I tried very hard to make sure everything was well-organized, but, of course, there were some hitches. For example, Cobra spent half an hour looking for a taxi driver at the airport, and then they spent a long time together looking for the base itself. There was also an emergency situation when we had to call a taxi to meet the guys from St. Petersburg and take them to the airport, because they had to travel with a drunk brother to the nearest village, where they met a taxi driver who was initially stuck at a railway crossing and, at the last moment, turned around to meet them. But, despite all the hitches, everyone made it everywhere on time. Also, it turns out that only 8 artifacts are needed to collect the Might of the Dragon Father in Yekaterinburg, not 9 as in other places, but these are minor details.)))
I was very pleased that not many people played poker, thanks to the variety of other entertainment. Thank you to Merlin for his show program, and also for putting a lot of effort into organizing this evening.
THANK YOU to all the guests who came to visit us in the Urals, THANK YOU to everyone who helped with the organization, and especially to Merlin, Asm, Vika (both ours and from St. Petersburg), Alon, and Yak.
Congratulations to Stinger on his well-deserved victory. We need to figure out how to increase the number of his ranks in the NiKe chat (I've already made a medal for his awards).
I declare the CIS-2012 championship closed, both here and online.
P.S. Let's have CIS-2013 in Minsk! :)
