[ТУРНИР-HotA] Hard Choice

Hosenk is trying to solve the classic (and correct) problem of the "favorites" – allowing players to play longer with their favorite faction, despite losing in the early games (here, everyone will play at least 4 games). And at the same time, solve the problem of meaningless games that no longer have any impact in a competitive sense (here, there will be no meaningless games at all – if you're playing a match, it means you still have a chance to win the tournament).

I fully agree. With this regulation, there are no meaningless games.
The only problem might be removing someone from the tournament and having "free wins" in the playoffs, but these are minor issues.
And if there are more than 32 participants in the tournament, you can create groups of 5-6 people.

It would be good to immediately specify in the regulations who is higher in the table in case of a tie in points (head-to-head, personal meeting, and something else (yellow cards:smile08:), as there may be situations with a tie in points among 3 players.
