Hello, friends! It's time for us to once again embark on a harsh campaign. To test our martial skill and valor in practice. I am gathering experienced crusaders and recruits under my banner. Welcome to a tournament where you yourself choose your favorite template and timer. But your opponent can do the same.

Official Tournament, held according to the Rules for Organizing, Conducting, and Participating in HOMM3 Online Tournaments
Game version SoD 3.2 (4.0) +HD-mod.
Game rules - Rules for Online Games in Heroes III and the Seasonal Ranking Tournament.
Tournament Organizer - Roger DAltavilla ICQ 624681987
Tournament Judge - Pit for LM ICQ 471401475

Regulations
The tournament is held using a round-robin system. Each participant chooses their favorite template and timer. In rounds where you play as red, the game is played on your template, and the opponent strikes out castles first. In blue rounds, the opposite applies.
To participate in the tournament, you must have already played in some competition on HeroesWorld or have 5 confirmed reports in the season.
Time per round - 2 weeks.

Template (map) selection criteria: any template already used in a tournament is acceptable.
Time limit criteria: no less than 4 min and no more than 10 min. If you absolutely insist on a chess timer, it must be adequate within the 4-10 min framework without battle time. Adequacy is to be coordinated with the organizer.

Transition between tournament stages. The Crusade consists of 3 stages: autumn, winter, and spring. Each stage is held using a round-robin system. To advance to a more prestigious group, you must achieve a higher position within your group. The following criteria are considered (in descending order of importance): 1 - position achieved (a clean position is valued higher than a shared one), 2 - Berger coefficient, 3 - Elo rating earned in the Crusade.
Additional conditions. Between stages, the following are permitted: leaving the tournament, joining it, changing your favorite template and timer. Before the end of registration, a participant has the right to change their template and timer.

The tournament application should look like this:
I request to be registered for the tournament

Awards

Respectively: award for the signature, for victory in the 1st group, 2nd group, 3rd group, from the 4th to the 7th groups, and an award for all played games.

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE AND LOTS OF FUN!

On September 11th, the player Vatya contacted me with a request to set a mandatory date for finishing the game with Dima_Surmay. There were suspicions that Dima_Surmay was deliberately delaying his turns, taking advantage of the classic timer. On the same day, I spoke with Dima_Surmay, and he told me which days and times would be convenient for him to finish the game. Vatya found it difficult to name a convenient time within the next month. I suggested postponing this issue for a few days, hoping that the emotions would subside and the game would be finished in a friendly atmosphere. On September 21st, Dima_Surmay reminded me that a date for finishing the game needed to be set and again named the days and times that were convenient for him. On the same day, I spoke with Vatya, and he again found it difficult to name the days and times that were convenient for him to play. As a result, I scheduled the game to be finished on September 27th at 6:00 PM Moscow time. Today, the player Vatya arrived for the game 15 minutes before the scheduled time, and the player Dima_Surmay arrived at 6:04 PM. Based on the 4-minute delay, the player Vatya demanded that he be awarded the victory and refused to finish the game. I, Roger DAltavilla, the tournament organizer of "The 2nd Crusade," considering all the circumstances, guided by the tournament rules and my own sense of fairness, have decided: To disqualify the participant Vatya from the tournament for unsportsmanlike conduct. The decision can be appealed to the Arbitration Committee.

Good point. Where is my unsportsmanlike conduct? If I had written to you at 18:15 or 18:55 instead of 18:01, it would have been the same. And I didn't demand a tech-forfeit for myself; I initially asked for this issue to be organized somehow. I don't need a victory over Dima; I just don't want to play with him, that's all. You scheduled an ODD, set a time and date, what's the problem? Roger, as soon as I wrote to you and you asked for a few minutes, Dima appeared. Are you his reminder service?

Roger DAltavilla
Missing an ODD = tech-forfeit.


Although, it wasn't my suggestion.

Added 6 hours 23 minutes ago
In short, the dialogue was as follows:
Roger DAltavilla (12:13:49 21/09/2014)
I want to schedule an ODD for you.
Roger DAltavilla (12:14:03 21/09/2014)
I'm checking when it's convenient for you to play next week.
Vatya (12:14:11 21/09/2014)
Well, yes. Schedule it, but for November.
Roger DAltavilla (12:14:29 21/09/2014)
Why?
Roger DAltavilla (12:14:44 21/09/2014)
Can you play next week?
Vatya (12:14:49 21/09/2014)
Well, because I'm not obligated to play with him next week.
Vatya (12:15:30 21/09/2014)
I am obligated to finish the game with him, though.
Vatya (12:17:03 21/09/2014)
The planned completion date is 24.11.2014 (autumn stage).
Roger DAltavilla (12:17:29 21/09/2014)
Okay.
Vatya (12:17:45 21/09/2014)
Next week, it won't be an ODD.
Roger DAltavilla (12:17:58 21/09/2014)
Then I won't schedule an ODD.
Vatya (12:17:58 21/09/2014)
It will be another headache.
Roger DAltavilla (12:18:12 21/09/2014)
In November, contact him yourself and agree to finish the game.
Roger DAltavilla (12:18:25 21/09/2014)
If you don't agree, you'll get a tech-forfeit.
Vatya (12:18:30 21/09/2014)
He needs it, so let him contact you.

Then it turns out like this:
Roger DAltavilla
A mandatory date for completing the game has been set in the Dima_Surmay vs Vatya match: Saturday, September 27, 18:00 Moscow time. Participants must play for at least 5 hours.

Then I asked again what would happen after the ODD and received the answer:
Roger DAltavilla
Missing an ODD = tech-forfeit.

Added 33 seconds ago

No, there's plenty of time. But both participants asked to schedule an ODD.

Then the following dialogue follows:
Vatya (18:01:27 27/09/2014)
http://c2n.me/iZ9YJf
Vatya (18:01:46 27/09/2014)
Hi, by the way.
Roger DAltavilla (18:01:52 27/09/2014)
Hi.
Vatya (18:02:20 27/09/2014)
According to the rules.
Vatya (18:02:27 27/09/2014)
ODD.
Roger DAltavilla (18:02:47 27/09/2014)
Let's wait a few minutes.
Vatya (18:02:53 27/09/2014)
No problem.
Vatya (18:03:08 27/09/2014)
Will you call him? :)
Vatya (18:07:03 27/09/2014)
This isn't right.

And then, in a flash, Dima appears... Suddenly, as in a fairy tale, the door creaked open..

thanks for the game!
The game just didn't go well somehow. External dwelling of horses and 2 elves on the respawn, we're playing. Only one conflux was found during the whole game, a two-slot one. 2 hives totaling 20 vivs were taken on the 2nd week, then every single viv was lost in a three-slot Dragon Utopia. I needed to take them urgently — Valya's parameters in the tavern are off the charts. The treasure zone is absurd — in the boxes it's either level 1 magic or two level 2s with 45 harpies. At home, I built up to level 5 Mage Guild; in the dungeon village — 4. Of all the useful things — only the meteoritka )) I didn't have time to crush Kiryukha before he reached another Dragon Utopia — Valya arrived from the other side. If only it were a day later... In the end, I dug in at 147 in the Castle, hurriedly forgetting to equip the spirit of same and air buffs (by the way, Kirry's air was never fully upgraded). And even without that, there was practically nothing to oppose 15 archmagi.
Thanks for the game.

I took two restarts against two weak players, and my opponent didn't touch his restarts. In the end, it turned out great: 6 hives on the map, a castle with a logo, several good artifacts (helmet +3, sword +2+2, cloak of defiance), maximum conservation, and at level 116, I faced the Guardian of Order with 80+ mana and 3300 MP. Javdet, at his level 116, runs to the center and sits in the central castle to replenish mana. I manage to eat half of the center with my level 117, thanks to excellent luck – a dimmer with an expert logo helps a lot. I get boots +2 all, a box with 5 angels, a box with 3 archons, and I reach the castle where the Crag is located – there's no other option, his stats are still decent, but his army is an order of magnitude different. Thanks for the game!

Dear organizers, judges, and everyone involved in this matter. I have repeatedly voiced my request, but it seems it hasn't been understood... I don't want to play against Dima. I am willing to discuss this issue, willing to compromise, willing to play against anyone else, even Maretti. I am open to a dialogue on this topic. The organizers are not willing to engage in a dialogue and have made a decision based on their own judgment. Fine, if that's how it's going to be, we'll just follow the rules. In the ODD, my opponent didn't show up, as shown in the attached screenshot. What unsportsmanlike behavior am I exhibiting? Where am I demanding a technical defeat?

Even if he had shown up, I would have spent 5 hours in the match, and that's it. Honestly, I fall asleep between turns... We're playing a game we love, not trying to wear down our opponent...

No, I'm willing to play against him, but only with a chess clock...

On respawn 3, there were 3 hives scattered, totaling 22 units and 4-4 armor. In the main building, considering the Earth expert, only the Stone Skin spell was available. As a result, I reached the center with 123 units, accelerating without mass magic, against Rogues and Outcasts. We defeated some units and gained some meat. Then, in the same turn, a Crag joined me. I took the castle in the center of the hives with 8 units and retreated home for mana. The opponent reached the castle and settled there. I reappeared near my Grove in the tavern, which was present there, with stats 10-16-4-70, retraining for shield and slow with a Scholar. I reached the Crag with 10-7-7-25.
There were 8 black bears, 24 units, 1 angel, 9 fairies in one stack, and 1 griffin.
I had 28 Monarchs, 24 Lizards, 4 Vasas, 4 Hydras, 1 angel, 14 Gnolls, and 2 snakes.
The opponent didn't have haste.
GG.
Thanks for the game.

As a result, I reached the center with 123 speed, accelerating without mass magic, against Rogues and Outcasts. We defeated some life and creatures. Then, in the same turn, Crag joined me. I took the Castle in the center of the hives with 8 life and retreated home for mana. The opponent reached the Castle and settled there. I respawned near my Garrison in the tavern, which was present there, with stats 10-16-4-70, retraining Shield and Slowing with a Scholar. I reached Crag with 10-7-7-25.

Thank you for the game.
Excellent respawn point. Crag leveled up like a god, but it wasn't possible to acquire mass magic. I reached 122, but I didn't risk fighting the Fairies along the way, so I had to go around them. Then, the path led me to the entrance to the enemy respawn point. Thank you for the game.

Took two reinforcements for two weak generations, didn't touch the opponent's reinforcements. As a result, it turned out great, 6 hives on the reserve, a dwelling with a logo, several good artifacts (helmet+3, sword+2+2, cloak of renunciation), maxed out conservation, and at level 116, I faced the Guardian of Order with 80+ mana and 3300 MP.
Javdet, at his level 116, runs to the center, sits in the central castle to replenish mana. I manage to eat half of the center with my level 117, thanks to excellent logistics - a dimmer with an expert logo helps a lot, I get boots +2 all, a box with 5 angels, a box with 3 archons, I reach the castle where the krieg is holed up - no options, the stats are still more or less even, but the army differs by an order of magnitude.

Thanks for the game!

If the color wasn't blue, I might have been able to compete. But as it is, it was a one-sided game.

Thanks for the game.
