I'll think about it. Maybe I'll play just to reach the quorum. I enjoy solving mysteries, but when everything is already known, the interest fades.
iceTiTaN, first, read his information carefully, or rather, his signature. Second, what's the point of the map creator playing their own map for speed? The probability that they will play it worse than anyone else is about 3%. I don't think there will be so many skilled players in the tournament to beat the record (if it exists, of course) of the creator.
I don't argue, if you play once, the probability is definitely no more than 3%. But when a good player plays 3-4 times, the chances will be almost equal. I think that if Dirty_Player plays, the result will be the same. The whole struggle will be for the stats.
Just knowing the map and executing the playthrough in reality are two completely different things!
For example, this month, a tournament was held http://www.heroesportal.net/tavern/?id=109533&pagenum=61&nocache=1344689440#m373401 and the map creator showed a result of 15 days, although he is a pretty good player and a monster at creating maps. And I showed a result of 9 days.
