My suggestion was to allow Hardcore players to play against a bot; this is better than automatically assigning them to a team (although that's also fine).

However, the approach with Techwin is somewhat unfair to other players, as he essentially played one game less than the rest.
If a bot deliberately plays to win, in order to deny the opponent the right to advance, and it doesn't care about the result at all, it will only mean that it is a complete jerk.
But this is really nonsense.
Все в ней нулево и кукольно.
This is truly absurd.
Give an example, at least, of a sport where the participation of bots is accepted?
A boxer got sick. How is that possible? His opponent will advance to the final for free!!! Nothing terrible, to prevent such injustice, Nikolai Valuev steps in as a bot. And if, by chance, he wins, then the sick boxer advances to the final. :D Is that normal?
In a situation where there are no arguments, and this will do. :D

But you really went wild with the Valuev example...

And, most importantly, it's bad when those with only a vague understanding of the tournament's progress start arguing.
At the moment, the argument is pointless.
The current situation is as follows:
- Gomunguls with 6 points is definitely in the Top 8.
- That leaves 2 spots open. Players with 4.5 points cannot qualify.
- FireToSky with 5 points has already qualified from the 2010 tournament.
- There are four players left – those who, depending on the outcome, could score between 4 and 6 points (no result for Captain - Hardcore+ yet):
Dubrovin Pavel - 4.5 or 5 points - if he is awarded 5 points, he won't qualify based on tiebreakers, as his tiebreaker score is very low due to games against Kostya, Vitya, and Loser.
Volland - has a clear 5 points and a high tiebreaker score.
Regardless of the scoring method, Volland and the winner of Captain - Hardcore+ will likely qualify.
Let's wait for the match to finish, and then we'll think about it (well, if anyone wants to shout, argue, or conduct pointless polls, it won't influence my decision).

And that's probably the right approach. I myself stuck to my point of view, but as has been repeatedly stated, there is no perfect solution, because it's a Swiss-system tournament. So, refer to the regulations, point 8, if my memory serves me correctly...

8. Players with a "Cheater Mark" are not allowed to participate in the tournament. If any player receives a "Cheater Mark" during the tournament, they will be disqualified, and their results will be annulled. The organizers will decide on a case-by-case basis whether players on the "Black List" can participate in the tournament.
RESULTS WILL BE ANNULLED!!! Is there even a single word about technical issues???? Fine, I'm tired of arguing; if you want to use technical exploits, go ahead; a precedent has been set!
there is still no ideal solution, because of the Swiss system
Where the hell were you all a week ago, defenders???
When I posted that result, which you are now arguing about? Where?
