Tom didn't disappoint, sharing some cool facts about the data that is collected and stored, the game simulation and much more in between.Really enjoyed this and I must admit I was surprised at how realist the game has become since I was a regular player many years ago!Thanks again to Tom for his time and for SI games for making this happen.Do you play, or are you a part of the game?
