Regarding the January 2013 tournament in Moscow, that's largely why I stopped organizing tournaments, because you essentially ruined the last one. You and Matrosov, at some point, told me that you would play together, as a team.

Wow, ruined it... it seems like you're experiencing either displacement or suppression. If I remember correctly, it went like this:

Initially, I was going to the tournament with an unclear status, either as a player or as a spectator. I didn't really want to play, because of the SoD rules, and the selection of templates wasn't great. When I arrived, I saw that there weren't many people, and I signed up to ensure there were enough players, while also complaining that no one plays XL+U here.

Apparently, this wish suited you, and you drew us for the first round. I played lm10 with interest, without any sabotage.

What happened in the second round, I've already described.

Before the third round, we discussed with Matroskin who should advance, and I said that they would probably put me against Jebusnyu, and I can't even stand playing against him in VT. So, I let Matroskin advance, and I limited myself to the role of a coach. By "playing together," I meant that you shouldn't interfere with me coaching Matrosov (you never know what kind of annoying people might show up).

Where is the tournament disruption here? I stuck to the schedule, didn't create any controversial situations, and increased the number of players.
