Posts from Favorites, to battle! - 6 - The Battle of Favorites! - 6
We respawned, it gave out 120 troglodytes and we went Found many Dragon Fly Hives at the respawn, which of course decided the outcome, went to the center on 121 through a double ГО (19 elves, 25 ghosts). Ate the Pandora's Boxes for troops, a couple of Dragon Fly Hives, set up a chain to capture the center Castle, but it so happened that while I was eating the Pandora's Boxes, I ran up to the opponent's ГО, and he was standing there) attacked, there was nothing serious in terms of troops, gg thanks for the game, I hate Jebus Cross =)
1. GoedenDag (649119136) has joined the organizing committee of the tournament. He has participated as an organizer in previous "Favorite" tournaments and compiled statistics. This time, he agreed to take on a large and difficult task – monitoring deadlines. Therefore, he will be checking up on you and finding out how your progress is going. All players must provide him with complete information about what has been started/postponed/not started, whether there is communication with opponents, and independently inform him of any problems. Decisions regarding technical results will be made based on his knowledge, if necessary. Thus, our responsibilities are distributed as follows: Scorpiona (ICQ: 469326983) - maintaining tables and lists of reports. If you notice any inaccuracies, contact Tatiana. GoedenDag (ICQ: 649119136) - leading the tournament - ensuring adherence to deadlines, resolving scheduling issues, compiling statistics. Gomunguls (ICQ: 499978341) - judge - handling controversial situations in games, enforcing rules. Pit for LM (ICQ: 471401475) - everything together.
2. Qualifiers and replacements. Additional registration is open. There will definitely be withdrawals and substitutions; we are all human, and everyone may have problems. Therefore, we are organizing a reserve list. When a vacancy appears, we will make replacements, taking into account the player's level and their Castle. Replacements will be made in order – according to the time of registration. Naturally, those who lost in the qualifying matches will be first in line: 1. Kreg Xek [Castle] (696097626) - 5th or 6th tier. 2. loser of qualifier 1 - 3rd or 4th tier. 3. Captain [Rampart] (310-362-915) - no lower than 4th tier.
3. We were asked to clarify the rules regarding computer selection on "Mininostalgia":
On Mininostalgia, blue selects computers first. There is no need to reselect when the color changes; your computers remain yours. On Diamond, red removes an extra Castle.
I will formulate it more clearly and add it to the rules.

Why does the medal only display 8 cities? The Tower is missing.
This is an old story from the days of L-2. Back then, we held a tournament with Dirty_Player; at that time, he had a very large number of participants – as many as 40 people. Therefore, we decided to award three winners. RAPER drew and redrew the medals several times. In the initial version, there were 9 Castles, but after a few months of creative searching, the Tower mysteriously disappeared. Yuri's exam session began, and I didn't ask him to redraw it for the fourth or fifth time. However, over all these years, the absence of the Tower has caused some concern. After all, theoretically, it can win. For example, in the "First Snow" tournament, it did win :smile04:. This year, the Tower is enjoying unprecedented popularity. What if everyone wants to play with it in the next "Favorite"?
But this time, we got lucky. One of our new players - ColdRain - agreed to fix this oversight. And here's what he came up with:
In my opinion, it's very cool and stylish, and Yuri-RAPER's idea remains. ColdRain, thank you very much!
3. Requested a clarification in the rules for selecting computers on Mini-Nostalgia: Quote:
On Diamond, it removes the extra castle.
I will rephrase it more politely and add it to the rules. On Diamond, the castle that remained untouched as the ninth one during the Cherk should logically be removed.
МУДРЫЙ - не обязательно старый, ОПЫТНЫЙ - не обязательно мудрый... обладатель и того и другого всегда должен помнить слова НАПОЛЕОНА БОНАПАРТА: Война состоит из непредусмотренных событий; В каждом большом деле всегда приходится какую-то часть оставить на долю :smile33: СЛУЧАЯ...
Why reinvent the wheel? Players take turns choosing castles for their opponents. The 9th castle is unnecessary.
There's another option, which seems fairer to me. In the in-game chat, 3 castles are randomly generated. These are then assigned as opponent castles to each player.
About the applications.
The application of koxik32 is denied. It is necessary to clarify the situation with all the participants and stop the invasion of the clones, and then to think about taking part in the tournaments.
98 applications are accepted.
Among them:
Rampart - 18
Necropolis - 14
Fortress - 14
Dungeon - 13
Castle - 12
Tower - 11
Conflux - 10
Stronghold - 3
Inferno - 3
The traditional scheme of the tournament (group stage and then play-off round) is used, because the main purpose is to play with your favorite castle as much as possible.
The Regulations:
1st stage. All 96 players are divided into 16 groups, there are 6 players in each group and they play a round-robin tournament; each player has to play 5 games until December 21st.
The 4 best players from each group join the play-off round. The players who occupy 1st and 2nd place join the upper bracket, the players who occupy 3rd and 4th place join the lower bracket.
The 2nd stage is a play-off round. The participants of the upper bracket, after losing a game, join the lower bracket; the participants of the lower bracket, after losing a game, leave the tournament.
Organizations and judges.
Scorpiona (ICQ: 469326983) is responsible for managing the tables and the report list. Write to her if you notice that something is wrong or inaccurate.
GoedenDag (ICQ: 649119136) is responsible for maintaining the terms, statistics, and resolving problems with game agreements.
Gomunguls (ICQ: 499978341) is the judge and responsible for all disputable situations in the games and observance of the rules.
Pit for LM (ICQ: 471401475) can answer any questions connected with the tournament.
2. Selection and replacement. Supplementary registration is opened.
If any player has problems connected with taking part in the tournament, he will be replaced. A supplementary list is created. The replacement takes place on a first-come basis.
The supplementary list:
1. Kreg Xek [Castle] (696097626) – 5th or 6th bracket.
2. The loser of the elimination game, Егор Коробейников – Graf_Bananov – 3rd or 4th bracket.
3. Captain [Rampart] (310-362-915) – not less than 4th bracket.
3. Adjustments:
1. For Mini-Nostalgia:
The blue player begins to choose the towns of the computer-controlled players. After the colors are changed, the towns of the selected computer-controlled players remain unchanged.
2. For Diamond:
The red player eliminates an unnecessary town.
4. About the Prize.
The Medal for previous tournaments was created without the Castle of Tower. This time, one of the new members of our community – ColdRain offered to correct this oversight. And now we present you the new Medal of the Tournament. It looks splendidly and trendy and follows the idea of the previous Tournaments. We are very grateful to ColdRain.
On Diamond, the Castle that remained untouched during the draft should logically be removed.
What are you planning to draft in the Favorites tournament?Javdet
Why reinvent the wheel? The computer Castles are selected in turn. The 9th one is unnecessary. There's another option, which seems fairer to me. Three Castles are generated in the Warlord Tournament chat. These are used as computer Castles and assigned to each player.
No one is reinventing anything. We are playing according to the seasonal rules. It says:
8. Diamond Template: Castle selection. Players choose their Castles using the standard draft. After that, the player who chose the color crosses out one of the remaining seven Castles, which will not participate in the game. The player creating the game assigns the remaining six Castles to computer players in any order. All starting Castles must be different.
We don't cross out Castles. The colors for the first generation are determined by a draw. The player marked in red removes the extra Castle. This point was requested to be clarified. On Diamond, this is irrelevant.
14.10.13 Alexey-omsk(red, inferno, piro) def c0nn3c71nkK.ppL(blue, swamp, vestan) balance 125 We got completely blocked, the layout turned out mediocre. Griffin Conservatory 3-4, no way to take it yet. Slow roads, and a crooked path to the center for the opponent, who has to break through a triple guard for it. The demon wasn't doing too well, 25 demons to 125. I'm planning to split up, take the Conservatory, but the opponent casts Town Portal and lands on a bugged road into my castle. I have to go again, on the second attempt he tries to break the cyclopes but loses. As for chances, judging by the fact that the piro had 10 mana, there wasn't much. Thanks for the game!
I confirm! The opponent had convenient passages to secondaries, my second passage turned out to be blocked by rocks a couple of days' travel away. Vestan got a hard-earned 9th level on the first, leveled up well, took Griffin Conservatory 2 on the second, decided to fight in the center with Mass Slow because losing tempo wasn't reasonable - 50+ gr. wyverns on one side fell from Town Portal with wyvern losses, on the other side 70+ Thunderbirds with loss of wasps, 70+ cyclopes, which were the opponent's GO, impossible to bypass, completely killed them off.

Group G 13.10.13 Snooppy(red,castle,Valessa,Valessa) lose c0nn3c71nkK.ppL(blue, swamp,Tazar,Tazar) spider 126
Crooked respawn with a single road, which I ran along to the nearest town by the middle of the second week. Bought 3 Pokémon external dwellings (one, though, behind the Wizards), a Dragon Fly Hive, an external market, and a Naga Bank. Plus a decent amount of gold scattered around. Got Terek, Pasissa, Piro, pulled Monere of level 1 from the prison, who gladly swore faithful service. Then it got merrier: right next to the road, griffin external dwellings, a pot of monks, another Naga Bank (actually found four in total), I started dreaming about feathered creatures on the second week… However, money quickly ran out, with trading I barely managed to get horses in the citadel. For recruitment, of course, nothing was left. Bought everything except them and the pre-mining Naga Bank. I buy more horses and knock out the purple Necro from "my" village, and here come the blues. I drive off the blue scout, and immediately Taz himself comes to take revenge with 4 angels. And there's nothing to meet him with. The other 2 Naga Banks are max, I dive into one of them to buy stuff at least, and then gg… (Not a single Griffin Conservatory, not a single castle encountered along the way…)
Thanks for the game!
PS. Interesting group we've got gathered here…
On the first, I broke through on two fronts to two towns, on one side Taz also manages to capture the Barbarian computer on 117, on the other side Müllich with wyverns successfully defended the money. On the second, with Müllich, I take Griffin Conservatory 2, with zero-level Alkin another Griffin Conservatory 2, and pass everything to Taz's side. According to the tavern, it's revealed that the opponent isn't doing well at all - I head in his direction and soon we cross paths, the opponent types gg. Thanks for the game)
Everything was not bad, right away with Luna I dispelled the Shield +3, then the Flail +4, broke through to a secondary zone, but there was a Sniper block, went to another one, turned out to be Rampart, burned 2 Griffin Conservatories, 2 Dragon Fly Hives, but opponent's game didn't take off. gg
Thanks for the game
