So Saturday night and all of Sunday was written off thanks to my house-mate having a house-party before going out for drinks, follow by early morning noise and more drinks… finally Sunday lots of hangover rugby players around the house. Preventing any real work.
I have been struggling with this concept ever since I was eight. Narrative vs Ludology. By Narrative I mean story-telling and Ludology I mean pure game play. Introduction.
Hi all, before you ask I don't know how many parts this series will have. I have a rough outline of what I want to work through but nothing solid. Once it's all done I do plan to compile it into a more structured article. On a side note Game Horizon is tomorrow.
Okay I've found some topics I want to write a lot about, so I'm going to make a compromise and break them into smaller posts. Once they are all done I'll put together a complete article or podcast. First some news updates.
Too much squirrely goodness... must consume the Squirrel! Okay So I'm back from Gencon just want to get the first load off my skull then I'll do a proper post later. It was great, four days of roleplaying. Trip down was made fun with having allies.
. Sinfest makes this little grin appear on my face as I plot world domination. Its not like I want to rule the world I just have to for the sake of others..... no really its an act of mercy. So I got a listing on facebook, got a shout from a ghost of the past, missed my podcast on the weekend.
Contry to popular belief I dont like sitting down. Its something i do while using a computer true, by choice however my machine is on a low lying desk. I like the floor, no cushions on the floor just a nice carpet.
Okay so I've arrived. I think the chronological breakdown the best. So let it begin. Tuesday. Wake up at the crack of dawn and rush packing, I end up forgetting one or two things but nothing serious. However around 0800 I'm out of the door. I arrive at the airport.
Crazy Bon-bon chocolate covered Bitemes eating all the ones and zero dancing on the line. I think about what would happen if my tongue was cut out. I would talk in bloody spurts of silence. No acting, roleplaying, shouting, kissing would be handicapped....
First and foremost I'm a geek. Yes I am I do a lot of crazy stuff but at the end of the day I'm a geek girl who goes fan girl at the worst possible times. As a tribute to my geekiness I have posted a brief history of my LARP character. Maga Ta Sheel.
