  1. I have been strict with not commenting on the comments in this bin for my own sanity.
  2. However, since you really took the time to express yourself in a respectful manner and some of what you wrote - I want to address.
  3.  
  4. To make myself clear - I am the person who owns the bin, presses edit, presses save, and also writes the changelog.
  5. I am not the original leader of the project, I am not the deciding vote.
  6. Originally I was supposed to be uninvolved with strat decisions.
  7. My role in this project was to make the mit-sheet (mad mitty) and paste stuff in here once the strat people decided.
  8.  
  9. The letter by the creators was written by me but from a viewpoint of committy.
  10. What I type here in this comment is purely from my perspective and my side and as an individual.
  11.  
  12. Due to the difficulty of the ultimate - the plans and leadership for this got skewed and delayed (I wrote this in the letter).
  13. I stepped up temporarily as a guide to help navigate in the early days of the project.
  14. Once again, my role in this project was a mit-sheet maker and pretty hands off with strat discussion.
  15.  
  16. The people who created this project and put the time into helping PF, I personally didn't want to go to waste.
  17. The people of committy are really good people with good intentions and great players who want PF to succeed.
  18. I did the best I could as a person who wasn't supposed to be in this position.
  19. And I did it so that the project wouldn't die before it began.
  20.  
  21. I am a flawed human who really likes to make everyone happy and I do think it is why I do not make a good leader.
  22. It is impossible to make everyone happy.. But what is not impossible is being respectful and considerate of everyone.
  23.  
  24. With all this being said - I would like to personally apologize.
  25. What was written in this last week for the change log was not appropriate and shouldn't have been said.
  26. I finally let the multitude of horrendous comments as well as the frustration of stepping into a role, for way longer than I should have been, get to the best of me.
  27. I became bitter when I should have stayed respectful and considerate.
  28. The stress that I took on should never have been reflected back to people who did nothing.
  29. I do not consider the psychotic or negative comments to be a reflection of the people we are trying to help.
  30. I do hope people can forgive me for what was written during the week of the blackhole change.
  31.  
  32. In regards to your comments about Ulti Project:
  33. I am someone who was heavily part of ulti project, however I have not been apart of it for multiple seasons now.
  34. When I create Mitty I do not keep ulti project in mind - however ulti project members are part of my group that creates it.
  35. While I get my first clear with my static - I do PF and help PF a lot.
  36. I do not know the struggle of putting countless hours into PF for your prog and first clear - so I will not say I understand your pain.
  37. However, I have close friends and part of groups that I am close to that have people just like you.
  38. I listen and value their opinions and complaints in anything I create and participate in.
  39. Once I clear, I consistently help a multitude of prog parties - including early prog.
  40. I do not typically join duty complete parties and this goes for all ultimates.
  41. My joy comes from helping and being 1 consistent person so the progger(s) has a higher chance of moving forward.
  42. I also just genuinely enjoy playing the game and helping players specifically understanding mechanics or healing questions.
  43.  
  44. While you may think the changes on this bin were for ulti projects gain - I ensured that PF did not have to make any changes while providing options for them based on conversations that took place in Committy.
  45. I do understand how annoying things can be when options are presented after PF is set with what they are using.
  46. It does cause confusion, unnecessary wipes, and a divide in PF - especially if lack of communication happens.
  47. But in an attempt to make all parties happy (keeping in mind pf and committy) - the options were added.
  48. Please understand the group making decisions.. not all of them participate in ulti project nor are they part of it.
  49. Saying that changes or options are presented solely for the fact of ulti project is a mischaracterization of what happened.
  50.  
  51. Unfortunately because of lack of some things the conversation regarding blackholes took too long to progress and fell out of the window for PF to consider change, in my own personal opinion. At this time - leadership either did not exist or changed as I had stepped back.
  52. I believe if the options that were presented were done so in a reasonable time - none of this explosion would have happened.
  53. I do hope in future cases should a project like this occur again, things are done in a reasonable timeframe and presented better.
  54.  
  55. Do I personally believe double tether and SDA are better?
  56. My opinion is I do believe double tether is a better strat than what PF uses.
  57. But I also believe what PF uses is fine as well.
  58. Do I think PF should change because it would help prog p3 quicker for new players? Yes.
  59. Do I think PF should change now? I believe the window of opportunity closed.
  60. The example of me practicing what I preach above is the choice of Forsaken.
  61. The Forsaken strat committy chose as better was south adjust - I made a mistake and presented kroxy over south adjust.
  62. Because of my mistake, and still being in the guide role at this point - Kroxy stayed and I did not swap it back due to the window of opportunity being closed. The options were removed and PF solidified.
  63.  
  64. The personal note at the end of the letter was written by me and my view.
  65. I wish PF was more adapt to change and didn't solidify so quickly.
  66. What is considered quickly? That is an opinion of different people and possibly based on difficulty of the ultimate.
  67. I can understand the mindset out there of "I've been progging 100 hours with this strat I don't want to go back."
  68. But please consider the prog to get to where you were may be cut in half if an open mind and change was allowed.
  69.  
  70. This ultimate was the fastest growing ultimate in terms of resources from sims, to guides, raidplans, etc.
  71. There is evidence of this through data collectors should you ever wish to find this information.
  72. This was not something taken into consideration when the project started and was something we were attempting to adapt to.
  73.  
  74. I think I have addressed most of what I wanted to in your comment.
  75. I once again want to apologize for my role personally in this.
  76. Should I had forced myself to do a bit better in role I was not supposed to be in..
  77. I could have potentially caused a little less friction and a little less hurt.
  78.  
  79. I will most likely not reply to anymore comments - but please know I do read a good majority of them.
  80.  
  81. In any and all future I hope to do better for players should I decide to participate in anything.
  82.  
  83. Thank you for reading. Please enjoy Kefka Ultimate.
