Title: Raph Koster on the Wisdom (and Madness) of Crowds Post by: ForumBot 0.8 beta on April 19, 2007, 05:12:41 AM Raph Koster on the Wisdom (and Madness) of Crowds
![]() I made an audio recording of his talk that you can find here and the slides can be found on Raph's site here. His laptop locked up during his talk so there's a brief interlude where he talks about one of the slide topics out of order while rebooting his computer and to confuse things a little more he skips some of the ones at the end. Those of you who have read his book A Theory of Fun will recognize many of the lessons he talks about but it's still worth listening to to hear his amusing gaming ancedotes.

Sounds like it must be running SWG 2.0 for an operating system.

on another note, schild smells...like cheese. :nda: Title: Re: Raph Koster on the Wisdom (and Madness) of Crowds Post by: Samwise on April 19, 2007, 09:05:50 PM Anyone working on a transcript? I'll probably do it myself if I can find a couple of hours of spare time somewhere. The slides don't really stand on their own. :-P

I was just down the road at another conference last week!

Title: Re: Raph Koster on the Wisdom (and Madness) of Crowds Post by: Signe on April 23, 2007, 08:05:21 PM Take your time, Raph. The last thing we need is another unfinished book with half the chapters missing at the launch.
