Coming up on 6 years of JTF's passing. I'm blown away that this thread is still going...the last post being just over 5 years after his death. Speaks volumes of the man and the people who loved him. It reminds me, again, of one of the last things he had ever said to me, right after his...

"Miss you, pal." Last thing John ever said to me. I return the sentiment ten fold. It's been 3 years, John, so you had better have one heck of a LARP event waiting for us on the other side.

Amen. It really says what kind of wonderful person John was that, nearly 3 years since his death, time has not quite healed all of our wounds yet. That's what kind of presence he had and the impact he made in our lives...even if one only knew him for a short time.

Lol. I never understood that. Why not use playing cards instead? Anything's better than the visual of black clad vampires resolving conflicts with Rock, Paper, Scissors. :lol:

What I find odd is that I've met d&d table top gamers who think LARPing is goofy. Which seems strange to me that, of all people, they'd be the most likely to be open to it, since LARPs are basically an extension of the table top game.

Mine will always be towards the end of the Return of the Jedi...having the great fortune of being a part of the original kid generation of Star Wars fans, when the phenomenon was still just exploding into pop culture, I got to see it in the theaters when it debuted. When the Emperor was zapping...

I've been doing this for a long time (since 1996), so, over that period, I've found some workable explanations. I usually tell them that it's kind of like Paintball, but with padded swords, meets the Ren Faire. For more lengthy discussions, especially with people skeptical of the idea...I...

Congratulations!

Grim, Your merry tone is in contrast with your name, like the burning touch of ice upon flesh. It can confuse people. I like that. -Bijorgrin the Jotun-Trickster -------------------------------

Ah, mi ava, Fate willing, all will be well and I will return to Fairdale...there all of the Rom shall meet and talk of our people and what must next be done! Abamano Boboko Valrune -----------------------------------------------------------------

My Brothers and Sister in Glory, Our heroes' journey has begun! Remember: We must find our way to The Road of Ravens, the path through the Enchanted Mists that will take us to Asbrand's Well...but we must first venture to the plane of Arathil , to the Mound of Statues, the dark lair of Queen...

My children, The Spirit Meet at the last gathering has profoundly changed everything! It was an honor to stand beside you brave and true Rom and bear witness to both the appearance of Lady Fate and Thessaly, the mother of the clans! I leave Fairdale, knowing that the future safety of our...

Hail, good people! I believe in redemption for past crimes! Magistrate, let them say that they are sorry and forgive them! It worked wonders for me! I have been a greater villain than the Black Forest will ever be (whether blamed or otherwise)--and I was a great hero, before that--and yet I...

Re: Fire Extinguishers I could design a suggested layout for fire supression, depending on water supply hose (if any) or how many fire extinguishers we have.

LOL...I know...can you get them to write a song about the Vansir? :P
