We have Dark for such cases; we need to send him the saves, maybe he'll encounter Cobra later :D, maybe not in this tournament, maybe not this year, but what if? ;) From there, from there... Do you think it's time to discuss the personal matter of player darkello? And we've been putting it off and putting it off... :)
Here's the feedback; I already encountered a cheater in the tournament, and after Cobra, he asked me to check my generator for cheating :D
Well, if the time has come, I have nothing to fear because I have a friend and fellow countryman in Academy :D
I completely agree; what if my next opponent is one of these two, and I want to know why one was removed, but the other wasn't? Not because I want to get someone in trouble, but because I'm a tournament participant, and I'm genuinely interested in why there's an explanation for 4 out of 5 matches, but not for one? Isn't that strange?!
There's no explanation because it's not required and not necessary in this specific case, in my opinion, and there were no controversial situations in making the decision. No report – no game. If there's no game, then the answer is ONLY one – the player didn't play! The reasons why the player didn't play shouldn't concern you, and I don't see any obligation to inform you, even though you are a participating player. Theoretically, there could be personal reasons that are not related to the tournament itself.
The reason why one player advanced is because there was no game, and this is the only scenario when there's no report, because writing a report after a game is a mandatory condition for participating in the tournament. No further explanation is needed. As the technical result shows, the fault lies with the player who received the loss. What fault they have is also irrelevant because neither the players, the host, nor the judge dispute it, and they don't see a reason to disclose the reasons, but if they do, they will disclose them based on their own views, not because they are obligated to.
The host is not obligated to explain to everyone why the player who received the loss is at fault, especially those who are not involved, because the player involved in the match can challenge this. The host doesn't need to make a decision that would be unfair to either player.
You won't be matched against them anytime soon, but even if you were, it still wouldn't concern you because the decision is based on the specific situation, and you are not a participant in it. The fact that your opponent will be you or someone else doesn't matter.
I write all these explanations not for everyone to gossip, but for those who are directly involved (specifically for the player pairs) and for the judges, so they are aware of the tournament events. All of this could be done in private messages, but on the forum, everyone can read it at once instead of a hundred messages.
darkello, I could have simply answered you, but I didn't because you often chime in without considering whether it's necessary or not, and it's starting to annoy me. You often engage in irrelevant chatter and generally behave inappropriately, interfering where you shouldn't. It's all of this combined. IMHO. Your message, supposedly a request, doesn't look like a request at all. I don't see a question mark, and if it's not a request or a question, then it's probably some kind of statement, which can be interpreted as a "valuable suggestion": "Hey, don't forget to let me know why you're not writing the technical reason."
That's just not very appealing...
The goal of the tournament is to determine the winner, not to find out why someone didn't play in it.

It's amazing how some of our users can turn a small issue into a huge problem. They write 30 posts instead of just one sentence: "The player is withdrawing because they are leaving for the summer." I usually ask players to write this sentence themselves on the forum because this information is of interest to other organizers, as well as the Tournament Committee. Do you really plan to live forever, and that's why you waste your time so thoughtlessly? A big request to those who are withdrawing or missing a round: please post it yourself in the tournament threads; otherwise, withdrawing turns into ignoring and disrespecting the tournament organizers.

Well, go ahead and determine it without explaining the reasons. :) Give me an opponent, by the way; you don't even need to explain why someone advanced, the deadline has already passed. Or give a technical loss to both for not submitting a report :D
Well, now you've decided without giving any reasons :) Give me an opponent, by the way, you don't even have to explain why someone advanced, the deadline has passed. Or give both a technical loss for not writing a report :D
Today they have an ODD match at 6 PM Moscow time. I'll see who shows up, if no one does, I'll flip a coin.

Okay, we never managed to arrange a rematch with Straif in the Ace tournament. I'll write it here. Straif, when are you ready to finish the game?

I think you know why I wanted to know about one of the players in this match:cool: I don't understand why the organizer couldn't just answer right away....

darkello, Your message, supposedly a request, doesn't look like a request at all. No.
So, this "I'm a tournament participant, and you're a TOURNAMENT judge, and I think I have the right to ask for an explanation as to why one player was removed and not another?! So, I'm asking, judge, please explain why one player was allowed to continue and not the other?" – without question marks, in your opinion, or am I missing something?! [OFFTOPIC] Pit for LM: The issue is resolved; further discussion is unnecessary.
Due to new explanations provided by players RA_Ge and Cincinnat regarding their unplayed match, player RA_Ge advances to the next round of the playoffs.

The opponent took three restarts in a row, I took two, and we started.
111 - only five heroes, the second one came with good meat. I revealed a Dragon Fly Hive and three Gnoll Hutches. I decided not to take the last restart because it could have been worse. 112-115 - three more external dwellings of Gnolls, two Dragon Fly Hives, two Dragon Utopias, a necklace +3 to all stats. 116 - I take both secondary heroes, with preparation I reveal a fourth Dragon Fly Hive. 117 - I take two Dragon Fly Hives (8 each), a scout hero takes down the amulet. 121-122 - I approach the Griffin Conservatory, using scout heroes I take another Dragon Fly Hive, the main hero on the way to the Griffin Conservatory took two Naga Banks and an external dwelling of Hydras. 123 - I break the Griffin Conservatory (nearly a hundred Unicorns). I immediately take down the Sword +12 (90 Thunderbirds). I scouted one direction. Besides a Dragon Utopia, a Dragon Fly Hive, and an interesting Pandora's Box (which turned out to be the entire fifth level), I saw nothing else. 124 - I take the central Castle. I scouted more than half of the Treasury (not very large). 125-127 - I take a Dragon Utopia, two Griffin Conservatories, two Dragon Fly Hives, a box with 8 Bears, for experience. In the end - 3 Angels, 10 Bears, 55 Dwarves, 3 Chaos Hydras (the first four merged in the Dragon Utopia because I took scout heroes without a spell book, and the dragons behaved somewhat strangely). Stats: 12 36 18 18. Offense, Defense, Earth Magic, Resistance, Logistics, Tactics, Wisdom. The opponent left Crag Hack in the town without an army, so he died quickly, but his army was quite weak anyway, there would have been no problems in the final battle.

Immediately beat the Sword +12 (90 Thunderbirds). Scouted one direction.

My opponent chose all the rest stops, and I still had 111. On turn 111, I attack with 20+ ogres for the Diplomat medal and experience. On turn 112, Galtran attacks with 50+ griffins for Pandora and artifacts. In Pandora, Galtran gains 10,000 experience and masters Necromancy and Earth magic, although he doesn't have Slow. On turn 124, I move into the center with a Castle. After that, I clumsily try to take the center, even though on turn 127, I already have a Fortress. On turn 137, Galtran catches up to Kirr. The analysis showed that my opponent was in a bad position. Thanks for the game!
The opponent took all the rests; I still had 111. On 111, I hit 20+ ogres for experience using a diplomat's medal. On 112, Galtran hits 50+ griffins for Pandora and an artifact. There is 10K experience in Pandora; Galtran has expert Necromancy and Earth, though no slow. On 124, I move to the center with КЗ. After that, I clumsily eat the center, although by 127 I'm already with КВ. On 137, Galtran catches up to Kirry. The autopsy showed that the opponent was simply pathetic. Thanks for the game!
Twice the opponent reset my "chocolate" layouts; the second one in particular was just fabulous. In the end, it dealt out total chaos.
At the respawn there is only one clue for grands and an external dwelling of uniques, + an external dwelling of dracos in the depths which was discovered a bit late and I took it only on the 2nd turn. But the saddest thing is that the generation itself is bugged. There was no 3rd Castle or road to it; the exit from the table leads to ГО in one and a half turns, and the rest of the passage to another castle is wildly blocked by upgraded Necro horses. I thought maybe a gum rest would work, but as luck would have it, the only bypass around the block via off-road was found in 2.5 days. Further on, the road to the only castle along the way is again blocked by cyclops. I eventually made it around Labet. Anyway, on 117 I took the external dwelling of horses and built them up in the Castle. Army is small, no leveling, and on top of everything else, another unpleasantness — lack of haste to expert Air (collected all possible scrolls and 2 ГМ... Went for Pandoras, leveled up a bit. In the end, I exited through the far exit from the opp's passage into the treasure zone. It was total stagnation there (basically all troubles converged at once, because the far side of the treasure zone, closer to the opponent, is much tastier and has a castle). I beat back the wings and came to ГО at my respawn (turns out this is my 3rd castle). In the center, there was a so-so Dragon Utopia and a home mini that was basically nothing. All hives are small or pre-mini except one with 8 vivs.
Thanks for the game
