I reviewed the thread about the tournament. I want you to understand that my questions were not meant as criticism, but rather reflect what everyone would immediately want to know and what organizers usually state when announcing a tournament.
Now, some specific questions:
What are the remaining rules that haven't been listed here (most importantly: what is prohibited and what is allowed)? I provided a link to the page with tournament rules here and on HP – which version will you use?
What about using the HD mod? Is it permissible to use HD+ mode? Can we use the SOD_SP plugin? If so, which version and with which options (there are already around 20 of them)?
Is the map for the tournament ready? Has anyone checked it and confirmed that there are no errors? What about random factors – have they been minimized? Could the appearance of neutrals at the beginning of the week in an unsuitable location create problems?

Thank you very much for your questions.
In order:
1. We will use the local rules, i.e., those of this forum. On other portals, I will inform all players about them.
2. The HD mod is allowed. But we won't use HD+.
3. SOD_SP is also not used because it has many factors that make the game easier. Since players from other sources may be unfamiliar with these things, it would not provide completely equal conditions in terms of skill in using plugins.
4. The map is ready and has been fully tested by more than just me. Neutrals will absolutely not interfere. There will be no random factors; I have worked through everything down to the smallest detail, and everything that could put people on unequal footing has been removed.

ATTENTION EVERYONE!!!

There is a small change to the process.
After discussing the tournament on HP, we came to the conclusion that all heroes of all participants will be available for selection by any player after the first round, including their own. If you believe that someone else's hero is better suited for the next level, then you are free to choose him, but 2 points will be deducted from you!
