Hal's private dread of a public "demapping" by John Wayne

timeline_event

texture · YDAU, ~Nov (pre-Fundraiser)

When: YDAU (2009), ahead of the November Fundraiser exhibitions
What: "Hal's private dread is that Tavis will want him to offer up his personal competitive map and dignity to John ('N.R.') Wayne — who's never in several matches lost more than three games in a set to Hal — for the titillation of the alumni and patrons" at the Fundraiser. Documents the one player clearly above Hal (Wayne) and Hal's fear of ritual public humiliation (a "demapping"), sharpening the care-too-much profile.
