MatchMacker: Love at First LARP (Introduction)


Let’s get this started on the right foot. You do know what larping is, right?

Straight from Wikipedia:
A live action role-playing game (LARP) is a form of role-playing game where the participants physically act out their characters’ actions. The first LARPs were run in the late 1970s, inspired by role-playing games and genre fiction. The activity gained international popularity during the 1980s.

Mayhaps you’ve seen the wildly popular “lightning bolt” video on YouTube? As Mark puts it, poetry in motion:

I have a fascination with larpers; I am pretty sure a few friends of mine from elementary school larp to this day. I’m also pretty sure that they aren’t getting any action anytime soon. And that’s a shame. So I’ve decided to make a new series, entitled “MatchMaker: Love at First LARP” in which I scour the internet for eligible bachelors and match them with larp-loving companions.

Finally - I beg and plead, do not confuse larp with larb, which is a meat salad from Laos.

    Um… good luck with that. you’d probably have better luck throwing rocks,sorry “lightning bolts” at unsuspecting womens heads until they pass out, then letting the larp-ers have their way with them.

    Actually, you’d be amazed at the number of girls involved. It’s just as much as men, if not more. Seems like the girls are all about the dress-up part of LARPing, while the guys just want to battle.
