Mee: "The start date of our qualifying tournament is approximately the end of January 2010. Those who wish to come to our qualifying tournament from neighboring cities/regions/oblasts/countries are welcome..."

Forecast: so far, only 4 people have registered. There is still plenty of time until the end of January. But the current tournament in Yekaterinburg is stalling, and the reports are not being updated – maybe it would be better to hold one tournament instead of two (finish the one that has already started) – and the winners will get the right to play in the final?
I apologize in advance to the respected Mee for interfering in matters that are not my concern.

To summarize. Two qualifying tournaments will definitely take place, and two more – only if the organizers make an effort.

In my opinion, this is not a forecast, but an expression of wishes. I think the problem is that the respected Nagan clearly favors those who have been playing Heroes for a long time, and he is not very interested in people who have only recently become actively involved in the Heroes community. Otherwise, I don't understand how the main initiator of the entire planned series of qualifying tournaments can allow himself to suggest canceling a full-fledged qualifying tournament by proposing "to finish the previous local tournament and take finalists from there"? This is like, for example, if in the semi-finals of the World Cup, teams from the same group ended up, and in order to save time, the result of the group game would be counted. If people with names that are significant to Nagan, such as Yama or Stinger, lived in Yekaterinburg, I am sure Nagan would be the first to insist on a full-fledged qualifying tournament in that city!
Almost all tournaments on 1fall ended logically and fairly; it's a pity that the respected Nagan didn't follow the history. Yes, one, the last tournament, was not finished due to the busyness of some people, but I am sure that many people will respond to the selection for the final of the entire Heroes world, much more than before. And the motivation for the players to play in such a tournament will be completely different! Mee, Asm, fh, Mortifer, LeBron, Alone, Merlin, and others – I am more than sure that they will want to play in a full-fledged qualifying tournament. I am going to visit them. In general, I am sure that the qualifying tournament in Yekaterinburg will take place!
Nagan, why aren't you saying anything about the Belarusians?
