 * The Old Shed's "guru" appears to be a hiker. He is not dressed in medieval clothing so you know not his origin or intentions. You wonder if he is the guru of the Mine. A young man, he pleads that you not call him a guru. "It's makes me feel old - and probably suggests more wisdom than I can offer," he grins. "If you are seeking knowledge about the sociology of games, though -- well I know a thing or two." (How does he know up here all alone?)

It seems he is a student of Jane McGonigal. From his solitude, when he goes out to study sociology he is more aware of the full social picture, having come from totally outside it - or at least that is his theory. He agrees with McGonigal that games produce stronger social connectivity. "Yes, pages 77-82, Kindle location 1315-1410, from __Reality Is Broken__ will bring you up to speed," he says, as he urges me to come back after I have read it.

"Oh, and if you write it up in that Adventurer's Log of yours," he adds, "use the title Stronger Social Connectivity. Why I bet you can make the full 5 XP possible!"
