Naked and empty-handed, I ran back to the forest in search of my body. As I approached my corpse, I was attacked by a half-dozen zombies. An hour later, after being continually slaughtered, I decided to call it a night. — Aaron Delwiche —Warning: Do not follow strangers into Kithicor forest at night. (Aaron Delwiche’s Journal)
Delwiche taught “Ethnography of Online Role-Playing Games” at the University of Washington last spring.
