I'm not trying to discount the critique, I'm just trying to say that I understand the critique on the intonation, but I don't want it to be the only point of discussion.
Sorry. I'm not trying to be pedantic. But it's such an important point, which if you take it, could help you bring your playing to a new level. The critique isn't about your intonation:

I hadn't realized this time and then didn't really notice it because I was focused on the piece itself.
It's this statement here. You aren't entirely aware of what needs improving--that is, there's a disconnect between the way you perceive things in the moment of performance and the way we, an audience, perceive them (and as far as Liqourice and myself go, I believe our perceptions are much closer to reality).
Were you aware, for example, of all the moments you altered Debussy's notated rhythms? Were you aware of all the spots you didn't adhere to the written dynamic or expressive markings?
Online or even in-person critiques aren't going to help you unless you become aware of these things. It's the first step toward improving your clarinet playing. I'll stop repeating myself now! Best of luck!
