COMPETITION FOR MONEY $$$ (2012)

It's perfectly natural that someone who wants to earn 100 bucks should justify their right to them. Right?

It's always like that.
First, the top players perceive 100 bucks as a gesture of support – like, put on a good show, play well, and I'll even take off my last pair of pants for the prize.
But when it's time to pay up, they say, "justify it," "earn it"... It's just like a foreman on a construction site with a crew of runaway Romanians...
What's the point? I think that in our time, 100 bucks, especially when split between three winners, has no commercial value.
You could barely buy a night with a cat for that money.
Just give it up, or say you don't have it.

And I don't see any heroism in that either. Obviously, in a "fair" way, if the AI wasn't glitching, with such a balance of power, Deemer wouldn't have been able to win. Not to mention if a human was controlling him!

Dear Sir!
There is no HEROISM in this.
Do you really think that a player of DmitryAS's caliber wouldn't be able to lose against Deemer if "fairness" was emphasized?
You should rather think about whether a player of your caliber can win against Deemer!
