I just wanted to say that having been a part of the LT and running events for them, I do know where you're coming from, and yeah tabletop is currently far more interesting for me than running LRP (or attending for that matter as I am currently in hiatus from it).
But I do feel the need to say that Star War was one of the most fun experiences I've had, and I enjoyed it greatly.
It pulled me out of a massive rut when everything else was falling apart, and I thank you for playing a part in putting me back together.
ha ha, well I know that you've given lots of people lots of pleasure while it lasted ;-)
interesting the different aspects people cherish about games though: one of the things I love about LARPs over tabletop is downtiming, it adds an extra dimension to them as games (but, for me, very much remains a roleplaying rather than a purely strategic experience) while providing a balance to that real-life social-skills imbalance you mention
on the other hand I couldn't agree with you more about the overkill of total immersion: I love roleplaying but when I'm not doing it I really don't feel much of a need to talk about it, so I'd better stop!

So thank you Dave, I genuinely thank you.

How many games in Insurection are left?
I might be interested, my thought was to create a character or group pivitol to your plot and then not turn up :P
(I understand absolutly why you guys couldn't make it often enough and it was a great shame as I had plans for you all :D)
