WT Nostalgy

The decision is very strict, and honestly, I feel sorry for Tofsla, but in this case, I personally am completely unbiased on Helllight's side. Back in the day, "when WT was dying" — about 4 years ago, I came to HW permanently and started playing in tournaments here. So I'll never forget a game with Toganash in one of the OZV tournaments, when the AC forced a replay because of an even smaller detail than a +1 upgrade picked up without clearing the guard. I was seriously burned up back then, wanted to send all of HW far away for a long time. But then I pulled myself together and came to the conclusion that the approach was correct — the rules are the same for everyone. You can't "violate just a little bit." Either you violated, or you didn't.
well this is complete idiocy not correlating with real life. this approach would be logical and fair if 100% of saves were later checked for these minor violations instead of formally banning parties or, God forbid, awarding a victory if something accidentally came to light. everyone understands what affects the result and what doesn't, but clinging to every

is just a way to weasel out. I imagine if in real life, for stealing a loaf of bread and for killing a person, the punishment was execution. although in the "hungry years" it was like that. so apparently HW is going through hungry years in life)

Conclusions on the game Helllight vs Tofsla

No obvious maphack was observed, and an implicit one could be imagined anywhere. Overall, Tofsla's moves have logic, including the last move, which probably raised the most questions.

BUT!

A detailed review of the moves revealed that on turn 116, Tofsla violated point "8" (Past the guard, you can only take resources, campfires, and mills — everything else must be cleared, even if you have control. First the guard is fought, then the object is picked up. For Jebus, you must clear the guard to enter the adjacent zone).
He took an upgrade and a Priest without clearing the guard, gaining +1 to attack and +1 to spell. Whether it was intentional or not, how much it affected the outcome — is not that important, the fact is the fact.

For the future: if in doubt, you should make a save (so as not to lose the timer) and send it to the judges for clarification, or, as a last resort, to an experienced player.

This is a tournament with prizes, let's all pay closer attention to the rules!

Result:

There was no maphack. The game results are voided, a replay is required with streams from both sides, to avoid repeating conflicts!
And I have a question for the highly respected Mee who found time to review the saves, but did not find time in a week to reply to me on Skype — which I messaged him on a week ago, which he provided for communication in the tournament. I even asked Andres to write to him via other sources, and MEE confirmed that "he would ping me soon," but somehow there's no reply. We are all adults here and everyone has their own questions, but it's somehow strange not to find a minute in a week to reply and arrange things. And then we wonder — why did WT die...
