I've wanted to make this video for well over a year but always found a reason to do something else instead. Today, I had enough.

Please be sure to check these resources out:

* "The Psychology of Losing" - this article tells you straight up why people actually hate invasions: beyondseattime.com/the-psychology-of-losing

* Classic Nyff rant on the invasion mechanic: youtube.com/watch?v=9f-ubQlRtH8

* Classic Nyff rant about how disconnecting isn't punished adequately, and he riffs about some potential fixes (mostly they're ideas already implemented in other games): youtube.com/watch?v=E29VFL3Dj7w

* DangitJM's take on the invasion mechanic appears to have been removed. If anyone has a link, please let me know
