Summer-Autumn Seasons of 2014.


Rules. We are playing according to Rules for online games in Heroes III and the seasonal Ranked Tournament.
Difference: a system of subjective restarts is in effect: "totaling 2 days":
4.3. Subjective Restarts:
each player has the right to take a restart/restarts no later than the end of their turn on the corresponding day, that is, start a new game with map regeneration. It is possible to take either 2 restarts on the first day of the game (111+111), or one restart on the second day (112).
Of course, by mutual agreement, you can play according to standard tournament rules "totaling 3 days".

Automatic report submission. Only reports written using the automatic report submission system will be counted towards the rating. To gain access to submitting reports, you must предварительно register for the tournament. Players who have played at least 5 matches with different opponents on the HW forum may participate in the tournament (it is necessary to provide links to detailed reports).
Before writing reports, it is mandatory to familiarize yourself with Rules for Writing Reports.
If there is an error when entering any parameter, you need to inform the tournament judges: Pit for LM - icq 471401475 or Dirty_Player - icq 408-722-873 for correction or cancellation.

Judges. If problems and disputes arise during the game, immediately contact the hosts and judges, as there are many of them, so with a high probability, someone will be online:
Pit for LM - icq 471401475;
Dirty_Player - icq 408-722-873;
Javdet - icq 275667709;
Gomunguls - icq 499978341;
Mizrael - icq 27384379.
If no one is available, calmly save the game and postpone it. After that, write private messages to the judges - in the upper right corner of any page of the forum there are words Private Messages, click on them, select the menu on the left - New Message, enter the names of the recipients:
Dirty_Player ; Javdet ; Gomunguls ; Mizrael ; Pit for LM
and state your problem.

Offtopic.
Here - only seasonal games - reports and discussion of those game situations that occurred in them.
It is forbidden to condemn players for:
- writing reports with deadlines from the first week (111, 112, 113...),
- refusing to provide autosaves and gum restarts,
- playing with weaker opponents, etc.
In this topic, such discussions will be off-topic and trolling and will be deleted without explanation.
========////////========

I decided to start registration for the ranked tournament earlier so that you immediately have the opportunity to write reports starting June 1st. I will activate applications on Sunday morning.

What's new?
The most important thing is that I want to conduct another experiment and this time combine 2 seasons into one - summer + autumn. I will summarize the results in 6 months. There will be one medal, not two, and with a different design; they promised me it would be very beautiful, and there will be a desire to fight for it.

Why? There are many reasons:
- any rating depends on quantity and quality. In our formula, the transition from quantity to quality begins approximately after one and a half months from the start, and the formula really starts working just towards the end of the season, when more than 1000 games have been played by the forum community. That's when we cut off the results and start all over again. As a reminder, at the beginning of the season everyone is given the same number of points - 1500. Look at the individual results of those players who have the highest "productivity" (more than 30 games) https://polly.phys.msu.ru/~shvets/HOMM3/winter2014/rating.html. At the beginning of the season, any player receives 14-16 points for all victories. By the end of the season, strong players receive 1-2 points for winning against outsiders. Obviously, for the correct operation of the formula, it is necessary to increase the number of games (i.e., the duration of the period), for example, on WCL the results are summed up once a year.
- due to the fact that now the seasonal rating strongly depends on the number of games, the tournament medal does not enjoy authority. I hope that the reward earned in six months will be more valuable, and the season will become more prestigious.
- many good players only play in tournaments and not very often, showing excellent results and defeating the strongest; these games, accumulated over a longer period, will have greater weight in the ranking points and allow such players to compete for high places.
- sufficient statistics on castles and templates are not collected in 3 months, but the results for half a year are interesting.
- formally, it is more convenient for players to register once for six months, and not twice, and wait for activation (I don't always react immediately to the application).

Let's try to increase the duration of our tournament and then analyze the results.

I will try to calculate the current rating (as in spring) 1-2 times a month, depending on player activity, so that you can track changes.

Next. Please pay attention to deadlines (they are already written in the spring season):
- there is 1 week to write a report on the game;
- there is also 1 week to confirm the report on the game;
- the deadline for submitting claims about the game is 1 week.


If we want the rating to be updated more often, then we must work together to properly format reports.
Running after those who do not confirm and urging them takes up a lot of time. Therefore, I will introduce sanctions. I will act simply: freeze the player's application, and those who do not confirm will not be able to post games.

So read what is written and, if you agree with the terms, leave an application.

Good luck!

I didn't find anything for control, two guilds gave nothing, the road to the center is through the entrance portal. And the opponent has both Town Portal and Dimension Door only in their home Castle.
Thanks for the game.
confirmed, thanks for the game

I placed nagas in the castle on the first week, on the second I lost all six nagas. The first Dragon Fly Hive I took with various small fry from villages and golems, then it went better. Nila has perfect development, Dragon Fly Hives are being collected. The opponent went on the attack but turned aside toward a Necropolis castle I didn't need (which he later gave to me due to inattention). Nila was already eying the upgraded nagas, while Gurney took the Book of Air from behind the Angels, right after which the opponent unexpectedly surrendered.
Thank you for the game.

A complex and exciting game. I took both restarts, opponent 111. Right away, an inconvenient block appeared on one of the roads: 50+ mummies. I bypassed them, ran along two others, found a stable and an arena, opened the overview, which didn't show anything super cool—a conserve and an external dwelling for goblins and wolves.
At 113, I checked the mummies with Ciel; there weren't many of them, about 55, plus I cut down 12. The rest were finished off by Craig with birds, giving 10k experience. Leveling started poorly at first (healing-keenness at level 3), but then improved; after pathfinding at 6, I got earth at 8 and defense at 9. A market was found.
114 - found an external dwelling for bears off-road behind 20-49 magogs. Craig continued running along the previously blocked road and discovered a library behind a horde of magogs, breaking through with retaliation against 7 orcs. To reach level 10, I attacked 10-19 wyverns for a hive + bag of gold. Wyverns had 18 with gs; they killed some greedy troglodytes, most of the goblins, and 2 birds. Well, the library was worth it.
115 - mini-hive. Crashed into a Tower village, bought a book, took a box for 5k experience for 20 grands. Gave up on tactics.
116 - a box of 35 gr orcs, then a maxi-medusa nest. Alkin takes the external dwelling for bears.
117 - medusa nest at 6. Craig spends the night at the stable. Bears are in the Castle.
121 - Craig doubles mana in the stream. At home is a mix grade; I take Black Shield +5 in far-off lands.
122 - mini-conserve with Darkstorm. Leveling up with Craig, earth isn't finishing. Finishing it on ГО, gr hydras. Then I hit another one, ordinary ones with gs. Galtran is glowing in the center since 121. I scan the earth and decide to go left; Gosha is at the bottom. 1 central castle on the left, 1 at the bottom.
123 - a clue for 8 wyverns and a necklace +3 to all, but due to morale and my own claws, I lose 2 greys.
124 - central Castle, external dwelling for angels, another 3 hives.
125 - prison with Pikedram level 20, a Dragon Utopia found.
126 - Dragon Utopia with red and black spheres; Pikedram breaks the prison with Aeris level 20, then kills 20+ hydras with gs for КВ.
126 blue - Galtran is one step from the Castle.
127 - I finish off a hive, then via ДД take 2 boxes behind gr hydras; forgot to remove the orb and lost all orcs. They gave 5 angels and 10 champions. Also finally find a sword for the hand, 2-2.
Then it's epic: need to fight for a cloak +2 speed, it's in the sands; I manage to fight it off, but can't take it and return. I look into the tavern, and there is Kirry, fired literally a couple of minutes ago with 2800 mp. I use her to take the cloak, then ДД Solmir to the city. Craig crashes and attacks Gosha with the orb and cloak; he buys his way out for about 37k.
Then we gorged. Grabbed another 3 Dragon Utopias, including a maxi, and boots on the ground; they gave КЗ, Sword of Justice, Shield of Lion's Courage. Only a teapot was missing for the Haven alliance.
133 blue - within sight, Galtran grabs the external dwelling for angels.
134 - second FB.
Craig 33-23, +2 speed, leadership and luck exp, tactics, armor, offense, everything as it should be. Oh, yes, and healing)))
12 gr birds, 9 angels, 8 greys, 40 wyverns, 10 champions, 1+65 gr wolves.
Galtran 28-38.
As turned out later, without offense. Also without tactics. Clock for -luck. But with artillery and a golden bow.
12 gr liches, 10 angels, 12 gr dragons, 24 gr horses, 45 wyverns, 550 bones, 25 swordsmen.
We trade off and I buy my way out for around 40k.
Lost 3 angels, 1 bear, all wolves and birds, 1 champ, and 9 wyverns.
Gosha's losses - 5 dragons, 7 angels, 13 horses, ballista, 12 swordsmen.
Then we gorge again. With Kirry, I broke through ГО to the left dungeon respawn. My luck turned here: 4 hives for 44 wyverns and 2 conserves for 6 angels. Put the angels in the center.
136 blue - Galtran flies over to visit again, stops near the Castle.
137 - I grab those same 2 conserves, sell them at the artifact tower for 50k, place and grade archangels, totaling 13 pieces.
137 blue - Gosha attacks the Castle, third FB:
Craig 35-26
7+6 archangels, 3 gr birds, 23 hobgoblins, 75 wyverns, 9 champions, 7 greys.
Galtran 28-38, a spirit of despondency was added to the clock
800 bones, 12 gr liches, 10 gr dragons, 7 angels, 20 fanatics, 47 monarchs, 11 gr horses.
Well, here it was impossible to hack through archangels and ducks, especially without offense. After 2 rounds of fighting, in which I lost 30 wyverns and 1 bear, while the opponent lost 3 dragons, all angels, and 28 monarchs, he writes гг. Thanks for the game!
I confirm, it was an interesting game, thanks for the game

I placed nagas in the castle on the first week, on the second week I lost all six nagas. The first Dragon Fly Hive was cleared using random small fry from villages and golems, then things went better. Nila has perfect leveling, Dragon Fly Hives are being gathered. My opponent went on the attack but veered off towards an unnecessary Necro town (which he later gave me out of carelessness). Nila was already eyeing the upgraded nagas, meanwhile Gurney took the Book of Air from behind the angels, right after which my opponent unexpectedly surrendered.
Thanks for the game.

was thx for the game , being broke starting from the second week finished me off=), went on the attack against the opponent , but didn't make it)

Dragon Fly Hive 50- (9x) was epicly taken by Vale with a rabble of levels 1-4, 3 copies survived, around 113. Next day, Cuthbert with 94 mummies with relief (47 marks and 6 wyverns 3 monks with ballista 2 1 2 2) takes all level 4 magic. Then cleaning of Dwarf Cottage 20x and 3 crypts at 115, checking the hive: (100-). At 116, boots for 94 flyers and Alkin level 5 in prison, cleaning the Dragon Utopia with a scout hero with an angel and marks with a loss of 8 marks. 117 - another hive and checking the hive: (50-).
There were still 4 hives left averaging ~20 wyverns (and 12 in hand), 2 good Pandora's Boxes, equivalent to 10k exp, shield +4, and armor +5 sp, and everything on the way to ГО:. I was planning to hit ГО at 123, 124 without oil. There was no Conflux, and Dragon Utopia was also on the way, if I would take the mini.
Thank you for the game!

Against a pile of cons, with logs on several heroes and KV in the very first Dragon Utopia with expert air, you can't push through. Thanks for the game!

Ulik 50- (9x) epically defeated Valey with a ragtag group of levels 1-4, 3 copies survived, on level 113 or so. The next day, Cuthbert, with 94 mummies and terrain advantage (47 marks and 6 vivas, 3 monks with a ballista 2 1 2 2), took over all the magic of level 4. Then came the clearing of the dwarven mine 20x and 3 crypts on level 115, checking the hive: (100-). On level 116, boots for 94 against a lurker and Alkin level 5 in prison, clearing the hive with a rogue, angel, and marks, losing 8 marks. Level 117 - another hive and checking the hive: (50-).
There were still 4 hives left, averaging ~20 vivas (and 12 on hand), 2 good pandoras, equivalent to 10k experience, a +4 shield, and +5 spell protection armor, and everything was on the way to the Grand Order. I was planning to beat the Grand Order on levels 123, 124 without oil. There were no cons, and no utopias along the way, if I had taken a mini.
Thanks for the game!
It didn't work out, small losses started, and it became uninteresting to continue playing:D :D

On turn 117, in the Dungeon, I found a Hat of the 5th level, but I had nothing to fight with (I didn't have enough movement points to bring reinforcements to defend the important location where the hippos were, and the 12 Monarchs guarding it killed my bear under poison). In short, I lost on a high note :)
Thanks for the game.

On level 117 in the tomb, there's a Hat of the 5th level, but there's nothing to fight with (I didn't have enough movement points to bring reinforcements to defend the important lair of behemoths; the guard of 12 monarchs killed the bear under poison). In short, I lost on purpose, out of excitement :)
Thanks for the game.
The opponent had no more rests left – we started playing. This time, he was leveling up a Shaktar nicely, with 2 lairs of dragons + a portal. His stats were good for the Grand Order, 22 ducks by level 117, and he also dug up +3 speed. Plus, he could have collected an elixir, since there were 3 rings on the respawn point. Thanks for the game!:D

2 mini Griffin Conservatories, 2 Dragon Fly Hives with 20 Wyverns, +1 to speed, +1 spell power, cap +3 knowledge, Angel Feather Arrows, cherry bow. Valya leveled Earth and Log at 111. I fought off boots for 9 gr. with Cyclops in the mire. Knowledge only 5 before entering the corner ГО at 122, by 125 I collected КЗ, +5 attack, shield +6. I ported to restore mana, finished another Pandora's Box with 15 Wyverns and a Dragon Utopia, which gave duplicate КЗ and boots. And the opponent attacks immediately from under 70 Wyverns and a red orb. Parameters are the same. Except I didn't have Offense and my Defense was basic. If I had entered a Mysticism hut or monk, there would have been no need to waste 1.5 days restoring mana, even though I had КЗ, but Valya doesn't seem to get it. Home is 1-6 in the citadel, with street Fish and Air Elementals.
Thanks for the game. :)

2 mini griffin conservatories, 2 dragon fly hives on wyvern, +1 to speed, +1 spell power, hat +3 knowledge, angel feather arrows, cherry bow. Valya on 111 leveled earth and log. In the mud, I looted boots for 9 grivnas with cyclopes. Knowledge only 5 before heading to the corner ГО on 122, by 125 I collected КЗ, +5 offense, shield +6. Ported to restore mana, finished off a pandora's box with 15 wyverns and a dragon utopia, which gave duplicate КЗ and boots. And the opponent immediately attacks with nearly 70 wyverns and a red orb. Stats are identical. Only I had no offense and basic defense. If I had visited some hut or monk for mysticism, there would have been no need to lose 1.5 days on mana recovery, even though I had КЗ, but Valya doesn't seem to get it. Home is 1-6 in citadel, with street fish and air elementals.
Thanks for the game. :)
Came out on 124 with 40+ ducks, 5 dragons (total 6-1 didn't buy, because on week 1 I took 3 dragon flags and 2 more unicorns), 30+ elves, 9 unicorns GC and went. ГО is very easy — 50-99 minotaurs. Well, in the center, the dragon utopia dumped quite a lot and in stacks. Upon exiting, mana was at 3 slows — I looted a hat (level 5), shield +12 (something like -attack, КШ), pandora's boxes — one of them had 6 hydras, another had 1 wyvern, and a bunch of pandora's boxes with experience_). Ivor was well-leveled. Then Valesska runs into the zone of superior magic — I cover her with КШ (since I had an army advantage, and also in stats, she had a bit less_). Thx for the game! :D :D :D
