Motivation - Why Play By Email?

We can think of three cases:

  1. You win regularly against the computer, and need more of a challenge from a wily, intelligent human.
  2. You lose regularly against the computer, and are looking to pick up some clues about playing successfully by playing with other people.
  3. You win sometimes, and you lose sometimes, but you want the social thrill of playing with other people.

So, pretty much anyone might want to play by email!

Note that play by email can be either cooperative or competitive, and you can decide how you want to play before embarking on a game. Of course, the best games involve a mix of cooperation (with your allies) and competition (with your enemies). And sometimes your allies turn into enemies, and your enemies turn into allies, and everything gets confusing, and chaos reigns until someone wins...

But then, that's what makes it fun!
