Leaving Mundania

On 18 May 2012 · 6 Comments

Lizzie Stark blew my mind. I used to say that Nordic Larp was the best book about larp and Organiser une murder party en 6 étapes the best pdf (how to organize a small one-shot larp). I just finished reading Leaving Mundania and now I need to add […]

The one-shot manifesto

On 17 May 2012 · 2 Comments

American larpers should play more one-shot games! In 2007, I contributed a few segments called Little differences to Gamer:The Podcasting, a cool larp podcast. The idea was to add a european perspective to this US-centric podcast via voice messages. In the “Feedback Show #2” episode , I urged Americans to play fewer […]

Badass Swiss larp makeup tutorial – in English

On 9 May 2012 · 1 Comment

Marc “Bomber” Lauper is one of those gifted Swiss larpers who not only create really cool stuff, but don’t mind sharing it during local larp conventions (yay GN’Idée!). He even went the extra mile and translated his tutorials for doing easy and cheap wounds/fresh zombie makeup so that *you* get to try them […]

Lacuna with the in-laws

On 30 April 2012 · 4 Comments

Few things are cooler than having a gamer girlfriend, but having a gamer girlfriend and gamer in-laws is one of them. After several tabletop roleplaying games with her as GM for the postmodern Unknown Armies and as fellow player for the transhumanist Eclipse Phase, I finally volunteered to GM an […]

Solmukohta 2012 – A subjective recap – Part 4

On 24 April 2012 · 8 Comments

This is the final struggle!

 

The Practical Stuff

I’ve already mentioned that Solmukohta isn’t the best convention for practical, hands-on stuff, but here are the most down to earth program items I attended.

The overview of the larp Cost of Living (Russia, 2011) by Alexey Fedoseev, feat. Slava and Diana. […]

On 22 April 2012 · 9 Comments

OK, we’re nearly there. You’re probably just as tired reading this as I am writing this, but I need to get all those impressions down in writing. We all need closure, right?

 

America, fuck yeah!

I was very happily surprised to see a whole bunch of americans at Solmukohta. Not only because it’s nice […]

Solmukohta 2012 – A subjective recap – Part 2

On 19 April 2012 · 4 Comments

After Knudepunkt 2011, I decided to attend Solmukohta 2012 for three main reasons, in no particular order:

meeting larpers from around the world discovering stuff with pure shock value that makes me go «Nordic larpers are sick» discovering stuff that makes me go «hmmm… I’m gonna dump 90% of what this person said but I […]

Solmukohta 2012 – A subjective recap – Part 1

On 17 April 2012 · 18 Comments

Here is my annual recap of the «Nodal Point» Nordic larp convention, held this year near Helsinki, Finland. Can’t wait for next year when, according to the Harviainen scale, these reviews should reach traditional/classic status.

I am sure the comparison has already been done to death, but […]
