To date, 3 club Tournaments have been held or are underway – Siberia, Yekaterinburg, and Michurinsk.
Two more face-to-face Tournaments are planned – Kingisepp and St. Petersburg. I have no doubt about the competence of the people organizing them; I think that five face-to-face Tournaments is very good, at least a couple of years ago, there weren't even that many.
The Tournaments are small, with 8-10 people, but the best representatives from their communities are selected for them.
I would like to see qualifying rounds held in Moscow and Ukraine, as last year, but the situation there is more difficult.
Possible final lineup. If we hold 5 face-to-face Tournaments, we will gather a lineup for the final that represents different regions. Perhaps there will be more Tournaments and participants. But the main principle – only participants from the face-to-face qualifiers play – must be preserved. Otherwise, it is easy to go downhill (providing places without selecting the strongest players -> providing quotas to just good people -> quotas for friends -> places for anyone). If the winner of the qualifying champ cannot play, then it is better for the person who came in 4th or 5th place to play.
If we can agree with each other normally, without arguing, then the final lineup will be strong.
Location of the final. They say – Michurinsk. Since I started it all, I will definitely hold it, and I hope to do it at a decent level. When we determine the finalists, sometime after the New Year, then we will talk about this topic in more detail.
If I host the final, then you will also get an additional event.
There was a proposal to hold a Might and Magic 2 Tournament. Naturally, it differs from the Might and Magic 3 Tournament in its goals. This is not a championship, but just a Tournament. Participants will be required to create save files and provide detailed descriptions of the matches. An attempt to create an informative Tournament for fans of strategy games, let's see what happens.
There is already a group of like-minded people, albeit a small one... but 6-8 people are enough for us.
This is what the heroic festival will be like.
I would also like to wish the players and tournament organizers good luck and patience. Yes, organizing a Tournament and participating in it requires financial and emotional costs, but the overall return exceeds the costs. Communicating in person with friends and playing live gives a lot of positive emotions, and there will be something to remember for a long time.
