Yes, with all due respect... I find it strange to see such an uproar from you about such an obvious case (unlike the previous situation). Sav's post about this bug appeared a) in the Heroes of Might and Magic forum, not the Might and Magic forum, and b) a day after Hell's request. The post by the "baratorch" user, which Sav refers to, was actually on the DF2 forum, and players are not required to know about its existence. The "baratorch" user himself did not consider the described bug to be an obvious consequence of installing the version (otherwise, there would have been a warning in the changelog). Therefore, Hell is not to blame for what happened. Yes, he could have used the timer more efficiently, but no, he was not obliged to play around the fact that the game would lag for 5-7 seconds. Given that the stream clearly shows that he was already performing the necessary action when the last second ticked (and no, he wouldn't have spent another 5-10 seconds thinking before clicking when the last seconds of the timer were running), this is a no-brainer for the adjudicator, not a complex and controversial situation.
I understand that it is quite frustrating that the adjudicator resolved the previous, less obvious situation not in your favor, and there is a understandable feeling of injustice and a desire to "get even," but in this case, Hell's request is very modest and fair (with such a bug, a more assertive player could have asked for a full N seconds for all the necessary actions).
You have once again presented your assumptions, "if only" and "what if."
Well, if you keep calling it a bug, maybe someone will believe it.
