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

The poor template with many zones was dealt, Kiriusha logged in, I ran her through the stables, took a second Conflux Castle, captured the peppers. At respawn 2 Griffon Conservatories — levels 2 and 3-4, captured the external dwelling of Cyclopes. On day 121 I was aiming for the Dragon Fly Hive, but the opponent surrendered.

Thank you for the game.

I got a poor template with many zones, kiryusha came in, I ran her through the stables, took the second Conflux town, defended the peppers, at respawn 2 Griffon Conservatories double and 3-4, captured the external dwelling of cyclopes, at 121 I was aiming for the Dragon Fly Hive, but the opponent surrendered.

Thanks for the game.

It all started when I, as bron, attacked 20-49 dwarves on 111, who were guarding the Legion's Torso and blocking the only road. There turned out to be 49 of them with GS — a loss, we both used up our restarts.

I wait 5 days — saving money for a new hero :D .

Then I somehow buy a hero, go off-road, and on 121 I lose to zero again, this time to skeletons, of which there were nearly 100. :smile13:
It was an excellent game.

Thanks for the game!

On the first week, Angels were placed in the Citadel, and I decided to level up Tyraxor, who was given Earth magic, even though Kyrre appeared at the end of the week.

On the second week, Dragon Fly Hives started to be cleared; I reclaimed the Earth spell book behind the Pegasi, and the Hives began to be cleared faster.

At the start of the third week, a Dragon Utopia duo — I got the Cap of Silence, started building Archangels. Then I also picked up the Air spell book, which I had seen since the first week. I didn't take Wisdom at all; in addition to the must-have skills (except Logistics, which wasn't offered), I got Ballistics and Fire. After the Dragon Utopia and the Air spell book, I flew toward the artifacts I had spotted through View Air. There was a Red Orb and a Dragon Utopia with the Shield of the Damned and Shackles of War. I pulled it off just in time — when I was collecting them, Crag Hack was already there in full battle readiness. So I had full control and weak stats, while Crag Hack had 30 Attack and 30 Defense, but his only control spell was Town Portal.

After that, I cleared out Dragon Fly Hives and Griffin Conservatories, and entered two Libraries. On day 143, the red player entered my domain; Crag Hack (now with Wings of the Angels) couldn't reach my main town and Town Portaled to a village I had spotted with my scouting. That turn, I picked up a Pandora's Box with 35 Grand Wolves, the Sword of the Damned, Cape of Speed, a Mini-Dragon Fly Hive, and decided to attack.

In the final battle, both of us made mistakes, but I made slightly fewer, and Morale kicked in right when it was needed. For defeating Crag Hack, Tyraxor finally got Logistics in his last skill slot :)

Thanks for the game!

On the first week, angels were built in the citadel; I decided to level Tyraxor, who was given Earth magic, although Kyrre appeared at the end of the week.

On the second week, we started taking Dragon Fly Hives; I intercepted the Earth spell book for the Pegasi, and the Dragon Fly Hives started getting cleared faster.

At the start of the third week, a double Dragon Utopia gave a Helm of the Alabaster; I built Archangels. Then I also took the Air spell book, which I had seen since the first week. I didn't take Wisdom at all; in addition to the must-have skills (except for Logistics, which wasn't offered), I got Ballistics and Fire magic. After the Dragon Utopia and the Air spell book, I flew toward the artifacts I had spotted with View Air. There was a Red Orb and a Dragon Utopia with the Shield of the Damned and Shackles of War. I pulled it off just in time — when I was collecting them, Crag Hack was already there in full battle readiness. In the end, I had full control and weak stats; Crag Hack had 30 Attack and Defense, but his only control was Town Portal.

After that, I cleaned up Dragon Fly Hives and Griffin Conservatories and entered two Libraries. On week 4, day 3, the red player entered my territory; Crag Hack (now with Wings) couldn't reach the main and Town Portaled to a village I had spotted with Scouting. That turn, I picked up a Pandora's Box with 35 Grand Elves, the Sword of the Damned, a Cape of Speed, a Dragon Fly Hive, and decided to attack.

In the final battle, both of us failed, but I failed a bit less, and good Morale kicked in when needed. For defeating Crag Hack, Tyraxor finally got Logistics in the last slot :)

Thanks for the game!

Confirmed, it was a good game, but I did make quite a few mistakes, and toward morning I was running out of time on the timer... but in the final battle, when victory was almost in my pocket — I blinded both main stacks), and due to inattention (I didn't account for the speed being 7, not 5) I failed to cut down another stack ((.
Thanks for the game.

Very nice start for Diamond, though without high-level external dwellings.
There's a Griffin Conservatory near the village, a Griffin Conservatory on the grass, a Stable nearby, and Pandora's Boxes.
On day 116, I hit a Pandora's Box — it gives 80 Troglodytes, I take the Troglodyte external dwelling, and set up a portal.
Building Manticores with a portal in the Citadel.
For the mines, I got Log and Earth.

On week 2, I take the level 2 Griffin Conservatory, a Pandora's Box with 20 mages, and a Pandora's Box for all of skill level 3.
Then a scout hero from the prison with Air and Wisdom takes the level 1 Griffin Conservatory on the grass and a Pandora's Box for all Air magic. I found a passage to the opponent, but I'm in no hurry, because from the overview I can see that he's holed up in the Castle.
I take a Dragon Utopia with a Helm +6 to All and +12 SP, gather 4 Dragon Fly Hives for 22 Wyverns, pick up a +5 to All sword and a Book of Fire Magic from the ground, and run to the opponent.
On day 133, I kill Tamika in the Castle using Anti-Magic and Armageddon for 1100.
Thanks for the game!

A normal start with 3 stacks and built-up archers worked out well; Valka grabbed the log quickly and became the "mommy" (there was no one else available right away). I pushed through as far as I could, dug up boots and an external dwelling for horses by the end of the week, and saw a level 5 cap. On the 2nd week, another external dwelling for horses and an angel portal were found in the treasure zone; I somehow managed to fit the feathered ones into the citadel. Plenty of one-hit kills (oshny), Dimension Door and flight are available—I flew to the opponent's respawn, snatched the console there, and came back. But I overextended for nothing... All my "oshny" died on a lock, and Valka blew up the ducks and bought her way out with 3 angels; Solmir didn't have much of an army, but he had tons of mana—with all those one-hit kills and mass haste he would have wiped me, but I rushed in and got smacked. I didn't try to press Solmir further, so I just ate everything I saw. On the neighboring swamp, I found 2 Dragon Utopias; pathfinding with Valka was very helpful, even though flight was expert. By the end of the week, I broke one; we clashed a bit with locks against the opponent, and I didn't let him near my villages. I crushed the swamp companion, and there was an external dwelling for same-day (viv) units. The map template is compact, everything is close, so I had to spend a lot of money on scouts to fend off reconnaissance and open up more of the map myself. In the third Dragon Utopia, they gave КЗ, КВ, and a "chupa-chups." Meanwhile, Katerina was leveled up with earth magic; she started jumping between towns. Valeska got earth in the last slot, but basic... I returned to my treasure zone, finished off the console there, Pandora for 10k experience, and then Solmir hopped into one of the border villages. Since the timer was already on a thread, he didn't have time to set up. Valka immediately realized this was her chance—Katerina flew through all the villages, gathered all the "pokemon" and archers, upgraded them, and gave them to Vale. She put on the "chupa-chups" and attacked; the stats there were fierce, but without magic Solmir couldn't pull off the fight. Thanks for the game.

Got a normal start with 3 stacks and built archers, Valka quickly grabbed the log house and became the mom (there was no one else right away either). Broke through where I could, dug up boots by the end of the week and an external dwelling of horses, I see a level 5 cap. On week 2, another external dwelling of horses and an angel portal were found in the treasure zone, somehow managed to squeeze the feathered ones into the citadel. Lots of power, Dimension Door and flight available — flew to the enemy's respawn, took the cons there and back. But I rushed in vain... All the power perished on the horse, and Valka blew up the ducks and bought back in with 3 angels. Solmyr didn't have much army, but had tons of mana, with all the power and mass haste he would have shut me down, but I rushed and got wrecked. Solmyr didn't press the finish, so I'm eating everything I see. On the neighboring swamp I found 2 Dragon Utopias, pathfinding on Valka helped a lot, even though flight was expert. By the end of the week I broke one, had a bit of a horse fight with the enemy, didn't let him near my towns. Killed the swamp computer, there's also an external dwelling of wyverns. The template is compact, everything is close, so I had to spend a lot of money on scouts to fend off reconnaissance and reveal more of the map myself. In the third Dragon Utopia I got КЗ, КВ, and a lollipop. In parallel, Catherine with earth magic was leveled up, and she started jumping between towns. Valeska was given earth in the last slot, but basic... Returned to my treasure zone, finished off the cons there, a pandora's box with 10k experience, and then Solmyr jumped into one of the border towns. Since the timer was already on the edge, he didn't have time to reinforce. Valka immediately realized this was her chance — Catherine flew through all the towns, gathered all the pokemons and archers, upgraded them, and gave them to Val. She put on the lollipop and attacked, the parameters were brutal, but without magic Solmyr couldn't hold out in the fight. Thanks for the game.

On the third week 4 Dragon Utopias, but there was no Town Portal anywhere, which greatly slowed down the game, barely found it on the fourth. Didn't have time to bring the army, and morale didn't trigger on the main stack at the start of the battle in the FB either, which would have decided it, in the end I was punished, thanks for the game.
