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

Everyone needs to calm down here. Everyone has their own opinion, but let the judges decide!
And in the meantime, we're all learning the rules together.

you know what presumption of innocence is, well, that same hero did it unconsciously! that is, he simply thought that way, because he didn't know about the additional clarifications in the rules; this also happens.

So, it turns out you can cheat everyone without consequences, forcing them to surrender, and then just pretend you didn't know the rules, or that there weren't any such rules, and still win and profit!? :smile07:
Is there any log or did I miss something in the text that explains why you think Heroin was intentionally cheating? The person was also in the game for 12+ hours, could they have just been confused or didn't know?

Let's remember that Heroes is a game, and we are all noble gentlemen, who shouldn't engage in verbal altercations due to trivial circumstances. It's understandable that one might say terrible things in the heat of the moment, but we need to find the strength to understand and forgive the other person.

There were a couple of out-of-town gremlins, one each of mages and giants, and boots near the ogres. The first three roads turned out to be false—they led into blocks. But after that, I started racking up experience quickly with the piercing gremlins. The home village was rich in out-of-towns—a couple of nags, a couple of djinns, and 3 gremlins, and there were also a couple of Dragon Utopia, Pandora with level 4. I managed to take the orator's hat from the horde of denders on the second [turn] just in time. Gurni's stats were three times higher, so I started building up power and clearing the Dragon Utopia. In the end, I took the starting and main (swamp) cities own-hand. And then, after several mutual skirmishes, the opponent admitted defeat. Thanks for the game.

There were a couple of external gremlins, one each of mages and giants, and boots next to the ogres. The first three roads turned out to be false — they led into blocks. But then I started quickly racking up experience with the piercing gremlins. My home village was rich in externals — a pair of nagas, a pair of djinns, and 3 gremlins, and there were also a couple of Dragon Utopia, Pandora at level 4. I managed to take the orator's hat from behind the horde of denders on the second turn. Gurni's parameters were three times higher, so I began accumulating power and clearing the Dragon Utopia. In the end, I took both the starting and main (swamp) cities. And then, after several mutual skirmishes, the opponent admitted defeat. Thanks for the game.
A spoonful of honey in the form of a teapot and a 5all sword behind the hydras in a huge barrel of tar... Thanks for the game.

The game reached its late stage, and I had Crag Hack and Tazar. I managed to capture all three treasures and build Archmages. I rushed to my opponent, and after a couple of battles with their units, they surrendered. Thanks for the game, and good luck in the remaining matches!

Even Satyr, whose native language is not Russian, noticed Darkellich's pronunciation! 3 mistakes in one word – presumption. Who can do better?? :D It's time to start awarding points for that. The mighty Russian language will forgive everything, but what about the moderators?! :D :D :D

A complete mess :(

I took a few screenshots.


List of tournament reports - the first page of the forum:





Diabler's first message:





Following the link from the list of reports, we get to the confirmation that was later deleted:





And then, in the evening:



Who confirmed it under your nickname? And what was the purpose of deleting the message? :confused:

Probably, he who can spend a day with you unscathed,
breathe the same air,
and keep his sanity intact...

P.S. We received another (yet another) controversial situation due to this awful red rush. When will it finally be removed from the rules? In my opinion, it's better if red wins with an advantage 10 out of 100 times than having one such situation.

The controversial situation didn't happen because of the red rush, but because of a lack of knowledge of the rules.
In my opinion, both are to blame.

I'm sure that if you disqualify everyone who says both players are at fault, based on all the rules, you'll find that you're all pretty quick to back down, you "masters of the rules."
P.S. Of course, it would have been possible to check immediately, but when you're not paying attention and there's no reason not to trust your opponent...

Added the draw for the last round and the current standings of the participants before the final round.

P.S. Please double-check me, as I might have made a mistake with the results.
