But as of now I'm having a hard to time to see how I'm in the wrong. Maybe I'm just blind, and if I am; enlighten me.

I don't think Destroyer was calling you out. He was saying that it seemed suspect that he wrote about the picture, directly, and even then people justified their vote by saying he didn't use the picture well enough- when Innovator didn't follow the picture as much to a T

Then he quoted punctuation as another ridiculous thing to be voted against for (which in this case I'd agree it shouldn't be a determining factor in this particular battle, but you might've just been providing feedback)

Basically he's saying people aren't justifying votes sufficiently and obviously as someone who doesn't compete in topicals, it's frustrating to not be told the details of why you caught a loss, because how else can you get better?

You just got caught in the crossfire
