It's time to write down my impressions of the meeting. As always, the company was great; I was very glad to see old friends and meet new ones (JustObserver, Browser, Twaryna's dad, and HW legend vbn). At the end, I really didn't want to leave, but all good things must come to an end sooner or later—though it leaves a desire for more and more meetings!

The base was good, regardless of what anyone says: fresh air, forest, a gorgeous conference hall (IMHO the best of all champs), billiards, tennis, football, plus a cafeteria right next door. Everything needed for proper leisure.

The Tournament went well; there were no major issues with refereeing, only some VT glitches, but it seems that can only be fixed by changing the version. We made it within the time limits, but barely)))) I won't name the reasons, but I think this is a serious reason for the CIS-15 organizers to reflect.

I played okay myself: won 3 games and lost 1 to the pro Stinger)))) Artyom did great; he played worthily and fairly earned his victory. For which I congratulate him once again :) But I also hope that next time the cup will actually head to Siberia!!

Minsk was a real pleasure. A beautiful and pleasant city. The cleanliness is a joy to see! Only the last taxi driver marred the perfect picture. (Though Diman Sheva could tell you even wilder stories about taxi drivers :D )

A huge thank you to everyone for the company. Huge thanks to Lizard for the organization. Thanks to Merlin for an excellent performance as the host. Thanks to Dust for the photos. Thanks to Just and Twaryna for the streams. Everyone who participated and helped—well done!!

CIS-15 for St. Petersburg! The weather doesn't scare me; I've wanted to break in there for a long time! I believe the guys there will make it so that it suits us perfectly!!!

And of course, we look forward to having you visit us ;) Siberia Championship 15 SHALL HAPPEN!!!! :smile49:
