Practically no one believes that Rebel was banned for suspected cheating, but rather for some other reason (personal dislike, favoritism, etc.). I am closing the tournament due to the obvious complete loss of trust in the organizer.
Local and non-local forum trolls who weren't involved in either the tournament or its selection process are stirring up trouble. It's not right to give in to them – they'll sense weakness and troll all your future endeavors. Do you really need that? Wouldn't it be easier to shut them down now?
And yes, in any case, the tournament shouldn't be closed. If you can't handle it yourself, pass the reins to someone else. Sag... Lizard... who else is active in foreign communities and has organizational experience?
P.S. By the way, I didn't quite understand – did you seriously think that such a tournament could go without disputes, without a bunch of dissatisfied people, etc.?

Maybe I'm wrong, but demanding anything now is pointless.
You won on all counts :)

They made an ill-considered decision, didn't weigh it properly, and now they are reaping the consequences. That very backlash has returned.
I don't remember you ever taking a constructive position in any dispute regarding unfair play. Whether it was with Eddie or others. You mainly engage in emotional outbursts, which aren't particularly appropriate here, and even harmful – because there are already many nervous wrecks in the Heroes community, and they easily fall for the general hype.
Sticky explained his position quite clearly. The other accusers did too. Even I, although I haven't looked at the saves, calmly explained what my point of view is based on. Without whining, bluffing, or pretending to be an innocent victim.
If you want to constructively challenge something, take the saves and get started. An example of how this should look can be found, for example, here:

All arguments of the accusation are refuted, and many additional arguments are provided in defense. And all without dramatization, exaggeration, just pure logic mixed with light sarcasm towards the prosecutor. If Rebel had responded like that from the beginning, there wouldn't have been all this fuss.
But now everyone has gotten their fill of crap. Since they enjoy it so much, why pretend? They're all one of us anyway :)
