SimCity, maybe epistemic. Learn to tear up the road to alleviate traffic. Works in real life. #gamemooc

I think we may have gone beyond the strict definition of epistemic when we include Civilization, Clue, or Roller Coaster Tycoon #gamemooc

RT @chris_saeger: @proximalzone cots and mmorpgs, can they conform to the affinity group idea? -- That's what I want to know. #gamemooc

...based on terrain, topography etc. #gamemooc

...for instance in EVEonline, instead of skill leveling, you could actually try learning about mining or scanning the universe. #gamemooc

I think it would be good for some of these MMORPGs to incorporate a little more real world useful knowledge. #gamemooc

I prefer http://timeanddate.com ... always works for me #gamemooc

Had a good time, thanks for the chat! #gamemooc

Wow! (not WOW) fast hour! #gamemooc

I don't believe hype is itself the problem. I think it is people who put in little effort, or are quickly dismissive of the idea #gamemooc

Helpful, yes. And I think we should all have one (game creators). But there has to be room for exceptions, new ideas #gamemooc

How about points for helping others get through tasks? Badges awarded for successful tutoring? I want to see more collaboration. #gamemooc

Couldn't say, since everything I create is game related. But maybe coworkers would benefit if the workplace were gamified. #gamemooc

Yes. A process. But also a plan. #gamemooc

Gamification is applying game terminology, mechanics, and concepts to non-game situations. #gamemooc

Need to make games that students want to play, and the learning an indirect consequence. #gamemooc

I think the key lies in something mentioned in this week's videos. Don't be too literal! #gamemooc
