Project - Doubles Community Spotlight #10 - Jello (2024)

Could you tell us a little bit about yourself?
Hi, I’m Hunter, recent computer science grad that plays way too much Pokemon.

What does qsns stand for and how is it pronounced? Is it q s n s or quiznos?
My headcanon is pronouncing the letters individually. I am happy when people do not do this so I can forget the embarrassing account I signed up with when I was 13.

How did you end up getting into competitive Pokemon and Doubles specifically? What made you stick around at the time?
I somehow snuck onto the Serebii forums when I was 10 to do wifi trading (my parents were quite livid) and got into competitive mons from there. First exposure to Doubles was through Verlisify, and stuck around DOU after winning a 4 person suspect tour with Umbreon. I promise you, no matter where any of you started, it was less embarrassing than mine.

For a few years it felt like your tournament performances did not live up to your reputation and quality as a player. To speak of a breakout year nearly a decade feels insane, but the qsnssaince is undeniable with a 61-17 record this year; what has been the biggest key to this massive improvement in results? Who and what have been your key influences, helpers, and inspirations throughout the year?
Probably my biggest “oh f*ck” moment while playing a video game was Nails ghosting me in Hearthstone. He was at the time the rank 1 player on the NA server and no question the best in the world at piloting the Spell Mage deck at the time. Nearly every turn, I auto piloted the game I’d been playing for a decade, blindly believing I’d made a good decision, and he’d stop me after I had already clicked to correct me on “this is not the correct choice of extra resource in the matchup” or “this is not how the matchup plays” or a million other things. Within an hour, it really inspired me to actually think about my turns. It sounds stupid as hell, but I’d just played so many games that my critical analysis had turned down to zero and thinking about my incorrect plays or doubting my immediate instincts hurt my ego. This translated over into Pokemon this year, I think. Thank you very much Nick Navarre, Hearthstone superstar.

Genuinely, I think the biggest improvements besides that have been my a. separation of my self-worth from my performance in a children’s competitive video game and b. development of my self-confidence. I used to be extremely bad with choking and not being able to close out a game. I am significantly better with my timer management and ability to play under pressure these days and actively look for easy turns with easy buttons to click to save 30 seconds. I have a lot more confidence in making reads and am not scared of my opponents. I still care about my wins and losses - I get happy, sad, mad and everything in between - but I dwell on them a lot less now. It’s been a pleasant experience, though it did take a decade to develop.

Playing a thousand games with Bagel helped during SV. That part helped a lot. Thank you Bagel.

qsns boasts a #1 64-19 record in Doubles on the year, winning their first solo trophies in DPP Cup and Oldgens Invitationals, respectively.​

Despite having little-to-no pre-Home tournament activity, you managed to make it to OSDT III's semifinals. How do you look back on your result; did you expect making a deep run at all? Is there anything you wish you would've done differently against xqiht? And what was your favorite match to prepare and/or play for?
I didn’t really recognize it at the time, but my ability and motivation shot through the roof after starting 3-0 in the tournament. I think I recognized I was going for a deep run when I discovered the magic power of going onto Limitless and stealing things for VGC tours. Looking back at previous generations in hindsight, they usually stabilized a year after we started copying the best VGC structures, and I was feeling strong with my head start on that!

I just got smashed in the xqiht match. It was a very clean 2-0 from him and I think it showed me the limitations of blindly believing the Limitless doctrine. They tend to be fantastic starting points, but adjusting for the 6v6 format and your opponent is important. VGC teams tend to be designed for a wider field and I could have brought something more resistant to off-metagame picks, as xq was bringing at the time. Wouldn’t really go back and change anything, it was an important lesson and I’m very glad he could make finals.

Going for 15.5k in SCL III seemed quite scary, but you proved being worth it with your 7-1 record. Even though you unfortunately did not make the playoffs, how do you reflect back on the tournament and on working with sempra and Amaranth, respectively? Did sempra's VGC knowledge play a key role in team preparation? What was your favorite match to prepare and/or play for?
I was quite happy getting Sempra on the team because I was deathly afraid of flopping in a team tournament again (especially after going for 15.5k) and wanted someone’s play quality that I could trust in case I did poorly. He was helpful in tossing around initial ideas for my teams, especially weeks 1 and 4. I am hoping you stick around and start in every tour sempra :D

I get bored of Pokemon sometimes and I build garbage that works about 25% of the time. Amaranth told me not to bring that garbage and instead bring boring good teams. This worked out because a. I was using good Pokemon instead of garbage and b. I get the most enjoyment in the game from throwing stat sticks at my opponents, and this kept my motivation up. I think I would’ve brought an Eviolite Flaafy-tier team at some point if Amaranth was not on the team. I attribute a lot of my success in this tour to Amaranth telling me a lot of “no”s and his good game sense on the powerful things to do in the tier.

Also croven was in the server. He unsurprisingly did not contribute to the teams at all but the vibes and the “is qsns the best” in the game chats were immaculate and extremely appreciated.

How are you feeling going into the Circuit Invitationals? Who would you consider, besides yourself, to be the biggest favorite to take home the ribbon this year?
I think Bagel is genuinely the second coming of Christ in DOU. I have played against him hundreds of times at this point, and I’ve seen so much improvement happening so rapidly. I think I went 2-12 testing against him for Week 8 of SCL - I had to start counting because I got very irritated. There are days where I feel like I’m playing against a Nails alt, which is about the highest compliment I can give. Hoping for him to take it home, though I think everyone in the playoffs is extremely strong. I think Farfromani and Entrocefalo are quietly some of the most solid performers and preppers in the tournament and would also love to see them take it. I am always rooting for my hero Raf, xqiht and the other churchers/jerkers zee and Nido.

Speaking of Invitationals, you just managed to, unsurprisingly but impressively, win the inaugural Oldgens Invitationals. Can you elaborate some on your expertise in Doubles's old generations, and would you consider yourself to be the real strongest oldgens player?
I have just been around for a while and I’m playing pretty well at the moment. I challenged myself to build new SM teams for the tournament, as it currently has the reputation of being a solved or stagnant format, and could not find that farther from the truth. There is a lot of value to be gained in porting sets and concepts from previous generations up to the one you’re prepping for, as well as backporting ideas from more current generations. I definitely understand enjoying one generation over another, but I do not think “specialists” would perform significantly worse in other oldgens tier - good Pokemon players are just good Pokemon players, in general.

I don’t know if I’m the strongest player or anything, oldgens invitational was an absolute blast to play in because the play quality was consistently high.

You have been especially good at DPP Doubles, with a 12-1 record to date. What would you consider the essential attributes to get results in this tier?
I’ve found DPP to be the most honest generation of Pokemon and getting good results is often from being “creatively dishonest.” I have put Toxic on basically everything bulkier than a Deoxys-Attack to circumvent the general bulk of the tier. Dual Screens into setup is very powerful. Explosion is somehow a genuinely underexplored move, and catching people off guards with Boom is powerful.

You still have to stay within the confines of the generation, which means the stat sticks are going to be bashing into each other for most of the game, but you get a ton of leverage for identifying common metagame trends.

qsns maintains a superb 13-2 record in DPP, taking home the DPP Cup trophy along the way. They're 29-6 in games.​

Could you rank Doubles' oldgens from most to least favorite, and explain your ranking? Are there any tiering decisions you'd like to see made or talked about in any older generation?
DPP
Probably gets some recency and results bias but I have a blast every time I play. The tier has its “staples” of good stat sticks like Metagross and TTar but the rest of the tier is constantly in flux. The tier is extremely straightforward to play - you’re almost always rewarded for strong building, reacting to metagame trends, and good positional play. There’s a ton that is not on the VR that’s definitely good and a ton of unexplored sets on the best. I enjoy the consistent pacing and damage thresholds that the top tier Pokemon hit (threatening OHKOs is quite rare), allowing much more in depth planning and resource management.

XY = SM
XY is a tough nut to crack because the metagame is so rigid, but it leads to the most wild evolutions. The best teams in XY 2 years ago would just die to any Conkeldurrs or any Deoxys-Speed hazard stacks going around right now, sentences both unheard of until recently. It’s so fun to watch the metagame evolve. Zee wrote a quick history on the metagame since 2021 - a rarely played, decade old metagame, mind you - and its length speaks to the incredible creativity of the playerbase. Though my record isn’t great this year, I am proud to have pioneered a lot of the MGar balance builds in 2021 and anyone who has pushed development in this tier should also feel very proud and very creative!

SM is probably the ideal DOU metagame. Extremely wide variety of options, solid staples that are rarely overbearing, plenty of strong balance builds, methodical to play, etc. I find it difficult to build for, as the wide variety has led to me scrapping a lot of ideas over the years (probably 75% of my initial drafts?), but it is incredibly satisfying to see them work. Ban Gothitelle

ADV ≅ BW ≅ SS
ADV scares me every time I play, and I think that’s because of Explosion. Making hard reads or hedging correctly around it is very rewarding, as it often nets you a free KO, but opening yourself up to getting 2 important team members boomed is so scary. I would personally have a more fun time playing if boom were banned. People that call it skilless are definitely getting skill issued, it’s just not for me.

Nothing complex to say about BW, the teambuilding just never clicked with me. Thundurus does silly goose things but risk management is a big part of every Pokemon metagame. Probably the most indifferent towards this tier, it’s decent honest Pokemon.

I had a pretty vocal dislike of playing SS but I think I just associate negative memories of my time flopping in the later stages with the metagame. I did extremely poorly in the post-DLC2 SCL I played (going 0-4 and then benched for the lovely zoe) and the tier never clicked for me after we finally destroyed Cringe Sun. Coming back to the tier for old gen invitationals and a Homefield set or two, I had a good time playing it. The pace is often either too fast or too slow for my personal preferences but otherwise it is decent.

A few weeks ago I noted your record (54-17) being close to that of Ezrael in 2017, whose 64-17 stands as the best individual year in Doubles history to date. You said you would just have to win 11 straight, and at the time of writing, you actually managed to win 7 sets straight. Do you feel like you can beat this record, if you care about it at all? Did you realize how good of a year you were having?
I did not. Thank you for keeping the sheets updated. You are a hero your work for the sheet will not be forgotten. I respect Ezrael a metric f*ckton as a player and being in the ballpark of his record is genuinely insane to me. Considering Invitationals are coming up with the hardest bracket in the year, I doubt I’ll actually do 11 straight, but we shall see where the year takes us :D

Edit: i did not do 11 straight. Congrats to DaAwesomeDude1 for winning DPP friendly :D

Besides that impeccable playing record this year, you spent most team tournaments as a co-manager, snagging steals in draft and building unanimously #1 ranked rosters; what are the keys to success when it comes to consistently drafting strong teams?
I am happy to prep and/or steal teams for a lot of different tiers and it is personally important for me to go big on slots I cannot do that in. Top-heavy teams have historically performed pretty well and I tend to go by that philosophy. In DPL, getting Actuarily and DaWob for DUU and BW, two tiers I don’t touch, was pretty stellar for the overall gameplan. I don’t think the rankings mean a ton besides overall beginning motivation and I think a variety of styles can absolutely work, something I’d maybe like to explore in future tours.

6 activity losses, of which 2 came in semifinals. And that's not even considering the two unfinished Draft Leagues (incl. Chirch Draft)......... how and why
Usually something else comes up. I am happy to schedule around high stakes tournaments I’m super invested in but I’m not going to turn down a text hanging out with friends to play Pokemon. Hobbies are cool but so are friends!

Also how: I forgor why: I have ineffective ADHD medication

How do you feel about Doubles' lower tiers, such as DUU and NatDex DOU?
Very happy to see them do well, especially Natdex DOU!!! I was on the council when it started and realized I did not have the energy to split between that and DOU / oldgens play, but I think Smudge and big pichu have been doing a great job. Really appreciate the Coaching suspect that has gone up recently, they’re listening to their engaged players and reacting very quickly. DUU has just never clicked for me for some reason, but big games of this gen have been engaging to spectate, esp invitationals.

Now we're moving on into a fresh metagame, how do you reflect back on post-home SV DOU, its developments through and between OSDT and SCL respectively, and if there's anything you wish you could've seen or changed, e.g. Pokemon with untapped potential, overrated Pokemon, and/or the ramifications of Flutter Mane staying in the tier by 1 vote?
I think tiering-wise we did pretty ok. I really think the double suspect was probably a mistake in retrospect. It was a hedge against a wildly unpopular council vote, but I think we did ok from the options we were given. I am just hoping we don’t have to be in that situation again - council votes for DLC2 went well in terms of optics IMO.

To me, OSDT (playoffs specifically) was exploring the vast array of offensive tools we had access to, and SCL was refining them. I would smack myself for some of the garbage I brought in OSDT but limit-testing Pokemon like Chi-Yu and how greedy you can be with Torn offenses is important for development.

Doubles OU has a really bad habit of sticking to atrocious setup sweepers that can autowin the game given the correct circ*mstances. I think our play and time to dedicate towards teambuilding intricacies would go up significantly if as a community, we somewhat dropped this attachment. Kommo-o being ranked in Tier 2, Palafin still seeing consistent use, the Okidogi devotees, etc. It’s fun! I get it! But these mons suck!!!!!

Flutter Mane ban mostly says to me >40% of the playerbase thought the metagame was in a basically perfect spot. I viewed it mostly as a referendum on that, as it’d be extremely unlikely to get further suspects through if Flutter didn’t. I am ok with that! DLC1 SV was a fun metagame.

What are your expectations and hopes for the new DLC's releases? Can we expect the same kind of activity and performance for you going into a new metagame in 2024?
I am hoping the DLC remains at relatively the same power level after our initial wave of bans. I’m enjoying the tier at the moment and personally don’t want huge shakeups, though I find it hard to believe that the new additions would shake up the tier a ton.

How did you feel about the Doubles Circuit structure in 2023 and the massive increase in side tournaments? What are some tournaments formats (whether official on unofficial) you preferred or would like to see more of, and which could you do without?
Tournaments good. Smogon as a whole has a shockingly low amount of tournament games played compared to other games because we’re scheduling weekly. If people want to play, more tours is good, and I think we haven’t cannibalized other tournament signups for the increase.

Something I did not get to proposing this year was changing DLT to a straight up ladder competition with a lower points payout. I think ladder qualifying -> a standard 16 player elimination bracket is extremely dull and doesn’t reward the laddering part of the ladder tournament enough. DLT has a lot of value to me for bringing in newer players, even if it doesn’t appeal to me as much. Lower points payout would make people feel more OK skipping it and it would appeal more to its core demographic.

From your position as a Doubles councilmember, what are your stances on tiering the new DLC and possibly beyond? Do you have any goals for Doubles to work towards in 2024?
Really glad we aren’t on an insanely rushed schedule now that all of the DLC and home updates are out. We can take some more time to identify suspects, wait for tournament results, run community polls, etc. than we could previously. Tiering-wise, I think we’re doing OK. Main goal as a council member in 2024 is propping up the circuit events and contributing quality content, whether through writeups or streams, for them.

You have also consistently been among the more involved Quality Control team members; as a co-lead, how do you plan on stimulating wider involvement for , if at all? You've been around this section for so long, how do you feel it has changed over the years? Personally, I feel as if it has deprecated somewhat from its glory days; do you share this feeling and can Doubles remedy this?
The glory days happened because talkingtree was the most insane workhorse the section has ever seen. I am trying to keep him away from the section for his own sanity. It is hard to replicate that care in a single person, much less an entire team. We are absolutely doing good work now though, and our team kicks ass.

It’s difficult to encourage people to write at the moment. I’m glad people are much less motivated by badges in 2023 but that was a major draw to the section. I personally feel the format of the smogon dex is a bit prehistoric but struggle to think of strong ways to modernize it myself. My current plan is to spread the word of “writing about your hobbies is very fun and encourages you to think deeper about it, and helping newer players get help is rewarding” - I think any bystander in DOUcord can see this in the #analysis-discussion channel. I think people would be more interested in the current gen with good examples and consistent output to reference and be motivated from, and I’m planning to pick up the pace of the section a lot more.

Known as an extraordinary builder throughout your many active years; what teams would you say are you most proud of, in any tier or during any metagame?
I regrettably delete my teams regularly to keep my

As a mainstay since effectively Doubles's beginnings, how do you feel the community has changed both socially and competitively from years ago. For example, how do today's players match up against e.g. the 2018-19 "Strong Era", or the 2016 VGC takeover?
Socially - my god, we were awful. There were a ton of unique and fun people but their light was constantly being shut out by the edgy xD culture of the time.
Competitively - emforbes and ezrael are still the two best to touch the tier (along with Nails). However, I think we’d put up a much better fight these days - strategy games tend to catch up really quickly with the best. If you look at any of our plays or any of our teams against them, any decent 2023 tournament player these days would just laugh, and they’d be right to. This SCL, we had a ton of new players, and many of them stood up well to the titan of the previous generation, JRL, and the effect would be much more profound if removed another generation.

Does Doubles pale in comparison to VGC?
Just different audiences. Good DOU players succeed in VGC (many DOU players qualified for worlds, ESM recently won a regional!!!) and we obviously have had a ton of great VGC players in our community. Smogon brings a lot of value in its tiering, centralized community, and purely online status, and VGC has a larger player base, TCPI support and more in person connections/tournament hype. Both are cool!

I remember there being so many complaints about our ladder being embarrassingly bad way back then. Though you've never been the most involved ladder player, do you feel like it has improved or become more representative/viable for usage-based tiering since the dark days of XY?
A ton! There are still gimmicky players on the ladder but it’s quite easy to get a top tournament player in 2-3 games. Mostly because Bagel has 20k ladder games this year, but Actuarily and RelicanthPrimal are also on a ton. The ladder is now something I use for genuine practice, which is not something I could’ve said when I joined.

Speaking of 'dark days of XY', we reflected a little bit upon your 2015 interview wherein you mentioned Focus Sash Gengar as 'an amazing support with fast Wisps, Taunt, and Speed Control through Icy Wind, while being a really great switchin to Mega Kangaskhan and Landorus-T'. don't you just f*ckin miss the unbridled creativity and liberating badness of the old days sometimes?
A little bit… but I think the game experience is much more interesting when you have general knowledge of what your opponent’s going to do. I think our creativity is being applied much more specifically to the metagame at hand instead of saying “xd this pokemon has a funny move like Encore.” That is a lot more difficult and I have a lot more respect for it.

I did pull up to Grand Slam semis (?) with Rotom-Mow Terrakion rain. There is a pang of sadness when I realize I will not do something like that again.

I could not find the Grand Slam semis game but enjoy this SPL 7 replay vs Checkmater, both players bringing teams that would absolutely never get brought to a team tournament today​

Is there a chance we'll ever see former Grand Slam top 16 finisher qsns playing singles tiers competitively again? :eyes:
My hopes and dreams were demolished at the time after competitive legend -Tsunami- made a WORST CHOKES OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! video on my NU slam playoffs game. This gen, after trying to build my own NU team, I immediately queued into rabia and aim on an alt and got demolished. No. I am bad and washed and do not need to think more about Pokemon.

What is the best random Pokemon format?
There is nothing better on pokemonshowdown.com than incessantly bugging someone to play BSS Factory [Gen 7]. Incredibly balanced, no DMax, quick enough because it’s 3v3. So good.

Back in 2015 you said 'Litwick' was your favorite Pokemon because it was the first shiny you ever caught. Is it still your favorite Pokemon, or are there more contenders to that title now? Which are your favorite Pokemon to use in a competitive context, in any tiers?
I am still a Litwick fanatic. I have a plushie that sits on my dresser to wake up with me every day :D

I like Pokemon that make me think less so I get to save timer. Flutter Mane is my hero.

This is half a joke answer, but I spent a while thinking about it and I do not have strong likes or dislikes for the vast majority of Pokemon I’m using. I like using what wins. Which means Flutter Mane.

Thinking about having interviewed you in 2015 is kind of insane to me. Some of my earliest Doubles memories come from talking to you about Death Parade on Skype... so much time has passed since then, what would you say are your fondest memories in the Doubles community? And now we're making this trip down memory lane anyway, are there any users or things you miss from back then?
So f*cking strange we’ve been around this long. I always say “I’ve been around for too long” but when you bring that up, another wave of memories hits me entirely.

PS! Room used to be a lot more active and it was just such a pleasure to dick around with everyone in there. Chat was always active, could talk for hours and get everyone in your ladder game where you’re beating x tournament player up with Spiritomb Litwick Claydol. Definitely a combination of different PS rules and the rise of our Discord that would prevent us from doing the same but there is something uniquely nostalgic about those times.

Community’s entirely different and I think that’s mostly been for the better. DOU used to be an extremely toxic place where you’d get flamed by Stratos for a single misplay for months on end, much less the casual (and non-casual) bigotry we let slide. I think we’re a lot more welcoming now and I appreciate that a lot.

Thankfully we always still have Croven, who together with you makes for arguably the most iconic collaborative efforts in the community. How did this working relationship come to be, and how have you two always managed to stay so successful throughout the years? Seeing as Croven is semi-retired nowadays, has bage1 become the new protégé?
Croven’s just a phenomenal, no-nonsense player and I like building for my friends. I appreciate that he’s able to pilot any style of teams and that lets me pass him whatever I happened to be feeling that week. I don’t think there’s a secret sauce, playing Pokemon with him is just fun.

Bagel actually builds his own f*cking teams unlike Croven

Can you tell us about the evolution of your collaborative history with Croven, which is more in the form of playing Nuzlocke romhacks and ghosting on Slay the Spire? What have been your favorite romhack Nuzlocke experiences? What is your favorite character to play in Slay the Spire?
Croven and I both got sick of competitive Pokemon, him before me. I am not that great at Nuzlockes and the meticulous planning you need to beat the hardest ROM hacks (emerald kaizo, radical red (not that good of a game), run and bun) but I will always enjoy Croven sharing the 20-page planning doc with me for an E4 run. We also play a lot of spire and there’s nothing better than getting drafted for a team tour, inviting croven and immediately demanding the STS chat so we don’t derail prep.

I adore the Ironclad in STS. I think all of Clad/Silent/Defect are all wonderfully designed, but the Clad’s play patterns appeal the most to me. You have strong basic cards towards the beginning of your run, letting you path aggressively for the random chance of “i win” cards and relics, and somehow have to piece together a pile of energy-cheating garbage or infinite combo that raggedly climbs over the finish line. I have about a 55% winrate over my last 50 games with Clad, which is solid, but pales in comparison to god Croven’s recent 10 win Silent streak.

Your success in strategy games extends beyond Pokemon and Slay the Spire; you've also proven a consistently worldwide top player in Hearthstone and Teamfight Tactics. Is there a unifying skill that makes you so successful at strategy games? What goes through that noggin of yours?
A lot of time. If you jam hundreds or at this point, thousands of games, you recognize the patterns a lot quicker. I have a few other hobbies but am happy to just spend a month on a game and think of little else in my free time. My noggin is empty

When I asked you about your music taste in 2015 you answered with "I like rock"; do you have a Topster to show the evolution of your taste since then?
I don’t know if I actually listened to music in 2015

Happy to talk music anytime!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love music now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love you Phoebe Bridgers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you still claim being a weeb?
Definitely less so nowadays. I usually just join in whatever my partner’s watching these days. They’ve been getting me into a lot more Japanese rock music if that counts (big tricot fan).

If you could add one emoji or sticker to DOUcord, what would it be?
I don’t think homurakms would be appropriate but I feel like I really need it in discussion sometimes. we need a hampster sticker

What are your favorite Chirch memes?
any croven edits and any drunk posting. please post your favorites may or in the COMMENT SECTION SBELOW

With 2023 wrapping up soon, how do you look back on your year? What do you think has been your best moment, either personally or Pokemon-related? (whichever you find more comfortable)
Personally, I’m a lot more comfortable with myself. I’ve definitely had some more tangible things happen, progress in my life etc., but I’m noticeably more reflective and honest with myself. It opens up a lot of options for bettering myself in the future and it’s both very terrifying and motivating.

Pokemon-wise, I’m insanely proud of my SCL performance. I have always been a sh*tter on the master sheet and I was quite annoyed with how a lot of people saw me - consistently OK. They weren’t wrong to think that at all!!!!!! My performances were quite mediocre and I was carried on the bench, and then going 5-6 (?) into two SPL trophies. Just happy to break out of that for a season.

Who would you like to see get interviewed next?
I have made it clear I’m a huge bage1 fan. Would also like to see Xrn, I think he was under everyone’s radar before SCL (including mine) and would love to see the Incredible Mind behind a 9-1 performance. Lunar. too if he’s not done with DOU o7

Do you have any concluding words for this interview? Worry not, if you forget something there's always a chance at another interview 8 years from now :')
Thank you so much for putting this together May, I really admire your work ethic and care for this community, and answering these questions was a joy. See you in 2031 :,)
