Well, you rushed with publishing the description. It's not enough to just provide a ready-made answer; you need to try to teach people to think (which is what I was trying to do by asking them to take a small test). By the way, this test was one of the easiest I've given on this map.
Well, never mind, I don't mind, but analyzing the results table, I unfortunately came to the conclusion that most people didn't take the Tournament seriously :-( (just the analysis of the amount of mercury will tell you a lot, just think about it)
By the way, on the "Hero's Corner" about 1.5 weeks after the release, a description of a Walkthrough for this map appeared, taking 4 weeks (it seems it's still there)
The brain is the scariest cheat; I always use it.

Well, I wouldn't rush so much; the results are preliminary.

I noticed about the mercury, of course:) Many people didn't convert all their resources into mercury; they probably forgot...:)
