Educational XKCD: The map of the internet

Map of the internet

XKCD, a briljant online "webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language" (which has a lot of nice geeky comics), had a comic titled "The map of the internet".

While the comic is primarily for fun, it actually contains factual information, so it was used in my course "Telematics Networks". Nice.

Lextalionis IV: Method to Madness

(Disclaimer: This post is about a game. Most of it is fiction.)

Last weekend was our fourth Lextalionis event, in Heerlen. I'm currently on my way back in the train (4+ hours from Heerlen to Enschede...) and quite exhausted.

I'll not go deeply into the plot of this weekend, but instead go over a few highlights. The in-character context was the mental institution Arcadia, owned by the Malkavian Primogen. The first night was not Elysium and the patients and doctors of the instution were present amongs the vampire guests. This resulted in a very weirdish ambiance, where nutcases and doctors were roaming freely, sometimes even interchanging roles... To top it all off, there were some roaming spirits from long dead patients and doctors.

See more ...
