Thanks to the guys for the warm welcome and the patience with which they waited for the absent-minded guest.
Compared to the trip to Novosibirsk, the return journey went smoothly: the only mishap was that my bag's tag tore off while it traveled separately, but at the checkpoint they believed me quickly enough that it was mine.

I feel rested and refreshed, I just need to catch up on sleep:)

Regarding the tournament: the last person I wanted to play against was Kostya, and he felt the same about me, but before the draw he predicted: "You'll see, we'll play in the first round" — and that's exactly what happened.
Dirty_Player (blue, Conflux, Luna, Luna/Nela) def PReDS (red, Barbarian, Tyraxon, Tyraxon), Jebus Cross, 132(?).

We played BT without experience, tax, or bank. We agreed on morale, but during the resets we had to restart the game, the settings were lost, and we didn't notice it right away.
Dirty once again demonstrated superb play with Luna, while I fell into a financial crisis on Jebus Cross early in the second week — I had built bears in the Citadel at home and in the fort on secondary with an external dwelling, but I found no gold to buy all that, let alone upgrade the bears. Then my prophecy came true — Kostya's GO turned out to be fairies, which the gr. psychos from 4 external dwellings happily wiped out. As a result, I broke into the center much later than Kostya, hung around there for a few days, and surrendered.

After that, I made my way through the losers' bracket quite comfortably (we played as if double elimination, but due to time constraints it was decided that the finalists from the winners' bracket would take 1st and 2nd place, and Deep_Mik and I didn't play for 3rd).

PReDS (blue, Conflux, random, Wystan) def Colt (red, Castle, Caitlin, Christian), smka, 135(?), SoD.
Super layout with monks guarding 2 secondaries and a horde of harpies with an upgraded stack guarding the third. Zero gold at respawn, except for a pre-max crypt on 111, on the first secondary I only broke through the harpies, first softening them with Gird and archers at 42 (exactly 3 harpies), then took the dungeon. On the first secondary — water elementals at the Citadel with an external dwelling, markets, thousands, dungeon without portal. On the second secondary I broke through everything needed, placed phoenixes, and the rest was routine. The visit through the secondary came as a surprise to the red player.

PReDS (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def Erny (blue, Castle, Caitlin, ??? (I don't remember)), Balance, 132, TE-lite.
An external dwelling of minotaurs for Dungeon on Balance — that says it all. Quickly got log, earth, found boots. The pressure was that tactics wasn't leveled, and the entrance to the teleport near the opponent was guarded by titans. At my GO — 90+ bulls — it became advanced, 2 angels and a gr. harpies held them off in the first round, and then the minotaurs arrived and sealed the deal. At the exit, a horde of gr. cops and a final fight for the blue player with no chance.

Thanks to everyone for a pleasant and interesting trip.
