Posts from Appeals Committee. Disputed situations in tournaments.
I'm just curious, how much does an hour of a programmer's work on Heroes 3 cost?
And I also suggest that God intervene in our lives and rewrite our DNA so that no one lies. We simply can't live like this anymore!!! Let's vote!!!
Formally speaking, yes, it's a game action, and if there was an "end of turn," then there shouldn't be a continuation, but again, what is an "end of turn"? Often, players do it just because the opponent asked them to.
And is such a minor thing as casting "look" really a crime?
Essentially, the player is remembering the geography and position on the map – which they knew when they were playing, and at that time, they were using "look" and using that information. Why shouldn't they be able to do it when continuing the game?
For example:
Day 121, Jebus. Preparing to move to the center. I use "look" to prepare, and then the opponent asks me to save the game. So, at the time of the save, I have information from "look."
Time passes... we continue the game.
Oops!!! – I no longer have the information from "look," and using it now threatens me with a technical loss.
zloy_romantikMost of the referees agreed that actions (completing moves, using previews, setting up, etc.) taken by the player who uploaded the save are a violation of fair play rules and will be penalized with technical defeats; this addition will be included in the rules section soon.

I posted a report for the referees here. Please review it.They reviewed it long ago, but for some reason, they haven't written the decision yet. In fact, the referees decided to annul the match. Next time, if there are violations during save loading that contradict the fair play rules, technical defeats will be issued.
I don’t understand why top players don’t comment on this topic here. For example, when playing with Ivan aka FireToSky, I’m sure that if he uses replays, I won’t say a word about it, knowing this. At the same time, I doubt that the opposite would happen, if I use replays, and he would criticize me for it. I think the same will happen in games with Hellight, Lizard, Homunculus, Lucky, Amilu, Amsterdam, etc. (top-level players).

Frankly, I think it's absurd to penalize players for using replays. In other words, the situation is this: I'm playing a game against Dirty, let's say it's an HL map, and we save the game on June 5th with a turn count of 145. We continue on June 29th, and I don't remember anything, so I decide to use replays.
To rephrase, the Arbitration Committee has decided to cancel a game in which someone was completely dominated, because the dominator used a spell after a long save, using 1-2 mana?! So, the game was won only because of watching the replay, is that what it means?! I highly doubt it. In other words, without seeing the game, a decision was made to cancel a one-sided game, in which the outcome would not have changed regardless of whether SevenSun watched the replay or not.
P.S.
I want to see how the issue was presented to the Arbitration Committee for this match and who voted how, because I think it was mentioned somewhere that the results of each vote would be published?!

Banning something that is not always easy to track is, in any case, a ridiculous idea. It will result in a purely Russian-style law: "If you're not caught, you're not a thief; if it's not proven, you're not a thief; if you don't bribe, you're not a thief, and only if..."

I actually think it's ridiculous to punish people for using replays. In other words, it's like this: I play a game against Dirty, let's say it's an HL map, so we save it on June 5th with a turn count of 145, for example, and continue on June 29th. I don't remember anything and decide to use replays.

Otherwise, Occam's razor is violated. For example, if vision is allowed, then someone detaches 1 unit – well, it's allowed, then someone detaches 2, 3..., then someone builds something. Should there be a separate rule for each case? Where to draw the line between a violation and "almost not a violation," and most importantly, why?
You can't do anything after a turn has been made! (and submitted! This is ideal). It doesn't matter if it's during bonus time or not. In general, we need to write a set of rules for postponing a game and discuss all controversial points there, so that it doesn't happen that "the power went out, and I disappeared for three months too" :)
Artem, sorry, but reading this from you is hilarious ))) It seems that even the concept of "papal postponement" was created by you )))
