"When the Cat's Away" August Event Reviews

+ Plus, it was kinda cool to be one of the first characters to perform a hit on a nobleman.

Yes......The first character to make a hit on a Noble...........Sure.......

And my only con:
- Vertical swings. I only saw two this event, but they are still very dangerous. I'm not sure if this is still being issued as a warning during newbie speeches, but i remember when i started a year ago that these were not allowed. I've been hit by hard swings, but nothing hurts worse than a down swing to the head. Please, I don't want to see myself or another person get seriously injured from these. It may seem cool and the best way to swing at the time, but it just isnt safe.

I have to agree with Uther. I saw some pretty bad swings this event, I don't know if it was because it was in the heat of the moment or what.

Vertical swings don't need to happen at all. As well as baseball bat swings (more than 45 degree swing), a simple flick of the wrist, or a slight bend from the elbow will do.




On another note, thanks for a great game. I have never been apart of such a large and fresh batch of new LARPers before. You guys are great.
