Audio Interviews with Various Gamers

[Tormsskull]

Hi all,

I did this on a different site a few years back and it was fairly well received. Curious to see if there is any interest here.

The basic principle is that forum members volunteer to partake in an audio interview. Other forum members can submit questions. The person to be interviewed will be given the questions beforehand and can reject any or all of them if they choose.

Then at the arranged date/time, interview is undertaken via online voice software (ventrilo or similar) and recorded. The mp3 of the recording is then posted for others to listen to and comment on.

So, first, gauging interest. Is anyone interested in hearing thoughts from some of the forum goers? Anyone who's opinion you find to be helpful that you'd like to ask more questions of?

Secondly, assuming there is any interest in the idea, anyone interested in being interviewed in such a fashion?

Thanks.

The idea's interesting, but the format seems a bit haphazard. It might be more interesting to come up with a few Pathfinder related topics like "dealing with problem players," "adapting the rules to your campaign," and "bringing divisive social issues into your game."

Then post to the forum asking for 'experts,' and host a rotating discussion panel. I'd actually listen to that.

I think it sounds interesting. Can we listen to the old interviews anywhere?

Unfortunately I was unable to track the old interviews down. They were a mix of gamer commentary and personal questions because that community wanted to get to know the individuals that they see post often better.

My guess would be that the users of this site would be more concerned with the non-personal stuff, but I could be wrong.
