  • Ludopor – Platform for Creating Word Educational Games
    LudoPor Word Games Creation Platform Samuel José Raposo Vieira Mira March of 2009 Acknowledgements While I have done a lot of work on this project, it would not have been possible without the help of many great people. I would like to thank my mother and my wonderful girlfriend who have encouraged me in everything I have ever done. I also owe a great amount to my thesis supervisor, Rui Prada whose advice and criticism has been critical in this project. Next I would like to thank the Ciberdúvidas community, especially Ana Martins, for having the time and will to try and experiment my prototypes. A special thanks is owed to my good friend António Leonardo and all the users that helped in this project especially the ones in the weekly meetings. 2 Abstract This thesis presents an approach for creating Word Games. We researched word games as Trivial Pursuit, Scrabble and more to establish reasons for their success. After this research we proposed a conceptual model using key concepts present in many of those games. The model defines the Game World with concepts such as the World Representation, Player, Challenges, Links, Goals and Performance Indicators. Then we created LudoPor - a prototype of a platform using some of the referred concepts. The prototype was made using an iterative design starting from paper prototypes to high fidelity prototypes using user evaluation tests to help define the right path. In this task we had the help of many users including persons of Ciberdúvidas (a Portuguese language community). Another objective of LudoPor was to create games for Ciberdúvidas that would be shown in their website.

  • Learning Board Game Rules from an Instruction Manual Chad Mills A
    Learning Board Game Rules from an Instruction Manual Chad Mills A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science University of Washington 2013 Committee: Gina-Anne Levow Fei Xia Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Linguistics – Computational Linguistics ©Copyright 2013 Chad Mills University of Washington Abstract Learning Board Game Rules from an Instruction Manual Chad Mills Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Gina-Anne Levow Department of Linguistics Board game rulebooks offer a convenient scenario for extracting a systematic logical structure from a passage of text since the mechanisms by which board game pieces interact must be fully specified in the rulebook and outside world knowledge is irrelevant to gameplay. A representation was proposed for representing a game’s rules with a tree structure of logically-connected rules, and this problem was shown to be one of a generalized class of problems in mapping text to a hierarchical, logical structure. Then a keyword-based entity- and relation-extraction system was proposed for mapping rulebook text into the corresponding logical representation, which achieved an f-measure of 11% with a high recall but very low precision, due in part to many statements in the rulebook offering strategic advice or elaboration and causing spurious rules to be proposed based on keyword matches. The keyword-based approach was compared to a machine learning approach, and the former dominated with nearly twenty times better precision at the same level of recall. This was due to the large number of rule classes to extract and the relatively small data set given this is a new problem area and all data had to be manually annotated.

  • Brian Munroe Clerk of Courts Bucks County
    Brian Munroe Clerk of Courts Bucks County The Docket March/April 2021 Unclaimed Bail A bail bond allows a defendant to be released from incarceration with conditions and a promise to return for court appearances. Bail is determined by a Magisterial District Judge or a Common Pleas Judge. Bail can be posted by the defendant on their own behalf, by a surety or bail bondsman. If a surety or bail bondsman post the bail, it is their responsibility to ensure the accused appears for their court appointments. During this process bail can be revoked or adjusted. Failure to appear can result in the full amount of the bail to be forfeited to the county. If the offender appears in court and the case has been concluded, the bail will be returned, minus a fee. After a case has been completed, our office is required to wait 30 days before the TYPES OF BAIL refund process can begin.

  • Crossett Library Board Games
    Crossett Library Board Games King of Tokyo is a good one. (basically like the yard game, king of the hill, but on a board game) ​ Catan is a settlers game (like Risk but without the fighting/ combat) x 2 copies plus 5-6 player expansion ​ pack Cyclades is a popular game (also like Risk but in Greek/Roman God pantheon) Also with a cities ​ expansion pack Freedom is a new, award winning game about the abolitionist movement/ underground railroad in the US. ​ River, Mysterious Library, Lighthouse, and Quick are charming little board games from German ​ designers that are very fast to play. For younger gamers. Codenames and Secret Hitler are "hidden identity" games a la Clue although S.H. requires 5+ players, ​ but very fun as long as you get enough players. Elder Sign and Spirit Island are incredibly fun/ incredibly complicated games of monsters and spirits. ​ ​ ​ Munchkins (cards only) and Small World (tiles and board) are fantasy battle games a la Dungeons and ​ ​ ​ Dragons but simplified. Mille Borne is a classic French car racing game. ​ Exploding Kittens, Red Flags, Buzzed, Cards Against Humanity, Bad Choices and What do you Meme? are card games which are really quick and inappropriate at any age. But fun especially at a party ​ with guests who have dirty thoughts. Evolution is an interesting game of species creation with resources going to fur, long necks, burrowing, ​ claws, etc. Centered around a watering hole. Have not played but I learned it and it seems cool. Betrayal at House on the Hill is a mystery house game in which a player turns on the other characters.
