Allow me to defend Scar for a moment.
When he has said the following, that does not mean that he is declaring your victory as illegitimate.
Furthermore, I know Scar. I've known him for a year. So, unless you have clear evidence that he is some "old, creepy guy", it is wrong that you have made that charge against him. By that you are slandering him, and that is morally reprehensible.
With that, please enjoy your victory. You have earned it.
