Gaming stuff

I used to be extremely active in the MIT Assassins' Guild.
I've been playing Madrigal since the game started in 1999. Madrigal's rules fix a number of the mechanics problems inherent in NERO and other wander-around-in-the-woods-and-hit-people-with-padded-sticks style LARPs.
www.larp.com hosts a fair number of boffer-LARP web sites.
One of the older and more widely franchised boffer LARPs is the New England Roleplaying Organization. I played NERO occasionally since 1991, in three different chapters - Ravenholt, Ashbury, and Avendale - but quit NERO entirely at some point in the 1990s.
Dark Legends of the Shadow Realms was a NERO variant chapter that I NPC'd for a number of years after having punted NERO proper.

I kept run logs for an Amber diceless gaming run that started playing in 1996, but haven't had the time to update them in years.
I'm currently in a Rolemaster run, set in the B5 universe, which has a wiki including run logs.
The predecessor to the B5 run also had a site by the GM and run logs on the web.
The wiki for one of my old Rolemaster campaigns, powered by scripts.mit.edu
