MMORPG's & Online Gaming

(September 8, 2009 at 1:12 pm)dry land fish Wrote: Do any of you get foam swords and go outside and hit eachother with them? There is a park here where people do that. They dress up and then have battles. There may be a hundred or so people doing it. Used to a friend and myself would go and park in the parking lot and watch them while we smoked pot. It was great entertainment.

This is called Live Action Role Play or LARP for short. I was involved in making armour and weapons for these people, though I never participated in LARP . It might not look it from the outside, but there are very strict rules to this, and getting weapons in specifications and still look good is one hell of an undertaking. Our best selling weapons were Katanas (we were one of the few that actually got the curve right, even with the carbon rod center, and still looked sleak) and frying pans (don't ask me why, we made them as a joke weapon once and the became the hottest selling item at a major LARP event in the UK).

btw: a dirigible is a kind of a blimp if you are more familiar with that term.
Best regards,
