Re: Re: a different answer
Your points about calling people Norms and Straights are well-taken. My bad.
I consider myself very well-informed about LARPing. I did it all through my youth from age 5 until age 12 or so. And we played "Killer" in high school. You know, "playing pretend?" But since then I've been at Conventions (well, only one actually, a small one, and the only one...but that's another story) where you had to jump out of the way of the live-action Paranoia players running hither and yon in their get-ups.
Correct. But they are also ten times more weird than other gamers.
