It's not always possible to recreate a walkthrough based on the description alone. Remember, for example, the situation with the "arrival" of the boat... :)
After all, your entire walkthrough is based on this :D:D:D

I'm tired of explaining obvious things, honestly :(
In this case, the player must provide either a save file from the end of the day, after which the boat arrives, or a save file from the beginning of the day when it has already arrived. According to the rules, all players must keep save files for each day.
And that's good, but it would be even better to specify in the rules that save files for the beginning and end of each day should be kept. Why?
1. The player finishes the turns of day 1, saves, and advances the turn. At the beginning of day 2, they save again. If they now send a save file from the end of day 1, the judge, by advancing the turn, may get a situation that is different from the save file from the beginning of day 2 that the player has (for example, the AI will make different moves).
2. To prevent this, I suggest the following:
The player finishes the turns of day 1, SAVES, IMMEDIATELY loads this save file, and THEN advances the turn. They create a save file for the beginning of day 2. Now, when the judge receives the save file from the end of day 1, advances it, they will, with a higher probability, get a situation that accurately corresponds to the beginning of day 2.

Who doesn't believe it? Let's test this. I can send a save file from the end of day 7. If you load it on your computer and advance the turn, you should see the yellow boat arrive at the shore. I tested this on two computers. I took this save file, went to another computer, and advanced the turn, and the boat arrived. Then I tried to reload this save file at the end of the seventh day, trying to get a situation where the boat would not arrive, BUT, it still arrived :)

But just in case, for my own peace of mind, it's still best to keep save files for the beginning and end of each day. And it would be best to reflect this in the rules so that there are no ambiguities.
In this case, the judge can request two save files from any day (beginning and end) and clearly recreate that day based on the description, and in fact, they can request any of the days SELECTIVELY according to this scheme, so as not to ask the player for literally all the save files for each day. But in this case, the player must provide a description of how to play that day so that the judge understands exactly what needs to be done.

Yeah, it's probably hard to understand, but who has it easy these days?

I was told about the situations that happen on other portals.
Who told you this and why, you are an expert on what's happening there.

Maybe where you were, it's acceptable, but it's not acceptable here, and IT WON'T HAPPEN!
Enough with the slogans. We'll catch up and surpass, we'll teach newcomers in practice, but when it comes to accepting the necessary point in the rules about providing a description by the leader so that the same newcomers can learn from it, you hide? Hmm, keep it up.

And regarding the victory, I'll give you some advice:
"Don't underestimate your opponents, and don't overestimate your own strength"
I don't need your advice, I've heard enough already, although this last one seems okay, but I knew that even without you. I've won and lost in my time, so I'm ready for anything and won't cry :D
