What's on your mind?

So I haven't been on in a while and go to the irc only to find that it is deserted and chanserv is setting the topics....

[MetalRenard]

It's deserted! Chanserv set the topics!
... All this because I spend less time on there? >.>

i tried larping today. i'd be fine with it if the other people who were involved were cooler. when i saw them in the park last week, they were doing some sort of foam-rubber combat, and it looked cool, so i came back today. big mistake. they were all perfectly nice, but they were all waaaay too into the role play aspect of it. i sit down and we start talking, which eventually leads to hundreds of different stats and rules and attack types and magic and alchemy and the whole time i'm thinking "who has time?" i fenced in highschool, and i hung out with a group of SCA people, who turned out to not really be my 'scene' so i enjoy the combat aspects of it, and appreciate the practice it takes to get good at it. the problem i had with sca was that they were really REALLY into their rules and staying "in period" and a hundred other things that just boiled down to them being jerks... these larp-folk are just really REALLY into all the stats and magic. i should have known i wouldn't fit in when i saw the giant dungeons and dragons guidebook..... they were perfectly nice, it's just not for me.

... LARPing has stats to it? . -. I would've thought it as just chat roleplay... in... person.

Granted maybe some people have stats to their IRC RPs too. Me, my friends, it's all simply judged on the spot.

Oh, puhleeze. I wiped the floor with those guys a long time ago. I larped with some friends when we were around 12-13. We used hard cardboard swords, but with wooden centers... and BROKE them! We played for keeps. I still have one or two of those swords.

When I was in college and got ... hehehe... challenged by one in combat, it was the biggest mistake of his life. I bested six of them in combat. When I twirled that foam longsword behind my back 'Conan' style, the third guy was a bit edgy.

TRUTH!

[KasperKalamity]

yeah, and somehow they do all the calculations with damage and armor on the spot

[DerVVulfman]

5 pts for hit by longsword against plate armor. 8 for damage if wearing chain.
4 pts for hit by warhammer against plate...

Seen it, done it.

On my Mind: I'm having second thoughts on making a UV2 technology database thread. I really want to share my universe (UV2) with Save-Point, I fear it may not get much attention. "Save-point is too remote to make an effective demostration." I believe I'm the only one that can change this. *ego on* I'm taking over!

I'll make this place known for me. Yes, the mission starts. In time, slowly but surely this place will be mine. I wanna be the face. Peaceful take over here we come!

I popped my hip out of socket this morning and it really hurts :(

I finally got my laptop up and running, so now I should be around more often
