BLITZ TOURNAMENT

Hello, all you debaters! :) 1. Using the bonus from sea movement points on land is forbidden in any form, because I consider this to be a bug. Anyone who wants to can familiarize themselves with this in the article I provided. It doesn't cover all aspects of the bug, but only shows the calculation of movement points. If I have time, I will explain the rest sometime... 2. My comments regarding the use of this bug were about the most common method used by cheaters (and that's exactly what you are, dear Iron) – landing/embarking to accumulate movement points. SoD 3.2 doesn't allow the use of this mechanism, but I didn't want people with other versions to naively think that "if it's not explicitly forbidden, it's allowed"... :) If you had asked me to explain all aspects of using this "hat," the fourth stage wouldn't have started yet, so I limited myself to a general ban on using the sea bonus and commented on how this bug is usually used... 3. Dmitry_A_S interpreted my explanations absolutely correctly. And how else, tell me, can one understand the phrase "using navigation bonuses on land is forbidden"? 4. Understanding that this ban is a double-edged sword, and to avoid misinterpretation of this ban in cases where using the "hat" was appropriate, I additionally stated that if there is a reasonable basis for using the mechanism built into the "hat" to recalculate bonuses, then it is allowed. Otherwise, any use of the Admiral's "hat" can be disputed, which will turn the game into an endless argument. 5. In this case, the walkthrough provided by Radik formally falls under the note stated in the previous paragraph. Escaping by bribing the guardians in order to be hired in the home city is a sufficient reason for using the "hat." The hero had no other way to get to the city. So, "formally," I can't make any claims here. Let's leave everything as it is. 6. Regarding the suggestion to "make changes to the rules during the tournament," I assure you that nothing good will come of it, and therefore it will not pass at any level... All changes (please don't confuse this with clarifications of existing rules) will only take effect after the tournament is over... But since the player is voicing a "trick" that he noticed on the map, I have to comment on it for everyone; there is nothing else I can do. If he had sent me a private message, I would have answered only him and wouldn't have brought it up in the thread. And regarding "selling the last unit" – this is not a correct interpretation of this moment. You are not selling the last unit, but exchanging it for gold with the Mage. And tell me, how often do you encounter this on the map? I think it's the first time... You can't sell the last unit in principle. But an exchange – well, that's your right, if the map allows it and it's not explicitly forbidden... 2 Iron. Regarding allowing the use of "pseudo-bugs," I will say the same thing as before. If you want, start a tournament and officially allow the use of everything the player knows in the game, without using third-party programs. That would also be quite interesting. But don't interfere in someone else's business with your own rules. I am against allowing the use of bugs, because it will create a lot of additional problems with verification... And that's enough about that.
