Can I state something here so that everybody knows this battle thing was never an issue to me until it became an issue. Don't beat dead horses and all that:

-I disagreed with some nuances of the judgment
(I emailed Meryl, we were both courteous and I assured her I was not hurt or anything. It's my right to disagree. She told me she was sick at the time and did, in fact, make one or two errors although it didn't influence the overall outcome.)
-I got some information from Meryl and decided I wanted Lz to rejudge. I didn't know whether I was going to win or lose but I wanted to iron out discrepancies. Meryl assured me Lz had helped with half the fight but I wanted her to look over the other half.
-Lz rejudged, I lost and all was well with the world. Sol and I are great and no hard feelings.
-Staff posted a note which got my back up and so I messaged to clarify a few things, after which I felt better.
-Fate posted a note which I think was supposed to be uplifting but only served to get my back up again (sorry honey I'm sure you meant well but your timing was a little off)

Really guys, I don't see how I've handled this badly at all. I've been courteous throughout and given reasons for every action and reaction. So sue me if I get a little attached to my chars. For that moment their feelings become mine (as they do for everyone). I know what it is to lose gracefully - trust me I've lost plentiful times on this site and others, but this one time I felt a bit wronged and everybody went all up in arms which made me defensive. This wasn't a big issue. I am usually super easygoing and try to please everybody - hell I've even been borderline bullied on here and I never complained about the person (and won't now). That's why I think its a bit unfair that all this is getting so much attention after I asked for a simple re-judgment.

This is the last time I'm posting on the matter from my point of you. I know this apparent issue has happened numerous times and its not just about me but all this arose after my battle as though it was the straw that broke the camel's back. Naturally, as I said before, it made me defensive even though I was fine. I don't take injustices well as I'm sure you've noticed (even if those injustices were perceived). I don't care about winning, I care about fairness. Plain and simple.

So read, make up your own mind, but please leave the issue alone. I'm sure everybody gets it. I'm tired of feeling like this on the place where I come to get away from drama. I hate drama. That's why I have never stirred up issues nor spoke my mind truly before now.

Take or leave what I've said, I just felt like an explanation was required.

I love you all, don't forget that, but this needed to be said. I realize that it takes a lot of effort to judge and am profoundly grateful for all the time Staff puts into this. I didn't mean to come across as ungrateful or anything.

Just needed to let everybody know.
