/or character driven LARP and settle for...
I would suggest anyone who hasn't yet to read the Dreampark series by Larry Niven. It gives an excellent example of 'mainstream LARP theme parks'. Now...
... In theory, nothing. The only reason I would tend to think that a theme park-type setup wouldn't tend to produce games that were as deeply-written or...
*This LARPA list has no impact on the LARP community anymore - it became the laughing stock of all LARP groups who had to listen to 5 people bitch and whine...
The fictional Dreampark setting included modern technology (realistic holograms); athletic competition (with and without stories, characters, and advancement);...
The holidays are past and there's...some...snow on the ground and that means that Intercon H, the eleventh annual New England Intercon is coming soon and...
Although the setting has such grand production values, it is not necessary to run a "Disneyland LARP" setting. Sometimes people envision too big - reaching...
