Known Space Poker Championships Pre-Qualification Rounds

     It's been 30 years since the last Known Space Poker Championships. The players have changed, except for a few and the political climate is different but one thing is still the same, every card player worth playing with is trying to get a seat at the BIG GAME.
     MD-100's Capital, CrystalInn City is hosting the first 2 pre-qual rounds, and some of the finest poker players alive will be hitting the tables hoping to make the cut and move on to the next round. Along with them will be some players trying out new systems, or maybe even a card cheat or two.
     After the poker games House Sinclair of the Cartel, the sponsors of the Tournament, and CrystalInn City will host a little party to celebrate the return of the Poker Championships and announce the players who placed in the top slots and are on their way to the BIG GAME.

     The Poker Pre-Qualification LARP will be a testing ground for our rules and ideas which will be employed in our first full weekend LAPR "The Big Game". It will be three sessions, with the first two being poker games. The games will have 5 players and a dealer(GM) and will run up to 2 hours. A player can only be in one of the two games, but is encouraged to play their character later at the party which will be held Saturday Night, as plots will be "hinted to" during the card games that might be of interest to the various players.
     The party will be held Saturday night and will have the 10 poker players (hopefully) and additional characters and "background" folks. The party will be more detailed and plot driven then the poker games, but they wont lack excitement.
     Observers are welcome (and encouraged) to come watch the poker games, and the party will be open to folks that don't want to actually "play" but might be interested in dressing up and adding color and background to the event. They may get swept into the plot depending on what happens, but that depends on the characters....doesn't it?

Lifeboat/Loveboat


     So what happens when the day of your wedding is ruined by the destruction of the Space Liner you're supposed to be married on. You get stranded in a lifepod with the wedding party, the in-laws, and an ex-lover or two what else.

     Lifeboat/Loveboat is a mini-game to be run at Relaxicon. It's a romp through love and hate designed to entertain the GMs and help you practice your "sane" voice.
