Marscon Programming

Greetings! I am the Masquerade Lounge programming coordinator for Marscon this year (http://marscon.org/2016/index.php) and I wanted to see if anyone from this group is attending who would be interested in helping host a panel about LARPs.

The Masquerade Lounge hosts programming related to cosplay, costumes, make-up, propmaking, and other art related topics. We do have a group who will be hosting a boffer combat related activities, but I would be interested in having a panel that discusses the costumes, weapons rules of play, etc.

If there is interest, feel free to contact me here or at jenmcnitt@yahoo.com.

Thanks!
 
It would best to have chapter staff (i.e. our owner Dave) do this, but if he can't make it, I would be interested in representing Alliance LARP (with permission from the chapter of course).
 
I'm committed to traveling to TC that weekend I think, so have at it, just don't claim you are me ^.^

I might be at Mars con this year. If i see Larp stuff i will swing by.
 
I'm doing the presentation at 4 PM (tentatively) on Saturday. It'll be a 30ish minute basic info session about LARPing in general and specifics about Alliance, followed by Q&A from the audience for the remainder of the time (15-20 minutes).

Peter i can help you with the panel if you want.

So only about a half dozen people showed up or stayed for our panel, after the previous panel about Star Wars filled the room. They were more interested in other types of LARPs than Alliance, specifically SciFi-based, vampires, and non-combat LARPs, which makes sense given the SciFi emphasis of MarsCon. I was hoping for more interest and questions about Alliance, but my overall determination is that this was not the right venue/con for our specific LARP.
