Il y a des livres comme ça, qu’on vous prête quand on a rien demandé. On se dit d’abord que merde, sa pile à lire est déjà assez grande comme ça. Et puis on se dit que si la personne s’est donné le mal de vous apporter le bouquin, ça vaut peut-être le coup.

Tadjélé – récits d’exil

On 12 May 2013 · 5 Comments

Attention trucs persos, passez si ça vous gave, c’est mon blog, je fais ce que je veux.

1. Les disclaimers d’usage à mes critiques d’oeuvres de Léo Henry et Jacques Mucchielli s’appliquent. Je ne connais pas bien Stéphane Perger, le troisième créateur/illustrateur, mais il m’a peint de telles dédicaces que je ne suis [...]

Knutepunkt 2013 – A subjective recap – Part 4 aka The End, Finally!

On 2 May 2013 · 1 Comment

 

So much for keeping this to three parts… Maybe next year it’ll be shorter. Maybe. At least I’m done, and I can use my evenings for other things than typing con reports. Enjoy the grand finale.

 

Collaborative vs. competitive larping

A good example of taking a KP-style look at an “obvious” topic in [...]

Knutepunkt 2013 – A subjective recap – Part 3

On 29 April 2013 · 3 Comments

Friday morning is the time I started missing items due a subtle combination of having to finish slides and nocturnal hedonism (for the more hormonal among you, this does include drinking, good conversation, learning about stuff etc, i.e. all the non-official-larp-item-related pleasures that derive from nightly activities at KP. For more, read this page [...]

Note: if I forgot your name or you want it removed etc, please let me know, in general all corrections welcome (contact form or comments).

Thursday was the day of migration to the official convention site, KP magic proving that dragging a suitcase in cold weather and a 1h30-long bus ride can fly by [...]

Knutepunkt 2013 – A subjective recap – Part 1

On 23 April 2013 · 2 Comments

Here is my traditional report of the “nodal point” Nordic larp convention, this year held in Haraldvangen, Norway. For general frivolous comments, I guess part 1 of my Solmukohta 2012 report still applies. Maybe more waxed moustaches for men and more orange hair for women than last year? Anyway, on to the goodies.

La croisière s’accuse, une murder party en téléchargement gratuit

On 3 April 2013 · 1 Comment

C’était la fin des années 90 et comme beaucoup de rôlistes j’avais commencé le GN sans le savoir avec les Soirées Enquêtes de SPSR. Ma première fut l’excellente Dieu est mort de G.E. Ranne qui permettait de jouer physiquement les patrons de ses personnages d’INS/MV, au chaud, avec ses potes, sans avoir à [...]

Larp critique: the steampunk “Noces de plomb” by S.T.I.M.

On 1 April 2013 · 3 Comments

Five days after -and still reeling from- that Swedish Battlestar Galactica larp, it was time to try something completely different. But on a Friday night, after a long work week, three hours of total train rides to and from snow-covered La-Chaux-de-Fonds, having to book a hotel room as game finished after the last [...]

Larp critique: The Monitor Celestra Battlestar Galactica larp

On 17 March 2013 · 9 Comments

Warning: this piece is longer and even more «me, myself and I» than my previous larp critiques (click here for demonic, post-apocalyptic and steampunk examples). Photos are copyright (their authors). If you’re in a hurry, scroll down to “in a nutshell”.

For my in-character recap, click here.
