1. I am not blaming anyone. The history shows that I was the first one to be accused... Cagliostro writes to me, "Should I remind you how many games you've played?" That's where it all started. 2. I didn't say a word about any unfair collusion within OUR group. I only told Cagliostro the facts about how many games I didn't play and why. 3. I said that collusion is POSSIBLE in a situation with these rules, where three friends knock out two world champions from the tournament. 4. "And he accepted everything as it was, without any complaints." And I accepted everything without any complaints. The group stage ended on December 31st, and it wasn't until February 4th that I found out that, apparently, both players were given losses in the group stage, but in the playoffs, Cash was still giving technical wins. What's the difference between the playoffs and the group stage? Nothing! It's the same as the group stage, but with only 2 people in the group! Cash writes, "A winner is needed in the playoffs." But isn't a winner needed in the group stage either? 5. He keeps emphasizing "read the rules!" But there is NOT a SINGLE WORD in the rules (we're looking at the first page of the tournament) that says that both players will be given losses in the group stage, but in the playoffs, there will be technical wins.
