GUARD!!!
I only have internet access at work.
Today I brought a floppy disk with a save file, but it won't read at all!!!
What should I do?
I can send Alan my result via private message, and upload the save file as proof on Monday.
Is that possible?

Save uploaded. This playthrough is dedicated to VDV_forever; I'll explain why after the tournament ends.

Alan, I am vouching for Zingel. As proof, the creation date of the save file can be used – if he sends the save file on Monday, you can check the creation date and confirm that he indeed finished the playthrough on time. Indeed, no one is immune to a floppy disk failure; I had such an incident once... However, I will tell you about this case at the online meeting if you invite me sometime.

The creation or modification date of the file can be easily changed (after all, I was a programmer 13 years ago :)).
The most realistic option is for me to state where my final hero is located, what day it is, or describe the final battle.

A description of the final battle, I think, will be enough to confirm that I have completed the map at the moment and will not replay it over the weekend.

2 Zingel Send me the description in a private message, and I'll accept your save on Monday. 2 Qwerty Save received. (I will definitely invite you). And at the same time, I'm warning everyone that the weekend (or rather, Sunday) is completely packed for me, so don't expect the results before Tuesday.

I'm sending the save file. The result is, of course, not what I hoped for.

I sent the virtual (text) save in a private message :)
Please let me know when you receive it, and if the save has been read...

I think a description of the final battle will be enough to confirm that I have completed the map at the current time and will not replay it over the weekend.

With the date, you can actually create any date. But the option suggested by Zingel himself is quite realistic and honest. I believe that the save can be accepted under these conditions, perhaps a little later.
