Aztez,
Yes, I think that the 99% figure is probably correct. Still I'm happy to allow you to hold your views and not give out when you start a game under said viewpoint. Its all a matter of opinion after all. I'm comfortable leaving you to yours so long as you and others leave me to mine.
I'm more than happy to agree with you to let this lie... the only exception will be that given my own experiences in games I DO take a keen interest in pointing out the need for house rules to newer players in the opponent's wanted thread and will give examples from my personal experience of house rules I now have and why I have them... I trust that this single exception to "letting it all lie" is acceptable to you.
As to the rest... Fine, you don't like my personality. I have no problem with that as liking someone is almost entirely irrelevant on a forum with people one will almost certainly never meet. The only exception is that for most people dislike colours their interpretation of what others say and insofar as your dislike does that it has some, minor, relevance. So long as there's no misrepresentation I, personally, don't care if you make a little voodoo doll of me and stick pins in it all day every day ;).
Grudge with this game? No, but I don't like misrepresentation etc and will always seek to clarify that. I consider everything which needed clarifying clarified and if there is no further misrepresentation then there will be no obligation on me to clarify anything. Simple.
As to the apologies... Aztez, I cannot apologise for something I didn't say and didn't intend to imply. What I will say is that IF through any lack of thought or care I implied something which was untrue then, obviously, I apologise unreservedly for that. I would never wish to imply an untruth about anyone either intentionally or unintentionally and if I did that to you then, yes, I do apologise absolutely unreservedly. I cannot, however, apologise for things I never said or implied.
As to personality having nothing to do with the job ;)... Oh on this we will have to agree to disagree. Everyone who works in medicine knows that certain personalities make good researches, others good surgeons, others good cardiologists, others good geriatricians, others good psychiatrists... If you got the best researcher in the world and made him a surgeon he'd be atrocious since he just wouldn't have the personality and mindset for it... The current theory is that people self-select for their job by subconsciously identifying qualities they either feel they have or would like to have in their consultants while they are junior doctors and students and then tend to self-select themselves into those specialties. Still, I know the point you are trying to make about my personality... that I am an objectionable person etc etc etc and I have no problem with you believing that. As I said, it is irrelevant to this situation so long as it doesn't cloud your interpretation of what I write in the future or your reaction to it.
And lastly, on a human and emotional level ( which I do very rarely let out of the bag ) I am truly sorry to hear of your loss and wish you and yours the best of health in the future. And, while I wouldn't expect you to ever feel like taking me up on this, I would state openly that IF anyone ever did have an issue medically etc then so long as it is understood that there are limits to any perspective which can be offered from the other side of the world I would always be willing to offer whatever advice or sucour I could. I'm one of the few doctors you'll meet who has a policy of stopping for every crash I come across. That's not a good or a bad thing or any play for "maybe he isn't actually an as*hole" ( since I would actively despise such putrid plays on emotionality) it is just a decision I made and explanation for why I would try to offer advice on a "good samaritan" basis. So, if anyone happens to have a metaphorical crash I would always give the best, honest advice possible if asked, and have done so in the past on a few occasions privately elsewhere.
