I'm sure everyone serious does it. I'm just not sure I can visualize the 
process. I've sat in design meetings of software, web sites, documents, 
etc. I haven't sat in design meetings for interactive games. It seems to 
me it might be noticably different. I'm wondering how autonomous the 
decisions made by the people sitting in front of the level editor are, 
for example. How much of the level is pre-planned, how much is easier to 
lay out and then fix later if it plays poorly.

I'm kind of talking about how much goes on before you even sit down in 
front of the editor.

I might if I had the video card for it.

  Ever notice how people in a zombie movie never already know how to
  kill zombies? Ask 100 random people in America how to kill someone
  who has reanimated from the dead in a secret viral weapons lab,
  and how many do you think already know you need a head-shot?
