GM Academy Workshop: Understanding Player Types April 30, 2014 (Wednesday) 9:00 PM – 10:00 PM Eastern Standard Time How to get information from your players/players that are terrible about describing their interests The 8 Kinds of Fun What to do with information about your players The next one in the hopper is my absolute personal favorite, and quite topical after this last weeks decussion. This workshop will be focused on understanding players, player types, and most importantly what to do with this information. For the last few months the 8 kinds of fun have completely reshaped the way I look at GM-plot-system-player interaction. Just to give a small taste, here are the 8 kinds of fun: Sensation Fantasy Narrative Challenge Fellowship Discovery Expression Submission Excited yet? I am. Also, we had some attendance issues with the last workshop. The issue was of course the tremendous response, and the surprise discovery of limits to our table size. So we have a solution for this and future workshops. Direct participation at the table will be limited to 8 open slots (the max we can get at the table). If you want to be in one of these slots you will need to join Your GM Academy . We will also be live streaming the workshop on Your GM Academy YouTube page. A link will be posted here in this thread 1 hour before the event begins. I look forward to seeing you at the table! -[GM] Keaggan
