I don't know how many players this message will reach and whether the mapper themselves is subscribed to the thread, but still.
It may strike you as unexpected, but I came here to apologize to Hollow Wings (and every single person who's been supporting this map) for my past behaviour. During these two years, in my thoughts I've returned to the whole situation around Genryuu Kaiko over and over, over and over, and eventually I felt I couldn't justify decisions I took back then. Moreover, I found them really harmful and, well, let's say it, absolutely pointless and unnecessary. Havind disqualified the map, I;ve stopped following it and left it hanging in the air, I have only made a lame reference to similar events that took place in the past, hell, I haven't even stated in a clear and acceptable way what WAS wrong with the map in the first place. While I should have been busy moderating the ranked maps section, I started
censoring it, being convinced that this is the way it should be.
Although this very post has little to no value due to long time passed since the described events, it's sincere. While I still can't say I like Genryuu Kaiko or welcome it, I have to agree that what I've done was absolutely awful and... unfair? Yeah, that was it. I shouldn't have let my personal preferences and views take precedence over everything else.
In other words, I am sorry for what I've done to both the map and Hollow Wings. I also think my post should be public and belong to the thread, just like the
cause of it.
