TOURNAMENT TROUBLES!

I disagree, there could be problems:
Since any portal user can host an unofficial tournament, and in unlimited quantities, the following situation is possible:
A player creates several tournaments at once (let's say 10).
And immediately gets reprimanded by the administration. An official organizer can create 2-3 tournaments, for example, while unofficial organizers are prohibited from creating more than one tournament at a time. The clan affiliation of unofficial player-creators can also be tracked. AmberSoler perfectly described the other aspects of this problem.

By the way, a question for IronAxe: how will he update the rating in such a situation? For each tournament held? Yes? Then this player and team will always be at the top of the rating table.
At the same time, they may not even play in official tournaments, because they will easily accumulate a high rating from their own tournaments.
I've already said that the rating in an alternative system will be updated as follows. A day is chosen when the rating for each version of the Heroes game is updated for ALL players. The universal rating will also be updated. It is clear that the player who has played more games and has a higher rating will retain a higher rating. However, players with a high rating will lose more during the update, while players with a lower rating will lose less. To put it mildly, a player with a rating of 100 will retain 50 points after the update, which is 50% of their original rating. A player with a rating of 2 will retain 1 point. With this action, I am trying to prevent the leaders from pulling away indefinitely from the outsiders, so that everyone has a chance to catch up.
But if we talk about the fact that the more games a player plays, the higher their rating may be, this is also true in other systems. I'll explain: tournaments in Heroes 3. Only official players play, and we only count the rating for them (as you suggest). So, after 10 tournaments, there will easily be a difference among the players in how many games they have played - some will play all 10, some 7, some 1 (a beginner), and some 0 (just came to the forum). Which of these players will have a better chance of having a higher rating? We will calculate it based on the average per number of games :) A player with one game and 100 points will beat everyone :)
And what will change if we also count the rating for unofficial players with a quorum? My system can handle this problem as well, even if not perfectly :)

How so? That's exactly what we're talking about... :D
Well, your position is clear.
But I still hold a different opinion.
I think we should wait to see what VDV_forever has to say about this.
Whatever he says, it's already clear from the discussion that only two people have spoken out against not counting the rating for unofficial tournaments with a quorum. The majority currently say they are FOR it. AlexPank has already calculated the rating. It is better to find out the opinion of other official organizers, for example, Alana and whoever else.
