You Don't Have The Industry Without The Hobby
Of course, there are people who make a living from doing this—companies like Paizo, Palladium, Mongoose, and others still have staff that do this full time, not to mention a pool of freelancers that depend on writing opportunities to pay the bills.
Yesterday's awesome interaction with Margaret Weis Productions really got me thinking about how the line is blurred between the hobby and the industry. The professional and the fan in RPGs are often closely tied together, and depending on the situation, the professional in one case may be a fan in another.
There are thousands—THOUSANDS—of RPG systems listed at RPGNow. There are dozens upon dozens upon dozens of games available, some for free, some for $39.99. Assuming that art, mechanics, and writing tastes will vary, what can one game do to give it a boost over another?
Really, as we've seen with the early editions of D&D, if all the gaming companies in all the world closed up shop tomorrow (St. Cuthbert forbid), there are plenty of RPG survivalists with enough gaming material stocked up to play merrily for the rest of their lives. So what can RPG companies offer?
Well, it isn't just releasing a new RPG from an ivory tower, that's for sure. The RPG company today has to strike a personal chord of support, interaction, and empathy with fans. If they've got the talent and the shiny new books, that isn't enough. You need to make people's opinions feel like they count. That doesn't mean adding plasma rifles to your next Bronze Age supplement, but listening and responding to feedback online (even if to just explain your differing position) helps immensely.
Be there to answer questions. Maybe you can't get to every one, but there's nothing more frustrating than feeling like there's no support for a product you just blew $30 on. Even small press companies can ensure they have points of contact prominently listed.
Support doesn't need to be in the shape of new supplements. Palladium fans have been waiting for some sourcebooks for more than a decade, but they know every Holiday season brings a X-Mas Grab Bag, each one complete with a personal touch from the Palladium staff. Sincerity, and taking a moment to add a hint of personal recognition and consideration can make up for a world of difference.
Gamers like sales, like promotions, like special offers. Maybe that means doing a host of YouTube videos about the RPG. Maybe it means writing some bonus downloads, or running a contest. Maybe it means giving fans an outlet to share their creations. Heck, maybe even a "recommend a friend program". But if you aren't excited about promoting and utilizing your game, how is the customer supposed to be? You don't have to be a shill—just be honest and helpful. People respect that a lot more than acting like your ruleset is infallible and your game perfect for everything. Heck, if you prefer a low-key approach, let the product "sell itself", so to speak, but be there for support.
Fact is, you don't need a dedicated forum with hundreds of members to build a community around your game. You can do it by having Alerts set up and following conversation about your game across gaming message boards and blogs. If you follow the gamers, they'll follow you.
I'm not saying anything particularly revolutionary here, but that doesn't mean it isn't worth saying. Fans want to have a relationship with a publisher, they want to feel valued, and they want to feel like they belong. There are too many gaming companies out there for them to feel like they "need" to put up with shoddy behavior.
You can talk industry, you can talk hobby, but if you aren't talking community, then chances are you need some language lessons. Now I'm not a publisher, but I am a fan. And as fans, we know what we want.

One of the things I always try to remember is this.
Pretty much everyone in the Industry got there because of the Hobby. Game Designers are gamers first.
Nearly every designer I know plays a multitude of different games and are very much fans. MWP is not only no exception, but maybe even a prime example of that. I know many of the people at MWP are fans of Unisystem, Cortex, D&D3 and tons of others.
So yeah. It is cool there is an overlap.

My view is that my hobby is creating games for others to play as a hobby. The driving rule James and I have is a simple one: have fun. If we are not having fun designing a game, then we know no one will have fun playing it.
I know my view runs counter to some. My friends thing it is crazy I see Rogue Games as a hobby. Truth is, it is a business and I run it as a business, but, and this is the key, I still keep front and center the fun.
Keeping the fun, and reminding yourself that this is a hobby, keeps the feeling alive. I also play more now, than I ever did while I was freelancing.
Personally, I think if more embrace the "hobby" of the industry, we would see a more positive change in the "industry."
Still what do I know, I am hippie gamer. :P

@Tim: Very good point!
@Richard: I think the enjoyment someone had creating a game usually comes through in reading and playing it.

Great minds think alike. My blog for this morning is on some of these same themes. I don't know if the flood of small press is ultimately good for the hobby or not. It certainly serves to dilute the market a bit, and it's often tough to tell the good stuff from the "meh" which can lead to the idea that ALL small press is "meh." At the same time, the small press option presented to gamers undoubtedly hurts traditional professionals.
I think you're right in that the professional publishers out there, be they big or small, should find it in their best interest to nurture the hobby, lest the find themselves without a customer base OR fans.
- March 30, 2010 at 9:37 AM
- Carpe Guitarrem said...
Oh yeah. I think the really, really cool thing about the RPG industry is that connection. It's one of the few industries where you have the overlap of industry and hobby, and that's great. The RPG industry is a great big community too, and I think that's why I like it so much.

I really think that the customer service, energy and enthusiasm of the staff, and constant interaction with the fan and user base is the big reason Paizo is so well respected and does so well. They are just head and shoulders above everyone else, and I say that as a guy who doesn't play their games.

Bogart Flat-Weave Wool Rug 52 52
Very Pretty Rug Great rug for the price. Color was true to picture and it was a nice flat weave. March 21, 2014
Very pleased with purchase I bought this rug in gray and am very pleased with its quality and color. I was looking for a rug to coordinate with another area rug in the same room and with the Garnet Hill Signature Flannel Paisley comforter cover. The simplicity of the design of the Bogart rug helps it to coordinate with other patterns.. And the rug adds a contemporary touch that livens up the room. February 5, 2014
beatiful rug I bought this on sale in the teal color. Color online is accurate. Rug is a great deal! So pretty and on trend! October 22, 2013
ugly color yellow It looked worn and dirty when it arrived. Should have sent it back but the shipping is too much. The yellow is really bad and the design appears stained. Have no idea why anyone would like it. October 20, 2013
Versatile Runner Rug Most perfect warm shade of grey for my Robin Egg blue room. Couldn't be more pleased, can use it between the x-long beds, or at the end. Very versatile in use and style! October 15, 2013
Sophisticated, dog friendly rug Ordered this for the Great Dane and Husky to rest on while family enjoys TV room. Beautiful and stylish-looking , and machine washes well when needed. Very pleased with the quality and value. August 29, 2013

Answer:The washing instructions are to use a damp cloth for spot cleaning. Suction only vacuum (no beater bar). Turn these so they wear evenly, and if you are going to clean the rug with a solvent make sure that it is tested on a covered
area to avoid any damage to the rug.

Riverfront views, boat museums and parks attract visitors to Clayton, and it's creating a parking crunch. Spaces will be even harder to find with a new hotel breaking ground this spring. YNN's Carmella Mataloni spoke with lawmakers trying to create more room for drivers.
CLAYTON, N.Y. -- There are roughly four hundred parking spots available in downtown Clayton, but that is not enough.
"The issue with parking in this community is one that is really good to have because it means we are doing business," said Dennis Honeywell, Village Trustee.
One of the main parking lots on the old Frink site was bought by the Krog Corporation to build a four-story hotel this spring. 150 spots will be disappearing.
"It wasn't necessarily going to be utilized for that but it has been a great addition to our community to do that for the last two years," said Robert Cantwell, Town Board Member.
A little over a year ago, the town and village board looked into the concerns about parking and traffic flow in the community. Leaders studied future potential parking spots and came up with a few solutions.
Both town and village officials have decided on two parking locations, one being on Webb Street. These parking expansions will help create many needed parking spots.
The second location is on Graves Street. The town will fund this project and the village would be in charge of the other.
"It will be in-house labor. We will use our municipal forces to do all the work in house thus to potentially have cost savings to the community," said Cantwell.
Lot expansion isn't the only solution. Talk about electronic style parking and a trolley system are both in consideration.
"It allows us a system to have someone make money off our parking and yet get our visitors downtown and back to their vehicles," said Honeywell.
Those plans still need more discussion. In the meantime, the parking lot expansion should be completed by spring.

WASHINGTON - The chairman of the D.C. Council wants to push back the date of the primary that's likely to decide the city's next mayor.
The primary is scheduled for April 1, 2014. But Council Chairman Phil Mendelson says that's too early. He introduced legislation Tuesday that would move it to June 11.
The Democratic primary usually decides the mayoral race in the District of Columbia. But the new mayor and other elected officials wouldn't take office until Jan. 1, 2015.
Mayor Vincent Gray hasn't said whether he's seeking re-election and hasn't taken a position on the bill. Several councilmembers may end up running for mayor.
Spring primaries are relatively new to the district. The primary date was moved to April in 2011 so that it would coincide with the presidential primary.

What's on your to do list today?
I need to finish my cover letter and hopefully by the time I finish it, my current manager will have sent me my letter of recommendation. I don't want to have to ask him if he did it yet...but I'm getting impatient. There are two openings for the IT department in the school district we live in and I want one of them, but applying for both. I'm capable of both, but I'd be happier doing the one that pays less...but fortunate to have the one that pays more.

Chicago 2011: 2012 Buick Regal eAssist live in the Windy City

2012 Buick Regal eAssist – Click above for high-res image gallery We received the first details about Buick's new Regal eAssist earlier today, but we've just returned from seeing the car in person before the Chicago Auto Show officially kicks off tomorrow. Visually, the more fuel-efficient Regal looks no different than the standard car, save the addition of eco-friendly 17-inch alloy wheels and low-rolling-resistance tires. What's most important about this car is what's under the hood – a 15-kilowatt electric motor that offers 15 horsepower and 110 pound-feet of torque for... Read More

May 9 - The 2013 Mobile Banking & Commerce Summit, hosted by American Banker and Bank Technology News, will shine on a spotlight on the next generation of mobile banking applications and recent advances in mobile commerce and payments. The event will take place June 3-5 at the InterContinental Miami Hotel in Florida.
The events keynote presentation will be given by mobile banking pioneer and ING Canada Chief Information Officer Charaka Kithulegoda, whose bank was one of the first to let its millions of customers log in to online banking accounts through Facebook. Kithulegodas presentation, The Online, Mobile and Social Banking Experience, will also explore the banks use of advanced security technologies and voice recognition.
As the mobile banking market matures and the number and type of devices escalate, bank executives, CIOs, product managers and developers confront an increasing number of difficult decisions and potential consequences, said Penny Crosman, editor in chief of Bank Technology News and conference chairman. This conference helps decision makers identify and evaluate risk and reward in new program and product development.
During the three-day summit, more than 20 sessions will address a wide range of topics, including: How Mobile Platforms are Revolutionizing Banking; The Value Exchange Among Merchants, Banks and Consumers; and What Banks Have Learned (or Have Yet to Learn) from Payments Start-Ups.
Last year the summit drew nearly 600 financial services executives from organizations such as, Bank of America, Capital One, LivingSocial, Nordstrom, Walmart, AT&T, Verizon, PayPal, Visa, MasterCard Worldwide and American Express.

Hello Teachers/Friends,
I'm wondering if the following open, non-absorptive concentration can lead to jhana with piti/sukha or not? Would it fall into "right concentration" defined by the Buddha?
"With meditation we have the opportunity to contemplate the mind. The silence of the mind is like the space in the room; it is always there, but it is subtle. It doesn't stand out, it doesn't grab your attention. It has no extreme quality which would stimulate and grasp your attention, so you have to pay attention, you have to be attentive. Now one can use the sound of silence (or the primordial sound, sound of the mind, or whatever you want to call it) very skilfully, by bringing it up, paying attention to it. By concentrating your attention on that for a while, it becomes something that you can really begin to know. It is the mode of knowing in which one can reflect. It's not a concentrated state you absorb into, it's not a suppressive kind of concentration. The mind is concentrated in a state of balance and openness, rather than absorbed into an object, so that one can actually think and use that as a way of seeing things in perspective -- letting things go [[let our attachment to things go]]."
"If you are still concentrated on the curtains, or the window or the people, you don't notice the space. But actually you don't have to get rid of all those things to notice the space; instead you begin just to open to the space, to notice it. Rather than focusing your attention on one thing, you are opening the mind completely; you are not choosing an object -- a conditioned object -- but the space where the conditioned objects are."
-- "Noticing Space" by Ajahn Sumedho [http://www.buddhanet.net/budsas/ebud/ebmed040.htm]
Thought Ajahn Sumedho's students and/or other teachers/friends might help me with this question.
Thanks and Metta to all,

Nevertheless, your initial plan of getting T10 after offset hasn't changed much :P
My first 3 purchases were all T10. Went gloves-->shoulders-->chest. Then got the badge cloak cause it's sexy. Used my upgrade token on the chest. When I made these purchases I was thinking very long term as how they'd fare at the 25man heroic versions. I knew I was getting shafted initially by not going after Kraken gloves and Cata chest. I highly doubt Blizzard will buff the T10 to match the armor values of the offset without taking out a lot of stuff on the current setups. Or find a medium at least. If I were you, I wouldn't worry too much over it. I think the ilvl264 T10 (figuring in set bonuses) is supposed to match offset in overall value, and ilvl277 T10 would be superior. This was clearly not the case. You have badge gear that is on par with the equivalent T10 gear. By the time you have access to the ilvl277 all of ICC is open and badges will be coming in at a faster rate.

Vanishing Arctic Ice
The National Snow and Ice Data Center has announced that Arctic sea ice melted to its yearly minimum extent last Sunday, which was the smallest extent since measurements began in 1979 and a whopping 49% below the 1979 to 2000 average. With ice vanishing at rates that exceed even the most sophisticated computer models there is one guarantee, that it's going to shrink even more
We know Arctic sea ice will continue to shrink for two reasons. First, we are continuing to spew greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. And second, solar radiation and melting sea ice interact as a system known as a positive feedback loop. Sunlight that hits white arctic sea ice is largely reflected back to space. Throughout modern civilization Arctic sea ice has acted as a sort of thermostat, regulating the earth's temperature. But as the climate warms, and the Arctic ice melts, the sunlight instead hits much darker seawater. Rather than reflecting that energy back to space, open-ocean waters absorb vastly more of the sun's energy, which in turn warms the water, accelerating the rate of melt.

A Teacher-Driven Approach to 21st-Century Learning in Meridian
Via Tom D'Amico (@TDOttawa) , Tim Malone, Lynnette Van Dyke
Ivon Prefontaine's insight:
I agree that teachers have much to offer and innovation begins with their work and voices. Is it driven? Or is it an invitational and vulnerable approach?
So what has this explosion in technology meant for creativity and learning? According to Robinson, the impact has been enormous. "Tools have extended our physical reach, allowing us to do things physically we couldn't otherwise do, but they've also expanded our minds," he says. "The relationship between tools and intellectual, physical and spiritual development is really powerful."
But while Robinson believes that tools play an important role in creativity, he sees an even higher calling for technology. "The real virtue is not in the tools we create, it is in how we use the tools to create, how creative we become with the tools," he says. "The challenge with technology is not a technological one, it's a spiritual one."
For the best performing schools, technology has become an enabler of creativity and innovation, and Robinson believes it has the potential to do even more. "A lot of advocates of the standards movement think that creativity is some recreational activity, a distraction we don't have time for," he says. "The real situation is that adopting creative approaches to teaching and learning is among the best ways of engaging kids' interests, imagination and therefore, raising standards."
Creativity, as defined by Robinson, is also the basis for life-long entrepreneurship and innovation, highly sought-after in the 21st century workforce. He believes that, by unleashing students' creativity, we can help them develop the kinds of skills that will serve them well in their careers, and as leaders of future generations.
In today's thought-provoking Daily Edventure, Sir Ken and I discuss the state of education, technology and creativity, and what it all means for society. But there's no better way to close out this post than by sharing the sign-off from the always-quotable Robinson's keynote: "If we start to rethink some of the fundamental principles of education, [and] its relationship with technology, there's a better chance that we will create the world that we and our children will want to live in."

Ivon Prefontaine's insight:
"The real virtue is not in the tools we create, it is in how we use the tools to create, how creative we become with the tools," he says. "The challenge with technology is not a technological one, it's a spiritual one."
This is an important consideration. Many so-called tech experts fall short in understanding the key skills are pedagogic/spiritual rather than technical and technological. When we resort to the latter only, we succumb to Technique (Ellul).

Are we sure that not having the Internet at home denies students something. Perhaps, it provides opportunities to wonder differently? Certainly, we have to provide access in School, but that is a different issue.
Ivon Prefontaine's insight:
This is an interesting approach. I am still not clear whether critical digital literacy is part of critical theory, but it does not seem to be. It should be in the sense that the etymological roots of persona suggests the masks we wear and the roles we play in life. What does that mean when we manage our online persona? Is it a free-for-all?
From gibbon
technology and new media have a deep influence on the way we learn as individuals and how learning takes place. Learning used to be the main domain of schools, universities etcetera. These days the acceleration of all sorts of informal and non formal learning is astonishing. Schools, museums, libraries and other 'centers of learning' have to redefine themselves. Every employee has to keep learning in a rapidly changing society. The classroom is flipping but also the museum and the workplace.

We do not learn beyond the curriculum. We learn in ways that make the curriculum come to life. The mystery Skype example has to be part of the curriculum to make sense. That would not be hard to do in most cases. Using digital technologies, is part of some curricula and having conversations with people in other cultures might meet a Social Studies outcome.
Even though they admit their devices distract them from class. Now, some educators are incorporating the digital tools into their teaching.
Ivon Prefontaine's insight:
Who are the experts? Are they in the classroom with students day in and day out? I experienced the debate as one going on over the heads and around teachers and their teaching.
Digital technologies are here to stay and the key is how do we help students with their use?
