Believe me, cobblestones fly from all sides even with "ideal" rules :D There are disputes about unfairness, disputes about the injustice of the game ending, and so on, and all of this is part of the tournament struggle. Of course, everyone wants everything to go smoothly, but if it's not smooth, you need to sort it out. The organizer is obliged to treat each player impartially and to understand and resolve all disputes. This is very difficult when you have to expend energy on emotions.

Well, that's exactly it, the organizer already doesn't have the strength to deal with all the controversial situations (and there are always a lot of them)... we are all human, and we all perfectly understand that reality can often prevail... but you also jumped in with your dispute, which everyone already understood, so who wouldn't lose their nerves! In general, I play for fun and don't see the point in upsetting anyone, it doesn't matter who, how, or what they do, everyone was happy (absent opponents don't count :)), it still won't change anything, you should have "spoken up" at the beginning of the tournament, not at its logical conclusion. What, by the way, were you thinking about in the second round when there were already postponed matches?)))
