Was thinking similar thoughts - if the characters are reused at a few parties, meet a ton of people, and those people go on and bring up memorable characters in the future they can eventually connect. Outside validation immediately makes that 'character' a real person to those who met them or read about them.
- blotter_paper 8y agoTo me, the end of the article seemed to suggest that Salem might be a contrived identity used by a larper larping as a larp organizer: >Suddenly I’m curious about this strange person. From the balcony, I ask her where she’s from. >“The U.K.,” she says. >“Where exactly?,” I follow up, wondering if it’s London, Scotland, or wherever. >She squints back up at me, surprised by the question, and repeats, “The U.K.” >I watch her walk quickly down the block, hail a taxi, and drive away forever.
- busterarm 8y agoThe fact that enough of us are a) thinking this b) that such a strange event has such reach, and c) involves Monero, leads me to believe that this is the true purpose of this event series. I do ARGs and Nordic LARPs and generally know of everyone involved in organizing events of this nature and this is totally off my radar.
