Anyone here enjoy LARPing?

NOTE: My apologies if this is in the wrong subforum, I believe the subject counts as a game. Imagination is games, right? Right?? :P

Has anyone ever LARPed a pirate game? For those who are new to the Internet, that's when you basically do a Dungeons & Dragons type game, but in real life. Dungeon master and everything.
It's really quite fun. Back in high school my friends and I had a Pirates Club, we'd get together after school, invent our characters and take it from there. I was Tootsie Hookfinger, the Bard of our crew. My job on board was basically to tell tales of pirates of yore, sing bawdy folk songs and jest for the crew's amusement and morale. It sounds like a simple job, but when the rum gets low, improving morale can be quite the task :rumgone: Plus, I'm not a stranger to picking up a sword, in a pinch!

So, fellow scallywags and thieves, what is your ideal LARPing adventure?

Not sure if this is considered "LARPing" but, there was a moment in time when I was a teenager (haha) and within the church youth-group that I was in, we held a scavenger hunt which encompassed any place and anywhere within my home-town city limits (a town of about 22k people).

Basically, we had about 5 or 6 cars loaded up with people whom did nothing but drive around to search for clues secretly placed at various public locations where the ultimate prize/"treasure chest" would go to the first team whom was savvy enough to decipher all of the clues.

I don't remember which team won (not even sure if it was the team I was with or not) but, it was a ton of fun to compete in a way which required some brain power and a heavy foot (on the gas peddle, lol). :cool:
