Kosmit I do not intend to argue that your opinion is unfair. I had selected the map pool with only 3 to 4 CTB maps at most, and the rest are all Standard Converts initially, but the Map Selection Team have decided otherwise to have eveyone's preferences in it and not just mine alone. I do know that CTB maps can be mundane, but if the team decides that more of such is better, then I as part of the team has to comply. Please understand that no one holds dictatorship over map selection and thus I don't think it's right for me to do so. We have to consider every selectors' opinions so we can have equal say. No one person is to be blamed here because we came to one single decision as a team. If any, it would be me as the sole selector all along for not doing well this time round. My apologies.
Sorry to erase any expectations to change, but my belief is that once the map pool is released, it shall not be changed. Any changes that could be made, should be made before the final posting, and once it is open to the public, it is set, even if I don't like it or the players feedback negatively. But at the end of the day, that's just my stand, if the Tournament Management wants to revert to the original map pool, or alter their decisions in any other ways, that's their call, because this is their tournament and they have the right of the final say. I'm very sorry for letting you down with the map pool, and both the team and I will try our best to select the most fun and exciting map pool for the upcoming Grand Finals.
