You gotta love game studies! Where else do you find papers with the following combination of keywords: "analog games", "glue" and "necropolitics" ☺️ gamestudies.org/2301/article...

Und BTW, wenn es jemand vom Passauer PC liest, der Convalidator-Link in ConfTool funktioniert nicht. Service-Post für alle Bedürftigen: dieser hier funktioniert ;-)

Manuel Burghardt @manuelburghardt.bsky.social · Dec 6

Ich weiß nicht, ob die DHd2024 hier schon offiziell einen Account hat, aber vllt. weiß es ja jemand aus der Bubble (z.B. @philaut.bsky.social): was ist denn nun die finale Deadline für die camera ready papers? Auf der Website steht 6.12, im ConfTool steht 17.12?
