Denuo-U: Blumberg’s Draft Strategies

Posted by Chris Blumberg | September 9, 2010

DenuoU

A long time ago we started a tradition at Denuo. Once a week, someone would teach the rest of the group something. Anything. As you can imagine we’ve managed to cover a broad range of topics since it started.

Somewhere along the line someone thought, “Hey – we should share some of these presentations!” And since we have a website where we can do such things – we’re sharing them here with you.

So in honor of the first official game of NFL Football tonight – Denuo is proud to present its inaugural DenuoU.

Chris Blumberg schooling the group on potential Fantasy Football draft strategies.

Class is in session after the break. Enjoy.

PAX 2010 – Part 1: Ambassadors of Play

As famed developer Warren Spector pointed out in his opening keynote at the Penny Arcade Expo (PAX), gamers have won the attention of the mainstream. Gamers were no longer a subsection of society that gathers late at night around a card table or glowing monitor. Instead, gaming is the largest entertainment pillar in the world and gamers, in various forms, are everywhere you look.

The folks that descended on Seattle were a motley crew, indeed made up of tabletop players, teams of pro Halo players, costumed fans of franchises from the Far East, and t-shirt clad console gamers looking to get their hands on the next big things in gaming. Funnily enough, though, despite the diversity, the most evident feeling from the show floor was the stunning sense of normalcy.
