Reunions (A Shameless Plea for Science!)

It’s been about five years since you all started at Franklin University, four since you all joined Franklin’s Sci-Fi fantasy club, the FORCe. It’s been a year since graduation. A year since you were all able to really spend time together. This weekend is a time to get together, to catch up, and to enjoy.
Reunions is an experimental LARP, in all meanings of the word. That is, the game itself is experimental, and it is an experiment. The game is set up for research in linguistic anthropology--how the way people talk and who they are go together. In other words, I am not studying LARPing, I am using LARPing to study something for linguistic anthropology. For full details about the game itself and the questionnaire, go to http://www.journeysurveys.com/answer/276
This is the game I plugged at Intercon closing ceremonies, for those who were there.
Thank you all for helping me make my research happen!
Also, if you have any ideas for other good places to plug this, please let me know.
