God knows, I didn't want this, but I had to.
An open letter to the tournament organizer Oxygen, and judges LordZezuk and DJN (a copy has been sent via email).
Good day, esteemed judges and tournament organizer. The background to my request is as follows:
August 28, 2009. On the day the tournament began, I, as a host player, agreed with my opponent (Lord Nadicus).
August 29, 2009. We played for about a week. We postponed the game at the opponent's request. The opponent was very upset that he was doing much worse in the game. Judge STRANNIK contacted me and asked how our game was going.
August 30 - September 1, 2009. The opponent avoided continuing the game in every way, citing, in my opinion, disrespectful reasons (football, he was tired, because he had been playing Heroes with another player for 5 hours before me, etc.).
September 1, 2009. Since, according to the rules, the host is responsible for the game, I informed Judge STRANNIK about all of this. I don't know what he said to my opponent, but the latter specifically attacked me. It was difficult (I don't know English well and I don't know French at all) to agree on a time for tomorrow....
September 2, 2009. We played for another two weeks. We postponed the game at the opponent's request.
September 3, 2009. We continued for the third time. I managed to break through to him, captured a city (the opponent didn't even approach it), collected everything, including artifacts. Then I broke through the guard and reached the valuable artifact - the Book of Nature (next to the Tree of Knowledge). There were 4 angels and 10 crusaders of the opponent standing nearby, without heroes. I easily killed them and took the book. Then the opponent attacked me again, called me a cheater, and left the game without warning. He had no more than 0 chance in this game. I immediately reported this incident to Judge STRANNIK, fortunately, he was online. We agreed that he would find out what was wrong with the opponent and whether he would continue.
September 4-5, 2009. There is no news from the judge or the opponent.
September 6, 2009. I ask Judge STRANNIK what happened in the conversation with the opponent. Answer: he promised to play.
September 7-9, 2009. The opponent does not contact me. However, my potential opponent in the second round, Vladimir, contacted me. We agreed that I would write to him as soon as they give me a victory, possibly a technical one.
September 10, 2009. I ask Judge STRANNIK what happened to the opponent. Answer: he promised to play.
September 11-14, 2009. Neither the opponent nor Judge STRANNIK contact me, although I knocked on the latter's door every day, both "offline" and "online," and even in the "away" status, but there was no response!
September 15, 2009. Judge STRANNIK contacted me himself and requested the game saves, ignoring my questions about where the opponent was and threatening me with a technical defeat.
September 17, 2009. Judge STRANNIK is not answering again, although he has been online for more than an hour. I still don't know what happened to the opponent and why he is not contacting me. And today (tomorrow?) the first round of the Championship ends. And my opponent in the second round, Vladimir, is already waiting, which puts me in an awkward position.
At the same time, on the French website (http://www.archangelcastle.com/), reports about the opponent's and the judge's games were found:
CTPAHHuK - Lord Nadicus 11.09
mr_camembert - Lord Nadicus 12.09
Lord Nadicus - Astrorara 13.09
joseywales - Lord Nadicus 14.09
pacobac - Lord Nadicus 17.09
Thus, the following conclusions can be drawn:
1. The opponent deliberately and without valid reasons avoided playing.
2. Judge STRANNIK is aware of the reasons for the opponent's avoidance, but unreasonably concealed this from me, which suggests his bias.
In this regard, I demand:
1. That a technical defeat be awarded to my opponent for avoiding the game.
2. An official apology for ignoring my requests from an official of the tournament.
3. That STRANNIK be removed from judging and organizational duties.
4. That a new judge from Russia be selected, for example, Zybr, as a very polite and responsive person, or Lee, as someone who understands Heroes very well.
