I'm going to give my story, and I'm going to keep it brief and be real. Will, Sanc, and Val will read this and think "yea I remember that". Anyone in the dUP discord will read this and think "yea he did say that". It's simply what happened. So if you want to hate on any mod, I think I'll be the appropriate target and please leave them out of it. Free for all: say what you need to say.
My story: I didn't want to participate in this at all, because I'm a competitive player. I don't care what it is, I want to win. When GMs posted in supporter forum, I was the first one who gave the impression of "you know what this is an event we should probably lose, I want to stay out of it". Because Thor said "take it easy on the ballers it's Christmas , but it's up to you", and I quoted that and said I can't participate because I'm ineligible.
I still ended up as a sub in case someone had to go. It almost turned out how I wanted (not playing, turned down only opportunity to play), but I had to play the last game where I played like I would have through all of them. I can't take up for Will and Sanc winning at least 3 games no matter what even if I hadn't played. However, I can take 100% of the blame for insinuating any type of competitive attitude from us overall in an event like this. And I will add that if I had to play the games before that I would've driven the scoreboard up as much as I could, I'll admit to it and that's all I have to say about that. I'm just being honest. GM Thor said "but it's up to you", if it's up to me then that's what I would have done. In the final game I told them let's just go out and play we won't do iso or anything. Y'all can do whatever, but personally I'm going to try to win.
In summary: if you think winning in this event was wrong then the GMs and other mods are innocent. I'm 100% the one you should be hating. If there is another event like this and I have to play in it again then you better bring it I'll promise you that. I'm a player mod for a lot of reasons. But losing on purpose in any scenario wasn't one of them and never will be and that's just the player I am.
