Dear friends!
Due to the numerous disputes and negative opinions regarding the rules and organization of the "Knights of Honor" tournament, I propose that we hold a discussion involving all interested parties about the future of this tournament.
Since Firelord will not be able to make decisions about the future of the tournament that he created, I will take on the task of giving the tournament a new life...
I will not abandon the idea of holding the tournament...(because few people will want to take on the mess that it has become...) I ask for your support and feedback...
Regarding the participants who have already completed the first stage, these are:
VDV_forever
Ta Kotoraya
fanat
nprf
I take my hat off to you and say, well done, guys! Despite all the disputes, you spent your personal time and played... However, I do not see a future for the tournament with only 4 participants, who may also drop out in the future... I sincerely apologize to you; I don't know what I can do to earn at least some respect from you... but ask for whatever you want, and I will try to help; I owe you...
But I will tell you, I am tired of apologizing for this tournament, which turned out not as planned... A great, bright idea has turned into a burnt match...
But I still believe that after all the failures, we will come together to find the right solution... for a new beginning for the tournament... yes, I understand that you may no longer have the strength or time for this... but please try! And for now, my signature will be a reflection of what I believe in and pursue: LET THE TOURNAMENT LIVE, but what kind of tournament? That is for us to decide together!

If I learn how to create scripts and upload save files, I'll participate. The same problem prevented me from participating last time...

This and much more is what we need to decide together. I have notified many people, so there should be quite active discussions... By the way, the previous experiment was on the SoD version and similar... So, we need to choose a version together. All of this is being done so that you can make your suggestions, and the tournament will be created based on them... So that there are many participants and they are satisfied... :)

Message from Nowizard

If someone teaches me how to take screenshots and upload saves. The same problem prevented me from participating last time...

My friend, if this is all that is stopping you, then it is very simple... Screenshots are taken by simply pressing PrintScreen, then you can open, for example, Paint and just paste the image - save...
And saves can be sent by email, after archiving them... and that's it... So, offer ideas on how to hold the tournament. Everything is in our hands... We will do what we will play ourselves :)

Hmm, I like the idea of such a tournament. If someone helps me and explains everything (because I often get confused), then I'm in. I don't like dog racing, and this idea suits me. Let's develop it and bring it to life. Long live the bunny-eared ones.

But I will tell you, I am tired of apologizing for this tournament, which turned out differently than I had envisioned... A great, bright idea has turned into a burnt match...
But I still believe that, after all the failures, we will come together and find the right solution... for a new beginning for the tournament... yes, I understand that you may no longer have the strength or time for this, but please try! And for now, my signature will be a symbol of what I believe in and strive for: THE TOURNAMENT MUST LIVE, but what kind of tournament? That is for us to decide together!

First of all, I played not in spite of the disputes, but in spite of the participants' unwillingness for me to play here!!!
Because I believe that in order to change something, you need to participate.

In principle, I am in favor of creating a new tournament, rather than continuing this one.

In addition, I will only play if saves are made on version 3.2 or higher, including TE! I looked at this "complete collection 4.0" and was horrified: (:(:(
It's a nightmare; bugs from all versions have been combined and now appear no matter what game you play! :mad: :mad: :mad:
But I don't know what to do for the unfortunate owners of 4.0; it can't be patched properly. It starts crashing.

Now, about the rules.
Everyone should have the opportunity to play! The participants should be those who submitted saves. I propose to significantly reduce the time allowed to complete the tasks.
Play for days, not for points, at least.
Play only once. No "scouting"! We will keep the ban on cheat codes and viewing the map. The ban on using bugs in the game and on the map is mandatory!
If someone can't do it in one try, then they can't; you can play any number of tasks.

The start of the second tournament should be no earlier than, but no later than, the beginning of November.

Let's first formulate the idea.
As I understand it, the essence is to play without replays or scouting.
Everything else is just details.
If that is the idea, then I am ready to support it.
However, we need to immediately reduce the time spent on each game. It is unrealistic to think that those who played for all 40 days did so because they lacked time. Just look at the activity on the forum to doubt this.
Second, switch to TE (The Editor), where you can ban cheat codes altogether, which means that if there is no map, scouting will be impossible.
And third, complete openness of the tournament - everyone who wants to play can participate.
It would be desirable to have a greater variety of tasks and abandon playing for points - but this is not the most important thing.
The key question is the judging of the tournament.
It would be better if at least one final save from each participant was posted on the forum for verification using programs to detect cheating! I can ask Natasha; she will not refuse to check the saves.

P.S. I suggest changing the poll! If it were for a new tournament, maybe. But as it is, I will not answer - I was simply not accepted here!!!

A tournament is a good thing. But since there is no clear decision yet regarding the format, I cannot give a definitive answer about participating. However, if a discussion starts, I will contribute as much as I can.

No, I won't. I already submitted an application for one tournament, but I couldn't participate. When I'm studying, I'm not at home, which means I don't have access to the game or the internet! (Maybe in the summer or during winter break).

I'm generally in favor! :) I just don't have 3 heroes yet, but I should have them soon. And also: where can I download the version of the game required for the tournament?:confused:

We haven't decided which version of the game the tournament will be held on yet! I'm in favor of Armageddon's Blade...

My DESIRE to participate in the tournament outweighs my IGNORANCE of all its technical aspects. And therefore, I have decided to take part in the second stage anyway (purely out of sporting interest). Having almost finished the map, I still don't know how things will unfold further: what happens at the arena, and how will they judge? And in general... WHAT should I do with my version? I have the so-called NPRF "Complete Collection (of bugs... :))". Over the weekend, I rushed out and bought MYSELF ANOTHER Heroes Anthology (now I have two of them... :)), where I found SoD, although it's version 2.0! So what should I do: keep this ill-fated 4.0 collection, upgrade SoD from 2.0 to 3.2, or just install TE (TE can be installed on WoG, right?)? And my WoG is also only version 3.2..... In short, it's a disaster.... Who can tell me which direction to dig in?
I'm not afraid of difficulties, and I WANT and WILL participate in the Tournaments!

Thanks in advance!
