Appeals Committee. Disputed situations in tournaments.

I'm surprised that such an experienced player as Vitaly couldn't understand (or didn't want to:confused:) a simple, buggy passage. In any controversial cases, the player should stop the game and write to the judges.

I'm not a very experienced player, and the boundary indicated by Reddy in the screenshot isn't obvious to me.
Once the path was discovered, that's a different matter. Here, the game should have been stopped, an explanation given that due to the buggy passage, the player ended up in another respawn area, and a decision made with the opponent whether they continue the game or leave the decision to the judges.
In my opinion, after the path is discovered, the game should continue without further exploration and returning to their own zone.
As for the piles of gold raised in the opponent's zone after the path is discovered, that is a violation of the rules.
