Sure, now it starts at home. The implication from your rhetoric and those of your IOs (and members too? Not sure I usually ignore those) was that this event would bring order to a chaotic world. How is that not claiming this to be a game changer in any sense? I already know that this never will work in that manner and I know it wasn't designed to. But that is the salesmanship we've been exposed to for 30 days prior to the actual event taking place.
Somehow I think simply announcing that you were looking for a sparring partner in 30 days instead of all these empty speeches about making the world a better place would have been preferable. If not for you, now, then for everyone else who really isn't impressed.
Don't take this as an attack on the idea of wargames for the sake of fun itself. That's perfectly fine, I doubt anybody aside from the most prolific of stat huggers, would argue otherwise. A lot of us just don't want to be sold the cart before the ox is all.
