Moscow qualifier.

Peter, to be honest, the organizers have practically resolved the version issue – TE-Lite. In essence, it's neither ours nor theirs – neither SoD nor TE. But there's no other way to hold a joint tournament; everyone has to make some concessions.

Nagan, let the players decide, not just one or two people, which template and version to use.
Right now, I see three people in favor of TE and 8mm, and three in favor of SoD and CM (Vitalik, Keba, Pit) – and those who are in favor of SoD are active, constantly playing players. In my opinion, why bring out old dinosaurs from dusty closets? They're unlikely to remember how to move the knights :)
Let everyone who wants to play in Moscow get together and decide for themselves. Otherwise, "the organizers have decided everything for you" – in my opinion, that's not democratic :)
By the way, many people from Ukraine told me the same thing about the Michurinsky qualifier – they said that in Russia, there's a dictatorship and a cult of personality :) – but in Ukraine, we discussed everything together. It's like, more democratic. And not a single player had even a drop of unpleasant feelings after the meeting in Kyiv :)

P.S. Besides, as we can see from the discussions, TE-Lite has a lot of bugs, and there are still too many differences... there might be arguments later :(
