role-playing game for Android devices based on the classic game Diablo. RogueAndroid provides an easy-to-use interface including "swiping" technology to view other sections of the map, "touch" technology to attack and travel, and "auto pickup" of items to increase attack and defense bonuses. In RogueAndroid, the game’s quest is to search the dungeon for the Red Dragon and to slay it. Many dangerous enemies are encountered along the way and a fight is always just around the corner. Magic potions can be used to heal and restore hit points lost during battles with monsters. Other items such as swords and shields can be used to raise attack and defense to increase the chance of defeating the Red Dragon and winning the game. Currently RogueAndroid

  • What Is IFGS?
    What is IFGS? The International Fantasy Gaming Society is a non-profit, Live Action Role Playing (LARP) organization dedicated to having fun! The IFGS has a “class” based rule system which is rich in detail, yet easy to learn and easy to use. If you are not familiar with LARPing, it is one-part improvisational theatre, one- part reenactment, and one-part role- playing game in which the participants actually attempt all of the actions that their characters want to perform in the game Want to sneak past those guards? With the aid of your own physical skills, plus some in-game rules, you get to try to get by unseen. Want to talk the wizard out of his magical staff? Convince him, in character, that he should give it to you. Want to slay that red dragon? Take your sword and attack it. IFGS mixes your real-world abilities with fantastical skills and spells to allow you to live out a new adventure every time you play IFGS games usually involve a Quest of some kind, and YOU are the Hero! You can use you real-world skills, and the skills and abilities of your character’s class to achieve your goal! Combat IFGS games involve a varying amount of mock combat situations. LARP Combat is a whole lot of fun, and is very safe. The rules in force and weapons that are used strongly reinforce the safety of these events. Participants are briefed on safety before each IFGS event, and all events are supervised. The rulebook explains how the combat system works.

  • Personality and Character Selection in World of Warcraft
    Personality and Character Selection in World of Warcraft Ian D. Mosley: McNair Scholar Dr. Steven Patrick: Mentor Sociology Abstract The present study examined the relationship between players’ personality characteristics and their online behaviors, including character faction, class selection, and game play in the massively multiplayer online role playing game the World of Warcraft (WoW). Data were collected from 205 WoW players who participated in an online survey that included the Big 5 Personality Inventory (Extroversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Emotional Stability and Openness to Experience) and portions of the California Personality Index, as well as original questions pertaining to WoW (Goldberg, et al. 2006). Statistical analysis showed that although there was not a significant relationship between player personality traits and their class or faction selection, there were significant relationships between personality traits and engagement in player versus player game play. Introduction Game developers go to great lengths to ensure that game worlds are realistic to players. This is perhaps most present in World of Warcraft (WoW). Although the overarching theme of the game may be fantasy, there are several elements to the game that parallel our own world and history (Krzywinslca, 2006). These parallels further the attachment players develop to the characters they portray, and the transference players experience from their game world interaction into their out of game lives. WoW and other games are now so well constructed that it has even been suggested that they could be “…windows into and catalysts in existing relationships in the material world” (Yee, 2006, p. 312). In WoW and all other massively multi-player online role playing games (MMORPG’s) players self select into specific racial and cultural stereotypes.

  • Gramma -- Alison Mcmahan: Verbal-Visual-Virtual: a Muddy History
    Gramma -- Alison McMahan: Verbal-Visual-Virtual: A MUDdy History http://genesis.ee.auth.gr/dimakis/Gramma/7/03-Mcmahan.htm Verbal-Visual-Virtual: A MUDdy History Alison McMahan In his book, The Rise of the Network Society, Manuel Castells approaches the idea of a networked society from an economic perspective. He claims that “Capitalism itself has undergone a process of profound restructuring”, a process that is still underway. “As a consequence of this general overhauling of the capitalist system…we have witnessed… the incorporation of valuable segments of economies throughout the world into an interdependent system working as a unit in real time… a new communication system, increasingly speaking a universal, digital language” (Castells 1). Castells points out that this new communications system and the concomitant social structure has its effects on how identity is defined. The more networked we are, the more priority we attach to our sense of individual identity; “societies are increasingly structured around a bipolar opposition between the Net and the Self ” (3). He defines networks as follows: A network is a set of interconnected nodes. A node is the point at which a curve intersects itself. What a node is, concretely speaking, depends on the kind of concrete networks of which we speak. Networks are open structures, able to expand without limits, integrating new nodes as long as they are able to communicate within the network…. A network-based social structure is a highly dynamic, open system, susceptible to innovating without threatening its balance. [The goal of the network society is] the supersession of space and the annihilation of time.

Throughout middle school and high school my friends and I would gather almost every weekend, spending hours using numbers, probability, and optimization to build models that we could use to simulate almost anything. That’s right. My big secret is simple. I was a high school mathematical modeler. Of course, our weekend mathematical models didn’t bear any direct relationship to the models we explored in our mathematics and science classes.
