There are too many moderators on the forum. Who is so generous with moderator privileges? I'll book one set.

by the way, what prevents us from legislating the issue of streams and broadcasts? It has been discussed and raised so many times... A question for the ace-king :)

They gave him half a year.

As you know, miracles happen before the New Year, and I want to give the forum another gift. User ColdRain aka Ariputra is retiring. Happy New Year to everyone!!!!

Creating clone accounts results in a lifetime ban.

The year is coming to an end, and I won't have the opportunity to be online for the next few days, so let's summarize the intermediate results of the qualification.

Let's start with the good news: the games are progressing well, many have already played the first round, and some even the second! If you have an opponent for the third round, you can start playing, but don't forget that the series goes to two wins!
If anyone has a problem with arranging a game, it's best to let me or the tournament judges know.

Submissions for the future tournament cup are starting to arrive; there aren't many, but they are of good quality. I hope this flow of submissions doesn't stop.

Unfortunately, there's also some bad news.
Everyone knows that we have many game rules, and sometimes, in the heat of the moment or due to inattention, we break them.
But there is one rule that everything depends on – the rule of fair play. One of the tournament participants, unfortunately, violated it, first claiming one thing and then, the next day, something else.
To briefly describe the situation, Slayzer was streaming his game against Vatya. At one point, one of the viewers pointed out that Vatya was on a stream. When Slayzer started looking through the viewers list, he did indeed find his opponent in the match. A few moments later, Vatya left the stream.
I had a conversation with both players. Vatya told me that he accidentally ended up on the stream, clicked on the wrong thing, and immediately closed it. We then had a 20-minute conversation where Vatya talked about his strong feelings against watching other people's streams and mentioned people who could vouch for him. Overall, I became convinced that it was most likely a misunderstanding. But I was very surprised when I read the following:

As a result, Vatya won this match.

In light of the above, in the match between Vatya and Slayzer, Vatya receives a technical defeat and is disqualified from the tournament by unanimous decision of the organizer and the tournament judges.
Vatya's further fate will be known after the decision of the AC (Arbitration Committee).

I just want to add that the more such cases there are, the fewer streamers will want to broadcast interesting (important) games. I think it's clear who will benefit and who will lose from this. Besides, what pleasure is there in a victory obtained in this way, and is it even worth anything to such winners?

User favio was banned at his own request; in the match between Diabler and favio, Diabler receives a technical victory.
I'll leave this without comment; it's a pity that it turned out this way.

Finally, to end on a positive note.

Congratulations to everyone on the upcoming 2014! I wish you to never stop, always achieve your goals, and may everyone find their Arch in the Refuge in the new year :smile02:

I don't understand what prevents people from creating clones through a proxy and avoiding detection by IP address

In short, here's the situation: Slayzer was streaming his game against Vatya, and at some point, one of the viewers pointed out that Vatya was also streaming. When Slayzer started looking through the viewer list, he actually found his opponent from the match. A few moments after that, Vatya left the stream.

I'm skeptical about mean and embittered women, but here they completely blew my mind http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utVLescQI8s&sns=fb, and at the same time, it increased my appreciation for our culture.
