Make it Juicy: easy methods to make your games more engaging

Here is our agenda for this meeting:

• Greetings and introductions

• Make it Juicy: 10 easy methods to make your games more engaging -- presented by Taro Omiya

• Wandering Automata: Simple techniques for making your Non-Player Characters do something -- presented by me

• Discussion of future meeting topics and logistics

I received very little response to my poll about preferred meeting locations. Given that the attendees last time liked the Guilderland Library, we will meet there again. This time we have the Normanskill Room which is smaller than the Helderberg Room we had last time. This room only accommodates 50 rather than 120. So arrive early; we will have to start turning folks away starting with the 51st to arrive. :)
