Listened to 2/3rds of it last night. It was interesting, even if was about RTS games . Unfortunately some of the voices were a little obscured by background noise but overall it''s pretty good. Many thanks to Dave for recording the session. I hope you do the same again next year.
There was a guy early on in the recording who mentioned something about developing a sort of intelligence quotient for computer game AI (like chess ratings). He then went on to explain why he wanted to do this. It sounded very original but it was difficult to follow the thread of the short discussion which followed. Can anyone present at that roundtable remember what was said?
nb. Dave, I noticed about midway, that the audio did actually work in stereo - you may have a dodgy mike or something.

The Round Table Rough Cut Bootleg
The chess guy was very bizarre. I am not entirely sure what he wanted. I believe he wanted to be able to map the chess ratings over onto difficulty settings so that he could pit two computer players of selected ratings against each other. Why that specifically needed to be mapped to chess ratings, I don''t know. That''s the only arbitrary part of the process. *shrug*

I got the impression (and my imagination could be making most of this up!) that he wanted to be able to assign a specific ''amount'' of IQ to a game agent so he could create a game (an RTS type game) where the player had to manage the AI of his team in some way - the AI would be another resource to juggle.
This, on the surface, sounded like quite an interesting concept and could possibly introduce some novel gameplay. Conundrums like shall I go for 5 village idiots and a genius or play it safe with 6 middle-of-the-road types?
