Appeals Committee. Disputed situations in tournaments.

Even though this is about rehabilitating Katerina, it's only fair to say that these issues should be resolved before the game, especially if it's not a turn-based game with a chess clock: if you agree that someone needs to go to sleep at a certain time, save the game. If you don't agree and the opponent refuses to save, that's your problem if you didn't specify the time you can play when registering for the tournament. If the timer doesn't work during the battle, I use it as I want – I can even go to the shower during my turn. During the opponent's turn, I can't do that in SoD because the timer starts counting down from the moment the opponent passes the turn, not from the moment I receive the turn, as in a turn-based game.

Just imagine. It's night, after a couple of hours, and finally, it's a final battle or a pseudo-final battle. Your brain is already not fresh, and then the opponent starts dragging out each ROUND to 40 minutes or an hour (they really played 5 rounds, somewhere between 2.5 and 4 hours, I don't remember exactly). Honestly, I've never encountered anything like this.

You can also psychologically attack the opponent (I definitely wouldn't be able to restrain myself), and if there's a girl on the other side of the computer, it's very inappropriate. Of course, it's not specified in the rules, the counter isn't ticking, but it's just not nice. Everything is based on my opinion, of course.

I'll express my opinion about the whole situation for the last time: different people play Heroes, and you encounter all sorts of people – decent, adequate guys with whom it's pleasant to play and communicate (it's good that there are mostly such people); there are people who, after saving, don't finish the game in a losing situation (I had this happen twice with one player, who is quite well-known and quite controversial – they gave up on one game, started a second, saved, and then just stopped responding to messages); there are people who complain and don't understand when you don't let them auto-lose in a tournament. We tolerate all of this and continue to play.

And here, a girl (I just want to say "because of female foolishness") cheated once, withdrew from the tournament (she wrote to the organizer herself), promises not to repeat it – and there are such harsh judgments (lynch her! execute her! ban her!). Moreover, in two months of playing, she went from the level of three heroes in the first week to an acceptable average level. Why can't she be given a second chance in this situation? Can't you see the difference from the situation being discussed in parallel, where the person simply disappeared when accused and will probably change their nickname again and appear under a different name?
