Posts from An informative mini-tournament.

I propose we hold a tournament: I'm just the initiator; if any of the experienced players want to become the organizer (I don't have much experience myself), I'd be very happy.

1. The main goal is to exchange and share experience – it should be an educational and training event. The tournament should involve 3-4 experienced players (or better, 7) – let the Clans nominate one representative each, and let the Guildmaster oversee it (in his usual format).
2. The main idea of the tournament is that participants play two games at once, and in the second game, they switch castles.
3. The rules are the same as on the World server, but with immediate castle selection. If the castles are the same, let them exchange heroes.
4. The tournament complements and develops the idea of the "Favorite Castles in Battle" tournament. After all, you play a game with your favorite castle, and then play against it – and the opponent is the same! This provides ample opportunity for analysis and exchange of experience during, between, and after the games – at least for me. And you can offer advice for your favorite castle and learn something from an expert on another castle.
5. The number of participants should be 6 or more.
6. Timing – I would ideally hold it in the next three holiday days, and near bird!
7. The use of the TE interface is strictly voluntary and should be discussed separately among the participants; I would like to try it.
8. Anything else?

I'll send the information to all the familiar Heroes players via ICQ for discussion and ask them to express their opinions – preferably as specifically as possible. If anyone feels the need to chat a little and express their thoughts, they are also welcome – after all, it's just a discussion

And in general, how many games need to be played in a tournament, and how will the winner be determined? Will there be a table, for example, like in the "Favorites" section?

I have a question for you - will you play like you do in casual games?

This adds some variety to our ordinary hero life)). But I wouldn't mind a tournament where castles and heroes are chosen completely at random. Lately, I've been practicing this method of selection, and honestly, I really like it. That is, the meaning of restarts changes completely. After each restart, the castle is not the same as it was before, but a completely random one again, and the opponents change colors. Therefore, you can get Inferno with a fantastic respawn against Necropolis, but you need to think about it, because after a restart, it might turn out the other way around, but the respawn will be completely terrible.
And in general, why are there so few organizers of online Heroes 3 tournaments? Are they all so lazy? After all, the more tournaments, the more fun. If it's because of conflicts with other tournaments, you can make not too strict timeframes for the rounds and that's it. There are general rules, there are participants, all that remains is for someone to put it all together, come up with something interesting to attract participants, and go for it.

Actually, how many games need to be played in the tournament, and how will the winner be determined? Will there be a table, like in the "Favorites" section?

This is all open for discussion, and a decision will be made based on the results of this discussion. Once again, I would like to spend these 3 weekend days immersing ourselves in the wonderful world of Heroes and, at the same time, hold a mini-tournament. My family has already been informed of this decision. A little off-topic: Name options (taking promotion into account): Tigers and Toys, Mission: Impossible - III (meaning an educational mission), Favorites: Pros and Cons

I have a question for you - will you play like you do in your favorite games?

Is it still as bad? Well, my skill level hasn't improved much during this time:D :o, so I'm not aiming for anything. :smile19: Or are you talking about playing with TaKo? Well, our schedules never matched, my semester is already over, and I played the other 2 games earlier in the tournament. I will finish all the games on time.
Now, a suggestion about sharing impressions about the games - there seems to be a rule on some portal that awards an extra point for a detailed report. For example, if you win a game, you get 2 points in the tournament table. If you write a detailed report, you get another point. If you lose a game, you get 0 points, but if you write a report, you get 1 point;) .

I've already thought about this in ranked games. How can you not give the losing player at least half a point for writing a detailed and vivid report, instead of something like: "Vasya Pupkin vs. Alyosha Popovich, Alyosha Popovich win." I can't stand those kinds of reports, and I have a strange fondness for them :)

I have a question for you - will you play like in the favorites list?

What about you? :p

I will participate.

P.S. 2Loi, it is unrealistic for many to play the entire tournament over the weekend.

and you? :p

by the way, I played the first round well and didn't refuse to play until it started:let's wait a week and wait some more, give me tech support from everyone in my group!

Okay – if the tournament takes place, Dream will represent our clan ;) as the official representative! ;)

I'd be happy to play, but I only have 3 days off. I'm in.

Great - if the tournament takes place, Dream will represent our clan ;) As the official representative! ;)

Thank you for the honor of entrusting me to fight for the clan :smile13:

We expect to have around 8 people, and the tournament bracket should be posted by 12:00 PM Moscow time tomorrow. Work is in progress. If anyone wants to play in the tournament right now, please contact us via ICQ, and we'll try to figure it out.

Addition to the rules (in brief): TIGROKI (experienced players) should definitely save their games,
ideally, daily! Then, we can have a separate thread for discussing the games, with a master class featuring experts from HW, HP, and HB – it doesn't really matter.
Please provide feedback more promptly.

I will participate too; Pavel Dubrovin and I have already started one game.
