TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/56.wav | biggest wiki in the world second biggest wiki in the world with nearly eighty thousand articles is the world of warcraft wiki | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-634.91-642.12-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/57.wav | five million people use it every month they have compiled more information about world of warcraft on the internet than any other topic covered on any other wiki in the world they are building an epic story they are building epic knowledge resource about the world of warcraft okay so these are four superpowers that add up | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-642.12-659.79-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/58.wav | to one thing gamers are super empowered hopeful individuals | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-659.79-666.02-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/59.wav | these are people who believe that they are individually capable of changing the world and the only problem is they believe that they are capable of changing virtual worlds and not the real world that 's the problem that i 'm trying to solve | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-666.02-679.35-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/60.wav | there is an economist named edward castronova his work is brilliant he looks at why people are investing so much time and energy and money in online worlds | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-679.35-688.38-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/61.wav | and he says we 're witnessing what amounts to no less than a mass exodus to virtual worlds and online game environments and he 's an economist so he 's rational and he says | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-688.38-698.65-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/63.wav | not like me i 'm a game designer i 'm exuberant but he says he says | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-700.76-705.4-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/64.wav | that this makes perfect sense because gamers can achieve more in online worlds than they can in real life they can have stronger social relationships in games than they can have in real life they get better feedback and feel more rewarded in games than they do in real life so he says | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-705.4-719.59-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/65.wav | for now it makes perfect sense for gamers to spend more time in virtual worlds than the real world now | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-719.59-725.39-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/66.wav | i also agree that that is rational for now but it is not by any means an optimal situation we have to start making the real world work more like a game so i take my inspiration from something that happened | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-725.39-737.42-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/67.wav | twenty five hundred years ago these are ancient dice made out of sheep 's knuckles right before we had awesome game controlers we had sheep 's knuckles and these represent the first game equipment designed by human beings | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-737.42-751.83-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/68.wav | and if you 're familiar with the work of the ancient greek historian herodotus you might know this history which is the history of who invented games and why | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-751.83-760.51-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/69.wav | herodotus says that games particularly dice games were invented in the kingdom of lydia during a time of famine apparently there was such a severe famine | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-760.51-770.7-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/70.wav | that the king of lydia decided that they had to do something crazy people were suffering people were fighting it was an extreme situation they needed an extreme solution | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-770.7-779.89-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/71.wav | so according to herodotus they invented dice games and they set up a kingdom wide policy | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-779.89-786.05-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/72.wav | on one day everybody would eat and on the next day everybody would play games and they would be so immersed in playing the dice games because games are so engaging and immerse us in such satisfying blissful productivity | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-786.05-798.41-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/73.wav | they would ignore the fact that they had no food to eat and then on the next day they would play games and on the next day they would eat and according to herodotus | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-798.41-807.08-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/74.wav | they passed eighteen years this way surviving through a famine by eating on one day and playing games on the next now this is exactly i think how we 're using games today | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-807.08-817.59-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/75.wav | we 're using games to escape real world suffering we 're using games to get away from everything that 's broken in the real environment everything that 's not satisfying about real life | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-817.59-827.34-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/76.wav | and we 're getting what we need from games but it doesn 't have to end there this is really exciting according to herodotus after eighteen years the famine wasn 't getting better so the king decided they would play one final dice game | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-827.34-842.16-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/77.wav | they divided the entire kingdom in half they played one dice game and the winners of that game got to go | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-842.16-849.25-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/78.wav | on an epic adventure they would leave lydia and they would go out in search of a new place to live leaving behind just enough people | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-849.25-857.44-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/79.wav | to survive on the resources that were available and hopefully to take the civilization somewhere else where they could thrive now this sounds crazy right | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-857.44-865.51-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/80.wav | but recently dna evidence has shown that the etruscans who lead to the roman empire actually share the same dna as the ancient lydians and so | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-865.51-875.44-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/81.wav | recently scientists have suggested that herodotus 's crazy story is actually true and geologists have found evidence of a global cooling that lasted for nearly twenty years that could have explained the famine so this crazy story might be true they might have actually | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-875.44-890.09-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/82.wav | saved their culture by playing games escaping to games for eighteen years and then been so inspired and and knew so much about how to come together with games that they actually saved the entire civilization that way okay we can do that | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-890.09-903.06-<o,f0,female> | |

TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/90.wav | i 'm just going to very briefly show you three games that i 've made that are an attempt to give people the means to create epic wins in their own futures | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-963.93-971.42-<o,f0,female> | |
TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010/91.wav | so this is world without oil we made this game in two thousand and seven this is an online game in which you try to survive an oil shortage | JaneMcGonigal | female | TEDLIUM_release1/test/JaneMcGonigal_2010.wav | JaneMcGonigal-971.42-979.47-<o,f0,female> | |
