Anders Højsted, Danish role-player and game researcher, needs a hand.

A few good gamers are needed, to test some game-related things for his final paper. If you know someone who fits these requirements, or fit them yourself, don’t hesitate to phone Anders: 50 53 15 38 or email andersh@itu.dk.

> Testere søges!

> Vi er i testfasen af vores speciale som omhandler analoge metoder til at teste computerspilskoncepter.

> Vi har brug frivillige testere som kan være med til at afprøve testene. Dette er IKKE en digital spiltest, men indebærer vurderinger af æstetik og historie i et computerspilkoncept. Testene finder sted på IT-Universitetet i København torsdag-søndag mellem 10-21. Du skal være computerspiller, men må ikke have spillet Surreal Games’™ spil “The Suffering”. Hver testen tager cirka 2 timer; du må gerne MEGET melde dig til mere end en.

> Hvis du er interesseret i at opleve hvordan man tester digitale computerspilkoncepter med analoge metoder, så skriv til
andersh@itu.dk eller ring på 50 53 15 38.

> Mvh., Anders

See, he really needs you. Go ahead, call.

Daen notes that we’re getting new buses, perhaps.

I’d like to see how they’re different from the bus stock we now ride in. But hey, upgrades are cool.

Coders Matt Webb and Ben Cerveny are digital age heroes, making a highly interesting thing with playsh, **the playful shell**.

Matt [talks about it in his blog](http://interconnected.org/home/2006/03/15/playsh).

Tech keywords: the Python programming language, the Twisted framework, fragments of Zope framework, parts of MOO game software LamdaMOO, SSH as lifestyle.

Culture keywords: Marshall Berman’s “All that is solid melts into air”, Infocom’s text adventures, social patterns.

I am psyched, stoked, enthusiastic. Emailed mr Webb asking for a mailing list or the like. This project cries out “Dance with me! I’m available!”
