There will be no strict player numbering as there was in the clan war. People live on different schedules and in different time zones, so sometimes it was extremely difficult for them to coordinate.
Therefore, any team player, after checking the opponent's roster, can challenge any player from the opposing team. Of course, it would be better if team captains agree on who plays whom before the round. If an agreement cannot be reached, then it is "referee's discretion": the player listed first by the team captain plays against the similarly listed player of the other team.
For example, in the round 1 match between "Iron Crocodiles" and "Forest Sanitarians", Uran will play Mizrael, Dudge will play scorp, and HYVET will play Nagan-4.
After playing a game, the player writes a report and duplicates it in this thread to make counting team wins easier. In the end, the team that achieves more victories over other teams will win. If, for example, two teams earn an equal number of points—say, 5 wins and one loss each—then an additional metric is used: the total number of individual player wins in the tournament.

Game deadlines. Players of the team listed first all play as red. This means that everyone will have to play three "red" and three "blue" games in the tournament.

I wrote this only for convenience in determining opponents by round: you can play as written, or you can make a reshuffle.

The table will be made a bit later.

Added after 4 hours 44 minutes
For now, the following questions have arisen during the tournament.
1. Regarding the draw - who plays which color.
To make it easier - players whose team is listed first in the round ALL (!) play as red in that round. Since everyone has to play 6 games, it works out to be 3 as red and 3 as blue.

2. How to find your opponent. See the first post. Message the player you'd like to play for rating via ICQ; if you see they haven't played anyone from your team in the tournament yet - then play, after checking who plays which color.
You don't have to wait for the start of round 5 or 6; you can play in advance and post the result here.
Given that the vast majority of participants know each other well, there should be no problems with this.

It's clear there's no point in playing, your team has already won the match, and the result is displayed in the table.
P.S. My ICQ is easy to find, it's even written at the very top of this page.

The opponent used up all the restarts and, seeing that the mines are behind the mountain and it would take 4 days to get there, decided not to continue. It's a shame that we didn't get to see a real fight.
Thanks for the game.

Uran, Swamp of Tazar - Vitalic, Tower Nela (DRAW)
We played for two evenings, 5 hours each, with a break in between. Another week has passed since then - this match isn't particularly important, so we decided to call it a draw.
I have a Tank with 300 mana and a 1.5k explosion attack + gloves + boots, but Nela has an army four times larger, and our stats are roughly equal.

"Alcoholics Anonymous" def "Forest Orderlies"
invisible (blue, Barbarian, Gurnisson, Gurnisson) def Nagan-4 (red, Tower, Aine, Gervulf) 2sm4d(3) 147
In the first week, bears in the castle (the external market helped a lot), from external dwellings only orcs, but never took them due to distance. On the second, I broke into the underground via rough terrain, took a secondary Inferno there, gave Monere the entire army so he could retrieve 2 treasure chests and return the troops to Gurni, who planned to go to the surface, where he saw a Hive, a Dwarf Cottage, and treasure chests. Red flags immediately pop up, I retreat back. The secondary was taken from me :( . I break through to the surface, take the Dwarf Cottage, a mini Hive for 80 mummies. Red's Gervulf holed up in the secondary with all the army. After taking the Dwarf Cottage, I bring up all troops and position myself at the entrance to the underground. Next turn, Gervulf rushed to the Treasury, where a Hive was visible, and went for a speed clear, giving all troops to Aine. I kill Aine, then chase away Red's folder, take a Hive for 6 Wyverns. Meanwhile, the noob revealed half of Red's respawn from a tower, spotting there a bunch of Dwarf Cottages, a Naga Bank, and 2 conservatories, one of which was right by the road. Meanwhile, Gurni takes 3 Naga Banks, a Medusa dwelling, breaks into the secondary to go on the offensive. In the second week, I build everything, including Cyclopes. In the third, Efreeti in the secondary (Nagan-4 kindly built a Citadel there :)). On the 4th, I take a max conservatory on the opponent's respawn, take two Dwarf Cottages, a Naga Bank, and capture Gervulf's main castle. On 147, a level 5 mage with 100 mana takes the last castle, I take an external Naga dwelling. Yegor surrenders.
Thanks for the game!

"Alcoholics Anonymous" def "Forest Orderlies"
Decontaminator (blue, Conflux, random, Labetha, Ignissa, resource) def Scorp (red, Castle, Valeska, Vokial, art) 2sm4d (3) 142
Started without restarts. Roads are slow, air elementals are not built, but 2 native heroes (one of them is Zellar) and a crypt right under the castle - we play.
On week 1, days 1-7 in the fort, 2 minimum crypts taken(((, sword +3, mana amulet +1, little gold, only 4 heroes running around, but Mama is level 7 with expert attack, earth magic, advanced artillery. On day 117 Zellar kills a scout hero at an adjacent swamp respawn.
On week 2 +1000 gold, market, castle upgrade and +1000 gold, Mage Guild, market in the secondary Swamp town. A minimum crypt taken, 2 minimum dwarf treasuries, an external dwelling of water elementals. Mama, having bought a cannon and a First Aid Tent at the workshop, breaks through home, and with 2 phoenixes and oil solves the week 2 task. The task is to earn gold for upgrading the castle and recruiting troops and to break through the GO the following week. Since Mama moved very slowly, I had to give up clearing the swamp respawn, where there were 2 Griffin Conservatories, 2 hives, an external Wyvern dwelling, and a golden bow.
On week 3 Mama visited the circus, treasuries for 200 imps, 40 and 20 medusas taken. Upgrade of storm elementals and ice elementals, GO is broken through (up to 100 horned demons), a Griffin Conservatory for 3 angels is taken, on day 137 the red capital is taken. Several scout heroes killed and driven away.
On day 142, esteemed Scorp congratulated me on the victory.
Thank you for the game and the experience.

Round 7.
"Forest Sanitaries" - "Anonymous Alcoholics"
Mizrael(replaced by scorp) - vbn

scorp (red, Stronghold, Gurnisson, Gurnisson) def vbn (blue, Castle, Valeska, Valeska) 2sm4d(3) 133

Used both restarts in the main due to the lack of a cannon.
At 112 I revealed the territory, 2 roads: one led to the metro, the second to the grass (but not ГО) - so I wasn't in a hurry for secondary objectives, and there was another reason not to rush - I had nothing left; lost 2 birds and 5 orcs on butterflies along with the hero (a funny situation occurred - I killed all the non-upgraded butterflies and then got upset that I lost my army and hero in the end - the hero vanished, but took the remaining upgraded butterflies with him):smile12:
At 115 I saw a Bear external dwelling (as always - I don't mind, they are my kin after all, what can I do, I have to take it) - but there was only 1 Bear in the army (the rest were lost), however there was time to bring a couple of goblins (Gurnisson level 3: 10 1 1 1 with advanced cannon and basic logistics). Brought 6 goblins and took the external dwelling. Result of the week 1-7 without 3,4 and 6 in the castle + behemoth external dwelling.
At the start of the second, I rode from the stables to the medusa nest (by 6), nagobank (by 3) and into the metro; there was an immediate overview and on the next turn (125) a cons for 3 angels, Pandora for 35 witches (just right for my Dragon Utopia at my respawn) and the blue's scout flew past my scout. For a couple or three turns, a fierce war of scouts took place, and with what armies: on my side in the first battle 1 angel - Vitaly had (Nella with 20 mana and ice bolt) 8 swords, 40+ pokemons and 3 monks (whom I mowed down at the cost of an angel, but wasn't particularly upset); the second was hardly a battle: 1+1 angels went to talk about their designated relative - Nella ran away without a fight (or paid her way out). While the skirmishes between scouts were ongoing, Gurnisson beat back the Dragon Utopia guard (1CD) and took it at 131; they gave: only wings and 20k units. At 132 I flew over the rocks with 2 angels, 8 greys, 2 thunder birds, 2 cyclops, 7 dogs and 28 witches - not a bad haul?, well I wanted it, even though I had no tactics, but I had expert haste - after all, 8 greys. And on the next turn I attacked Vitaly's scout with an army, while Valya was hastened with 1 angel and Vitaly congratulated me on my victory.

Thanks for the game!

Dear friends. All tournament deadlines, planned and additional, have passed. Finally, I am summing up the results of the tournament.

1st place was taken by the team "Order of the Phoenix" (Vitalic, Vigo, rebellious, Piterius), who scored 5.5 team points, the players won 12 matches, and one match ended in a draw.

2nd place was taken by the team "Iron Crocodiles" (Uran, Dudge, Retro FM, HYVET), who scored 4 team points, the players scored 10.5 points.

These two teams took 1st and 2nd place in the previously held clan war, only then the Crocodiles were first.

3rd place was shared by three teams - "Anonymous Alcoholics", "Forest Sanitary Workers", and "Guardians of Illiara" - with three team wins each. I had to calculate additional indicators. The Sanitary Workers and Alcoholics have more points, 8 wins. The Guardians have 7.5 points scored by the participants.
In a head-to-head match between the Sanitary Workers and the Alcoholics (symbolically, they sometimes meet in real life), the Alcoholics won (and this is fantastic, in reality, good usually wins, i.e., the sanitary workers).

3rd place - "Anonymous Alcoholics" (Invisible, Dekontaminator, vbn).
4th place - "Forest Sanitary Workers" (Mizrael Scorp Nagan-4).
5th place - "Guardians of Illiara" (Neoandy, Dubrovin Pavel, Aldegir, kien, Izgoy767).

6th place - "Siberian felt boots" (Mike_HP, Dreamcather, Dirty_Player, Loi) - 1.5 team points, the players scored 4.5 points.
7th place - "Colorado beetles" (Pit - In sake of LM, Javdet, Colorado) - 1 team point, the players won 6 matches.

The felt boots and beetles were just unlucky. The Siberia team, possessing a strong lineup, gave away many points at the beginning.
The Colorado beetles caused great sympathy because they were always ready to play. All lost matches were hard-fought, and only bad luck prevented the team from climbing higher. The only team whose players I never had to remind about unscheduled games. With such a desire to play, victories will definitely come to you!

With this, the tournament is considered finished. Thank you very much to all the players for demonstrating high skill and sportsmanship.

In the wake of a departing train... But the engineer and passengers gave the go-ahead:)

Neoandy (red, Rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) draw Mike_HP (blue, Conflux, random, Lacus, Shakti) 2SM4D(3), 214

Mike took all the resets, I had one left on 113. Opened the scouting - see his castle - good. There's Lacus as expected without air elementals, but I have Ufretin as a second hero with Dwarves! Generally, I don't like Barbarian secondary skills - since I don't want to stumble on stones later, but here I got two of them and I decided I need to play. End of the week at home: Grand Elves, in secondaries: birds and in one: Bears. Economy at 1000. Then no money - not a single dwelling on 3 respawns, but small loot also replenished the treasury + slowly sold resources. Kyrre visits 2 Arenas, a Stable, and picks up Gloves. The luckies find 2 more Griffin Conservatories on the stones besides the 1 at home. 2 of them are for 3-4 Angels. A bit short on meat, no earth magic - but I need to take them - started with the third one - turned out to be the minimum, and then the 2 easier ones fell - 7 Angels - got more fun. And a treasury nearby is glowing. Week 2 - Bears with birds in upgraded dwellings, Elves upgraded. In the treasury, all Pandora's Boxes were for experience, while money was catastrophically short despite an income of 3700 per day. The opponent developed the economy to 6000 per day. Took a Dragon Utopia - Captain's Hat and Shield +12. Also forgot that tier 1 units will have 3 population and lost 6 birds and a bear due to anti-morale:smile39:. Now week 3 is coming to an end - the treasury is cleared - but the fun has waned - Shakti without a stack of Angels and birds at the start in the castle - will be hit by ГО :smile31:. Moved everyone to another treasury :smile17: for luck as they say. There I picked up a spotted artifact +3 morale, luck, and the presence of Wisps and others no longer bothered me. But the lack of money without a home bothered me. Fast roads quickly left me without secondary heroes. Shakti, as it turned out, has a whole 15 Angels!!!:smile24: Didn't level Wisdom in time - needed something else, and now there are only Pandora's Boxes and no Dragon Utopias. One Pandora gives Earth magic :smile39:. Then eventually Kyrre reached a Dragon Utopia - Sword +5. Doesn't save me. But then another Dragon Utopia and there's an Orb and Tome of Earth! The luckies bring an earth booster and Implosion is already 3000! Now I need to get home in time and replenish mana. Kyrre was level 25 by this time!. The opponent had Dimension Door, but no Town Portal which gave hope. I had Town Portal - but nowhere to go :D . And Dimension Door lay the whole game next to a secondary hero. I manage by the end of the days to sit in a secondary hero with replenished mana and higher stats! I grabbed Shackles of War along the way, just in case the opponent realizes things are bad. And so it happened! Expert Resistance worked on Wisps and Bears against a similar Berserker, and my Implosion wiped out one stack per round. Fire elementals came into play, I brought out Earth elementals. I have a slight mana advantage. + a couple of lucky Meteor Showers on the Fire elementals. In short, victory was near. Mike is left with 1 stack of Fire elementals and I seem like I won't make it - I cast Implosion on them, forgetting to resurrect the Angels first :mad: Both heroes disappear. Only the blue turn continues! And the luckies almost take an empty castle! Phew, close call - I thought. And quickly to the Tavern for the main hero... But then another bug in the game, which plagued Mike and me throughout the whole game (I kept, besides 8 heroes on the map, also 1 in each castle) - heroes in castles were cloned and we had to find the bug moment and reload. And here Kyrre is not in the Tavern, although by all accounts she should be! + the hero on the right in the tavern when bought gives a critical error in the game... In short, we fussed and fussed, I have 60000 gold - I never found Kyrre from the left icon and the right one was glitching - maybe Kyrre sat on top, maybe just a bug. Agreed on a friendly draw.

Thanks for the game!

To catch the departing train... But the driver and passengers gave the go-ahead:)

Thanks for the game!

On the first turn I took 2 secondary dwellings, Rampart and Necropolis in the underground, and placed phoenixes in the fort. I immediately made Shakti the leader from day one. I got Earth quickly, but Logistics wasn't given for a long time. I gathered 5 fat cans for 15 angels, finally got Logistics, found boots in the underground, and bought gloves at the market. I took 2 Dragon Utopias in the underground; the first three-stack was decent, Air and Fire books and Titan armor with +10 to magic. But the second one-stack was completely empty, just water boots... I also took 2 external dwellings of devils. On the 4th week, I flew to the opponent, took all his castles without resistance, and waited; there was nowhere else to go. Kyri's stats totaling over 100 were very annoying. And as it turned out, he was given everything he needed: Earth book, shackles, and boosts... A well was also found on the way home. In the end, of course, both of us messed up terribly; the opponent didn't resurrect someone from his army, and I simply walked away from the castle like a fool the day before. Consequently, I couldn't reach the empty castle with victory using anyone. I still had enough troops left: 6 devils, a bunch of elves, some wyverns, a week's worth of bears and birds from 2 of the opponent's castles, and some other same. But as mentioned, the game was glitching heavily; at the end, it became unclear with Kyri's ransom, who not only didn't remain in the opponent's castle but didn't dig up at all for 60000 money. Otherwise, it would be unclear, much depended on where Kyri without troops would go and whether I could dig up Shakti. But since it seemed to be a bug, we agreed to a draw. Thanks for the game.
P.S. Interestingly, after the game we tested the situation where a hero fled and both were left with only elements; then both heroes ended up in the tavern, and if one hero died in this situation, even without shackles, both disappeared without a trace...
