Imo, I think having 150? slots is more than enough but I'm not against increasing that to 200 or 300. Having an option to download your own replays would be interesting as well.

I won't hide the fact that when I first saw that thread, I considered completely stopping the Manual Score Recovery thing. Even thinking about leaving the website at this point, I'm really disappointed by all of this. I won't do it because I do care about the community and I do care about how scoring data is treated here. Am I the only one that cares about all of this ? I'm sure devs do, but how can we know if they don't express themselves ?

These past months, I've felt like defending staff because they are the easy target and we don't see the amount of work they have to do - only a small percentage of us kind of know what's going on behind the scenes. Gonna speak for myself there, but the amount of shit I have to manage goes completely unnoticed, and it doesn't phase me at this point because I'm used to it. But I mean, everytime someone makes a mention or thank me for the work I'm making here, goddamn it makes me feel good and that's the only reason why I'm still here. The ONLY way people are gonna take your side is when you're informing and telling the community about the stuff you're handling because how would they know ?

As irritated as I have been with how this is going on, I will say that I've actually mentioned what you're doing and how it is incredibly commendable. Full disclosure: I considered you kinda pushy and borderline annoying (internally, never really said it until a few days ago in the process of actually complimenting you) at times, but what you are doing now is a huge service to this community, and you very much deserved to be recognized.

The fact that you're providing more transparency than relevant staff about what has been going on in is an atrocity on their part (but good for you).

Keep doing what you're doing.
