Greetings to all Heroes 3 fans ready to fight for the title of the strongest on HW. This time, I have decided to run this tournament using the classic scheme that was proven back in the very first tournament.
FB-7.QUALIFIERS.
I. Regulations and Deadlines The qualifying tournament will be held according to the Swiss system (5 or 7 rounds, depending on the number of participants) Tournament Start: March 01, 2013. Time limit per round - 2 weeks. 7 players advance to the final stage. (If there are fewer than 32 players, then 5 players)
II. Rules and Templates. 1. By default, games are played according to the Rules for online games in Heroes III and the seasonal Player Rating tournament. 2. By default, the game version is SoD 3.2 (4.0); by mutual agreement, WT or any other HOMM3 version. 3. The template for each round will be assigned by the organizer (or chosen randomly) 4. Castle selection - standard check. Check starts as blue. Colors are designated during the draw and do not change during restarts. 5. The draw will be made by the SwissMaster program. 1 point is given for a win, 0.5 for a draw, 0 for a loss. The winner is determined by the number of points earned. In case of a tie in points, additional indicators apply. 1) Buchholz Coefficient
The method of determining places in competitions among participants who have scored an equal number of points, based on the Buchholz coefficient, was proposed in 1932 and named after its inventor – chess player Bruno Buchholz. The Buchholz coefficient of a particular participant is composed of the sum of all points of the opponents that the participant played against, regardless of the result of the meetings between them. The idea is that a Participant who played stronger opponents (opponents who scored more points in total) is awarded a higher final place.
2) Head-to-head encounter
III. Organizational Matters 1. The tournament is official and regular. 2. The tournament is conducted according to the Rules for organizing, conducting, and participating in tournaments. 3.

If the situation that has arisen is not regulated by the rules, the judges are guided by basic logic and gaming ethics. 7. All tournament games go into the seasonal rating. Reports and confirmations are written in this thread and will be copied to the "Reports of online games and their confirmations" thread. That is, you do NOT need to duplicate reports in the season thread.

The seventh round is played on the BIG Nostalgia (XL+U) map. All random Change of color with every subjective restart. Mandatory restart if one road leads to ГО or ГО is not by the road. The deadline for round 7 is until 16.06.13 inclusive. Good luck to all!
Is the second one necessarily the sequential number? :spk:
What kind do you want? :) favio
I have two noob questions: 1. What templates? 2. Is ICQ mandatory?
1. The templates can be any, both well-known and not so much. 2. Yes, it is mandatory. If your opponent doesn't have Skype, how are you going to contact them? Through Hamachi or on the forum?

By the way, is it possible without a satellite connection? What is the buy-in?
