SergeyY deserves to advance to the playoffs. Since I have been in a similar situation myself, I have already expressed these thoughts: in this post. In short: Situation 1... The player admits defeat and officially informs about it in the tournament thread. The organizer is not happy with this; he demands that they come to an agreement and play, or at least collect three refusals from one of the sides. Three refusals were collected (despite how humiliating this activity was). BUT since the organizer noticed that the players sometimes overlap in time with other games, he called them cheaters and gave both of them "0." Situation 2... Due to mutual technical (valid) reasons, the players did not manage to play within the deadline. The organizer gives them an additional couple of days, but since coordinating schedules and the gameplay itself is very problematic, the players manage to restart twice within those two days, but promise the organizer that they will finish the match after a couple more attempts. As a result, in subsequent days, the players play up to turn 116, after which one of the opponents starts clearly avoiding playing... logs with 3-4 refusals are sent to the organizer, but he has already given both of them "0" again, calling them cheaters. 2Dirty

Please don't confuse the beginners' tournament with a regular tournament. In a regular tournament, discipline really plays an important role.

Personally, I find your phrase unpleasant because YOU, together with Pete, made the decision about giving "0"... the tournament was definitely not for beginners, and disciplinary moments, including the rules, were observed! 2Kash, I am not surprised by your position. this has happened before. But deluding yourself into thinking that no one will complain is not suitable for organizing tournaments, especially "beginners'" ones. Now there are people who disagree, and what do you do? You cut off the person completely... if I had been treated like this when I first came to ХВ, I would have told everyone to go away.
