Fast don&#039;t be too offended by this. There has been an obscene amount of criticism leveled at the people who do the most for this league lately and while I personally know that you have done a lot and want to do more for this league some people aren&#039;t as aware because you&#039;re been a little less vocal about it lately. <br /><br />Everything the board thus far has done has been to make IDL more fun and more accessible for the players who play in it. Whether there is a league-wide or even board-wide agreement about this or not isn&#039;t something we can see to and still get things done. We know we don&#039;t always do the best job. No one always does the best job. In the future consider that we&#039;re trying to make a really good league for you guys to play in and it might be worth cutting us some slack now and again. One such consideration might be not posting every drunken priv log on the forums :)<br /><br />Trashing the maps is a time honored tradition and people have been more than living up to it this year, myself included. Fast I don&#039;t think you meant to do that but amid the firing squad of negative criticism some valuable constructive criticism can get lost. For instance last night I played in a priv with whiteboy and dewww and we played the libraries map (map24). White and I commented that the map was really stupidly bad and dewww was a little offended by that. ALL of the parties involved had a great deal to do with picking maps for considering. Dew and I personally voted on the maps in that made it in yet we were found in a server arguing the merits of the map while playing it. <br /><br />What I&#039;m trying to say is that it&#039;s not that we don&#039;t want to field criticism, we do. We just want you guys not to be giant jerks about it. And statements like &quot;Did you even playtest these maps?!&quot; are a little insulting. Drunken Mass definitely overreacted but the point stands. If you really want to find out why we choose some maps, post here and ask or irc us. If you just want to call us stupid you shouldn&#039;t expect anything different in return.<br /><br />Again I want to reiterate that I don&#039;t take what you guys do for granted. I&#039;m glad Fast is playing again and I&#039;m glad he&#039;s a part of IDL. Ditto for White and Chain. The board has been a contentious place lately and any constructive criticism should be met with appreciate and consideration. I&#039;ll do my best in that regard and I assume the other board members will as well, sans Gin.
