Can someone please tell me what game of significant if ANY this woman has actually designed that makes her 'world renown' ? As far as I can tell the only thing that makes her that is places like FORA and TED saying it is so with absolutely no actual notable real world 'street cred' AT ALL to back up any claims that she knows the first thing about game design. Instead of helping her sell her book, which seems to be the only purpose of her speaking anywhere, can we please replace her with someone that actually has experience and know-how about game design. There are dozens of real game designers who we could choose from over her:

* Daniel Cook
* Jonas Heide Smith Ph.D
* Simon Egenfeldt Ph.D
* Joris Dormans
* Jake Birkett
* Joshua Dallman
* Auriea Harvey&Michaël Samyn
* Borut Pfeifer
* Chris Bateman
* Paul Senzee
* Soren Johnson
* Lee Winder
* Steve Gaynor
* Marek Bronstring
* Aki Järvinen
* Dallas Snell

This was such an interesting talk. What is so amazing is the similarity of cultures and how games apply to all cultures.
