No offense to you, IronAxe, but if it weren't for your post, no one would have paid attention to her words... And now, there's all this arguing and demagoguery... Besides, these saves were sent to the VDV organizer separately; two were sent to me for safekeeping, since Reaper's nickname didn't appear in bold in the table.
I noticed not only her post. Here's what Alexander G.K. wrote:

HELLO! I'm having problems with "email" again: I can't send files! Can someone send my save to VDV and Alan!

Try archiving the save.

Okay, I'll try... And then, can I upload it here, to the topic?!
It seems to have worked...
P.S.: It didn't work.... DAMN!

How would you interpret this? It includes a request to send the save to the players and even an attempt to upload it to the forum :)

You can start discussing that sending saves to someone other than the official organizer is also a serious violation of the rules...
But that's unnecessary – as far as I understand, the organizers can substitute for each other if one is unavailable. And VDV almost always indicates who to contact in his absence.

Regarding point 12 of the rules... Where did you find that it prohibits ANY discussion?? It's quite logical, and the fact that this is only coming up now suggests that it prohibits online discussion on the forum, which could become public.
Here's an example of how people misinterpret poorly worded rules – Ataman writes:

Point 12 of the rules:
Discussion of the tournament during its conduct is PROHIBITED!!!
That is, on the forum, in private messages, and anywhere else. It's impossible to track this, but when they say they discussed the Walkthrough... (they should have kept quiet).
