Dear participants! Don't rush to send in your save files! For example, I'm already losing interest because I know that some people have submitted far from optimal playthroughs (as they themselves say). Is it really interesting to compare your result with a mediocre one (or something like that)? I understand that you want to quickly "get rid of this burden." It always seems that your current result is the best, and that you can't do any better. I assure you, this is not the case. Almost always, the result can be improved, thereby increasing the competition.
There is a simple solution: don't limit the number of save files submitted. What difference does it make if they just sit there until needed? Only the last submitted one counts. I don't understand the organizers' position, especially that of the respected VDV_forever, who, although he wants to improve his result, can't do so because of the rule of only one save file. So the question is: will the winner really win, or will he just play better than his opponents in a rough draft playthrough?
If I have time, I will participate too. I looked at the map today and skimmed through it: it's quite tedious, to be honest.
