Posts from The 8th stage of the annual John Van Caneghem Tournament (2007).

There, unlike in HW, the prevailing opinion is that the leader owes nothing to anyone during the verification process except to the organizer – it's considered that the intricacies of the playthrough are their personal intellectual property. And the organizer can request a public description at their discretion. And sometimes they ask for a description from players who aren't even the leaders.

Personally, I also adhere to this position - if you want to share your tricks with the people, do so; if not, then it is your right.
Regarding our Tournament, the leader could have explained how he managed to complete it in a week, or at least outlined the idea. And the organizer, with his authority, confirms that the saves have been accepted, which means everything is fine. If you don't trust the organizer, don't play... Another question is whether you can ask the leader to tell, but in no case should you demand it...

Our portal has a certain educational bias only because of the lower (average) level of players compared to HP.

There, no one asks questions about how to defeat a legion of dwarves with a butterfly or why diplomacy is needed... :) And as for super results, there is very rarely a situation where one player does something amazing that no one has thought of (as was the case in the current Tournament) - that's why no one demands "saves for the barrel!"

That's all the explanations... Some may not like my position, but I say what I think.

As for the super results, it's very rare for one player to achieve something extraordinary that no one else thought of (as happened in the current tournament) – that's why no one is demanding "save scumming!"
That's all the explanation... Maybe some people won't like my position, but I'm saying what I think.

And another thing: maybe there are more super players on other portals, but it's easier to learn here.

I think both Amber and Iron are right!
The fact that the results of the leaders are being discussed here is definitely a plus. But also: demanding (and I mean demanding) a detailed explanation is not acceptable! This is truly intellectual property.
And another thing: maybe there are more super players on other portals, but it's easier to learn here. That is, our players progress faster.

Amber!
Organize some kind of mini-tournament for 2-3 weeks (before the beginning of November). You did a great job with the blitz. You can have an assistant. Let it be unofficial. And the map can be standard. It doesn't matter.
There's still so much time before the beginning of November!!!!
I don't want to have to get back into it again - it's hard to get back into the swing of things (even though there's a lot of everyday stuff, but I can still find some time). I think many will be "for" it.

At the moment, talking about the superiority of HP players over ours means living in the past. More precisely, it means staying in the middle of last autumn.

I keep forgetting to ask – why weren't vampires replaced by mercury creatures in Stronghold? What if that parameter would have decided everything? Would you be regretting it now? Although, as one of my friends says, sometimes only the worst things happen...

And this time, I was too lazy to participate in the tournament at first – I thought I would have time later... and in the end, I didn't find the time... ABSOLUTELY...

I think you mean the moment when Prorock, Paladin, nprf... left the portal. This loss still resonates today, although much has changed since then.

"Inconstancy, your name is woman!"

...there was a system of "clouds" that was supposed to punish bullies and those who used foul language, but moderators use it to silence those they don't like. That's all. I don't want to hear anything more about it. :)
