The time has come and so... drumroll... the qualifying tournament for FB-8 is declared open :smile44:

I. Regulations and Deadlines

The qualifying tournament will be held using the "Swiss" system

Start of the tournament: April 1, 2014; registration until March 29, 2014 inclusive

Time limit per round: 2 weeks - technical losses will be assigned without regard to opinions or authority (the sole exception is CIS-14 in Minsk)
Players have the right to arrange a convenient time among themselves, but if an agreement cannot be reached, the critical time for playing is the night from Saturday to Sunday of the first week. (if the game was not completed in one session, then during the second week). In case one player fails to show up at the set time, the other must write to the organizer or one of the judges, and when the tech result is assigned, this will be the main argument.
This clause is not subject to discussion.

7 players advance to the final stage.

II. Rules and Templates.

1. By default, games are played according to /topic/10593/
2. By default, the game version is SoD 3.2 (4.0); by mutual agreement, WT or any other version of HOMM3.

3.The template for each round will be determined as follows - during registration, each participant must indicate 5 favorite templates; from all these templates, 9 will be selected (depending on the number of participants and the number of rounds, respectively). Then the selected templates are randomly "shuffled" and a list is compiled (e.g., 1-2sm4d3, 2-mininoszta, 3-Jebus Cross, 4-skirmish, etc.). In the 1st round, players ban templates that "came up" under numbers 1, 2, 3 (i.e., banning occurs from 2sm4d3, mininoszta, and Jebus Cross). In the next round, banning occurs from templates 2, 3, 4 (mininoszta, Jebus Cross, skirmish), etc. In the last 7th (9th) round, banning will occur from templates 7 (9), 1, 2. Red starts the ban

4. Town selection: standard ban. Blue starts the ban. Colors are determined during the draw and do not change with restarts.

A win awards 1 point, a draw 0.5, a loss 0.
The winners, and accordingly those who qualify for FB, will be 7 people.
The winner is determined by the total number of points scored. In case of a tie in points, additional tiebreakers apply.
1) Buchholz Coefficient
2) Head-to-head result

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. Tournament Host: zloi_romantic (296524052)
Tournament Judges: Pit for LM (471401475), Dirty_Player (ICQ 408722873).
4. For each game played, participants must submit a report and confirmation.
5. Saves of all games must be kept until the end of the tournament and presented at the first request of the tournament hosts or any AC member.
6. Regarding controversial issues, if any arise, please discuss them outside the forum. To resolve them, contact the host or a tournament judge via ICQ and provide daily saves, ICQ logs, and other necessary information.
The judges' decision is made primarily based on the tournament rules. If the situation that arises is not regulated by the rules, then the judges will be guided by basic logic and gaming ethics.
7. All tournament games count towards the season rating. Reports and confirmations are written in this thread and will be copied to the "Game Reports and Confirmations Online" thread. I.e., there is NO need to duplicate reports in the seasonal thread.
8. The final part of the tournament will be held using a round-robin system.

IV. Participants
1. Experienced players from HW and other gaming resources are invited to the tournament.
2. Newcomers who have shown good results are allowed (applications will be considered on an individual basis).
3. Newly registered players are not allowed to participate in the tournament (exception: active players from other gaming resources; applications will be considered on an individual basis).
4. Players who have a BWP are not eligible to participate in the tournament. If any player is awarded a BWP during the tournament, they will be disqualified and their results annulled.
5. Applications from undisciplined players who have repeatedly "ditched" tournaments may be rejected.
6. The organizers reserve the right to refuse a user participation in the tournament without publicly explaining the reasons.
7. The Winner and 2nd-3rd place finishers of the FB-7 tournament are NOT allowed to participate in the qualifiers.
8. The tournament application must include:
- 5 most favorite templates
- convenient time for playing

9. Players Gomunguls, Aya, Maretti advance to FB-8 without a qualifier, while players Piterius and LeBron have a bonus of a byeslot for 1 round (if, of course, they wish to participate)

The randomizer arranged the templates as follows
1-2sm4d3
2-Spider
3-skirmish (played according to OFB rules, i.e., with a town ban and no color change, but by mutual agreement you can play according to seasonal rules, i.e., allrandom)
4-6lm10a
5-JC
6-8mm6a
7-anarchy
8-diamond
9-Mini nostalgia

Thus, in the 1st round Red starts the ban from templates - 2sm4d3, Spider, skirmish
In the 2nd round, the ban proceeds from templates Spider, skirmish, 6lm10a
In all rounds, Red starts the template ban

I repeat for everyone - if you have a problem with your opponent (cannot find a common time, being ignored, etc.), write to me on ICQ - we will sort it out

Hmm, I was waiting all morning for Dark's posts about the tech issues and the draw, but this is what I found... :D
Since the YaR-Chemist_HP match has been submitted for the judges to review, the draw will be held a little later (otherwise, someone will have to play 2 matches in a row as blue or red), most likely I'll post it tonight or tomorrow.
Also, due to many players traveling to Minsk, round 3 is extended by a week to May 20th. :)
Now, for the good news, about the tech issues ;)
There are almost none in this round, which is very pleasing, however...
zoog-Pyre-Pyre reported to me and on the forum, zoog didn't, so the score is 0-1
GoD-Kashchei-the situation is the same, 0-1
Now about the losses - GoD is leaving our tournament - apparently, Zhenya doesn't have enough time for games (2 tech losses), artbocha - there's a post in progress, shameonyou - seems to have also quit..
In general, we're waiting for the judges' decision.

Hmm, I was waiting for Dark's posts all morning, about the tech choices and the draw, but this is what I got... :D
Since the YaR-Chemist_HP match has been submitted for the judges to review, the draw will be held a little later (otherwise, someone will have to play 2 matches in a row as blue or red), most likely I will post it this evening or still tomorrow.
Also, due to many players traveling to Minsk, round 3 is extended by a week to 05/20. :)
Well, now for the good news, about the tech choices ;)
In this round, there are almost none, which is very pleasing, however...
zoog-Pyre-Pyre reported to me and to the forum, zoog is out, so 0-1
GoD-Kashchei-the situation is the same, 0-1
Now about the losses - GoD is leaving our tournament - apparently, Zhenya doesn't have time for games at all (2 tech forfeits), artbocha - there is a post in progress, shameonyou - it seems he has also quit...
In general, we are waiting for the judges' decision.
But Yar himself admitted to the red rush, I think, the Chemist doesn't forgive him, why wait another whole day? Give me an opponent! And preferably one who won't go to this damn CIS tournament.

I completely agree; they took away an entire day from me during the tournament, and now they want to take away another night. They manage to be punctual when it comes to setting up the tech, but when it's time to draw the lots...

So, Yar himself acknowledged the red rush, I understand, and Chemist isn't letting it go. Why wait another whole day? Give me an opponent! And preferably one who won't be going to that damn CIS region.

Guys, sorry, but at the time of the red rush, I was 99% sure of my victory and didn't intentionally break the rules, after a grueling 2-hour battle.

People, have some conscience, and above all, some dignity. If you've already lost, have the courage to admit it. If this redraw wasn't decisive, then your victory won't be worth anything.
:D It's like something out of an American movie.

3.1. Red rush is prohibited, meaning that the player playing with the red color is not allowed to attack on the first day of the week with reinforcements purchased on that day: a) on the blue player's Castle (even if the Castle is not guarded); b) on the blue player's heroes or guarded mines, **if** the presence of reinforcements can affect the outcome of the battle or losses in the battle for either player. * Troops that come with purchased heroes, as well as troops from Outer Dwellings ("Niches"), Pandora's Boxes, Summoning Portals, etc., can be used without restrictions. * The concept of red rush does not apply if both heroes end up in a Portal or Underground Gate during the attack. It should be remembered that if the attack is **not on a Castle** and it did not affect the outcome of the battle, then it is not a red rush.

Used three resets. The exit was kind of long in the gap on the rocks, but there were Griffin Conservatories there. A magnificent guild from the dungeon computer with a portal-resurrection-Dimension Door. The first Dragon Fly Hive max allows you to take the conserves on 6 angels and the first level two Dragon Utopia with a Sword of Justice and a Black Orb at the respawn of the snow computer almost without losses. I offered the red player to surrender, but they did not heed my arguments. I took a town from the swamp computer and prepared for an assault on the Tower, which I warned about. Along the way, I took a Pandora's Box with Air. And in the end, Nellka got caught on a single Green Gremlin — even with Tactics, but that was already the finish. Thanks for the game

Terrible shortage of gold and blockers prevented me from developing the tempo. I crashed by the third Dragon Utopia hoping for control, but I was cut off from the army.

Thanks for the game!

Blah blah blah... a lot of unnecessary words were said, but finally Bishop pointed everyone to the rules: "on Heroes or guarded blue mines, if the presence of reinforcements can affect the outcome of the battle or losses in the battle for any of the players." Thus, in this game, the concept of reinforcements is questionable; I don't have any saves – they are with Pete, he will review them and make his decision...
Regarding the fact that someone had a day of the game stolen – you have an entire week added to the tournament, so be patient.
Calling the Tu Jurist tournament the most important tournament of the year – "this damned CIS," is at least incorrect.

Calling the most important tournament of the year "this damn CIS" is, at the very least, incorrect.

It's incorrect to call it that because it's the biggest drinking party of the year :D, not a tournament.

I don't know, party or not, but all CIS championships have been won only by the strongest.

Enough with the blah-blah-blah.
