A solution may be to croud-source it. Use the metrics of how users interact in the world to generate "this is interesting" constraints. If the user turns down the music, it might not be interesting. If the user doesn't explore a part of the map, it might not be interesting (or accessible). Humans are good at correlating interesting webpages, search engines are good at mining metrics from what humans do naturally: seeking novelty. Let users generate content as a bi-product of playing the game. This is what Spore does. -- KAS _______________________________________________ fonc mailing list fonc@vpri.org http://vpri.org/mailman/listinfo/fonc
