New here? I'm Roha — want a quick tour?
It's a pity that due to this situation, Mareti will advance to the final without a fight. I also have to withdraw from the tournament. Thank you, Pete, for the interesting and exciting games, and for the heroic spirit in them.
I believe it is wrong and unacceptable for the main contenders to withdraw. This could ruin the tournament and show disrespect to the organizers and viewers.
I'll play Captain here.
I didn't have time to write, Wicc was faster. But I'll add (I think many will agree). Those who watched the online broadcasts until late at night (like me) are now, to put it mildly, "confused" (shocked, in Russian). This is not the way to do it; why even participate in the tournament? Everyone understands force majeure – that's real life, but this... What if Maretti withdraws, claiming that the tournament didn't determine the strongest player? And then what??? Should all the results be annulled? Interest in the tournament will disappear...
Red, honestly, grow up a little, and then tell the guys what's nonsense and what isn't.
For me, something inexplicable happened when, in our only tournament match, you took the auto-pilot, because you couldn't get the Utopia. I thought you had some kind of trouble-loss, but you took the Utopia with a lot of extra power, which I was supposed to take on my turn, and that ultimately decided the outcome of the game. Since then, everything you write is text that doesn't deserve serious attention.
