Posts from Appeals Committee. Disputed situations in tournaments.

In this case, the decision should have been made by the tournament judge or judges, as Sanin is an interested party. Dirty is one of the tournament judges, and it's possible that the phrase "the judge decided to continue" should be interpreted as "I, Dirty, as a tournament judge, made the decision." If that's not the case, it sounds strange, and then it should be specified which of the judges made the decision, perhaps it was a decision by a triumvirate of tournament judges.

I have the impression that this particular tactic was indeed the trump card in my opponent's hands. The fact is that I often have very unstable internet, and on average, in one out of three games, problems inevitably arise, and my opponents in the games can confirm this, as I don't really have close friends on Heroes of Might and Magic. In the previous game, things weren't smooth either; at the scheduled time, I suddenly experienced glitches for about half an hour, and I was close to a technical loss, although I had a significant advantage. And Dark was stalling the game, both that time and this time, counting on problems, as I now think. (I have proof, by the way.)
And now I have connection problems again; it's the perfect time. Let him first tell what happened that day, on Sunday, and then let's make some assumptions about the green hero when the internet was down. Not only are they accusing me of cheating, but also of being stupid.
Yes, I don't understand programming, connections, networks, routers, and so on, but if I were a liar, I would have enough brains to turn off the Wi-Fi, saying that the children were playing around. (This is how our Western Heroes of Might and Magic players like to make things up.)
P.S. And saves before a battle are not as reliable as my GM1 save system after a crash, because you can lose in a game, crash, and continue the game before taking the city.

If the opponent still had time on their timer, then why not? But if there was no timer, then they should immediately pass their turn.

No, because the turn was passed, and the save was made.
No, because one of the sides gained an advantage, such as exploring the map by viewing the terrain for 9 minutes.
And no, because I don't allow myself such tricks, so I would like to see the official, definitive position of the AK (Administration Committee), and if possible, I will use it too.
In fact, the turn that has already taken place is changed in this situation (in my opinion).

Since the turn has been passed and the save has been made, just save the game yourself and start from your save. What's the problem?

Does anyone have an opinion on this, or is it really nonsense? Like, is this how everyone does it?

Most of the AKs have decided that actions (completing moves, using previews, building, etc.) by the player who uploaded the save are a violation of fair play rules and will be penalized by the tech support team. This addition will be made to the rules section soon.
