Leo, nothing ruins your reputation; there's such a thing as rules. I had my first submission on the Portal, but I didn't manage to send the save file in time and lost the fief. I didn't think badly of the organizer. He followed all the rules. So why are you portraying me as some kind of bad guy in front of everyone?
I personally believe that we should follow the traditions of our resource and, in such cases, accept the submission.
I didn't want to interfere, but just for your information:
We've had several cases where, for technical or personal reasons, a participant couldn't send the finished save file on time (I personally remember 3 such cases).
All three times, the issue was resolved in favor of the participant... the organizer and other participants didn't object; the only thing required was a letter describing the final battle (since the other Heroes 1-4 games don't have a battle recording function), as well as the exact result: day/parameters/mercury...
...However, there have also been cases, not involving sending the final save file, and not only in offline games, where people clung to the rules as if they were a lifeline, and they didn't even hide it...
P.S. We can argue for a long time about how to proceed: according to the rules?
Or in a humane way?
(by the way, a guild system, as well as systems like arrow systems, etc., will tend to favor the first option)
