I'm going to write up something more detailed later since I'm kind of drained right now but

In fairness I did know about a lot of these OOC issues going on just from chatting with Alli and Cappy about stuff throughout the game,

but from my perspective I feel like all three of you guys did a really good job

I read what you wrote Xander and I think you're being way, way too harsh on yourself

there were some issues but this type of game is so much goddamn work. i know from experience.

it never goes off without a hitch, trials never happen without mistakes, and it's impossible to mod one without having to change things that are not working

IMO you guys were incredibly, incredibly generous with trying to make the metaplot work and hand out fun things to do to everyone that wanted it

even though you guys were dead tired and neither of you signed up for a job as big and intense as this wound up being

i knew cappy and had modded with her before this game, but i didn't know xander at all and i found you super professional and easy to talk to and discuss things with

i get it if you don't want to mod again but tbh i would play in another game run by you guys in a heartbeat, taking into account the lessons learned

the first game cappy and i modded together was fun but had a LOT of flaws too, and we learned from it and built some games that were much better

so yeah i just wanted to say that b/c even if things weren't perfect i have a lot of respect and appreciation for how many really cool and fun things you guys pulled off in pretty tough circumstances

that's not to imply that the criticisms are invalid but i think they can exist without any of you being blamed or anyone being personally angry with you guys

ahh thank you siz! i really appreciate that. i think ultimately my performance wasn't up to snuff for myself, if that makes sense. but i'll admit i can be a perfectionist.

i'm glad you had fun, and i hope everyone had at least some fun. if not, that's what this is for

i also really do appreciate you saying all this, it's nice to hear that you can see we really did what we could with what we had. thank you

thanks for putting the post up guys

thank you for this! and yes i totally agree regarding xander being too harsh on herself HAHA i told you this in our private plurk but xander you did fantastic

especially as a first time mod

also thirding siz's sentiment but i told you that in private xander

UGH you guys are too nice to me. be mean. i want to cry for the right reasons

no but thank you guys, i really do appreciate it

yeah for sure, I'm so glad I could help out and was helpful to you guys! You both put in so much work and I definitely had a ton of un

*fun

thanks for getting this up and being so open with us!!! i really can't thank the modteam enough for all the effort they put into the game, you're all absolute delights ♥

ugh i knew there was something i forgot -- alli you were incredible, thank you for your help

and thank you guys. you were really the reason we held out! as long as you guys had fun, really, it was worth it

I have to agree that you may be too hard on yourself, Ms. Xander, but at the same time, from what I noticed and the little I know, your criticisms to the pacing and the orchestrating of some parts of the plot

seem accurate to me

I did feel there was something off about endgame, but I couldn't pinpoint exactly what it was...but yeah, that post did explain it

But yeah, I don't think you did as badly as you think you did!

thank you for being honest, nick! i really do appreciate that

it's helpful to know how obvious these things were, and speaking up and saying that is something i really, seriously appreciate

aw I agree with what everyone else has said! you're too hard on yourself!

ty for putting up this post guys!

no, thank you for putting up with us!

echoing everyone, thank you for this post guys and for being honest with us
