I’m all for talking through things and getting a second opinion, but when it comes time to actually crafting things, I need my own space, maybe I’m just weird

Oh man this brings back memories -- managed to convince a bunch of friends in elementary school to get one, it made us way OP on the playground when playing games that had a bit of espionage involved :P

It’s nice to still have people such as yourself in the world — Merry Christmas as well!

So... basically further encourage a lack of transparency and funnel more resources into black ops at the expense of the altruistic and naïve -- that should be interesting. But meh, simple is simple I suppose :D

The world championships are this weekend http://www.ptks.org/wdc2018/

I’m currently here (it’s the last day), and I wasn’t quite sure what to expect with it being my first time playing in a large tournament— but I have to say it was pretty damn fun. The face to face hobby is definitely alive and well. If you enjoy strategy games, and have a bit of a masochistic bent, you’ll get along just fine.

Definitely would recommend you get some experience under your belt beforehand, to get a feel for general strategy and tactics. If you want to join the major discussion channels online to find some good games, hit me up and I’ll invite you.
