Hello all,

I am currently undertaking research as a part of my doctoral studies and as a part of that I am doing a study investigating expert video game decision-making. Taking part would require participants to sit in a 1 hour recorded interview (you should allow 2 hours of your time). I am looking for players who have competed in any of the following league divisions and above, or equivalent:

  • European Team Fortress 2 League (ETF2L) - Division 2
  • Recharge Gaming League (RGL) - Advanced
  • ozfortress (OZF) - High
  • AsiaFortress - Division 1

You must also be over the age of 18 and have access to a computer or device capable of conducting a video call. Taking part in this research is entirely voluntary. It is up to you to decide if you want to volunteer for the study. I will be happy to respond to any questions you may have in this thread, but if you want the full details of the study I recommend that you reach out to me and I will send you documents with everything you would need to know. All necessary information will be provided and you will have at least 24 hours to review all documents before any scheduled interview/study.

The deadline for applications will be Tuesday 2nd August at 23:59 BST. If this is something that you feel that you would be interested in taking part in and you meet the above criteria, feel free to reach out to me through my Discord (DrHappiness#0897). If you would prefer me to send details to an email, please DM me on Discord where I will then send you any contact details you require. I will not be sending any documents through TFTV.

Thank you in advance!

wiitabix69420does highlander count? :D

Unfortunately I'm probably going to have to limit it to 6s only for this one. Don't want to muddy the water with different formats.

So the interview is semi-structured; in short I will have questions, but the answers can be very open and free form. You would be asked to recall a match - or matches - in the past and the questions will be about what and why you did certain things.

These interviews would be transcribed for data analysis. The data may be used for formal academic publications of the findings, as well as contribute towards my thesis. There is no plan for a public video using any of the data found, but I might be open to discussing that once the study and research has concluded.

Quickly bumping this thread. There have been a few interviews so far, but I would greatly appreciate a few more, so I will be extending the deadline for applications to Tuesday 2nd August at 23:59 BST. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me via Discord or in this thread.
