Appeals Committee. Disputed situations in tournaments.

Hello. I'm on your side in this dispute. I don't know if it will help or not, but you could draw AK's attention to the following point. Hellight's lags were related to the fact that he couldn't open the spellbook and nothing else. And when the lags were gone, he used it. The rest, he didn't have time to block your path, not because of the lags, but because of incorrect time management, since he didn't have any lags after the damage dealing phase. As Dirty said earlier in that thread, everyone can use their timer as they want... But from AK's decision, it turns out that if this lag had occurred at the very beginning of his turn and he hadn't had time to block the path, they would still have allowed him to block the path. Good luck.

Here is another point for consideration. I didn't sign the author, because I don't know if he wanted to publicize it or not; it came in a private message.Following the logic of the unknown author, since the lags occurred when opening the book, should he have been given the opportunity to replay the turn starting from that moment? But I doubt that would have satisfied you.

"Cup to Siberia, or something like that?"

This is the second time I've read such a remark from you. On the one hand, it's unpleasant, and on the other hand, it's funny. If you think that AK, where there are 3 people from Moscow and 1 from Siberia, is "favoring Siberia," then something is wrong with your head. With such an attitude, I don't want to comment on anything further.

the only thing that matters here is that the player is asking to be given more time!!!

He is asking not to be given, but to compensate. These are two very different things.

I doubt it, so why, based on hysterical screaming, was such a decision made? I would like to hear a detailed, well-reasoned answer.
and not just from you, but from everyone who made this decision.

Below, I have provided all my arguments; if they are not enough for you, then I cannot help you, I don't have any others, and I didn't have any at the time the decision was made. I will not comment further on this situation; here, "heavy arguments" about Siberia, etc., have already begun. I will always be happy to chat with you in private/Skype, Anton, if you have any further questions for me.

If any of my colleagues would like to express their opinion, I would be happy to, because it's getting a bit tiresome that I am the one being dragged into the mud for every controversial situation.
