09/16/2013 kalababa (blue, Inferno, Jeddite) def akella (red, Rampart, Coronius, Waleska) m200-balance 123
Second game, hidden pits, each player has 3 stacks of creatures. On turn 113, I take the hidden pit and split my army. Jeddite goes for chests and level-up spots, while the main force guards the gold mine. I get +1 speed, a sword with +2/+2, a scroll of haste, luck cards, and gloves. Jeddite moves to 121, rushing towards the center, but I lose a pit creature in the swamp! :((( I enter the center and take the scouting spell. The opponent is preparing to attack the center on the next turn, but it seems like liches are guarding it, so I'm not too worried. It will be tough against them, though. I don't see any point in going to the treasure, as it's too far away – it would take three days to travel through the desert. I keep an eye on the opponent. He breaks through, and I ambush him. Thanks for the game!

Confirmed,
thanks for the game.

Confirmed. I made a small mistake, but my opponent had a lot of hidden units on his home base, while I had a well-developed second Rampart, and in the Dungeon, either horses or dragons were summoned. In the center, I built angels and took two of his hidden spots.
Thanks for the game.

A question arose regarding playing with M-200 templates. As kalababa rightly pointed out, choosing specific castles and heroes on these templates ruins the game. Especially if strong castles and heroes are chosen, the likelihood of restarting due to unfavorable matchups increases.
It is recommended to play with random castles, but the opponents' colors change after each subjective restart. However, the participants have already figured out this situation. I'm just writing this here for clarification. :)

Regarding withdrawals from the tournament: real people participate in the Competitive event, and they are often upset after defeats. For example, amigo-sasha has already withdrawn from the tournament three times, but he continues to play. :) In short, everyone gets upset; I didn't register any undead for the tournament. You can take a week off and rest from the heroes; the round-robin system allows for this, and you can catch up later.
In the case of withdrawals from the competition: if the withdrawing participant has played less than half of the matches, the results of the games are annulled; if half or more of the matches have been played, the withdrawing player will be credited with losses in all remaining matches.

group #3. 09/18/2013 amigo-sasha (Red, Stronghold, Kreg-Hek, Clavius) def theShevanesian (Blue, Swamp, Vistan, Galtran) balance, 141
Took 2 restarts.
The respawn gave a small and poor area. The tavern had decent heroes: Clavius and Yabarqas with two stacks of orcs.
On the second day, Vidomina appeared, and I decided not to attack with two heroes. It was difficult because the lands were (Towers), so I moved slowly and spent a lot of time exploring the respawn area... Bold ideas play the role of vanguard pawns in the game: they die, but ensure victory.
The opponent broke the rules. He surrendered.
Thank you for the game

It happened. The map generated bugged; I got external dwellings of wyverns and basilisks, the opponent got orcs, but the gold was an absolute minimum. Somehow I jammed 12346 in the Citadel.
On the second week, I broke through to the middle zone, which was supposed to be a neutral connection with a sandy pre-treasure zone. But there was no exit to the sand, instead there was an unguarded exit to Inferno terrain, where a Dragon Fly Hive was visible. I crawled in there, took the Dragon Fly Hive, then a second one — and realized it was a treasure zone. Thanks for the game!

Stratte is absent; he hasn't responded in ICQ since the tournament started. We propose replacing him with another player, perhaps someone who wanted to participate but didn't manage to register.

Comrade Stratte is absent; since the tournament started, he hasn't replied in ICQ.. I propose replacing him with another player, for example, someone who wants to participate but didn't manage to register in time.

Indeed, Stratte's last activity on the forum was September 6th; he hasn't shown up in ICQ, I'm keeping an eye on this constantly.

Well then, let's outline the first disciplinary measure:
September 28th marks the end of round 2; all players must have played 2 games. Of course, I will take personal circumstances into account (such as JustObserver's). But I need to know about these circumstances.
If a player hasn't played a single game by September 28th, they will be disqualified from the tournament. So there's still a bit of time.

Regarding replacements, 42 participants signed up for the tournament, exactly enough for 6 groups, so there are no substitutes. If anyone wants to join the tournament on September 28th and play 6 games in 2 months, please reply here.
Now, a question for the players in group 4: does everyone agree to such a replacement? Please reply here or in ICQ.

If your opponent won and is in no hurry to submit a report, write it yourself. I need complete information.
Example.
Group 1 19.09.2013 Roger DAltavilla (blue, Fortress, Tazar) lose Palach HP (red, Inferno, Calh, Galthran) Panic 135
Thanks for the game!
The spawn was decent: external dwellings of wyverns, cows, and gnolls, 2 Dwarf Cottages. But they didn't stock Necromancers in the tavern. My opponent, on the other hand, got both Isra and Galthran; couldn't counter that even with a swamp treasure.
