Posts from 1st annual offline tournament "Best Of The Best"
I think you should play through the map in draft mode first, and then gradually refine it into the final version, replaying any battles that didn't go well...));))
I disagree again. So, I'll learn about all the heroes and what they have, but what then? Knowing that a certain hero is allowed on the map, do I have the right to use load/save to find him? The answer is obvious – I do! And can I use the "digger" tool while doing that? The same applies – it's allowed. But do I have the right to use cheat codes during a clean playthrough? No. What's the conclusion? Cheat codes and the "digger" tool are different things. The only thing I agree with you on is that all this digging, load/saving, and replaying turns is tedious and uninteresting, but it greatly affects the result in offline play. On this map, I replayed it several times, and I only rewound by one day at most. I also replayed battles for a long time, which is also not very pleasant, but it's more interesting than constantly using load/save to dig something up.
No, no, no! I didn't even talk about using cheat codes in a clean playthrough. Such players should be :smile10:. I meant using cheat codes during a rough draft playthrough! I don't use them! Although I understand that without them, I'll never be able to take first place, unfortunately:(. Although once I managed to do it, I was just lucky:)
The point is that I find difficult battles much more interesting (sometimes I get nervous and smoke. Example with a surprise:) than constantly using load/save, digging, or codes.
Dear Tournament Participants! The winner of the 1st offline tournament, Best of the Best, esteemed Dmitriy_A_S, has kindly agreed to upload all his save files on our forum:
Fulfilling my obligations to the tournament organizer and to you, esteemed tournament participants, I have uploaded the first 10 save files (there is a limit of 10 per message, page 23, post #675). I will attach the remaining files to this and subsequent messages...
No, no, no! I wasn't even talking about using cheat codes in the final version. Players who do that should be :smile10:. I meant using cheat codes during a rough playthrough! I don't use them! Although I understand that without them, it's impossible to take first place, unfortunately:(. Although once I did, I got lucky:)
I didn't quite understand what you meant when you talked about cheat codes. And you don't need to, especially since you were a tester and also edited the map. Well, it's practically a commandment to explore everything in the first week, especially since it seems no one noticed the meteors. So what if you save time on scouting because you're the organizer? But we, the rest, save time on organizing the tournament and dealing with other related issues - so the conditions are equal in this case, both for the organizers and map creators, and for the players. It's much easier to do scouting than to spend time digging. I understand that at some point I played as just a player and not as an organizer, and I probably still didn't use scouting. Well, that's bad :) And now that you don't really need scouting, you don't want to dig a little - that's also bad, it will affect the result (it would be better). Don't think that you're in any better conditions than everyone else. You've made things a bit confusing here. The conclusion is this: organizers and map creators spend time on organization - they save on scouting. Players - on the contrary - save on organization - they'll spend a little time on scouting. Now everyone is equal. Whether to dig or not - that's a separate issue. And I think - everyone should dig, but everyone is the master of their own fate :)

Thank you, of course, but how many saves are actually needed? It turns out I asked for too little :) Here's the burden of being a winner :) Damn it - I realized - did they ask for daily saves? Jeez, it would have been better to ask for the saves right before the battles, they would have been more interesting and useful for everyone :)
Wow! That's a constructive approach :) Then prepare the package – send your hard drive to the leader – he'll fix everything for you, just kidding, a CD-R will be enough :) Or, when you say ALL saves, do you mean the saves I asked for?
Mozay;59317NO !!!! I MEANT !!!! ALL SAVES !!!!Listen, Mozay... why are you always shouting, damn it... ;) Your ears aren't government-issued or something... :D
Can you not use capital letters and bunches of exclamation marks in posts, huh? Sorry for the off-topic, but to be honest - I'm fed up with your outbursts... There are rules of interaction between dialogue participants - do not use profane language, avoid red font, capital letters, exclamation marks, and an excessive number of emojis in unofficial messages... Exceptions are children under 13 and people with low self-esteem (they feel that they aren't seen, aren't heard, and everyone is ignoring them)... Try using standard graphics. I apologize if I offended you - that wasn't the goal... ;)
:) I have 200 MB of saves for this map, and the winner might have even more. He's probably uploading them right now. But that's not everything, is it? So, what do you mean?
:) I have about 200 MB of saves for this map, and the winner might have even more. He's probably saving every few minutes. But that's not everything, is it? What do you mean?
Well, for starters, I would just tell him that a more or less serious player makes about 10 saves a day, which means 36 days - at least 360 saves... :) It's quite possible that the esteemed Mosaic thinks that there are only 5-7 saves per game, and therefore demands ALL the saves, which, as it turns out later, he won't even be able to download...
For now, you can solve my little puzzle to pass the time;)
-and what puzzle is that? hmm:smile26:

no, I mean one save per day, final!!!! and I already downloaded the first ten that the winner uploaded!!!! I'm waiting for others!!!!:smile22:
That’s the point – for me, challenging battles are much more interesting (sometimes I get nervous and start smoking. An example with a surprise:).
Such battles are probably interesting to everyone. By the way, I managed to complete your surprise battle after about 15 attempts, losing only Death Knights and 3 bears. Thank you for providing such an interesting save.
