This is a very cool initiative!
As a man with family, unfortunately impossible to take part, but as an online spectator and fan I will sure! (eh, if I were younger... ;) )
I noticed that one of the "lectures" you mentioned was an analysis of the 50-player game. I might be persuaded to write such an analysis (or at least write a post-mortem of the game) from the winner's perspective.
A reader would surely be.
I, as the loser of that final fight (imo we two put the most diplo energy in that game), am very curious about a few things:
- How the hell you could keep in play 3 players as your vassals (with only 2 territories, so actually they were only your card maker "slaves") while my possible allies all booted one after another? :P I should have told to Timon that I am his clanmate using an alt so maybe... ;)
- How the hell did you managed to sacrifice Rento in a way, that he was angry with us and not with you? :O
- What did you do with Kenneth that he chosen the sure defeat instead of ally with me in the last 3 players phase? :O (I just noticed now, that Kenneth from Taiwan, was he Gui? :O )
- etc.
Would be very interesting if Fizzer would make the private chats (and mails) of that game visible.
