Ph.D Dissertation on gaming RSS
Taldor (Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Adventure Path, Campaign Setting, Companion Subscriber)

Sorry, I hope this is the place to put this, haven't posted in here before. A link to this paper was posted and I found it absolutely engrossing.

I don't know if others will find it as interesting, but I thought I"d post it here anyway, as I thought it interesting. Besides...if you're going to go to the trouble of doing a dissertation rather than more gaming....might as well do the dissertation on gaming!

:D

Heh, I wonder who will be on his Defense panel!

(I'll feign being bugged that I wasn't asked ;)

It seems like I heard about this somewhere but I can't remeber where. I did just live in the Miami area, though. It would be an interesting Defense to show up to.

2006, so it's probably done. I just found the paper and interviews very interesting, and wanted to share.
