WOW! The level of TWW dorkdom pales in comparison to this. Even gaming online like WoW doesn't really hold a candle. Anybody seen this movie or heard/taken part in Larping before?

there was a larp thing on campus back in the day. i passed by them once. noticed only the outcast kids were in it. weird. very weird.

funny/odd story. apparently all groups have their mentally odd individuals, and larp groups are no exception. i found out that a girl i had class with had been fucking some, if not all the members of the group. what struck me as funny is that it's probably the only sex they ever got.

I like the spells section. They have to speak the incantation for the spell and then throw the appropriate colored spell ball to complete the spell. OH WOW!

i think LARPing is so totally lame, but that trailer makes it so epic.

I swear there's something that looks exactly like a Darth Vader helmet in that movie.

How do they keep track of who dies and stuff in the battles?

11/13/2007 2:34:10 AM

Haha, I'd love to see this movie.

hahahaha that reminds of this thing I did in high school called "Melee Club"

It was mostly just a bunch of people who would make swords and bows and tridents out of PVC pipes and foam padding and go beat the shit out of each other on a soccer field. Although we didn't dress up. And we didn't act like we were some kind of medieval resistance force and talk like it was the middle ages or whatever.

i remember me and the neighborhood kids "learned" how to fence using a bunch of the metal rods that make up the frames of window screens... they bent like hell whenever they clashed together, and we cut each other up so many times with the sharp corners on the ends. it's amazing none of us got tetanus.
