Rules for Heroes of Might and Magic III online tournaments on HeroesWorld.
Let me explain once more why I wrote these Rules in the first place.Wicc
Various commissions and hierarchies are forcing a situation where there are many generals, but few soldiers.
At the moment, the situation is as follows. I am a soldier, and there are many like me. Yes, we came here to fight: first simply to find opponents in our favorite game, then to see ourselves move up a line in the ratings, then to try our strength in Tournaments. Unfortunately, our tournaments are not being run very well; there are many problems. Our generals (there are few of them now), i.e., people marked by official authority, hardly play online; they are overloaded in real life, and moderation on the forum alone requires a huge amount of time. Therefore, the wishes of the players are somewhat unclear to them. How many abandoned tournaments? How often are deadlines missed due to the fault of the organizers rather than the players? I highly respect the work of the organizers and moderators. And everything I am proposing is not to offend them, but to help them and create more comfortable living conditions for the players. Conventionally, so that some of the soldiers could take on the authority of sergeants and be responsible for a small section of the work. (You know perfectly well how many problems most newcomers have when trying to register on bay. In the summer of 2008, I waited a month for an email from some Balamut, writing to him repeatedly everywhere. I only succeeded thanks to Javdet's advice to contact some Vic, who was unknown to me. Are such things beneficial for the forum? Yet writing a registration algorithm is a 10-min job. And all questions would be resolved. Maybe it's already been done, I haven't looked in a long time. Is Armageddon dealing with this now?)Wicc
Honestly, I don't see any problems now for which the will of some player, followed by a decision based on the veche principle, would be insufficient.
Well, I have expressed my will regarding the general problems I see, proposed a solution, and the veche seems to actively support it. In my opinion, problems that can be solved once should not be raised in every tournament.Wicc
Moreover, introducing aristocratic orders into a collective with a democratic atmosphere means forcing either aggressive opposition or quiet sabotage of them (certainly from my side).
Democracy is not anarchy. If an organizer does not want to or cannot bring a tournament to a conclusion—that is their right. But in the interests of the players, there must be a possibility to replace the organizer and finish what was started. I don't understand what you intend to sabotage? Planning the tournament schedule? I think you wrote yourself that tournaments should be held sequentially—I don't feel like combing through the forum for quotes. And that there are too many tournaments running simultaneously. Professional seeding? Does someone actually like errors in seeding? The resolution of disputed situations by some commission? I understand that the qualification of our players is lower than yours. But here, we make do with what we have. Our forum is young; we will learn. And no one will refuse your advice. You possess a great deal of authority here. But agree, if you yourself end up in a disputed situation, you cannot solve it by your personal authority alone without official regulated assistance.Wicc
That is, it may be unobvious to an ordinary player what a member of some commission is doing here, and what right they have to interfere in their affairs. To them, only the hierarchy of judge->player is obvious, in which, among other things, the player can vote with their feet. I don't see a spectrum of duties for which any commission is needed.
Is it unobvious to the ordinary player what Dirty_Player does? And what right does he have to perform the seeding? The right—professionalism. If someone can do it better—let them offer themselves; the help will be gladly accepted. In general, an ordinary player is unlikely to ask such questions. I recall you asked for a medal under your avatar recently? And Dubrovin waited a long time, and I had to remind them... But I would like such events to happen without reminders and requests. What difference does it make what you call it—a commission or a good person? Please, you can write: "And this good person does our seeding." Right now, three people are carrying the entire spectrum. Moderation, tournaments, and disputed situations. They do it voluntarily and for free. Not always successfully. It's hard for them, and the general atmosphere of the forum is not very good. These rules are an offer of help from the players.Wicc
Self-organization or attracting another lead from the outside. If players want to finish the game, they will do it anyway.
No, again, I don't want to spend time searching for exact links. There are examples, and not only here, but on HP and on bay. And who will attract them? Judging, cheating—I agree, these are very complex points. I repeat, yes, our qualification is lower than we would like; we haven't grown our own fathers and monsters yet. Our combat experience is small. We will learn, ask for consultations. BUT for this, we don't need foreign authorities who, for the most part, are indifferent to our affairs, but specifically our own, native players, interested in that atmosphere of friendship, trust, and mutual understanding that we are proud of.
