'''The Larpwriter Challenge ''' was a collaboration project between [[Fantasiforbundet]] and [[Education centre "Post"]] to
*Spread the use of live roleplaying games (larps) as an educational tool
*Evolve the knowledge about and use of larps in the Nordic countries
The first larpwriter challenge was announced in the spring of 2010. The finalists were chosen during the fall and the games were played and evaluated at [[Grenselandet]] 2010.
The winner of the Nordic Larpwriter Challenge was [[J. Tuomas Harviainen]] with the game "[[The Tribunal]]", which according to the author himself is a " A participatory scenario about the mechanics of oppression "
In their annoucementannouncement, the jury writes of [[The Tribunal]]:
The Tribunal aims to be a participatory scenario about the mechanics of oppression. This it manages to do with an elegant and easy to grasp design. The character design is in particular effective in how it establishes distinctive characters for a short game of this type. The Tribunal clearly shows how ordinary people become accomplices in the oppression of themselves and others in the machinery of an authoritarian society.
Screwing the Crew is a short larp about open relationships, monogamy and a group of old friends, according to the authors. The jury believes that the game "is a very well written manuscript guiding the facilitator through all aspects of running the game. The game provides a good framework for telling interesting stories about complicated human relationships".
The jury members for the Nordic Larpwriter Challenge were: [[Anita Myhre Andersen]], [[Tor Kjetil Edland]] and [[Aliona Velichko]]
==The Belarussian Larpwriter Challenge==
The winner of the Belarussian larpwriter challenge was Sergey Loparev with the game [[1942 - the Police]].
