For us titwhistles who were unable to attend, due to not having tickets or living on a separate continent, there is an audio file of the whole thing, though I recommend you listen with head phones:

All in all I hope that Yahtzee's fans who do show them selves grow up a bit. It kind of sucks that a lot of the people felt like the event was ruined by people shouting stuff outside.

Thankfully, most of the Q&A seems directed at the board as a group and not at Yahtzee in particular. And Yahtzee does not hesitate to chastise his own fans.

Listening to the recording, it sounds like the fans weren't too disruptive, though the occasional holler got through, and the Portal chorus was audible throughout the last ten minutes or so.

Also, just for the record, a guy towards the end actually did ask:

"With your (something) motif and minimalist stylistic conventions, and avant-garde pacing and (something) technique, what implication do you think the medium of the interactive story is having on Western society as a collective?"

A wonderful example of a question asked solely to be heard asking the question, rather than out of any desire to know the answer.

Yeah, Game On should never do this again, and stick to being an exhibition.

I hope this means that someday someone else will dislodge me from my throne as Yahtzee's Creepiest Fan. It's hard being the king.

I wish I could get snotty at all those "idiots" but I'd be a huge hypocrite if I did. I guess all I can do is be sad about it.

Yahtzee looks seriously pissed in that picture. He looks like he's about to flip out and start killing people while doing handsprings for no reason.

I feel like you were only "creepy" because it was one of Yahtzee's first encounters with a very devoted fan base. All you really did was ask for an autograph.

I feel like the people at the conference may not have been creepy, but they were quite irritating. It seems like you should always at least show a measure of respect for the venue itself that is having the convention/discussion/etc.

Especially since that particular group was very angry, and placed all their anger on a group of people whose only mistake was to misjudge Yahtzee's popularity. That one failure was the source of say, inadequate advertisements about the need of tickets, etc.


.... Meh! I feel weird going so far in depth about a small event, a continent away, that has nothing to do with me whatsoever. So I'll stop now.

Oh come on. If you could kill lots of people while doing handsprings, how much of a reason would you need?
