LARP Source

Silel­dar, Magic Elven Sword

I get email; A lot of email.  Prob­a­bly upwards of 400 emails each day.  I don’t think it’s very sur­pris­ing that I’m selec­tive about the emails that I read.  If it doesn’t per­tain to my LARP busi­ness, this blog, or some­one impor­tant I may not read it right away.

Yet once a month I get an email and no mat­ter what I’m doing I open it up and click the link con­tained within.  This par­tic­u­lar email is LARP related, and I am inter­ested in what the per­son has to say in gen­eral, but that isn’t why I open the email.

I want to see if I’ve won.

Each month the good peo­ple at Cal­i­macil choose to just give away one of their finely crafted weapons and I want to see if this month it’s going to be me.

Many of you might already be aware of their draw and some of you might already have put your name in but this is such an awe­some oppor­tu­nity that I wanted to be sure every­one knows how to get their hands on such great weapons.

As I noted every month Cal­i­macil does a draw to see who has won one of their weapons.  How do you get into said draw? It’s easy and it’s free.

Dark Angel, Apocalypse’s Riders

All you have to do is sign up to the Cal­i­macil mail­ing list and you are auto­mat­i­cally entered each month.  That means that you receive 1 or 2 emails from them a month (they may change that… I can’t guar­an­tee) and in return each and every month they give you a bal­lot in their draw.

They have given a weapon away every month since Sep­tem­ber 2008 and with the $150.00 CDN price range the win­ners have received great pieces like the Silel­dar, the Dark Angel, and their new High­lander design.

High­lander, The Scot­tish Claymore

Now they do have some rules for their draw, such as lim­i­ta­tions on win­ning coun­tries, etc. but all it takes is a few min­utes of read­ing the guide­lines and you could be in the winner’s cir­cle like these LARPers.

I have yet to receive an email from the Cal­i­macil mail­ing list that wasn’t per­ti­nent to LARP or a quick mes­sage to let me know where they will be to get great deals on their items.  And I’ve never received more than 2 emails a month to date.

This may all change in the future (I’ve sug­gested that they use their mail­ing list more) but either way it’s a hell-of-a deal.

You can sign up to their mail­ing list, read the con­test rules and get a look at the kinds of weapons you are eli­gi­ble to win all here.

Cheers,

Kevin
