About the game and other related topics.

Only heroes, only hardcore. All other contests can be held as a side activity if you want, but don't force everyone to wait and watch, because at an event dedicated to Heroes, there should be heroes and everything related to them. No one is obligated to entertain visitors who know nothing about it. But this – "In my show, I'm used to catering to the audience. And this audience consists not only of hardcore fans, but also of guests with their wives, and last year there were even children. And many who have distanced themselves from Heroes enough that they can't answer detailed questions. Out of 40-45 guests this year, only 24 were playing. At the same time, at least 4 of them were there as technical support. That means 50% of the audience was not engaged. This is absolutely unacceptable to me" – this is what I find unacceptable. I'm not coming to socialize with wives and children or those who just came along for the ride and to drink. I'm also not very interested in watching them have fun at your contests. If someone wants to join the group, they should adapt. If a Heroes fan brings their family or girlfriend, they should explain what they're getting into. What worries me more is that every year, the Heroes session is increasingly resembling an alcohol-fueled session. People are drinking more and more, and it's interfering with the main event, and this also applies to the founder of this topic. So far, it hasn't crossed the critical threshold, but it's clearly approaching it.
