 Well this was my first time attending siminar and I enjoyed it immensely. Thankfully Frivi verbally assaulted coerced me into going. -eyes- Xd I think what I loved most was the presenters all brought back the human side of sims. For me personally, as an introvert, I find it extremely difficult to approach others be it online or in person. Almost every presenter, if not every presenter, drove home the point that they welcomed questions and encouraged people to reach them by pretty much any means available. Also it was comforting to hear that they made mistakes and failed. Some did art, coding or owned, sims that never saw the light of day. All of this again confirming that sim owners are just humans. I think this was especially nice considering that my involvement with sims thus far has been at a user level.

For me, I was extremely excited about the art presentations but was swept up by the entire day's worth of information.
For next year, I really hope to see the same amount of varied presentations involving many different aspects of sims. I really enjoyed the more big picture presentations (brainstorming, community, partnerships, etc) that can be helpful in pretty much any other field. XD Personally I just want to thank all who attended, presented, worked on siminar. I know that it was a lot of work and time. XD

 I enjoyed Siminar alot this year. It was a nice mixture of presentations/games

I LOVED the Ask The Players section :P

My only suggestion would be to try and keep Presenters doing a Development Presentation and a Q&A apart...when they done back to back presentations I tuned out a bit :P (I know its not always possible due to last minute changes)

 I wasn't actually able to attend this year, between work and other real life things going on. My biggest suggestion would be to actually record, or have someone typing transcripts to be posted later. I know there's a board where presenters put up their presenations, but some of those are in outline form, and I would've also loved to hear the game Q&A. I feel like I missed a lot, even when reading through the 2011 topics.

Hey just saw that recording are up. :D I didn't see these before.
