Dear readers


This is not just any other article. This is my call to you, dear readers. I made some calls before - among others, I asked you to start a larp and realize that every larp you're on is your game.

I wrote larp reviews, I wrote about larp theory, I wrote of my personal experiences as a larper, and I wrote about other related stuff.

I'd like to invite all of you to the comments section of this post. Share your thoughts and your opinions on this blog, what you like and what you don't like. Ask me questions. Tell me what you'd like reading about. Or just drop in to say hi.

    Hi!

    Personally I liked those articles which were about the Croatian larp scene or your own experiences the most - larp history, reviews of events you've been on, local larp news and stuff.
    And the cold weather larping tips. I'm spamming it everywhere where the issue of cold weather comes up.

    Regards:

    Hey,

    I love the blog, keep up the good work. I've already forwarded a couple of your articles to my friends, especially those concerning starting your own game. Seriously, keep writing, the whole thing is pretty cool.

    Cheers,

    I love your reviews of larp events the most :) They are incredibly personal, and at the same time, so professional ;) Personally, I would love to read more about topics such as meta-gaming and character immersion (and I love when you write from the perspective of your characters ;) But that would be the psychologist in me talking ;)), but if you continue your blog just the way it is now, it would still be awesome :)

    You give a personal-perspective kind of review to every larp event, wrapped up in original writing styles. Personal opinions give a better and more realistic 'big picture' about larp communities and larp happenings.
    I respect your effort, and please, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

    I enjoy the larp theory articles the most ;) It seems to me there's never too many of them, especially since I'm kinda a beginner, and just like reading about stuff before i 'immerse' myself totally into something.;)
    Though, the reviews are fun as well, and especially important for some of the larps I'll probably never see in person (international ones in Europe, etc.)
    Thanks for writing.;)

The 15 rules of larp

The following 15 rules (warning: strong language) were written some years ago in Great Britain, and have been pretty much generally accepted on the British larp scene. Especially popular is rule 7 - widely known by its number and commonly considered to be the most imortant rule of all (and I agree). Even the biggest British larp forum has taken Rule7 as its name. The rules have been originally created by the Drunken Monkeys and edited by Rick Wynne who added some extra stuff in the explanations to make them more understandable to international audience (it still contains some British larp lingo though), more work-safe and to throw in his two cents. (copy of the original wording is available here ) 1. Don’t play a mighty warrior; play a warrior and be mighty. Don’t label your character. As soon as you say that you are the best swordsman in the land someone will come along and kick your ass. Just get into the mindset of the person and role-play it out. 2. No one cares about you...

LARPs: The Series interview

One of the most expected new projects in the English-speaking larp world has been the recently announced webseries, called simply "LARPs: The Series". It's not hard to understand why - the "Episode 0" they released has shown a pretty good portrayal of several fantasy larping elements. If you're wondering at the release date of the series, the answer is... today! Episodes 1 and 2 have been released a couple of hours ago, and you'll find them below in the article (and also on the project's website and youtube channel  - the entire first season will be released in the next couple of weeks). However, I had the opportunity to interview several cast and crew members of LARPs: The Series about their project - Jon Verrall, the series writer (who also plays Evan, the GM in the series), and the actors Scott Humphrey (Will), Elizabeth Neale (Shane), Jonathan Silver (Arthur) and Charlotte Rogers (Brittany). This is their story, of how this series came to b...

It's been way too long without any updates

  I'm just back from PoRtaL XII, which was back in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, 6 years after PoRtaL VI , which is - incidentally - only 3 posts below this one on my blog, and I still remember it like it was yesterday. And this means I failed to review the past two year's PoRtaLs, also excellent. Here's some representation for them. Back during PoRtaL 10 in Krakow, I did a presentation called  Designing larps with intent . It was streamed, and can be found on Youtube. For PoRtaL 10, I also wrote and ran a larp Journey to Tau Ceti - an expanded version of the Arrival at Tau Ceti. I was a mess at documenting it, and it still remains in an unpublishable state. Both of these were run on Friday, which means I haven't really see much else on the convention that day, but I did on Saturday, when I was also able to play Ties that Bind larp by Alexandros Alexiou. I skipped Sunday, as we had to go early to drive home. For documentation purposes, full program listing is here . At next year...
