Tournament "Long way" Hota
An analogue of a popular tournament on Sod; it is being held for the first time on the Heroes version Horn of the Abyss.
Rules
1. The tournament will be played on the latest version of HotA + the latest version of the HD mod; tournament rules are enabled in all templates.
2. Standard rules for HotA apply.
3. Tournament format: Double Elimination, BO1 preliminary and first round in the upper bracket, then BO3 until the final, the final starts with a score of 0-0, BO1 in the lower bracket.
The draw will be based on the current HW rating from 4 brackets to maximize separation between favorites.
4. Players may, by mutual agreement, make any changes to the rules, but the templates must be XL+U.
5. For each game played, participants must submit a report and confirmation in this thread, created automatically.
Saves of all games must be saved until the end of the tournament and submitted upon request from the tournament organizer or any member of the AC (Administration Committee).
6. The preferred time for games is daytime (12-24 Moscow time) on weekends and evening (19-24 Moscow time) on weekdays. If a participant cannot play at that time, the absence of a game result will be interpreted by the organizer as a win for their opponent.

8. Templates:
6lm10a, mt_Andromeda, spider, 8xm12b, nostalgia
On the Nostalgia template, fast roads are used; the rules for choosing castles are the same as on the mini-nostalgia template.
On the 8xm12b template, medium roads are used.
On the mirrored mt_Andromeda template, restarts are 111.
All templates have a timer of 21:00+08:00+01:15
9. In a BO1 series, the choice of template is made in the standard way. The loser flips a coin to determine who chooses first.
In BO3 series, there are special rules for choosing a template. In the first game, the standard method is used. In the second game, the played template is removed from the list; the loser of the first game chooses first (i.e., removes one more template). If the score is 1:1, there are no longer two played templates left in the third game, and the winner of the second game chooses first.
10. City selection is done by trading from a pair of random cities. If two identical castles are generated, they must be regenerated. Each player has the right to regenerate the city pair once at their own discretion, paying 500 coins to their opponent. At the same time, the player who pays 500 gold can impose a ban on generating one of the cities.
11. Total restarts are 3 days (111+111+111 or 111+112 or 113)
Tournament format.
1. Registration from April 21st to May 12th, 2019.
2. Draw and start on May 13th.
3. For BO3 series, the deadline is 4 weeks; for BO1 series, it's 2 weeks.
4. The final BO3 starts with a score of 0-0.
Good luck to all players.
