Thanks, nice lecture. Go, is indeed a horrible game for perfectionists, because most likely you will always play a sub-optimal move, and in that 1 in a million chance you do play the optimal move, you will never know..
Even-though Go will always be more elegant/simple and deeper in terms of options then SpyParty, I do believe if you can capture that feeling and idea of a battle between the minds in a deceptive way, that SpyParty will fit right into that line of Poker and Go.
“A game cannot be hyped, only under-deliver”, so Goodluck!

I’m terrible, like 17 kyu. I got good enough to see how deep the chasm was, and realized if I didn’t stop I’d get lost, so I stopped. :) I don’t play Texas Hold Em for the same reason. If you like Go and/or Poker and game design, you should watch this: http://www.gdcvault.com/play/1014383/Life-and-Death-and-Middle

Go is a much better game than SpyParty will ever be, so you made the right choice!

I like getting these emails. It typically means Checker/Chris is still alive, as he has a freakishly fast response time on here.

I just did exactly the same thing for exactly the same reason ;-).

Last comment I made I told the website to email me thread updates, and now every time I glance over my inbox I see a new message with the subject “SpyParty blah blah Early-Access Beta Invite blah blah” and FREAK OUT.

And then I realize that the subject really says “[SpyParty - A Spy Game About Subtle Behavior] New Comment On: The First Early-Access Beta Invite Is Away”‏

I like you guys, but I have to unfollow the thread. It’s for my health.
