I read the discussion very late (because I finished the games earlier than everyone else and am just taking a break from the tournament games – to be honest, I didn’t expect it to take so much energy).
And I’m very glad that RTA wasn’t chosen (if I understand correctly, this is the so-called “Tactics,” which is so popular in the League?).
Why am I glad? Because the entire progression system is different there. And if someone hasn’t played this “Tactics” before, they will definitely have big problems playing it.
As for the “Arena”… Yes, it’s a little unusual when you try it. But after 2-3 times, you understand the meaning and essence.
But in the end, as I understand it, you chose a different solution with some kind of “Smile” template? A request to the judges – please, provide a link to this template so that I can try it at least once (if, of course, it makes sense – because in my group, I might not need it due to not advancing to the next round).
P.S. The Bergoltz coefficient was also a good option, but since you chose “Smile”…
By the way, let’s not change the decision if it’s already been made. Certainty is always better than uncertainty. That’s just my opinion.
