I would encourage anyone who has not played ftf to give it a go. Here is a place to start:

There is a North American Championship this year in VT. If you want more info, post here or pm me.
Also, the World Diplomacy Championship returns to North America next year in Chicago. This year it was in Australia.
Tournaments are a lot of fun. It's fairly intense, but you get to meet a lot of great folks from around the world . . . and stab them!
Honestly, if you've not played the game ftf, you've not played the game. PBEM is fine, but it is cushy and relaxed. Some call it a variant and I'm not sure they're wrong. It is a very different game.
