We've come a long way since pong was released way back in 1972 and it became the first commercially successful video game. Since then, video games have gone from being accessible through coin operated machines at the local Pizza Hut, to becoming twenty-four seven obsessions for gamers through at-home-gaming consoles with life-like graphics. Parents, we need to set time limits on how much our kids play, and boundaries on what games they can play. Experts warn that we should also watch out for video game addiction. Look for these signs of addiction: thinking about gaming all or a lot of the time. Feeling bad when you can't play. Needing to spend more and more time playing to feel good. Not being able to quit or even play less. Having problems at work, school, or home because of gaming. Finally, lying to people close to you about how much time you are playing. Parents, teach your kids to number their days so that they may, as Psalm 90 says, get a heart of wisdom.

How do I know if I have a serious problem with electronic and online games? I'll admit I'm an avid player. I go straight to the computer every night after work and spend the rest of the evening there. It's a way to rest and relax after a hard day on the job. The only problem is that I'm also a married man and a father, and my wife is beginning to complain. She told me the other day that she thinks I'm addicted to gaming. Is that even possible?

What do you think of Fang gang?What do you know about this project? Yeah. Well, shout out to our producer, Alyssa, who has she kind of introduced us or at least my self-defined gang, uh, it's her profile pictures. So that's when I saw it, I was like, oh, they're pretty cute. You know? So they fit that aesthetic of a great profile picture. The community looks awesome.Uh, very supportive, you know, all throughout Twitter and discourse. So it should be a good episode. Definitely. We always like focusing on teams with strong communities, right? I mean, community is so important in the NFT space. If you want to make it longterm, shout out to our chat. I'm seeing lots of familiar faces that have been on lots of our shows with us.So shout out to you all in the chat and if you're new here, let us know in the chat as well. Let us know. Hey, it's my first episode. And maybe we will give you a shout out during the episode. Mass before we bring on, uh, the Fang gang team. I think we have a trailer to play, to get hyped for this interview.Should we roll that trailer? Absolutely. Anybody watching though, we need you guys to hype it up with us. Put that like button down below and let's hype this up. Let's make this intro great. These always get me hyped up for the interview.Oh, come on. Look at that. Look at that. Shout out to our producer, Alyssa for making that wonderful trailer video. I mean, math, this makes me just want to play the game. I don't even know. Uh, I mean, I know we've got the interview, but I mean, if you have not played the fan gang game yet, uh, to anyone in the chat, make sure you check that out and we're going to hear more about that game during the interview.So without further ado, let me bring on the co-founders of Fang gang. We've got pocket and June sheet joining us on the roadmap what's going on. Hey. Of course, of course. And that trailer video by our own producer, Alyssa highlighting the Fang gang game, a super exciting project to talk about. Uh, let me go ahead and kick off the questions here before we get into Fang gang.One of the things we always like to ask teams is what was your history like before you created the project? You know, were you involved in other MFTs? Did you hold NFTs or was this a completely new space to you? So I'll, I'll start with pocket here to kick things off. Awesome. So, uh, I've joined the NFT space back in March, beginning of March or, uh, end of February.And, uh, I've been, uh, I started experimenting, so I've been a designer and, uh, uh, want to be artists for all my life. And so I found a space through to try some stuff here. So I've launched, uh, uh, experimental collection. It was my first one. It, it didn't go anywhere big, uh, but it was a way to learn. And then a while later I launched my, uh, uh, the collection that actually, uh, when I got my nickname from, which is crypto or backend, uh, where I did, uh, our Packers for ID, like, uh, over 50, uh, in pixel format.So that's how I started. And then of course I started as a creator, but quickly, uh, started to be a collector as most of the artists in this space. Uh, and I met June, she along the way, uh, we, we joined the same chat room, uh, I think back in March too. And we started talking and, uh, that's what that is to creating fan gang, uh, in August.So it was a short but intense ride so far. Perfect room. Was it? Uh, it was, uh, uh, Twitter, uh, chat with a lot of artists, like, uh, people that were starting at the same time as this, uh, like crypto burbs was there, uh, June. She was there. I know, uh, uh, hash vestors was there like some names that are being talked about nowadays, uh, started with us right there.Awesome. Jinshi same question for you. Uh, what's your, uh, intro to NFTs look like here. Um, so also back in March, like Bucca set, um, my brother had told me about NFTs, uh, because of their crypto punk hype was real back then. And, um, well, as, as a, as a studying a multimedia designer artists, um, I thought I would hop in and just create some stuff.So I kicked it off with a personal collection, uh, based around doge because there was the high back down of course. Um, and I made some pixel dogies out of those. Um, after that, I started to look at more of the collecting side of things. Uh, so I branched out my collection quite a bit, um, met amazing new artists, um, and just, uh, made many more connections in the NFD space.I think that's, that's key to, uh, to anyone who's trying to hop in. So, uh, there was a lot of fun. And then I think maybe in July, we started working on fan gang and, uh, the rest is history. Awesome. Yeah. Give us some more, uh, behind the scenes, you know, you too, Matt, and then, you know, how did the idea for fan gang come to be?And, and then maybe June she talk about the, the artwork, right? What was the inspiration, how did this artwork come to be? Um, I don't know. Basically we wanted to create a, a unique character and not link it directly to a certain type of animal. It's still a mystery to our community. What type of animal?Thanks there is. And that's, that's part of the fun, obviously. Uh, so we wanted to create a unique character that is not necessarily animal. Like I said, uh, I think most inspiration for me personally came from, uh, more old timey cartoons, maybe Felix, the cat, stuff like that. Um, 'cause I love that stuff. And I wanted to incorporate that into this design and that pocket.And I went back and forth, designing the base of the character, a lot of iterations, a lot of sketches, a lot of discussing. And, uh, we ended up with this beautiful creature. Awesome. And PACA, you know, uh, same to you. Uh, you know, you met June, she, you came up with the idea, give us the behind the scenes. You know, why fan gang, why this style of artwork and project, uh, for this.Well, I think may and June, she are pretty much aligned when it comes to the, the inspirations of fanging. Uh, actually one of the things that got me here and when we were experimenting, we, we looked at that a lot, uh, was vinyl toys because, uh, when we started it, uh, we had the idea of going beyond an NFT collection, like creating an IP.And building up on that. So that's what, uh, that's, that's one of the things we wanted with the characters is that they could be, uh, they could be used in different media, different formats and, and above all, we wanted people to be able to remix them to which happens so far. So we launched a, uh, uh, an art contest, I think about a month ago.Uh, and, and, and that's, that's the confirmation we needed that we were doing what we propose ourselves to do, because people were able to, uh, to grab the, the, the, the most iconic traces of the characters and, and, uh, redo them in their own style. So I think, uh, when, when creating the characters, these, this concern we had, uh, actually, uh, worked, ended up.Love that. So pocket June sheet, let's talk a little bit about the recent airdrop that you guys sent to everyone who had delisted or listed for one Eve. Can you guys tell us a little bit more about that? Um, let's start with you, do you and cheat. All right. So we always had in mind that ever since we started the diamond facts club, which was a, I think halfway through September, uh, pocket came up with the ID to, to do this, to reward holders and active community members, especially.Um, so that's when we started to give away 0.18 or at one faster every single day, uh, to everyone who, well, like you said, the, their Franks or list above one eighth. Um, and we wanted to do something extra. I know like giving back a bit of is already cool, but we wanted to do an add drop as well. And we recently hired a new developer to work with us.Shout out to reveal if you're watching. To do ad reps and stuff like that. So that's more, uh, easy to us to do that right now. And one day pocket DME with this amazing artwork, he made it all himself, no discussing or back and forth or iterations. And he made this and I was just amazed by it by it. And I thought let's, let's add up this to our diamonds banks club members.Yeah. That's awesome. So, um, parka, why do you guys do the daily diamond fangs raffle? Um, and you know, why is this important for the committee? Uh, well, first of all, I think it's, it's a good way to keep the community engaged. And, uh, when we launched we wanted the community to be, uh, one of, uh, one of its most, uh, strong points.So, uh, we've been working, uh, on that daily, beyond the, the diamond banks club. Uh, we, we try to reward our holders constantly. Uh, like we did an airdrop on Halloween and we're trying to, uh, do, uh, games daily. We do a lot of stuff, uh, to, to keep the community engaged. So the diamond thanks club is not only a way to, to, to reward our holders, but it's also a way to express our creativity so we can do stuff like this, like the diamond, thanks to God, uh, just because we want to, and we can reward our holders with that.So, uh, it's, it's, uh, a way to do, to build on community. Love that. So speaking of community, can you guys tell us a little bit about the Fang runner week three contests, you know, the high scores in the game, what are your guys' high scores? And do you guys put a game? Yeah,I've been trying to break 15 K for a while, but I can't quite get there. It's hard. It's hard, but I mean, there's, I think, uh, the high score so far is like 24 K on the first week. And that's nuts because when, when I'm on 12 30, 13, K I'm already stressing and sweating a lot. So this is, this is, this is not, uh, but we've been having a lot of fun with Fang runner, I think.Uh, well, it's, it's another way to reward the community as, uh, as the diamond. Thanks. Uh, we, we tried when we launched the game, it's just the promotional game. It's not nothing too big yet, but, uh, we, we, we launched the game, uh, along with a pixel thanks collection. Uh, but when we, when we, when we propose to do that, we wanted to reward players and we, again, we wanted the community to be engaged with the project.So, uh, one way to do it is to rewards, uh, holders, uh, and players above all, uh, uh, every week, uh, for their, uh, crazy runs like those 24 K that I think it was invalid by gut. So we've been rewarding so far, um, with, uh, special pixel fangs, special peaks of thanks there's for the collection. We created them specially for this, uh, but, uh, we have something planned for the F for the fifth week that we can't reveal yet, but it's, it won't be an NFT.What used to be something. Uh, but you'll have to stay around the city to see it. And that's in what, two weeks you said two weeks yet. Nice. Yeah. So can you guys tell us, so will the pixel fangs be expanded then? Or is it going to be something completely different from the NFTs, like you said,I think it was talking about the price. Yeah. So in two weeks we have a physical price for any thing, runner competitors. Um, but we, we are, uh, in talks to expand the game later on. Yeah. We want to do much more with it. Uh, just a matter of time, basically. Nice man. And, uh, especial note for this one, we've been working with pixel hands on, on pixel fangs and the Fang runner game.Uh, and we actually want to keep on working with him, uh, everything pixel related because he's the pixel king. So, uh, I'm sure we will expense, uh, Uh, we've been working on that. We can share much yet, but we've been working on it. Awesome. And we asked people in the chat to drop their high scores in the chat.I saw, you know, I think, uh, 8,000, uh, 4,000. Um, but yeah, it looks like you've got a lot of people that play that game. I know I'm going to be playing it over and over now that I know what some of the high scores are to beat here. Um, but it it's just so addicting. Uh, you know, another common question we ask, right?When we have teams on is when merge. So is merchandise a part of the plan going forward and when will we get an update on the.Um, so merge was something we had in mind from basically the very first date, um, because the longterm vision for fan gang, eventually it's just expanding it into a brand, um, something much more, um, than just your avatar. Um, so merge was something really big and something we're really excited for. Uh, we often call it a premium merge merge store because we want to do a little more than most projects do a lot of projects, have a really cool merge, but we want to take it a step further and add some very exciting merge items, as well as non wearable items and stuff like that.I'm currently in the process of sketching, a lot of designs and patterns for the clothing items. Uh, so it's starting to take shape. Um, um, and I hope we can release that end of the year, beginning of next. Yeah. And actually it's still still about merge. We, when we launched banksters, uh, if I don't know if you've noticed it already, but, uh, some of the factors of, uh, some specific brands that we created for the collection, like the wild fangs, uh, and the three little piggies and, uh, uh, by 12th grade is some of them Lupa.And, uh, our idea is to expand those, uh, into the real March. So, uh, we'll probably have some wild fangs merge, t-shirts hoodies and whatnot. So that that's, that's something we planned from the start. And that's why this process is only happening now, after we launch a bunch of things, because we really want to focus on this and, and do it properly, you know, as, as June, she said, premium merge store.Awesome love that. I know there's going to be a lot of excited fans out there to get their hands on that merge. Um, you know, this show is called the roadmap. Uh, you know, so another big highlight is we always like to talk about, you know, the roadmap and what's next. So I saw a comment already in the chat from third, I won saying, can you talk about Fang city?So if you guys can share a little bit about Fang city and that roadmap, uh, for our viewers, Yeah, absolutely. Actually, I've been drawing all day for new thanks city. So I just stopped for the, this, this live stream, but it's been our focus lately. Uh, so June she has been working on Merck and I've been drawing for new thanks CD, mostly.Uh, and, uh, I think the, this started as a community project. So this, this wasn't something that was on our roadmap, uh, uh, since the beginning, but our, our current dev reel, uh, came to us with an idea of developing, uh, that, that new Fang CD we talked about before, uh, eight into a, a hub, a place where, uh, you can, uh, search for everything, uh, Fang, gang related.So, so far we have a few ideas in mind, something, and, uh, it will probably, uh, stop. Uh, just with the game room and the merge store, uh, and the two, two or three other rooms, but our idea is to expand it a long time. So, uh, when you, when you enter new thank city, you'll be able to name your faster, tell his backstory and then roam around and, and interact with other fencers.Um, but it will be a long-term project. So when we launch it, we'll probably have like three or four buildings, but, uh, as, as we go, uh, as we go down the roads, we, we could add more things. So it's, it's a dynamic websites, uh, to say, so I don't know if you want to add something. Um, and that's about it. I'm super high for it.And, uh, I can't wait to expand that as well. I think it's cool that we have stuff that we can expand later on like Fang runner is basically the core of what we wanted to make and people are enjoying it and we're having fun with it. We are rewarding the community with it. Uh, but we are expanding that and same for new fact city.It's something we want to release and people have fun with and also expand later on. Perfect. Yeah. I mean, that's awesome to hear more about what's ahead and pocket also that you're working on the artwork. Um, you know, and thanks for taking a small break to join us on the stream today. We appreciate that.Um, well, uh, another thing we always like to ask the teams, and this can be a difficult one, you know, especially for the artist, is we like to hear what are your favorite traits, um, from Fang city? So, uh, June G let's start with you. Oh man grills, grill gang all the way. Fucking grill myself. Really? My favorite.Yeah. Um, besides that I think, uh, the for code is amazing. Um, And the wild fangs, uh, all the hoodies and stuff like that. They, the caps they have on it's dopest. Fuck. I would wear that in real life. There you go. Ask me suits too. Yeah. Awesome. Yeah, we got to see the fur coat here a while. We're trying to pull that up a parka.Oh, there it is. Haka over to you. Um, what are some of your favorite traits in the, in the series here? Just check my PFP. You'll see a four codes. So that's definitely one of my favorites. Uh, I'm chain gang of everything that has changed. So basically, uh, the tank top and the four coats are two of those. Uh, and then I'm a separate for bunny.Heres I love them. I think they're workout. Breeding. So check those two and then there's there's well, all the wild things, uh, merge, uh, speaks to me. I love it. Uh, and there's more, I think it's hard to pick one, you know, I love almost all of them. That's awesome. If there's one with the fur and a grills, that'd be awesome too.Oh, there's not. Yeah. There's no. Yeah. Oh man. That'd be awesome. So guys, we, you guys had a ho how a wean costs contests, uh, earlier this last month here. Uh, will there be more holiday contests coming up, you know, since we're approaching holiday season here? Yeah, man, we, uh, we have something for Christmas lined up, well, lined up where we're discussing it right now.Thinking of cool ideas. Slowly starting to work on it. Um, uh, but it's tough because we're also working on merge in New York city and everything coming out. It's, it's a lot, it's a big package, but the Halloween, uh, costume maker is definitely something we will return for Christmas, uh, and run a contest with it as well.Of course. Yeah. That's awesome. Yeah. I can't wait to see, like Santa hats or you guys get creative with all that stuff. Yeah, that's really cool. I love that. Um, so speaking, you know, we talked to community earlier, um, discord management, right? So we know discord, depending on which discord you joined, it can be completely hectic or one of the best, you know, organized, structured communities you've been to.How do you guys manage the community? Do you do anything specific to make sure it's running smoothly? Um, well I guess that's the question for me as I am the community manager, um, I don't know, really. I think we attracted the right group of people that are very chill, very wholesome, very welcoming to everybody.So it's been pretty chill. We have moderators, but I don't think they have to do a lot of banning or warning people and stuff like that. I've been in much worse communities outside of NFTs as well. And, uh, ours is just very, very wholesome. They're welcoming, really love that. Are you guys both active on there?Yeah. Every day. Yeah. We basically live on discord. Yeah. Yeah. It's tough on like, there's so much FOMO. You leave for like an hour. You have to catch up on all these messages. And is there a favorite room in the discord that you guys like to be in? For me, basically the team chat, because that's where the goodies are, right?Yeah. Yeah. We actually launched something, uh, recently, uh, which is called the fan gout where we host game nights and such, uh, Heartland sparks. One of our mods has been taking care of it and it's actually a fun place to hang out. Like we have terrific games. We have, uh, what was the first one? Uh, we had a night of, uh, what was called the game helped me drinking, uh, party books, Jack party, Jack books, Jack Jack box.So we have, uh, that's, that's also a way to keep the community engaged. That's something we really focus on. So the hangout is also a cool place. So me and Chris are going to have to join you guys on the next game night there. Yeah, that sounds like fun. I feel like we did that here at Benzinga one time, the, the Jac games, um, the different mini games.So, uh, that, that could definitely be a fun night. So absolutely one last question about discord for you guys. So we have seen a lot of discourse get hacked. You know, they're posting these spam links, uh, anything that you guys are doing and take precaution with this and anything that you recommend to the community to just, you know, kind of as a guide, to not fall for these things.Um, I've been community managing on this good for a six or seven years now. And I've recently actually posted a thread about this because I've seen so many surfers getting a hack and a scam. Like you said, if people lose a lot of money, um, I think it's a lot of teams may be new to discord. I don't know, to like the intricate details or the useful tips you can add to your server.And basically it's all my trout. That's been to my profile page view. If people want to win the, read that all true. I've linked some very useful things in there. Okay, awesome. Yeah. We'll make sure to check that out because now more than ever, it's more important for all of these things to take precaution, you know?Perfect. Yeah. And for anyone out there watching, if you're watching us on YouTube right now, you can follow pock on Junichi on Twitter. Those are in the description of this video below. Um, so make sure you check those out as well. Um, we do have some questions here from the chat, um, which is something we always like to do here on the show.Um, we got a question from, uh, Quito, how did they meet David Horvitz and get him to do a one of one Fang stir David Horvath? Of course, uh, ugly Dallas founder. Uh, I believe, and I know ugly Dallas from having kids and they did that movie a couple of years ago. So, uh, tell us a little bit about how that came to be.Uh, well, actually it's, uh, it's a pretty straightforward, uh, they, they be joined or discord and both a bunch of factors and started sharing them. And we were astonished by it because I've been following David's work for quite a while, as you, as you've been Chris. Uh, and, and actually we reached out to him.It was the coolest dudes and just agreed to do it, like, just like that. So he is, he was a collector before he was collabing with us. So that's, that's, that's the best thing, I guess. So, and then the process was, was pretty straight forward. I'm sorry. He just picked one of his characters and it turned it into a fencer.Like we didn't have to do much because it was his style and it was a perfect match for our colors and our, our, our theme. So it was pretty straight. That's awesome. Um, so we have another question from the chat here. This one is from third. I, Juan, he's asking, do you guys do this full time? And if so, what is your daily routine?Um, yeah, I do this full time. Uh, I know PACA doesn't, but, uh, I recently, after we launched and we sold out, I made the choice to quit university and quit my part-time designer job. Uh, as I w I always wanted to go full-time NFD ever since I got into this space, because it's just so welcoming a super cool as you, as an artist, you can create so much and have such a big audience.So I decided to bite the bullet and quit uni and quit my job and go full-time fan game. I do. I actually do a lot of juggling between my day job and thinking I'm 24 7 on this cord, but luckily my job allows me to, to balance things. So, uh, I can do my day job and still be fully committed to, to thinking.So me and June, she worked perfectly, uh, with this, with this schedule. So not a lot of sleep hog guys. Yeah. Not, not really. Yeah. I feel like that was something we talked about in one of our other interviews of like, do you ever feel the need to, you know, take, take a break, maybe take a day off from the, the discord, um, you know, maybe, uh, a mental break.Is that something you guys ever do or think about, or is this just, you know, 24, 7, uh, all in no breaks. Um, I do think about it. Uh, I rarely do it though. Um, but sometimes, you know, on a Sunday you sleep in a little and, well, I mean, this is just fun. It doesn't feel like work or anything. So I do check this every day, but I don't, sometimes I take one day off or something like that.Yeah. Yeah. It's very important. Yep. Very important. Packa. How about, how about you juggling a, you know, two things right now? Um, you know, how, how do you take some mental breaks? Yeah, I probably need to take more of those. Uh, but uh, I tried to, as June, she said, I tried to enjoy a bit of the weekend, even though I'm always checking discord and Twitter, but, uh, I think I'm going to need a break, like after we release new thanks city and the March, probably some days off, but I know I won't be able to, to, to log off and, and skip on discord, but still, uh, probably less hands-on and more, uh, enjoying.I guess I have a question for you guys. I'm curious to hear your guys' thoughts on the current NFT markets. You know, since we have seen, you know, gas go up volume kind of slowed down a little bit. Uh, what are your guys' thoughts on the market right now? Let's start with you PACA. Uh, well, I think, uh, market is going through a slow days and we've noticed that on, on thinking.Uh, I don't, I honestly don't know if this is just a phase or if NFTs are starting to, to, to enter the real bear market, because so far we had like one or two weeks bear markets and then things start to spike up again. But, uh, all I know is if we keep on building communities and, and, uh, keep on working daily for those reasons, Those are the projects that will stand the test of time, you know?So we, we gotta build when things are down. So we really enjoy when things are back up. So that's, that's at least my, my way of seeing things. And that's why we haven't stopped ever since we started, uh, I don't know where, I mean, I don't know if this is, this is changing anytime soon. I hope so because I've been seeing a lot of reds on every three Twitter threads, like.Uh, but uh, people are still around. So I think that's, that's one of the things that matters the most and, and you see new people, uh, buying their first NFD every day. So I think that's, that's a bullish sign and then Christmas is coming and I, I truly believe that the NFTs are going to be these year's Christmas gifts.So who knows. Yeah. Um, I'm looking for some gifts for the family and I'm definitely gonna give NSC. I hope I get some as gifts this Christmas too. So if my family's out there watching, I'll take some out of teas for Christmas. All right. We got another question here in the chat. Uh, this one, uh, along the same, you know, broad NFT lines, a question from Brenda, um, are they into other types of NFTs, like NBA, top shot or music?Um, you know, we, we asked about your early days in NFTs and now that fan gangs going, I know you're busy guys, but you know, are there NFTs that you guys, uh, you know, collect, uh, you know, currently. Um, yeah, like you said, we're, we're busy and I was a died down definitely a little bit, but I'm still degenerate.So I still browse open, see all the time looking for new stuff, but also still supporting my friends who we came up with, uh, from back in March, uh, people like crypto pers, uh, Marco, uh, those are still grinding every single day and they put out dope stuff. So I still check those out and sometimes buy one of them.Uh, so yeah, definitely still collecting pocket. Yeah. About a top shot and music. Uh, well mainly tough shots. I was never, uh, much into it because first of all, we're in European. So, uh, basketball is not as huge as there over here. Uh, but, uh, I, I mostly collect, uh, the same stuff as June. She said, I, I do. Well, some 10 Ks.I do. Someone wants, uh, I actually liked music, but I haven't found anything that, uh, really, uh, pushed me to it. Uh, like nothing NFD related that, that, that I think was it, uh, I think we still have a long way there. Uh, I've I've played for, for over 10 years. So music is something that interests me. Uh, but I'm yet to find a proper, uh, NFT, uh, about it.I guess. I, I mean, there there's, there's good stuff. Uh, but nothing that has really spoken to me.Awesome. And one more, uh, you know, just broad question here. Um, you know, uh, another topic we've hit on a lot with this show is obviously a lot of people know the current NFT marketplaces, you know, open, see super rare, rare bull and others. We have this elephant in the room of Coinbase launching an NFT marketplace.Uh, what are your thoughts? You know, how big of a deal is this for the NFT market for Coinbase getting involved and have you guys, uh, you know, talk to a Coinbase at all about maybe, uh, getting fan gang on there? Um, yeah, we definitely want to, uh, because obviously it's a, it's a huge step. Uh, and I think it's about time to open C has got some real competition.I think it's very healthy for the market over. Um, so I think that's very good how they develop it and how it all, uh, works out. That's yet to be seen of course, but it's a very promising, uh, company to be behind an empty marketplace. I get, I think, and if anyone's in the chat or anyone out there has any connections to Coinbase, please link us up because we've been reaching out, we've been shooting emails left and right.But so far to know, I feel sadly, soawesome. Well, June she and PACA, you know, thank you guys so much for joining us on the roadmap today and also shout out to the fan gang community, joining the chat. Um, you know, we want to thank you both for taking time out of what we know is your busy days. And we look forward to following the progress of fan gang along the way.Awesome. Thank you guys. We'll talk to you soon. See ya. All right. May I ask, I mean, another great interview here on the roadmap, right? Which when we started this show, right. You know, the big things where it provides some education, talk about some upcoming projects and interview these great teams. Right.And we get that behind the scenes. Look, that's what I really like. Right. Is hearing. I mean, where else are you going to hear it? What their high scores are on this game, or, you know, how much time they spend in the discord, you know, and their favorite traits. I always love getting that. And, you know, hearing what the artist thinks, you know, are their favorite traits.What do you think mass? Yeah, one of my favorite things about these interviews is watching the chat. Now, seeing, you know, all these guys from the community, come on here and just ask questions or provide feedback. You know, I get a good sense of the community from this chat. So it's really cool to see that.And if you guys enjoy this again, make sure to leave a thumbs up subscribe. We're trying to, you know, really push this as NFC is expand. So yeah, you know, I'm glad it was a great interview, great team. And I look forward to seeing where they're at in a couple months or following up with them in the future.Definitely. And I mean, that's an exciting roadmap, right? To hear about Fang city, to hear about merge and, you know, there's this new artwork coming and also those, those, uh, costume contest, right. The Halloween one, and we got a Christmas one coming up. Um, so definitely excited. Mass before we get to the headlines, I'm seeing a, a, it looks like we got a shout out in the chat there and a tip.So, uh, thank you, mark, for your super chat contribution. And the comment is, let me go ahead and pull this up on the screen. The comment is the floor for pudgy penguins is 1.2. Ethan robotics is 0.3 for any reason not to buy at these prices. Thanks guys. Uh, mark, thanks again for the shout-out here. Um, again, not financial advice.Uh, you know, I was a former holder of robotics. Um, I do not have my Roboto any more. They just did the. Airdrop of the pet. Um, you know, and the price has come down since then. I love this artwork though. We had the team on, and this is one that I'm looking to get back in. I love the ones that have the animal is, you know, on the head.Those are my favorite ones, but 0.3, four. Um, you know, I think maybe we dip a little bit more, but you know, I sold mine at 1.5 east. So, uh, it definitely was up there and pudgy penguins, I've never been in a, you know, I missed the run on that. Um, so I can't really speak to that. Maths. What do you think of a pudgy penguins and robots here at these levels?Yeah, so great question, mark. Um, you know, not financial advice, but I think now, you know, We're kind of past that flipping phase right now, since we're kind of in a, we've slowed down a bit. So what I've focused more on is look at the community, right. And we've had the robotics team, you know, they're all docs, they're a great community there at New York, uh, you know, and the events, um, are they a great long-term hold?Absolutely. In my opinion, I think they are so kind of, I think price is a lagging indicator right now. You know, floors are thin. There's not a lot of volume. I think these will pick up over time, you know, in a year or so. Can you see this as your profile picture and not worried if it dips? Absolutely same with budgie penguins.I mean, I see them both on Twitter all the time. A lot of people use them as their profile pictures. Um, so, you know, that's the biggest thing. Can you, do you, would you hold on to this for a while? Is the community strong? Do you see the roadmap? These things matter now? A little more so than ever before in the last couple months I would say so in my opinion, I would definitely buy at these prices.They look good. They may go down even more, a bit who knows, but, um, yeah, I mean, I like that. Definitely great insight there, math, uh, you know, I always love the call-out right. That you, you see these as profile pictures, right. And that is true with penguins and robotics and the communities are huge. You know, uh, we talked about that on a past show.Robotics was that, you know, Um, and did some events there. Uh, Pablo is an amazing artist, right? Uh, shout out to Pablo. We had him on the show and they also do random airdrops different times. Um, you know, of just some of his artwork to, you know, give back. And I think, uh, after pets they've got more coming.So, uh, I could definitely see some, some longterm value there. So again, not financial advice, but that's our thoughts on the overall price right now, again, mark, you know, thanks for the shout out there in the chat. Um, and again, guys drop your questions in the chat. If you have them, we'll try to get to some let's turn to some, uh, news and headlines.Um, you know, there, there's not a ton of new stuff out there, mass, uh, but one of the big headlines I saw, you know, I, I occasionally watch, uh, late night television and I have watched Jimmy Fallon for awhile and he had people on last night. Right. So we got to hear all about NFTs, right? With people's latest, say.And one of the things that was revealed during the interview was that Jimmy Fallon is now a board ape yacht club owner. So he said that he partnered with moon paid during the interview. And, uh, we're not sure if moon pay, you know, a, it was a sponsor at all, or if they just got that shout out from Jimmy Fallon.Um, but so now I'm seeing on Twitter that based on it being through moon pay, it is most likely board ape number 5, 9, 9. If we can get that picture up here in a minute. Uh, so it is a six tray cream for eight. So 6% tray of cream for has a sea captain's hat, 3%. Uh, Navy Stripe, T3 percent and heart sunglasses, 4%.Uh, this was purchased for 46.6 east or around $216,000 on November 8th by moon pay and then was transferred to an open sea account that had just been set up this month. So again, that's the one that they think that Jimmy Fallon got, it has not been confirmed. And also in that regards mass, Jimmy Fallon has not changed his profile picture to the ape yet.So a great shout out on TV, but a well, he changed his Twitter picture, uh, to this APM. Yeah, that's a great point. You know, I have a feeling he doesn't fully understand it yet. It was just from, just from hearing him talk there. I feel like he just, how he described boom pay and how it worked. Hopefully it does.And yeah, I mean, it would make a cool profile picture, you know, I'm sure the board answer glad that Jimmy is onboard. So that's awesome. Yeah. I'm curious, you don't mask. That's a great point. I'm curious to hear what the community thinks because you know, not too long ago, we were talking about a rumor of, you know, Kylie Jenner wanting to get a board ape.Right. And a lot of people, you know, kind of shunned her, right. And now will Jimmy Fallon be welcomed, you know, with open arms and again, I mean, Jimmy Fallon, he's, he's a decent size name, right? He has a late night talk show that airs every night and mass where I get excited about this. It's not just for the eight community, but let's picture.You know, Jimmy Fallon doing an interview in the future with, you know, Steph Curry or shack or Reese Witherspoon, people who have they own NFTs. What are the ads now that Fallon's going to talk about NFTs with them, you know, during the interview, like, I feel like that's pretty exciting to think, Hey, there could be more NFT talk during, you know, a late talk show.What do you think? Yeah, I mean, I'm sure we should probably, I wouldn't be surprised if we see that I should say in the next, I would say year or two. Yeah, absolutely. We're starting to see some of those conversations happen on Twitter between celebs and between, you know, celebs and ape owners. So yeah, that'd be really cool.Yeah. Definitely. Um, so let's talk a little bit about, so cool cats teased today. They tease their pets, right? So we'll pull up a picture right now. We'll show you guys what the pets are looking like, but I'm more interested in talking about the roadmap, right? So we're kind of at a point now where a lot of projects, you know, like the apes, the cool cats, these blue chips, they're building this economy around their original 10 K profile pictures, right?So they're building, you know, utility, they're building a different, you know, you know, cartoons and pictures, and they're creating this big, you know, universe of, you know, the original 10 K. So I'm so curious to see how this evolves over the next year, right? When people come into the, you know, out of T we'll do the buy these pets as it may do, they make it a profile picture, does the cool cat universe sport, ape universe expand, you know, to all of these different things.And, you know, seeing this come to life, Cool to see. So I'm excited for that. Yeah. I mean, that artwork is looking sweet, man, uh, you know, for the pet. So, uh, this, this is pretty exciting and, you know, uh, I definitely agree, right. The roadmap is looking good. Um, for cool cats. I mean, this has been a blue chip for a while, and I know that you're in this project.Um, you know, do you think, you know, this, this has got that, that wonderful lasting touch of being, you know, one of the top blue chips. Cause right now, I mean, it's, it's a top five projects, top 10, I would say all time. Right. You know, for me, I don't look at the floor with this at all, you know, I can go up or down and I really don't care unless I'm trying to buy another one.Uh, so to me that's always a good sign personally, you know, I just liked the project. Um, I liked the community and again, the roadmap we're so early man, and all these projects are building and there's only 10,000 pieces. Right. So when let's say a hundred thousand Coinbase has what, 2 million people on the, on the way.So 2.5 million now 2.5 million, right? How many of those are going to want a cool cat? Yeah, that's a great 10,000 cats. You know, you can't, they start becoming unattainable at a certain point, but that's where the other, you know, that's where the cool cats universe comes to life, which is more bullish for these original pieces are the way I see it.So I still think it's too early to call it. You know, it's too early to say, it's going to go to the moon. It's too early to say it's going to crash. You know, we're just kind of in that in-between phase the way I see it. Definitely. Well, so math, we just talked about a robotic is doing a, a pet, uh, you know, uh, airdrop.We got cool cats doing pets. I saw another project that's launching a free pat mint. Um, this is bubblegum kids, which I think I talked about on the show, um, you know, a month or two ago. So this was one that I actually mentored. I have sold out of it, but I have seen some people on Twitter that I follow in the stock community using bubble gum kids as their profile picture.So this isn't an inexpensive one, right? I think the floor is like 0.03. And they now said that they are doing bubble gum up. Uh, so, you know, along that same lines of, uh, you know, uh, Coinbase, right, and new people getting into NFTs, I'm wondering if some of these projects can, you know, gain some traction, right.With seeing people have them as their profile picture and also having that cheaper price point. Right. Cause again, not that floors matter long-term but I think your initial people that get in that are new to the space, you're going to see some of these cheaper projects be, you know, good entry points and bubblegum kids.I like what they've done. They did some honorary ones too. Um, Steph Curry, they made one for him, Andre Iguodala, another NBA player. They also made one for Reese Witherspoon. I don't think she has it. Um, so they're kind of going that approach too, to get celebrities. And, but again, doing there's that puppy there, I mean, I actually kinda liked this, uh, you know, the artwork on it.So, and I have seen the bubblegum kids, you know, uh, and they're a little bit unique, right. That they have the, the bubble gum. Uh, what do you think maths, do you know this project at all? I don't know this project, but you know, you made a good point where when new people come into the NFT worlds, uh, you know, what are they gonna buy first?Right. So that's always interesting to see, and I guess we'll, we'll find out, but to have projects starting to prepare for that would be cool. So, yeah, definitely. Um, so Chris, we talked on, we talked, was it yesterday or talked to any of this? You know, it seems so long ago. It was just, I can't tell my base.Yeah. So the super rare board apes, uh, they're out for auction. There's actually two of them. We showed one yesterday, but I want to show this one today. This one. Dude, absolutely a banger. Um, and let's, they're both up for auction. And I think one of them has, is up for 13 Yves and the other one's for 16. Oh my goodness.Look at that. Rolling stone cover through that is so my goodness. And that's the roadmap as the backdrop. So that's, I mean, that is sick right there. Yeah. I love that. And what did, how we got to look at the price here? What are we at for let's look at the top bid for this is 16, 8, 16 Eve on the mutant. So, and I think that's actually higher.What is the, the banana board eight cover? I mean, I call it the banana cause we got the bananas floating around in the background. 14 east, uh, 14. Yeah, that mutant one. I hadn't even seen until today, mass. I completely missed that. Um, and these end, I think it is at four day. Four days. So, uh, what do you think Chris, over under 28th for both of these?Oh, you know what? I almost feel like it's gonna split. I kind of think the mute, no, get to 20. And I feel like the regular one I'll call it. I'll call it 1720 and 17. I'll call. Um, I think, I think they both break 20 considering. Yeah. I think they both got 20 days left, so these are sick, dude. I think. Yeah.Whatever ones. I'm not sure what the other one of ones have gone for, but if floor price is what like 38th right now for a board ape. I don't know. I think it breaks 20. Uh, I'm curious to hear from the chat though, which one would you guys pick? The mutant one or the regular one? Because they're both cool.So, oh yeah. 32 eighth floor. Yeah. Great question mass. So yeah, let us know right now, type in the chat. Would you rather have the board ape or the mute and ape? Um, you know, uh, just solely based on the image, not based on the price, if you had to pick one, which would you rather own mass? I, I think I got go mute here.Right? Uh, you know, that, that artwork, uh, it's dripping off the face, the roadmap in the background, which one would you rather have. I mean, the other one is cleaner though. It's just simpler and, and this one has a lot going on through their votes. Sick man. I want both of them. Let me just get both you going to play some bids right here on the show.We're going to hear it here. All right. We're starting to get some votes and we got two votes for Mueller right now. No surprise. Um, let's keep those votes comment. Oh, I mean the OJI, right? It's clean. It's clean. Oh, another vote for boards. So, I mean, we're, we're seeing it split right now. Mass. Are you surprised by this vote?They're both sick, man. So yeah, it's kind of like picking, it's kind of like picking, oh man. I think if I had to pick one probably original because looking at it now. Oh gee. But I don't know. I want this one too. They're both sick, man. So we'll, we'll update the chat when this thing is go for final sale.Cause these should probably, I think they'll. Yeah. And I mean, mass, I think if you're, if you're rolling stone and also if you're other Meg, I mean, where are the other magazines that right time magazine partnered with cool cats. Now you got rolling stone partnering with board Abe. I mean, if you're a magazine, I mean, you're watching the show right now.Stop watching. You should be on the phone. Right. You should be connecting with these NFT projects because look at this, I mean, you can get people to your space, right? You can bring new people to your magazine and you can also make some money and, you know, these just, they look so cool. And I mean, again, one of one, so, you know, mass, you just said that was cool cats, right?10,000, you know, there's only 10,000. Well, now you've got something like this, there's only one, right? Like, and you can say you own the one of one, I mean, what a flex. That is two. So, uh, another vote here for mute due to the detail, again, that roadmap behind, I mean, the parrots constantly moving to. There's just so much going on in these covers, dude.If I had this, I put it in my house and I'd have, I'd find a way to display it. Just like this all day, every day, all day people over just invite people to be like, Hey, come look at this. Got yeah. Oh man. That's awesome. So ends in four days. So we'll be able to talk about that final price next week on the show.And again, I said 20 for the mutant 17 for the board ape and mass said both we'll hit 180, so we will see, um, you know, what the final price is. Our, you know, we were pretty close with our guests is on the Southerby's board, ape auction, mass. Remember that, uh, you know, we. Um, so, you know, again, uh, just a, an educated guests here.Um, but we will see, well, we have a couple minutes left, so anyone, you know, watching this live, and again, if you're not watching this live or you're listening on the podcast, you know, that's great too. We're happy to have you as part of the. If you're watching live right now, though, uh, you know, let us know, what are you watching?Um, drop it in the chat. Are there any upcoming minster you're looking at any recent NFT purchases that you had? I do see a comment from mark in the chat there talking about the Viveve star wars drop, um, which I believe is at three o'clock today, mass. I wrote about this a week or two ago, and I, I forgot.I haven't even looked at these. Right. So Disney partnered with Vive to do star wars, Marvel and Disney related, um, NFTs. And they're they're collectibles. Right. And you have them in the Vive app then, you know, I saw, I think like a gold Bart Simpson skateboard. All right. Cause Disney now owns a Simpsons. I saw, um, you know, some Marvel ones as well.Have you looked at the Vive and FTC? No, I have not, but I think we'll pull them up right here. So we can all look at the ass C3, POC, like, look at that, like again, Disney, I mean, one of the biggest media companies in the world getting into NFTs and look at this, I mean, what a way to monetize your intellectual property, the golden moments and Ft collection with the, um, the, this is pretty sweet.Um, I might have to take a look at these because mass, if I remember right, I think you, it's kinda like a, uh, you know, like a normal NFT where you're just, you're, you're buying it and you don't know what you got until you open your pack. I think I, I feel like it's similar to top shot where, you know, you open it then, and it's an instant reveal, but, uh, I think that'd be wrong with that too.So, but that's pretty exciting too. I mean, I've got kids who love. Getting blind bags, right. Where you don't know what you're going to get until you open it. And that's kind of the thrill of NFTs too. I mean, there, you got Homer choking bar. Uh, there's just so many great ones in this collection. So walk us through this, Chris.So you pay, I'm assuming with cash or us dollar credit cards, us dollar through the Vive app. So that's a great point. Matt is another thing where, you know, maybe people new to the NFT. Get in through something like this, you know, top shop, we saw that, right? Cause they have the flow blockchain where you could, you could use a credit card.I mean, my first top shots I ever bought, you know, I was using a debit card to buy those packs. I didn't have to get a theory. Um, um, you know, to make that transaction. So here you have. Yeah. Homer and Bart. Um, yeah, so I mean, and addition, so yet, uh, 12,333. So I mean, that's still not a crazy supply. I actually thought there was going to be more of these.And that was the one thing that scared me away a little bit was like that inflated supply, but I mean, I've watched the Funko NFTs constantly sell out mass and I think Disney is going to sell all these out. So, is there a resell market for this? Or how does this work or do what, who do you think they're attracting just collectors from star wars that are going to come into this NMT?Are they attracting current NFTE people or is it a mix of both? Yeah, so I think they're going after new people and collectors. Um, and I think the resale market is right there on the Vive app. I see a comment from lane in the chat though, saying from what I understand, you still can't cash out Vive.That's an interesting comment. Um, that's something we've seen with newer apps before, right. And I think tap shot actually had that complaint for a while where you could bypass, you could buy moments, but you couldn't cash your money out for a while. Um, you know, cause again, just working out the, the processes and stuff.So if that's true, I mean that could scare some people away as well. But um, I mean, mass being able to use U S D don't you think that just brings, you know, new people to the. Yeah, I do. I, I'm curious to see kind of like meaning when we bring people on most of the time we ask them how they got into this world, they say top shot.Right. So, uh, absolutely. You know, absolutely. I'm curious to see I'm more, cause I didn't get in through top shot. I just got in through like straight Eve. So I'm curious to see how that works because like you said, yeah, it's going to bring a lot of, I'm sure a lot of Disney collectors to buy their first NFT and you know yeah.I think it's great on looking back. So in one minute, mass, if that is true, we got a loyal, loyal fan, Mexican Crip. Shout out to you. I see that name all the time in the chat. So shout out to you for joining us saying that that Vive drop is sold out mass. What are we doing? Doing the show live right now? We could have been buying some, uh, some Disney NFTs.So, uh, I, I mean, you said it that's bullish, right? If they're selling these out. I mean, and also, you know, so Disney, Hasbro, Mattel, all these companies getting in again, I just said it with the magazine companies, right? If you have not thought about getting into NFTs, what are you doing? Like, why are you not exploring how you can do it?I mean, McDonald's even right. The McRib NFT, um, you know, isn't this just an extremely bullish sign for these companies. Yeah. I mean, seeing them come onto this world is it's, it's, it's exciting. I'm curious to see how they implement it though, but yeah. Seeing a star wars side in a minute, it's pretty crazy.I want to look, is it mostly bots or how the process works? I'm going to do some research because I'm not sure we're going to, we're going to have to research that and see, and we'll have to try to get some, cause I mean, I, I'm a star wars fan. I'm a Marvel fan. Um, you know, so I wouldn't mind owning some just to collect them.Right. But I'm, I'm curious about the resell market to, you know, also there was the draft Kings NFTs, right. I was able to buy some of those and you were able to use your existing balance, right? So you couldn't just use a credit card on the spot. You had to have money in your draft Kings account, but you could just pay with that money to buy the.T. And I think that brought some new people to the space too, and those sold out, but they used to align process like top shot dead. Right? Where and Mexican Crip now saying it's mostly bots. Uh, you know, that would be the thing I would worry about. Yeah. Is, you know, if it's an instant sale and not align process, you're going to see a lot of bots get in there.Yeah, exactly. Yeah, man, these are all bullish. Just finding easier ways for people to get into that. If two worlds is exciting, I can't wait for Coinbase and see how that's going to work. If you're going to be able to use U S dollar from your Coinbase to buy NFTs. I mean, dude, that's gonna be huge. So yeah, I mean, mass with that being said, there was a rumor not too long ago, um, that open C uh, there, someone found in the code, I think visa, right.That you would be able to use a credit card. And we talked about that on the show. I know we did, uh, of how, you know, potentially that could make it easier for people to buy, but also could be scary, right. If you could. Use a credit card and start buying all this stuff. Um, you know, you think that brings more people too.And also with that being said, if, if open CCS competition coming from Coinbase could add in credit card payments, if open, see like announced that the same time Coinbase goes live, would that be like the ultimate way of, you know, trying to connect. Yeah. I mean, so there's been a lot of negative feedback for open C lately.You know, they've made a lot of money and they're not the best at customer service. So there's opportunity for another big player to come in and take over. I think that's definitely a possibility. Um, I love the competition. I think it's going to create the best product for the consumers and make it easier for people to come on.So, so game on baby. Yeah, and that's what we want to see. Right. We want it to be easier for the everyday person to be able to, you know, buy and sell NFTs. And I mean, you heard Fang gang say right. That, uh, you know, Coinbase, they welcomed the competition to open. See, so, uh, you know, I'm looking forward to Coinbase and again, you know, the, these different platforms like Vive partnering with Disney, I just think we're going to see more and more pop up and more and more ways for people to get involved with NFTs mass.I think that's going to do it. Uh, you know, it's been a great week. Uh, we'll be back next week, right? Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, 2:00 PM. Eastern time. Uh, we've got some interviews, we'll be covering all the latest headlines and of course, interacting with our wonderful community here in the chat. Uh, anything you want to leave us off with today?No. The only thing is we're still early, right? We are in a slow process of NFTs right now. But once these things pick up, man, I hope everyone watching is ready because it's going to be fun. All right. May I ask, do you see this comment right now from mark? I've got a secret spider for $7, a foot for tough.Oh my goodness. We have got to look into, to even find out what this is all about, man. So next week we might have to do a whole segment on Vive. Maybe we take a look at that, but mark, that is awesome. Wonderful to hear happy for you. Um, and again, thanks to everyone in our chat for joining us today. And if you were watching this after we aired live, leave a comment on the video.Madison, I always go back. We read the comments. So just because you're not watching live does not mean you are not a loyal member of our community. We love everyone out there.

Chuck and I are back at it this week! Chuck calls the Chubies to action, then I offer a heartfelt apology to Chuck for assuming the worst of some of his previous preferences. Chuck tells me all about his Valentine's Weekend with his wonderful girlfriend Gina and the many restaurants he tried. I talk about quitting a mobile game I had played for over 600 days. I tell Chuck about the February 2020 version of Pechakucha in Providence, then we get into an in-depth discussion about what the Impractical Jokers movie means to us as independent comedians. We wind things up with a story about Chuck's horrible week, and a moment of fear for his pup, Swiss Miss!- Brad

I've played video games since before I was able to read - although that statement loses some of its weight once you find out that I didn't learn to read until I was in 4th grade - you know, dyslexia and all. Nonetheless, video games have been a part of my life for a long time. I mean, games are so ingrained in me that while I am writing this, I am listening to video game music - it's excellent for creating a relaxed focus. Video game music was specifically designed to help with attention - I'll link to some of my favorite game soundtracks in the show notes.Today we're going to be talking about why video games can engage the ADHD brain so well and how that can lead to video game addiction. We're also going to be discussing some of the more positive traits of video games as well as discussing some ways that we can cut back on how many video games we play.Check out the full show note at: HackingYourADHD.com/videogamesToday's Top TipsVideo games engage our brains through instant feedback and making us feel successful.Video games can be a great tool for learning and for your social life.We want to set sensible limits on video games in our lives - not all games are created equally, so choose what you play wisely. Be wary of the games you install on your phone.Game Addiction can be defined as problematic and compulsive use of video games that results in significant impairment in your life - if you're seeing signs of video game addiction in your life or you simply need help quitting playing so many video games I'd like to urge you to go check out GameQuitters.com

In this episode we cover the topic of game addiction, from what it means to if it effects us, we cover everything we thought we should while also welcoming our new host Aidan.

Interview with Klaus Wölfling, PhD, author of Efficacy of Short-term Treatment of Internet and Computer Game Addiction: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Welcome to this week's episode of A Question of Gamification. And this week's episode is all about game addiction. In fact, I had a question this week, can gamification lead to game addiction? My name is An Coppens. I am the show host for The Question on Gamification, and also the chief Game Changer at Gamification Nation. Now, I often receive the question, what about my kids, they are always playing Fortnite or they are always playing X-Game. At the time of Pokemon Go, it was Pokemon Go. Today its Fortnite, tomorrow, it may be a new game. And the thing is, game trends will come and go. The one measurable that you always need to look out for is do your kids do anything else but play video games or computer games or tablet games? If they do, then you're probably fine. Can gamification lead to addiction? I guess it could. So the honest answer is that anything where we're rewarding people and making them feel good, which is releasing positive chemical reactions in both the body and the brain can have the impact of achieving addiction. So I suppose the grassroots ingredients are there. Now, when we look at gamification, most of the time, we're speaking about business applications or applications that are not focused purely on entertainment, namely work, fitness, health. Now, I know people who are totally into using their Fitbit, and they would often come out with saying, "Oh, I'm addicted to my Fitbit" and "Oh, I'm addicted to my health statistics, etc." But not to such an extreme that nothing else matters. And this is where I would draw the line. The place when something becomes an addiction is when the person has to achieve beyond all else beyond all other reason. The fact that the World Health Organization has recently approved game addiction as a real ailment or real addiction is sort of to make the point that anything in too many doses or too much will be detrimental to someone's health, be detrimental to someone's well being, both mentally and physically. And those risks exist. The risk with gamification is that, yes, you may do something for a certain time, for longer,  more often, you may be more committed. But so far, I have yet to come across a situation where gamification has become an addiction. Gaming can be an addiction if nothing else exists beyond the game. That means no more social life, no more friends, no more work. In fact, the game always comes first. That's when it gets to that point where you have to win, and would even go as far as potentially ringing the support line of your favourite game, to say, Hey, I'm about to do serious damage, if I don't get a life, or I don't get my points back, etc. That's when we're really talking about a serious situation. In those cases, it's important to work with the individual to make them aware that something is wrong and to also seek professional help to help them through this. This is not something you should tackle on your own or the individual on their own. Like anything, most of us do things for the greater good for and we design for gamification and for games, we want people to become better. We wanted to have every great and positive intention. We also still want people to have a life outside of what we build. So we don't want them to play all of the time. We don't want them to be stuck in a game. And I think if your children go through phases where one game is so all-consuming and all-absorbing if they're still playing with friends, if they're still enjoying, play sports if they're still inviting friends over to come and play the same game, it's okay. Now if we look at the benefits of gaming, and that is something I often get asked about by parents is like my kids are always playing, and they're always looking into this, I want to limit their time. Think about it this way. For a lot of introverted kids, gaming is a way of releasing creativity. In some cases, some of the kids manage teams, manage guilds, run missions,

You already know Luis von Ahn’s work. He helped create CAPTCHA, the technology that helps control spam on the internet and crowd-sources humans to help computers read and digitize old text. In 2012, he co-founded Duolingo, a free language learning app. To him, the app was meant to solve “this mismatch where most of the people trying to learn a language didn’t have $1,000, whereas the software that would teach you a language cost about $1,000.” Von Ahn says there are now more Americans learning on his app than there are in the public school system. Why? Because Duolingo works like a video game.

Today's theme: Game Addiction The World Health Organization recently announced that the agency is adding “gaming disorder” to its globally recognized compendium of medical conditions and diagnoses. However, there are also objections of the video game industry and researchers who have studied the issue, and believe the scientific evidence for the classification is weak at best. We look into the definition of gaming disorder as well as ways to cope with game addiction with expert guests. The Conversationalist with Dr. Doh Min-jung - from You & Me Psychological & Consultation Services - a lecturer at Soongsil University and SookMyung University - a licensed psychologist in the New York State. According to a government survey, 15% of Korean elementary and middle schoolers are addicted to either the internet or smartphones. Do you think teenagers are more vulnerable to addictions? World Health Organization's 11th International Classification of Diseases will include the condition "gaming disorder" from next year. Do you agree that game addiction should be classified as a mental disorder? & Tarik Jašarević - spokesperson for the World Health Organization Some researchers say that your organization's been under enormous pressure from some Asian countries where prevalence of gaming disorder among young people is estimated to be 10-15% and because it takes them away from family and educational duties gaming is pathologized. Would you say this is true? I understand you're getting some backlash from the entertainment and gaming industry due to the recent decision. What do you think about their response? Media Monster Next week: Bookance (북캉스)

Today's theme: Hidden Treasures Earlier in the week, local police raided the offices of a company which claims to have found a treasure-laden shipwreck. The police have requested an international arrest warrant for the founder of a Singapore-based firm after launching an investigation into false claims of discovering a long-lost Russian “treasure ship.” We look into the truth of Dmitri Donskoi as well as treasure hunts throughout history all around the world with expert guests. The Conversationalist with Jihoon Suk - studying 20th century modern Korea history in Yonsei University. Let's get into the recent discovery of this Russian warship Dmitrii Donskoi that was sunken in 1905. Can you tell us more about the historical backdrop of the year 1905, and why countries with imperial ambitions would send out warships around the world? Where does the rumor that this ship contained 5,500 boxes of gold bars and coins which would have a value today of around 150 trillion won or $130 billion come from? Is there any historical evidence? & Owen Jarus - who writes about archeology and ancient relics on Business Insider, Scientific American and many more outlets and runs the webpage ‘Unreported Heritage News.' Supposedly there would be many archeologists around the world who would be eager to be on the site to look into those treasures, but I understand the Egyptian government implemented a very strict rule limiting outsiders from the site. Can you tell us more about this? We hear about ancient treasures or heritages being stolen or taken away from the original site to another part of the world. What's the rule when it comes to who gets to claim those treasures? Is it the finders are keepers rule that generally applies? Media Monster Next week: Game Addiction

When computer games are a problem for parents, it's usually because a child/teen has become obsessed and no longer shows interest in "family time." Even when family time isn't impacted, parents may have other questions like: • "Is my child addicted to computer games?" • "Are violent games encouraging my child to be violent and/or desensitizing him to violence?" • "Is all this screen time hurting my child's social development?" Dr. Rachel Kowert, psychologist, online gamer, and author of "A Parent's Guide to Video Games: The essential guide to understanding how video games impact your child's physical, social, and psychological well-being", makes a strong case for the positive impact of computer games and why parents may not need to worry about their kids' love of gaming. About Dr. Rachel Kowert (@DrRachelKowert) Dr. Kowert's research is primarily focused on the social impact of online games. This includes addressing the anecdotal claim that online game players are socially different/deficient as compared to offline or non-players, examining the impact of online video game play on offline friendship networks, and evaluating the tangible social benefits of online game play.

Game Addiction

Every week we invite a special guest to talk with us about life, games, and belief. This week, Cara Ellison takes some time out from her embedded journalism to talk about the value of asking hard questions about God, what we’re to gain and lose from losing games, whether the feminists are ruining our games (hint: no), and videogame addiction among parents.

You've read a review before, right? Ever hear of a game being "addicting"? Video games compel you to play them, and this compulsion makes them the perfect haven for addiction. So how can Christians respond to game addiction?
