    You’re too modest friend. Anybody that wouldn’t include you in the game’s greats is crazy. Keep the mentality that you’re not there yet if it helps you continue driving and improve, by all means, but you’re there as far as I’m concerned and I’m sure I’m not alone.

    Great content. Looking forward to seeing how the other players viewed the game.

      Thank you so much for your kind words. My assessment is that I am “almost there,” like I am one breakthrough away from becoming a titan of Diplomacy. There are so many players with decades of experience, tournament wins, and other badges of greatness that I am lacking. But, I have identified areas of improvement, so I think as long as I keep playing and working on myself, I’ll one day fulfill my aspiration.

      The other content is great! Probably the most illuminating for me was CaptainMeme’s video, where I learned that we each saw right through each other on almost everything, haha.
