Thank you for your response. I personally believe that a player who has been eliminated from the competition (regardless of the reason) should not be able to influence the final outcome of the tournament. A loser is out. But what if there were players who simply didn't have time to play against him? Then what? Would some players have easy wins in the standings? If we think logically, Hardcore is at least entitled to a game against a bot. Or does "strictly individual" mean "strictly biased"?
I promise that today I will play against Hardcore as if I were a bot.
