Yura, are you serious? I've been in Heroes for many years, I'm known in the community, and many dozens of Heroes players have visited me. And suddenly, a check for organizational suitability... Wouldn't it have been easier to just read about my previous tournaments? Or ask Stinger, Horn, Yama-Dharma, PREDs, Napalm, Mizrael, Scorpio, etc.?

I'm telling you, it was an unconscious check. You can ask anyone, but you need to feel the situation yourself.

I was just thinking in my free time about why the conflicts flared up so sharply and subsided just as quickly. If there had been a chronic difference in interests, they would still be grumbling. I came up with this explanation. Maybe I'm wrong.

It was unpleasant for me to read phrases like "things aren't as bad as they seem at the upcoming tournament" and "it's a mess, not a tournament" about my tournaments.

Well, you really messed up when you said that your agreements with the club were more important than the convenience of the players. You can't say things like that out loud, especially when accompanied by swearing. You should have used some other arguments or presented them differently.

It's like refusing your wife a trip to a resort, arguing that your friend Vasya has agreed to let you stay at his dacha in Biryulyovo for a month, and it would be awkward for Vasya if you didn't come. It's a great way to provoke a divorce.

In fact, everything that happened next was more like a family scandal, with personal attacks, hyperbole, etc. Of course, all sorts of things and arguments are used, and people have stopped being ashamed.

You still haven't shown your exemplary tournament, so why are you writing this?

Well, the example of my tournament is too obvious to need to be given. With the exception of the Vitalik-Pit match, everything else was done as it should have been.

And the accusation that I was dishonest and helped Lyokha get 1st place in the Michurinsk selection – let that be on your conscience. There were 15-20 people in the club at the time, and they saw how the players drew the lots and how they played, who won and who lost.

It's not about dishonesty regarding Lyokha; I understand that everything was fine there, but about the reputational factor. One of the top players should win. And if a dark horse wins, they need to beat these top players in a head-to-head match. Otherwise, the prestige of the title will suffer. No one beat Stinger, but he didn't get 1st place. This is acceptable for a qualifier, but not for the final – that would be a failure for the organizers. It's strange that you don't understand this.

Where did you get that from? You're making completely unfounded statements and considering them axioms. Let's go through this step by step. Let's take the Heroes community and the best organizers.

I haven't even seen most of these people. So I can't judge. But for some reason, I think I would describe them very differently than you do. Perhaps because you have such a generally benevolent image that people don't show their thorns.

Chaos, for example, made an impression on me as a person with a difficult character and not inclined to avoid conflicts, based on his posts on League and ProGamer.

But even if you're right, what does that mean? That the Heroes community at that time was just a group of friends, for whom the main thing was to have a good time and they didn't care about all these games, sporting ambitions, and who would become the champion. It's hard to believe. Although, it's possible.
