Same. I'll be traveling for a while and might miss it, but I'd defiantly read/participate in it if I was available.

Most players don't need to work on "finesse" items. It's about deciding to put in the effort to read, write and think critically. Too often that minimum commitment is not there.

The round table idea is awesome, from my perspective as a consumer. As a teaching tool, I am pretty sure that as Foolisness mentioned, it will be read by the same circle of players. Stil, I'd love to see it happen.


round table idea should be built of players who aren't neccesarily just "top tier". Active players who play consistently and have decent results should be on it if it is done. Most of the players in what is considered the best players of the forum barely play now and part of me feels that a core group of players set to analyze a game behind the scenes as it happens should be built of people who actively play as well as those who are considered top notch.


I agree with this. The round table shouldn't be set up like a museum showpiece solely by vets. It would probably be better to model it after a master class. A lot of times, writing out your thoughts is a good way of seeing how concretely you understand the concepts needed to analyze, plan, and just play mafia in general. Including a group of active and consistent players along with top players will also be a good way to get them to learn more hone their skills. As long as there is discussion and feedback from top players to keep a good line of thought/keep things in check, a round table discussion can turn into some sort of out-of-game bootcamp. Useful for those who are in the discussion, as well as useful for those who read it. I think it might be a good idea to keep the group relatively small though (maybe 10-12ish players) so that we can keep the discussion focused and avoid redundancy.

Explain to me why the host cannot participate in the roundtable? Yeah, you've got responsibilities come cycle-change, but as a normal, you're not doing much else beyond that. I don't see why you couldn't be part of the discussion while hosting...
if I had to describe his playstyle, it'd be a coked up rabbit with the attention of a goldfish injecting caffeine into himself directly through an IV drip. it's like a reel of random animated shorts where things just blow up randomly

Because he kinda knows everyone's role already and can't offer unbiased and purely analytical commentary?
