Re: some commentPersonally I know this 前辈乙级棋手 well and I respect him greatly. He has selflessly sent me many valuable materials on Xiangqi and helped me a lot in many other ways. I believe he is modest and kindhearted. I have great confidence in his character and believe that he has never insulted me by trying to assist and encourage me. He only meant to encourage me to continue playing. I never mean to accept his "insult" because I believe that there is no insult at all. I apologize for what I have done wrongly and would like to protect his reputation, not my own, by all means. It seems a good choice to hide his name to avoid some unnecessary misunderstanding about him.
I really appreciate your comment. It shows your concern about me; thank you.
I agree that I should have continued to play in the competition
I agree with you that I should have continued to play in the competition, even if I was not in a suitable morale and there was a time conflict between the competition and my Bible study (which is, of course no one's but my own fault). It all about sportsmanship and I value it a lot.
