Still, I didn’t expect that just quietly playing my games would somehow turn into a target for speculation.What really gets me is how even changing my language setting somehow became a reason for suspicion. Seriously? People switch languages all the time — for UI, communication, or just personal preference.I switched because it helps me better fit in and communicate effectively in the English environment I’m in now. If that’s part of the “evidence,” then it’s clear you’re just trying to force a narrative.
It is what it is. Suspicious. Both the shared nationality and the timing of the switch. I don't even want to get into why a lot of your nationals masquerade around, I suppose the expected retort is to avoid prejudice. But he doesn't have to force a narrative, it forces itself.

Then, you said I “played 100–200 ELO below my rating,” like your elo gives you the authority to judge how others should play. You assume the worst just because the outcome didn’t favor you ,which says more about your mindset than anything about my gameplay.Honestly, this whole post reads like you expected me to take down your rival, and when I didn’t, you decided to spin a conspiracy. Instead of looking at your own performance, you’re out here tossing baseless accusations. That’s unfair, and on top of that, it’s toxic to the whole community.
I reviewed the game. There is no smoking gun per se that it was thrown and I'm not the best of players to judge suboptimal play. But even I raised an eyebrow at more then one thing that could imply coordination between players. I could go into them if you'd like. This compounds with the previous thing. To add to the conspiracy that's been spun, your comment looks like it's been put through an LLM. Which, if it was, ew. I'm not JD's groupie, even on our own side of the community it is known he lacks tact, but I would argue what adds more toxicity to the community is the China vs west chauvinism. I'm tired of that crap, and you guys have your own fair share of perpetuating it.
Maybe I'm just tilting at windmills, so I'm not gonna invest myself further.
