I mean it was a weird match. But both of you wanted to play it that way so not that it's something bad. I literally write this kind of reports since 2018 so if you don't like it just don't read it
When you are reporting a match on the forums, you are still acting as the official referee and it's therefore always better to keep any comments as neutral as possible. Explaining in length what happened throughout the encounter so that people who were not present can get an accurate picture of what happened is honestly always very much appreciated, nevertheless, I don't think it was really necessary to imply that this match wasn't necessarily 'playoff material'. As someone who often reads your match recap in detail, it has never struck me that you would give such a personal opinion on the way things unfolded but maybe I have simply not paid attention enough.
Anyhow, Stockholm has been one of the refs that put the most work in the EIC thus far, as well as countless other tournaments before that. Taking the time to write these lengthy recaps at the end of each match he covered shows he has his heart set on doing things with quality and respect so if for one time we might have misinterpreted what he implied or simply disagree with how he worded it, it's really not that big of a deal.
Good luck to the 13e boys climbing back the lower bracket & commiserations to the 77y for yet another deep playoff run.
