Gentlemen, comrades, friends, I would really not want this issue to turn into an argument. Everyone has the right to express their opinion, and everyone's opinion may be different. The only thing I don't accept is when someone starts to subtly mock another's opinion, implying their own exceptional correctness. Therefore, in any case, I allow for the possibility of changing the map size to a huge one, if this circumstance actually suits both parties, and whether it suits them is up to each individual to decide! And to put all the dots on the i's, I inform the participants that the priority remains the size "very large" without a dungeon.

I request that my application be withdrawn from the tournament.
The request has been granted, and as a result:
1. Changes have been made to the group composition. In group D, the player with the nickname cJIaBa, who withdrew, has been replaced by the player with the nickname Aeteros from group B. Accordingly, the player with the nickname Kolobokk has been added to group B.
2. The number of points awarded to the player with the nickname Smerti Po has been changed from 4 to 2, as he is the only one in the group who played a personal game with the player with the nickname cJIaBa, who withdrew
I have a question for the judge: let's say a situation arises – I refuse to play on the "very large without metro" size, as I believe that the map becomes subpar (if anyone needs it, I can easily list the reasons why this happens, and these are not just empty words, but with examples). And the opponent refuses to play on a larger size – what will the judge do?
It will probably be like in the traffic police. Whoever has priority goes first. And the judge clearly established the priorities in his previous post.

so, sir, we might be in for a terrible match in the 1/4 finals.
I don’t think this issue can be resolved amicably, so I suggest the following solution to avoid any resentment. If players have fundamentally different opinions about the map size (considering that a very large map is still a large map), a draw will be held. The opponents assign even or odd numbers to the sizes themselves, and each of them sends me the numbers 0 or 1 via ICQ, respectively. I will then add them up and announce the sum, which can be either even or odd. Accordingly, if the sum is odd, an odd size will be generated; if the sum is even, an even size will be generated. It’s quite simple.
It's completely unclear why so many people are left on a large and resource-rich map... Dwarves are somewhat understandable – at least there's a reason, as Dwarves don't have logistics. But why leave the Humans?
Due to the withdrawal of player Aeteros from the tournament, a replacement will be made in group "D". After submitting an official application, player barma21 will be added to the list of participants.
Please advise what to do.
We can't load a previously saved game.
First, it said that my opponent (Mopdas) is not mentioned in the game, and after I sent him the map and saves, it started saying that the sum doesn't match, error code 0.2.0... see the screenshot.
As an external factor, I'll mention that Mopdas recently reinstalled Windows, and during that time, I managed to play with another opponent (I took the saves out of the folder for the duration of the game and now I've put them back in).

You need to archive your maps and usermods folders and send them to your opponent. And he, in turn, should delete his folders and then extract yours. The point is that these folders should be identical for both of you.
I don't understand what's so good about Gnomes here? Or am I missing something? And why are Mages rarely left alive?
Gnomes are good in many ways, but it's difficult to play with them on a large map due to the low percentage of luck... in general, I think that this is exactly the reason why they are often left behind, and as for the fact that Mages are "rarely left alive";) I think they are simply quickly eliminated by both opponents; it's a tricky race.
In general, I think the most interesting tournaments are those with a completely random setup. In the qualifying round, you can even ban restarts with this kind of gameplay. Then, with Leha's new mod, you can use random settings and also set a starting resource or artifact.

Not mentioned - means the save file is corrupted for that person. Send the save file. This is probably the first thing that needs to be checked. Sum mismatch - means one of the players has a mod installed (e.g., TE). Remove it.

With large armies and the ability to develop for 3+ weeks, Dwarves are actually quite good because runes are powerful. The machines are what allow 99% of players to successfully start a game for any castle, but the main drawback is their logistics. Mages are an unstable race, but very dangerous due to their mini-arts, which can adjust the potential of the army in any direction, plus the universal spell and the artifact shop, and of course, Gremlins against any artillery and the overpowered Hafiz (as an additional hero, especially if you rotate him a couple of times during the game).
