Well I apologize for my little rant, lol. I was pretty drunk when I got home last night, hahaha, and I think it took me almost an hour to write, correcting all the spelling mistakes :P
Perhaps those people who face palmed and egged you on should read my post... I still think it stands mostly true to the fact that there's only so many names on the list. Perhaps it's time to get those little birdies to post their own names, and their preferred contact method being through IRC???
Food for thought. ;P
And, what do you mean about your rep got higher? With who?
Fact is, you and Dry don't have your names placed on the Mentor List. The guy's asking for a mentor. We each have our specialties. You and Dry want to focus on your project, go right ahead, I don't see anything being wrong with that, but you don't have to be totally balls to the wall overly passive aggressive towards DrSuperEvil.
I've worked with Dryeyece and I know he's amazing. I've seen your stuff Dogmai, again, you are amazing at what you do. Me, I don't think I'm amazing, but I've got some talent no doubt for the amount of time I put into the Editor. I've no desire to spend MONTHS making a map. Not to toot my own horn or anything, but I've turned down a few lead data editor positions from very strong projects(I've never told anyone before because it didn't matter), because A) I don't have the time for it/don't want to devote the time to it. and B) I do data editing as a hobby.
I'm sure DrSuperEvil was referring to actual Mentors when he wrote "no better than X".
I'm sure if Dryeyece posted alot of maps and even participated in WDE's or just random shit on the forum, and had put his name up for Mentor, that he'd have been mentioned no doubt.
What, are we supposed to refer people to you, Dry, ProzaicMuze, or even progammer? NO. Because that'd probably flood your inboxes and take time away from your projects and because you/they aren't on the fucking list.
I've referred several people to DrSuperEvil and/or Kueken at times because they were asking for help with things I'd never explored before but I knew that either of them would likely know. Hypothetically, if someone would ask about some crazy, over the top ability that I couldn't figure out, I would reference Dryeyece without even thinking, IF he was on the list.
So before you go "calling out people's bullshit", take everything into context.
I was flat out surprised and shocked that DrSuperEvil even mentioned me, and I thought of Dry because he helped me out quite a bit in my early days. But you didn't see me post and suggest Dry because he ain't on the god damn list.
Maps: I haven't released any maps on BNet or SC2Mapster, but I do alot of self projects, trying to discover new things and come up with some insane ideas. Here's a link to my Youtube with some of my videos. LINK
Also have many maps with semi-complex to complex Ability setups that are not displayed.

Yes, you're better than me. GET OVER IT.
