I hate it here, I refuse to leave

It's been amazing to see the community rally around Kowakujō and its Main Quest over the past few days. The team is incredibly proud of this map, and proud of the members of this community who participate in every hunt with passion and integrity.

After a race that lasted nearly 60 hours, we were beyond disappointed to see a significant portion of the quest spoiled by bad actors and the people who amplified them.

There are still more secrets to discover, and we'll do everything possible to protect the experience for next season's finale. Try to stay spoiler-free out there. ♥️

Full letter to Sorsby:

Dear Mr. Sorsby:

We are in receipt of your Petition for Special Eligibility, dated June 16, 2026 (“Petition”).  As announced earlier today, the League has elected not to conduct a Supplemental Draft this year.

Under our Collective Bargaining Agreement, the League retains sole discretion to determine whether it is appropriate to conduct a Supplemental Draft in any given year. The League has not conducted such a draft for several years and, prior to your submission, the League had no plans to do so this year, as no other player has sought entry. Your Petition—filed three business days before the deadline, without any supporting information or documentation, and only after abandoning your recent litigation efforts to avoid NCAA sanctions—does not provide a basis for the League to alter those plans. The issues presented by your Petition are too significant, and too closely tied to the League’s core integrity interests, to permit meaningful review within the timeline presented.

The sole reasons identified in your Petition for seeking entry into the Supplemental Draft are that you have been “declared ineligible” by the NCAA, have “exhausted all of [your] avenues to continue in the NCAA,” and “want to now play in the NFL.” The Petition provides no information regarding the basis for, or timing of, the NCAA’s decision. Public sources, however, indicate that in May 2026 the NCAA issued a determination declaring you permanently ineligible from participation in college athletics, based on a sustained pattern of improper gambling activity during your collegiate career at three different universities.

The League does not have the complete record of the NCAA’s investigation, and you did not provide any such materials with your Petition. Available information nonetheless indicates that, over the course of your collegiate career, you knowingly engaged in repeated and significant violations of NCAA rules designed to preserve the integrity of athletic competition. Reported conduct includes placing wagers on your own team and teammates and, to avoid detection, establishing or funding accounts in the names of intermediaries who placed bets on your behalf. There are also reports that you may have violated state criminal law.

Your Petition does not address these matters. Nor does it demonstrate accountability for your conduct or indicate whether, or how, you would adhere to the League’s rules and policies governing the integrity of competition. Instead, even after receiving notice of the NCAA’s decision rescinding your college eligibility in May, you sought to avoid the consequences of that determination through litigation rather than accepting responsibility for your actions, and you pursued entry into the NFL only after abandoning those efforts.

As Commissioner Goodell has emphasized, participation in the NFL is a privilege that carries with it significant responsibilities, including accountability. By all accounts, you are a talented player with the potential for future success. We encourage you to focus on preparing for possible entry into the NFL through the 2027 NFL Annual Draft.

Sincerely,
Lawrence P. Ferazani, Jr.

@RonDeSantis We could just not have statues of people that committed heinous atrocities against the natives when he “discovered” America

[Aaron Smith @im_AaronSmith]

@timburchett Which statues exactly were the ones torn down?

@NicholasBarnard @johnrich @BurgessOwens @TPUSA Pronouns? You mean like the basic building blocks for English. Tell me, how do you refer to someone that you’re talking about? Do you use their name every sentence and break up the flow of how you’re talking? Or do you refer to people as he/she/they when speaking?

@Notwokenow No cultures are compatible if nobody tries

[Aaron Smith @im_AaronSmith]

@NicholasBarnard @johnrich @BurgessOwens @TPUSA Before I answer. What relevance does this have to my prior point. I did t say anything about the science behind anything

[Aaron Smith @im_AaronSmith]

@NicholasBarnard @johnrich @BurgessOwens @TPUSA Yes?

[Aaron Smith @im_AaronSmith]

@NicholasBarnard @johnrich @BurgessOwens @TPUSA First, everyone has pronouns. That’s basic English. Second, saying “trans people don’t deserve to be treated like shit” isn’t an ideology. Lastly, nobody is importing illegals. I will gladly walk back any of my points if you can find a single fact checked argument disproving them

@DC_Draino A civil rights lawyer who doesn’t know the constitution from the declaration of Independence is definitely significant

@ThePatriotOasis That’s cool. But Epstein files when?

[Aaron Smith @im_AaronSmith]

@NicholasBarnard @johnrich @BurgessOwens @TPUSA You’re right. I love having the freedom to critique my country and the people running it. However we live in a time when people are so blinded by party loyalty the can’t take a step back and realize “hey, maybe all this has gone too far”
