I meant to post this on the Doubles Tournament thread, but since we have a thread exclusively here now (and I know that Matt will probably check it, even though he probably won't respond...)
I don't think people are giving you a hard time for putting your college responsibilities over 40K, but the fact that you had the gall to post a challenge on this forum, and then not even so much as communicate to your opponents that you wouldn't play them, when your challenge was accepted, makes most of what they're saying justified.
Furthermore, IIRC, I was one of the only few people, if not the only person, who went to bat for you on your thread, when no one else seemed to even so much as give you the benefit of the doubt. If anyone has any right to be put off with you (besides Troy and anyone else who accepted your challenge), it's me.
So excuse me if I find your integrity to be lacking, if not at least questionable.
