LARP column on Examiner.com was created by Matt D (MattD)
For those of you that missed the obnoxious Facebook post, I now offically work for The Allentown Examiner as their designated LARP columnist.  I am aiming for 2-5 articles a week on just about anything you can think of LARP related.  Feel free to click the link, add me as a subscription, and visit often (Shameless plug).  I actually get paid based on the number of visits and subscriptions.  

So if anyone has any ideas for an article, or would like to be featured in an interview, please contact me.  Names can only be featured if you ask me to, or I have permission.

Perhaps a feature on Calimacil weapons :-P. I'd do a plug for you on Calimacil's blog in exchange...

"Ok we can attack... but if we miss, we'll hit the villagers."
"I'm willing to take that chance!"

Things I am no longer allowed to do in an RPG :
31. The backup trap handler is not whoever has the most HP at the time.
73. Not allowed to name my cudgel Ceremonial Whoopass Stick.
74. My thief's battle cry is not "Run And Live"

I help run a LARP just east of Chicago IL.  Would be happy to represent that it is an actual BSA event and offical Venture Crew

We hold in our hands the harvest of what we have sown in Hope. Do we sow for Good? or for Evil?

Perhaps a column on all weapons would be better?  I would be willing to give you an assist on that, Matt.

Op-Ed piece on LARPing and how groups such as LARPs require/need state parks.  Without state parks available for public use and such (or lack of funding to support them)... such groups have issues and problems.

Perhaps an article on boffer constuction I'm thinking about when I first made my staff I had to go based on the methods for making swords.
