That's not really what I meant. I was trying to illustrate that most
"GAMERS" are not necessarily "LARPers" whereas most "LARPers" are also
"GAMERS".

I don't think we want to promote the idea that UA is a live-action game to
people that have not been exposed to it, because well, it isn't. That may
cause them to form opinions that are not necessarily true.

Get people playing UA as it was intended. If they want to get up and move
around when they get home, great, but let's not push that at GenCon of all
places.
