Hi Guanfranco, I'm catching up with all of your interviews. It's great that you've brought attention to people I'm not as familiar with. Some great content. I like your approach to questioning/discussion and the amount of ground you cover. Keep up the good work and thank you.

Thank you. More great AoE content! A welcome reminder that no matter how many Twitch subscribers you have, how many tournaments you win or how good you think you are.... we are all standing on the shoulders of giants. And Matt Pritchard is a colossus! He also sounds like a wonderful human being.

This is very good. I particularly enjoyed how accessible it is; mostly steering clear of in-jokes, memes and jargon. I also liked the relaxed style, open ended questioning/story-telling and that you address a wide spectrum of topics (including the critiques). I agree with the comment from...

Unless most of the players are over 60, it would be more accurate to call it the "GenX Cup". Damn kids [angrily shakes walking stick at a cloud]!

In 1184, the administration of Troy decided to wheel a giant wooden horse inside the city walls. Thanks to Nerfox, this is now ranked as only the second worse admin decision in human history. But there is hope.... I'm 1-0 for having terrible admin decisions overturned through threat of boycott...

With a little more co-ordination and effort I think some kind of 'affirmative action' could be beneficial. There are, after all, still a reasonable number of DM players and a larger group of casual supporters. - Some of whom are very high profile within the game and could create a lot of...

I probably over romantacise the 'good old days' through nostalgia, but there's something I miss about having to wait months for a serious match between two of the top players. The ability to avoid certain opponents through the lobby system meant that some match-ups were rarely played, and when...

This message shall self destruct, else I should become the fool. @admin please help!!!

For anyone that missed the announcement on Viper's Twitch stream, this is the moment he broke the devastating news to his viewers.... https://twitch.tv.clip/twang104do

Without transparency we’re all left to draw conclusions from limited information. Based on the responses here and in Lidakor’s stream, my own assessment is that the punishment is astonishingly disproportionate. Directing anger and claims of disrespect for the tournament and sponsor seems...

Thanks for organising yet another major tournament guys. Some feedback from me: I know it's the major concept for the whole thing, but I really don't like the hidden gimmick. The thing I love most about big tournaments is the emotional roller-coaster of cheering for my favourite players...

Can you still see partially chopped trees through the fog of war? That always felt like something that should be removed.

No blame and I'm looking forward to seeing how it evolves. So many of the player interviewers feel a bit cold and dry, i suppose it takes time for someone to feel comfortable in the presence of an interviewer and be willing to open up more. The post-game winner interviews are those rare...

We’re starting to veer into personal attacks now, so I’ll offer some concluding remarks. Thanks to everyone who responded to my initial questions and was able to focus on the act and not personalities involved. As to whether offering advice to teammates once the map has been revealed for a...
