Tournament in memory of Vladimir "Wowa" Assorgin.

So, it has been more than a year since our friend and brother, Vladimir "Wowa" Assorgin, passed away. The memory of this person lives on! After discussing the format with some people, we decided not to come up with anything unusual, but simply hold a tournament using Wowa's favorite maps. And the winner will have the right to participate in the next Final Battle tournament.



I. General questions.
1. Game version SoD 3.2 (4.0) + HD mod + HW_rules_mod patch. Latest stable version.
2. There is a bidding war for the right to choose the Town and Color.
3. The choice of map is made by crossing out from a list of 7 maps: Anarchy, Diamond, Jebus Cross, 8xm12a, 6lm10a, Ёлка, mt-diamond. (The list may be adjusted if someone suggests what other maps Wowa liked to play on. If anyone has information, please write to me in PM). The right to cross out the map first is determined by flipping a coin. The player "who wins the coin flip" chooses who will cross out first.
4. Rules are standard.
Restart 113, on mirror - 111
Guild of Mages rebuilding is ENABLED on all maps. There are no restrictions on using the library.
Any changes to the game rules are allowed with mutual agreement between players, except for the Fair Play rule.
Additional rules for maps:
Diamond The participant who receives red after the bidding removes the extra (ninth) castle. If the castles are identical, then red removes one castle first, and blue removes the second.
Anarchy Difficulty 200%. Played without HW_rulez enabled.
Ёлка L+U Difficulty 160%. Only fast roads, chess timer: 19-8-1; !!No restart upon encounter!!

II. Organizational issues.
1. This is a fan tournament.
2. A prize pool is being formed in the tournament. Those who want to compete for the prize pool must make a contribution of 500 rubles. 50% will go to the prize pool, and 50% to support Wowa's family. This is not mandatory; those who want to play without making a contribution have that right. Those who do not want to pay a fee and fight for prizes but want to fully support Wowa's family with the entire amount – please feel free. Transfer the money to my Sberbank card or Kiwi (to get details, write to me on ICQ/VK/PM).
3. Tournament hosts and judges:
Tournament host: Dirty_Player (ICQ: 408722873).
Tournament judges: Wanted!!!
4. If it is impossible to resolve a controversial issue independently, the judges will seek help from AK.
The host has the right to make any changes to the regulations and rules during the tournament if necessary.
5. For each played match, participants must submit a report and confirmation in this thread, created automatically.
Saves of all matches must be saved until the end of the tournament and submitted upon first request by the tournament host or any member of AK.
6. Information about the progress of the tournament is updated as needed and is located at the beginning of this topic.
7. All games of the tournament go into the seasonal rating. The list of reports for the tournament is also located at the beginning of this topic.
8. The winner of the tournament receives the right to participate in the "Final Battle 12" tournament.

III. Dates.
All participants in the tournament must strictly adhere to the announced deadlines:
1. Immediately after the start of the next stage or round, contact your opponents for preliminary arrangements for the games. To agree means to come to an agreement after negotiations and discussion. An offer without a response will not be considered an agreement.
2. Any temporary problems (with internet, trips, personal) must be reported to the tournament hosts.
3. The preferred time for tournament games is daytime (12-24 Moscow time) on weekends and evening (19-24 Moscow time) on weekdays. If a participant cannot play at this time, the absence of a game result will be interpreted by the host in favor of his opponent.
4. Players who disappear from the tournament - are placed on the blacklist.

Registration - May 23 - June 5, 2018.
Draw - June 6, 2018.
Start of the tournament - June 6, 2018.

IV. Regulations.
Olympic system, single elimination. First rounds BO1, starting with the quarterfinals and further BO3.
