If you'll allow, I'd also like to share my opinion in light of the current situation.
1. Despite my respect for you, Alex_R, you violated the rules, and the fact that you didn't read them immediately before the tournament doesn't exempt you from responsibility, and you know that perfectly well.
2. If I were in Alex_R's position, I would have forgotten about this incident long ago and tried my best to "sweep it under the rug" with the opponent, and also tried to negotiate with the organizer to participate in the tournament, and if they accept me back (for an online game), I would prove my skill through gameplay!
3. Invisible, you are an excellent player, a restrained forum user, and I think a wonderful opponent in the game. You behave with dignity and act within the rules, which speaks to your sound judgment, ability to behave, and communication skills – in short, a true hero!
4. The rules are the same for everyone, and there will be no exceptions!
Sincerely, VDV_forever
