Selection for FB-3.

Well, isn't it clear to you???? Can you read?
One

We talked on ICQ—the issue was resolved. Yes, that's how it was. But to prove cheating, it must be proven in each specific game.

(the quote must be given in full so the meaning isn't lost.)
Two

Hardcore assessed the situation adequately and decided not to pour oil on the fire.

and slightly earlier three

I have no intention of disclosing the details—there is no need for that.

We talked together and decided what would be best. Why are you butting in here without knowing the details? The draw is in no way, I repeat absolutely in no way, related to the loser's cheating! It was set for other reasons. And both players agreed to this result at the time.
Regarding Vitalik. I'm telling you again, there were many nuances. After all the investigations, he was given a CMCh. And then, in accordance with point 8 of the rules, he was disqualified and all his results were annulled.
The same point states

8. Players who have a CMCh are not allowed to participate in the tournament. If any player is awarded a CMCh during the tournament, they will be disqualified and their results annulled. The issue of participation in the tournament for players on the Black List is decided by the Organizers on a case-by-case basis.

And it's this "case-by-case basis" that I was talking about.
The loser's cheating has absolutely nothing to do with the result of this game. Absolutely nothing at all.
This player was kicked out of the tournament.
Let's wait for Judge Pete.
