Appeals Committee. Disputed situations in tournaments.
I'd like to share my opinion... I don't think it's fair to accuse Pete or others of bias. It's just that the judging isn't at the highest level yet, and there are many unclear situations that judges sometimes don't have the time, desire, or patience to sort out. But Alex_R is also right in his own way; some people would have stayed silent, but he didn't. For example, in my case, I didn't manage to sign up for the tournament (or rather, I couldn't play for a couple of months due to family matters), but when more than half of the tournament had already passed, Pete still accepted me, without promising anything. We started playing... With the kind agreement of A.S., we started playing against him instead of his opponent who had withdrawn. We played for a week on Jebus, and it took several hours. Then, either a session or other problems (internet, unwillingness to play, or something else) prevented A.S. from finishing the game. For example, I don't think it was right to give Tech Win to A.S. since the game didn't take place. But why did I even start that game in the first place? I don't see the point... and why should I look for him and ask him to play? The situation is ambiguous here. I would have had 4 points, just like:
21__numOne________________4.0__29.0_ _______30__Mizrael _______________4.0__29.0_ ________6__Pit_for_LM ___________4.0__28.5_ _______10__Erdem _______________4.0__27.5_ _______22__SEM_56_______________4.0__22.5
True, I later had to play against A.S. again, and he withdrew from the tournament, and I got a Tech Win there too, but if things had been different from the start, I would have played against another player. As they say, I didn't make any demands, since they accepted me anyway after 4 rounds had passed. But if they already accepted me, then the rules should be the same for me as for everyone else, and the rights too. It would have been possible to schedule some additional games or something else. I'm not claiming anything; it's just an example that not everything is perfect with us. And every player has the same rights. And there's no need to say that one person is good because they stayed silent, and another is bad because they didn't.

Мы выступаем не за трофеев Ведёт нас вперёд великая вера Если погибнуть за землю родную Не побоиться тут каждый быть первым.
