First off, Rogean and Nilbog have never said they're "100% team competition". Rogean is pretty big on "competition" yes, but Nilbog was talking about implementing instances for Pete's sake: that's like the polar opposite of competition (and Rogean did not explicitly shoot the idea down either).

So, I owe GM Nilbog a sincere apology here. When I wrote that he had been "talking about implementing instances" I was referring to the conversation in Braknar's logs a few months back.
I recently reviewed that conversation and realized I had misunderstood what Nilbog said in it. While he did
talk about instances as a solution other devs had used, and he did talk about specifically implementing a non-classic solution for ToV, in hindsight it's clear that he was referring to something like rooted dragons, not instances.
Talking about someone's private conversations that have been exposed without their permission is already a bit sketchy, but misinterpreting them to claim someone said something they didn't is even worse, so I truly apologize for misremembering/misunderstanding that conversation and falsely claiming that Nilbog considered instances as an option (when again, if you re-read the conversation, the instance stuff was coming more from Sirken and Nilbog
never explicitly said it was an option).
Apologies GM Nilbog!
I still stand by my viewpoint, and I'll hold it regardless of whether Rogean and Nilbog agree with me ... but I never meant to misrepresent Nilbog in any way, and certainly not to paint him as being for instances when he never was.
