labcats | T-3 Weeks

jlighton and I went over to

crash_mccormick's and worked on the new larp.

I'd sort of assumed that the temperature in the house was what crash-mccormick wanted it to be, but it turns out that the heat is building heat. In the past, this could be adjusted, but currently, it has two settings: On and Off. It was On. crash-mccormick's thermometer said it was 84 degrees Fahrenheit. We propped open the roof door, which helped.

We did a lot of good gelling work. The bits we came up with are now on the wiki so we know what to expand them into. It turned out that one thing I wanted to do solved another thing I wanted to do, which was nice.

Then, we hit the wall. It was hot. We were tired. We needed a break.

"Only one thing for it," said crash-mccormick. "We must work on a completely new larp, for next year! A one hour larp, no more than 9 characters."

"What about the two hour larp you were talking about?" I asked.

"Doesn't fit the theme. Intercon J's theme is Jungle!"

And, by golly, we have a one hour larp. Well, an outline for it, really. But, we could turn it into a larp in a week, tops.
