I couldn't imagine a more absurd idea, even if I tried really hard.
1) Why would you need to add a timer for yourself? On what basis? Just because you feel like it? That's phenomenal logic, or rather, a complete lack of it.
2) If you're really set on controlling your opponent's "doing nothing," there's a simpler way. Let's say your opponent had 22 minutes left when they crashed, and after reloading, it's 30 minutes. The opponent makes a move without doing anything, and then passes the turn after it's completed. You exit the game, and if needed (and I feel it will be), the opponent sends you their save file after the move for COMPLETE control. Then, they wait 8 minutes and pass the turn. No third parties are needed; the opponent's "doing nothing" is confirmed by loading the save file from before and comparing the actions. It's strange that such a simple method didn't occur to you, but instead, you're adding a timer for yourself. I'd like to say it's like "Woe from Wit," but it's clearly something else entirely.

Isn't trust required in other matters besides passwords? What about disconnections, or streaming? And I'm not even mentioning the fact that some skilled individuals can crack passwords. How did people play without passwords before? :confused:

You probably haven't read Roger's posts in the politics section.
His phenomenal IQ matches his logic, so there's nothing to be surprised about. And everyone who disagrees is just a bunch of simpletons and green kids.

A tough start with winding roads and terrible guards dragged the game out significantly, despite the perfectly leveled Kyrre I only managed to take on the level-three Griffin Conservatory on grass by month 2 week 4, while my opponent with Titan from Refugio was running around from the very first turns... :eek: in the end, after a quick run through one of the treasure zones, I immediately went to the central one, 2 Dragon Utopias with mediocre artifacts, not enough stats, no control, took my opponent's main, and back to my own treasure zones, big-scale racket was going on, saved by a town gate scroll on the ground, and then reconnaissance reported that in the corner of the already explored first treasure zone there was also a Vessel of Might lying, GM5 of course gave nothing except the ability to use a flight scroll taken in advance, from the second [utopia] I had an external dwelling of dragons with a portal, but I only managed to place dragons on turn 4, in the end I gave out quests for Flax's army, took [and] equipped artifacts for +25% shooting + Golden Bow, 75 Stormies, 100 Ice Maidens, 55 Grands, 77 Monarchs + 32 regular ducks, 30 Green Serpents, and 13 Black Dragons, Elixir of Life, Ballista, 31 37 vs Tazar 22 43, 85 Monarchs, 9 Archmagi, 115 Lizardmen, 45 Orcs, and singles, poison procced successfully + more HP, more battle stacks allowed a confident victory in the final, thanks for the game

I don't understand why these kinds of situations even arise in games. If you don't trust your opponent, what's the point of playing? To monitor someone doing nothing? What kind of nonsense is that? All games are built on trust and mutual understanding. Roger, why do you constantly have some kind of conflict with everyone? I don't understand. Enjoy the game, instead of arguing. Best wishes to everyone.

Roman, first of all, this is a tournament, and I'm not choosing; secondly, this isn't a quarrel! It's an attempt to create a systematic approach to saves and crashes. Basically, Kostya monitored 5-6 minutes of inactivity, and that's what caused all the fuss. You can reinvent the wheel every time, or you can discuss it once and incorporate it into the rules, and there won't be any problems.
Maybe I'm wrong, and my option with the bonus isn't the best.

I won't write about Zloy; I'll just say that as an OFB judge, he's not in his element, and he's been told that before. I don't know what "moshnenie" means. If he, as a judge, had said that he would be watching, then that's what would have happened. But some of his statements border on arbitrariness and ANARCHY!

For those who like to read about politics, write about it there!

If anyone wants to compete in IQ, no problem, let's post the results.


Also, I wish everyone GOODNESS, PEACE, and HEALTH!

Opponent surrendered, I don't know why, they never offered a pass.
Thanks for the game!

I spent a long time choosing between the smka and 6lm10a. We chose all rests and luck. At 111, in order to break through anywhere, I was forced to hit 10+ storms - successfully. Plenty of caches of everything except horses. Exit to the crossroads via off-road. Strategically, 2 dungeons against 3 Ramparts. A very difficult game in week 2-3, the first Dragon Utopia in week 4, although the second one was КЗ. Then a fat super-treasure which I cleared in 3 goes. All books were found, but stats are very poor. The opponent had a double from week 2; I made a mistake and the AI reclaimed the double. Later I managed to get the double back and even took a third Rampart. Maximum of 10 dragons, though due to mindless play I lost about 5 of them. In week 7, the opponent took all castles. At 236 FB, the opponent had 47 angels (lucky there was no Castle), AA which didn't work and an elixir; I don't know how I carried it, stats were roughly equal, more likely by meat with 135 ducks and 29 gold ones, plus morale mostly went only to me.

Thank you for the game and for the gentlemanly behavior!
Thank you for the game!

I was choosing for a long time between SM and 6lm10a. In the end, all the rest chose, and it turned out well. On turn 111, I was forced to use 10+ storms just to break through – luckily, it worked. There were plenty of hiding spots, except for the horses. I made my way to the crossroads through the rough terrain. Strategically, 2 Dungeons against 3 Ramparts. It was a very tough game in weeks 2-3, with the first major battle happening in week 4, although it was in the second castle. After that, there was a large super-treasure that I looted in 3 turns. I got all the books, but the stats were not very good. The opponent had a double castle from week 2, and I made a mistake and the computer blocked it. Then I managed to get the double castle back and even added a third Rampart. I had a maximum of 10 dragons, but due to poor play, I lost about 5 of them. In week 7, the opponent took all my castles. On turn 236, the opponent had 47 angels (I was lucky that there were no castles), an Archangel that didn't work, and an Elemental. I don't know how I managed to win, the stats were roughly equal, but I had more units: 135 ducks and 29 gold, plus the morale was mostly on my side.

Thank you for the game and for the gentlemanly behavior!

Thank you for the game and for the gentlemanly conduct!

Looks like my lessons weren't in vain :D

Took 111 and started.
I played the game because of the boots + gloves behind breakthrough guards, and took them on 113. The map surprised me with a complete lack of objects; the first Dragon Fly Hive was found on 124 (minimum), by which point 50% of the surface and a small piece of the underground had been revealed, 5-6 villages had been painted, and two computers had been killed, including the Castle, where I immediately built an Angel (thankfully the income was around 7k). From there, a fortunate passage into a good treasure zone (with that same Dragon Fly Hive) and the Hat on day 5, behind good guards — 80 chests, with 10 ducks and 1 angel we broke through decently, with the loss of a couple of Wyverns and some overeating. The dwarf in the beginning greatly disappointed with his skills — resistance, archery, wisdom, but later he improved — attack + earth + tactics. Opponent scouted this treasure zone from a lookout, saw me taking the Hat, and decided to capitulate.

Thanks for the game!
