Rewrote the first post of the thread. Please review it. Key additions and changes:
Additional registration. Late registrations will be accepted during the first two rounds (until October 27). A player who registers late will be seeded into a specific bracket and included in the list of possible replacements. If a spot becomes available in a group from the same bracket and games with the withdrawn player have not yet begun, the replacement issue will be considered individually. Applications from players who recently registered on the forum are reviewed on an individual basis. Players known on other resources and experienced in the game but new to HW need to provide tournament organizers with information about themselves (the resource name and their nickname there).
Regarding the HDmod version:
I.2. Game Version SoD 3.2 (4.0), by mutual agreement between WT or any other version. It is recommended to use a mod to improve the functionality of the interface - HoMM3 HD. During the group stage, the HDmod version is determined by mutual agreement. The player using the HDmod is responsible for all bugs that arise when using it.
The most unpleasant problem for the tournament organizers is suspicion of maphacking. Currently, the HD-mod does not solve this problem. Let's hope that something will change before the start of the playoffs. For now, we play with what we want/can.

Added rules for different templates and links to the templates.

Please note:
Reports must be submitted according to the following scheme:
Group. Date of game. Player 1 Nickname (color, castle, starting hero, main hero) [game result - def, lose, draw] Player 2 Nickname (color, castle, starting hero, main hero), template, game time.
the group should be written at the beginning of the report.
9. The winner of the tournament and players who take 2nd and 3rd place will be awarded Medals under their avatar.
There are more than 80 participants in the tournament; it's a very strong lineup, and getting into the top three will be difficult.

Timetable and regulations for the first stage. Stage 1. Group stage. 16 groups of 5 players each. Each player in the group plays one match against all other players. 1 point is awarded for a win, 0.5 points for a draw, and 0 for a loss. In total, everyone must play 4 matches – 4 rounds.
Round I. September 29 - October 12. Round II. October 13 - October 26. Round III. October 27 - November 9. Round IV. November 10 - November 23. Make-up games, draws - November 24-26.
Attention!
If a player has not played the required number of games by the deadline at the end of the round, they must explain the reasons either on the forum or by contacting the tournament organizers directly. "Missing" participants will be disqualified and replaced with players from the reserve list.
An equal number of points in groups is a standard problem. We will try to solve it as follows:
Two players who have scored the most points advance from the group. If there are an equal number of points, places are determined according to additional criteria (in order of priority): 1. Berger coefficient. 2. Head-to-head result. 3. Points earned in the game "weigh" more than technical losses. 4. If it is impossible to determine those advancing to the playoffs based on previous indicators, players will be offered a scheme for tiebreaker matches. At present, it is impossible to foresee all possible combinations of results. Therefore, the final scheme will be developed based on the situation that develops in the groups towards the end of the stage. 4. 1. If a controversial situation arises only in one group between two players (equal KB, draw in head-to-head match, equality in techs), then a replay is scheduled between them. 5. 2. If there is an equality of indicators 1-3 among three players only in one group, the player with the higher seasonal (if equal, permanent) rating at this time takes a higher place. The remaining two players play a replay. 6. 3. If there are an even number of contenders for promotion from different groups, a cross-draw will be held. The winners advance + lucky losers (criterion - seasonal and permanent ratings). 7. 4. If there are an odd number of contenders for promotion from different groups, first, one player who has the highest seasonal (if equal, permanent) rating will be selected from those who have scored the most points in the groups, who advances directly to the playoffs, and a cross-draw will be held among the rest, the winners of the games advance to the playoffs. If necessary, more lucky losers with the best result in the seasonal (if equal, permanent) rating also advance. 8. 5. The deadline for tiebreaker matches is 1 week.
I'll think about it some more today; if I remember anything else, I'll add it and then translate it into English (second post). ------------------------------------------------------------- TO ariputra. I don't doubt that questions – who gave what to whom and where – are very important. But right now, it is more important for me that people read the additions to the first post. Therefore, all subsequent discussions will be deleted.

...I violated the current rules, purely out of sincere misunderstanding. After Mizrael pointed out the rules, I admitted defeat.
That’s it, the issue is resolved; further discussion is off-topic, flooding, and trolling. Stop cluttering up the thread.
