[POLL] Who is to blame, and what should be done?

I see some doubts have arisen, even though it seems like you could just trust me on these matters...

The approximate plan of action is as follows: after the 4th round, gather the interested participants and a few of the most reasonable people (it's best to send the "fighters" for a beer), and deliver a speech along these lines:

- Guys, do you understand what we've done? If we sign this protocol, Heroin will come with a load of crap, and Wicc will come with a fan, and not everyone will be able to clean themselves up.

Then, take a grandmaster-level pause, wait until the "screw Wicc!" hysteria subsides, but hands are still trembling, and Cobra hasn't had time to run in with an offer to buy a box of deodorant from him, and propose the described HPV (presumably, a plan or strategy).

The political justification is roughly as follows: the protesting electorate can be conditionally divided into two groups: those who are unhappy with the fact that there was a deal in principle, and those who are unhappy with Lizard's unfair victory. Nothing can be done with the first group (unless you forget to let Merlin out of the base's toilet for a month), so this is not the target audience. But the second group is quite susceptible to being "refined."

The Lizard-Hell match in the 5th round is best suited for this "refinement." If Hell wins, then he is the legitimate king, who did not allow the bastard Lizard to the Iron Throne. And if Lizard wins, then he is the legitimate king, who defeated the reigning king in a face-to-face battle; they will quickly forget about the underwear left in the brothel.

After all that has been said, Hell and Lizard will most likely be in favor, and Aive will probably be too, but if necessary, he can be "persuaded" with Lizard's wallet; he's used to it.

As a result, the number of votes for "depriving him of the title" will decrease dramatically (by a factor of 2-3), Redwait will only be harassed by a group of fanatical "fighters" and Satyr out of habit, and half of the protesting electorate will move to the "do nothing" camp.

True, the "who is to blame" section will expand somewhat, but the distribution will be more even. That is, the mess will be partially cleaned up, and partially spread in a thinner layer over a larger number of participants.

And since the organizers only need a legitimate champion and less turmoil in their cozy community, the achieved result is clearly in their interests, as it improves both points.

True, the judge might get a little more heat for these "artistic endeavors," but it will be more fair than what happened now. In a way, the players are acting within the framework defined by the judge, so the judge is no less (or even more) responsible for the mess than the players. Now, Lizard and Redi have taken the brunt of it, and the rest have only been splashed with it, which, in my opinion, is wrong.
