I'm also on Viktor's side, but perhaps (within the context that this topic is about tournaments) he isn't entirely right as an organizer regarding awarding technical wins to both players in any case where they don't play. And I hope that maxlewis was just nervous (it happens to everyone); honestly, I partially understand him, but why be rude? There's no need for that. I hope everything gets resolved and everyone learns the necessary lessons from this not-so-pleasant story. IMHO.
