To avoid any misunderstandings, I'll explain how it looked from my perspective:
When the draw took place, Al Feyn immediately requested an ODD (Over-the-board Duel), and I scheduled two dates (Tuesday and Wednesday).
On Tuesday, freesha arrived, and they played a full match.
On Wednesday, freesha wrote to both me and his opponent, saying that he had an urgent work commitment and was unlikely to be able to make it to the scheduled time. In the end, he couldn't make it.
I decided that awarding a technical loss in this situation wouldn't be fair, and I suggested that the players agree on another ODD, as the tournament had just started, and there were still 3 weeks left. Both players had also demonstrated a willingness to negotiate ODDs in previous tournaments (at least in the episodes when ODDs were scheduled through me).
Al Feyn disagreed with this decision and withdrew from the tournament.
