Offline, focusing on collecting vampires...
Auto-translated
So, what's the status of the tournament? It seems like the topic has stalled for at least a week or two...
Nothing like that! :p
I just finished editing the map yesterday and immediately sent it to Kyle. We'll check it, test it..., but the foundation is already done ;). Soon, people, soon...:)
P.S. the tournament will still be about collecting liches ;)
I mean it from the bottom of my heart!
honestly speaking, the whole idea was ruined!!!!!
spoken from the heart!
something I didn't understand...:) What's the deal? Why so harsh? We're sensible people, right? Then let's just figure out what would be more interesting. Would you personally find it fun to sit in a Castle and press the "E" button? But with the use of the Cloak of the Undead King, a certain level of tactics and difficulty is added, i.e., you yourself improve your game ;). Damn, we're trying for your sake..., and you act like this...
I kind of don't get it... :) What's going on? Why so categorical? We're sensible people, right? So let's just figure out what would be more interesting. Do you yourself find it fun to sit in a Castle and press the "E" button? But with the use of the Cloak of the Undead King, a certain level of tactics and difficulty is added — meaning you'll improve your own game ;).

I don't think I did anything wrong to anyone. It just turned out that Sasha's idea wasn't recognized, and my own wasn't fully developed. I expressed my point of view!
Don't pay attention to it; the tournament will probably take place in the first quarter of 2008.
P.S.: A HUGE THANK YOU TO CAEL FOR JUST CRUSHING AND KILLING MY TOURNAMENT IDEA! AND I WAS SO HOPING FOR YOU... I TRUSTED YOU... THOUGHT YOU WOULDN'T DO THIS!
I think you have two grievances against me:
- changing the tournament goal, i.e. collecting not vampires, but liches.
- the tournament has not started yet
answering point by point:
- As I have already written before, collecting vampires on this map is not an interesting task for the player, because the entire tournament degenerates into simply pressing "end turn" to get the next vampire population. Liches can be collected in the same way as vampires + raising them with the Necromancy skill and Cloak of the Undead King, which adds much more interest to the game process. And I am 99% sure that the majority of people who actually participate in tournaments will support me.
- The tournament is not started now because there is already a triple tournament underway: that is "Race for the Leader", and tomorrow the annual tournament "Best of the Best" begins. Furthermore, if we look at the calendar, we will see that it is currently December, and therefore students are entering a stressful period, so starting a third tournament at this time would be to doom it to nobody playing it. Therefore, IMHO, this tournament should be held in the new year.
Of course, if you want, I can withdraw my candidacy from the role of host. i.e. You can run it yourself. But if you do not take these two points into account, you will not have a tournament.
Respectfully.
P.S. You know, it is unpleasant for me to hear such words from you, because I met you halfway, spent my time, tried to make sure the tournament was at the highest level... and then such words... it's just unpleasant on a human level. :(
Please don't be too harsh on me :), but I promise the tournament will happen!
Best regards, Ley.
Guys, I have to admit, I'm a bit embarrassed to say this: the idea that Alexander G.K. came up with for an inter-clan tournament hasn't died out, but it's taking longer than expected... quite a bit longer... (at least until mid-January). Please understand, I have very little personal time, and on top of that, there will also be a "best of the best" competition, plus a "race for the leader." So, probably after the "best of the best" is over...
Please don't be too harsh on me :), but I promise there will be a tournament!
Sincerely, Ley.
I couldn't help but remember Alexander G.K.'s tournament and ask:
The "best of the best" is over, and January is coming to an end, but the topic isn't progressing. So, when will the tournament be?
Why didn't we decide to hold a tournament? - Because at the same time as our plans, two other tournaments were already underway - "Race for the Leader" and "Best of the Best". At the moment, "Best of the Best" has ended, but the "Time of Change" tournament has begun... Well, there's simply no point in holding three Heroes III tournaments at the same time. Did you see the previous quorum for the "Race"? And I won't even mention that "Best of the Best" had the fewest final saves... We haven't forgotten our promise:), but we also don't want only 3-4 participants to play... I'm sure more than ten will sign up..., but how many will actually play... - you understand.
BUT the map and the starting save have been ready for a long time:), - we just have to wait a little longer...:)
Then there was no point in organizing it from the very beginning.
Organizing what? :) Did we organize something?
Since you have so many tournaments already.
The tournaments are not on our shoulders, but on yours :). If people are already signed up for other tournaments, will they still find time to play somewhere else?
You should have been prepared in advance.
I agree. But we are already ready ;) - this was mentioned in the post above, by the way...
Conclusion:
I just talked to Kyle, and we decided to start organizing the tournament. I will indicate the dates in the corresponding thread.
