Looking For Help
Hey all,
I doodled up a thing for this year’s Golden Cobra, my first attempt at this contest! It’s got a very specific format and it’s one I’m not well versed in: very short form larp. I dunno that anyone has used the term “nanolarp” but that’s what it is. Well, a design fell out of my head so what the heck. Mine’s under 2000 words (well under), and it serves an audience I don’t have locally.
The other thing about this year’s Golden Cobra is that a feedback/playtest round is mandated before you submit your game. I think that’s a great idea and I’d be doing that anyway. In this case, though, the form factor and audience is so narrow and specific that I feel like I need specific feedback with folks with experience playing nanolarps.
I think most folks who’d take a swing at this for me are off to JaLL right now, so I’ll probably repeat my request.
Anyway, if you have a few minutes to read and comment, or better still play (it takes less than 2 hours) and you can self-select into my “experienced nanolarpers only kplsthx” category, please let me know!

I’m not much of a LARPer, but I can have opinions if you need a reader.
Happy to take a quick look! I’ve played a handful of freeform larps
I have zero spoons to help, but nano larp (many in #Feminism frex) works or also commonly, larp poems.
Mo Jave I think the deadline is late September. Could I touch base next month?
No promises, but I can look at it…
Sure Paul Beakley
Randy Lubin do you have an email address? I can’t get Gmail to autofill your stuff.
Never mind! Found your contact stuff.
