Yeah, multiple views could film and then the final video could be one view primarily but cut to other views for special attacks or something, heh.

I will probably be filming this.........Though, if we do it on monday I'll probably be in my samurai outfit....I don't know.

But, no matter what, this'll be EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Of course you could. O.O It would be great if you could go as Link...not sure what costumes you are planing though

NightLotus · « **Reply #55 on:** February 23, 2009, 01:01:07 pm »

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #56 on:** February 23, 2009, 01:05:02 pm »

I so freaking move that we hold an LARP battlegame at K-con!

Quote from: nikkiolie on February 21, 2009, 09:13:34 pm

Pioneer square would be great XD

Just watch out where you play as there are steps of hard brick to land on if you fell, not soft grass.

Anime/game style only? Then I will be bringing the following characters with me playing the following classes:
Inuyasha with a safe and playable Tetsusaiga (warrior or barbarian) (Inuyasha)
Future Trunks (warrior or wizard) (Dragonball Z)
Jason the Silver Pirate (warrior or wizard) (Pirates of the Caribbean/One Piece?)
and Red the Ninja (warrior or wizard) (Naruto/Ninja Gaiden)
The classes of warrior, wizard, and barbarian are outfitted according to the rules of Amtgard.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #57 on:** February 26, 2009, 02:02:11 pm »

So, people still keen on having this LARP event? ^_^

nikkiolie · « **Reply #58 on:** February 26, 2009, 02:03:15 pm »

I still plan on doing it

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #59 on:** February 26, 2009, 02:06:42 pm »

Yeah, definitely! If not participating, I will at least film. Depends on when during the weekend, but I really do want to participate or be present in some fashion.

Awesome. Who'd you LARP/Cosplay as at SakuraCon '07? Who do you plan on going as for Kumoricon this year?

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #64 on:** March 06, 2009, 01:19:00 pm »

So where would the LARP event take place again, and please say a park near the con, not Pioneer Courthouse Square. Unless, I'm misunderstanding just what kind of LARP we're going for here.

I've been in Amtgard, where there's real combat with safe swords. Get hit in two limbs or anywhere below the head and neck, and you're dead. (No head shots allowed) Plus some verbal enchantments for magic users.

Or are we trying to achieve something like cosplay chess, where the story and combat outcomes are already set and we just act our way through it?

Kairi from KH2 her pink outfit. I'm going as Konan from Naruto Shippuuden [is narutarded]

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #66 on:** March 07, 2009, 06:34:55 pm »

haha, it's alright if you're narutarded. It will make for a good variety of characters in the game. ^_^

Seluecos · « **Reply #67 on:** March 08, 2009, 02:01:14 pm »

As I've said in the FF Battle thread, I'm going to be a Tonberry, so I can shuffle around and *doink* people lol. I'm also going as Shino Aburame, but who I go as to LARP is determined by a lot of things. As it stands currently, I'm interested, but I'll let you guys know for sure after I find out when my previous commitments are. ^_^

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #68 on:** March 08, 2009, 08:37:19 pm »

Well, narutards...prepare to face classic ninja power! Or super saiyan might, or piratical-ness. Yo ho ho!

But I agree, with the multiple of characters from different game and manga lines, the special effects after filming and editing will be crazy and fun to see.

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #69 on:** March 11, 2009, 03:10:25 pm »

Lawl Narutards ftw. Me and a friend were messing around when we got our Akatsuki rings[orochimaru's ring -shudders-] we were all like wonder twin powers activate! and his mom looked at us like we were insane

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #70 on:** March 11, 2009, 05:12:33 pm »

I still need to brush up on editing techniques and make sure I get a really good program by the time Kumoricon gets here. Good thing I've got all Summer! ^_^

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #71 on:** March 12, 2009, 03:28:45 pm »

Thats very true

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #72 on:** March 12, 2009, 05:30:57 pm »

nikkiolie can you add me to the list?

DevinShadowV · « **Reply #73 on:** March 12, 2009, 07:50:23 pm »

I maybe interested is it going to be at Kcon?

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #74 on:** March 12, 2009, 07:54:21 pm »

Yeah, we were thinking about having it after Kumoricon ends on Monday...I think.

it is a holiday you shouldn't have classes

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #77 on:** March 12, 2009, 08:39:50 pm »

And most schools don't start class until the end of September anyway.

Not certain where yet, there are some options. Pioneer Square is one, but we haven't decided yet.

nikkiolie · « **Reply #81 on:** March 15, 2009, 09:26:09 am »

Yeah we were thinking of making this kinda like supper smash brothers style so Pioneer Square would be perfect for that

nikkiolie · « **Reply #82 on:** March 15, 2009, 11:36:57 am »

yes that was the plan >_>

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #83 on:** March 16, 2009, 01:54:13 pm »

I guess I'll start from the top with question 1, 2 and 3:
is anyone invited to come and play? And more personally, may I come and play? Or is this just going to be a private group?

Question 4: are you saying there is a park called Pioneer Square, or do you mean Pioneer Courthouse Square?

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #84 on:** March 16, 2009, 03:14:34 pm »

Yeah, we are referring to Pioneer (Courthouse) Square. Though, to be specific, when you mention the courthouse in the name, it usually refers more to that blocks surrounding the courthouse building (which includes Pioneer Square) than the actual square. But yes, we mean the square, the big brick concourse with the multiple tiers (which are perfect for the style of LARP that we wanted to get going).

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #85 on:** March 16, 2009, 03:19:39 pm »

PCS sounds like a good place to do this. It's certainly large enough to hold all of us.

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #86 on:** March 18, 2009, 01:12:07 am »

I guess I'll have to see it to understand it.

The square is a spacious place to play, I'm just concerned that if someone trips and falls in combat, that they'll be eating bricks, or if brought to their knees with a leg hit, it's going to be rough on them to kneel.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #87 on:** March 18, 2009, 07:36:31 am »

I don't think you understand exactly how this is being planned. It's called a LARP but none of us are taking it to the degrees of official LARP's that you are used to. I think it is basically just people play-battling, I'm sure people will be able to watch their surroundings and be careful.

But this can all be sorted out later.

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #88 on:** March 18, 2009, 03:16:04 pm »

thats a good point Eve, I kinda figured that this wasn't one of the other LARPs I've done [skinned knees, skinned elbows, nearly broken noes]

That's all I needed to know. I'd still like to take part in this unless all the spots are full.

You know who you remind me of Eve? Barrett from FFVII

Konan-ChanX3 · « **Reply #94 on:** March 19, 2009, 08:54:43 am »

nikkiolie · « **Reply #95 on:** March 19, 2009, 09:00:25 am »

Yeah he has cosplayed Barret for the past two years

(maybe more....but I think just two >_>) He is going to cosplay him again too

haha, that is so awesome. Yeah, I've cosplayed Barret since 2007 and I do plan to do him again this year. I'm glad you think that, though. Just further confirms that I was meant to be Barret. ^_^

nikkiolie · « **Reply #97 on:** March 19, 2009, 10:34:29 am »

I was right about the years

Yeah you make a good Barret. We will have a sweet ff7 group this year *can't wait*

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #98 on:** March 19, 2009, 01:33:17 pm »

Maybe this year you could attach a Pocky dispensing barrel. That would be a funny limit move for the LARP movie. BIG POCKY SHOT! And for Smash Bros. effect, it would be after getting the smash ball...

Ohhh smackerdoodle! The smash ball could be a giant toy ball or a pinata, and when someone hits it enough times, they gain their super/limit move! Maybe if someone wearing a mushroom hat could run across the "stage" and when someone grabs it, double their size on camera with digital effects after shooting.

how many good ideas did I just blast out there just now?

soundninja12 · « **Reply #99 on:** March 22, 2009, 08:05:01 pm »

That sounds like it'd be totally fun. If you want me in anything, just ask!
I don't know if I have any good cosplay for a mock battle, because only one of them actually fights....
