1. Holy wars are sacred. (This is just a joke, a play on words, but it's about 80% true). 2. Demanding that "all scheduled games be played according to the rules," Vicc, with all due respect (I sincerely believe that the first Game of Thrones was the best hero tournament I've ever played), you're asking too much. Not one, not two, but several people have expressed their strong disagreement with the rules you come up with, with the templates you choose... never mind the timers (actually, never mind that too :D). You don't want to listen (in the vast majority of cases). And if there's a mutual agreement between players, demanding total obedience is unnecessary. It's even very surprising to see such a rigid demand from you, when in other situations you carefully maneuver between the reefs of public opinion. 3. "Communicate respectfully with opponents and the host." Firstly, there are forum rules and common sense to assess "respectful" behavior. And in practice, these are debatable points that even moderators interpret differently. And certainly, these rules and common sense do not dictate that someone should be denied participation in a tournament because of "disrespectful" behavior. If that were the case, GUNAR (in his current state) wouldn't play in tournaments on HW at all. But he does. And FTS is an angel compared to him. Secondly, (I'm trying to guess), if the problem is with the template being bad, then a skilled player has the right to call things by their name (in general, any player has this right, it's just that unskilled players rarely manage to say something truly meaningful). It's wrong to get offended right away, and even more so (as in this case) to wield the banhammer; you can try to understand what people are actually talking about, especially since this is already the umpteenth time. In my opinion, if there is any sticking point, it is precisely here.
