Yes, you're right. My result is average. Nothing extraordinary. And regarding "promising" about possible improvements, I completely agree. In my opinion, this is exactly the case (I mean the game as a whole) where you can confidently say, "Never say never!" I swear by my triangular..., I mean, my hat!

Please clarify, organizers: can I attack a computer-controlled hero, bribe them, and in the same turn continue moving from the castle?

I'll speak on behalf of the organizers, and I hope they'll forgive my audacity. Initially, it seemed that VDV-forever prohibited continuing the game on the same day with heroes who had fled or bought their way out (not to be confused with those who were dismissed or eliminated). But he was "strongly persuaded," and this rule has been temporarily removed. Why temporarily? Because, as I understand it, this issue, among others, will be discussed after the tournament. For now – it's allowed! Sincerely.

I sent the save file and the walkthrough. Thank goodness, the internet is working now.

Ah... Will I have time? There's absolutely no time. I rarely even visit the forum anymore...

There’s no time. The holidays and fishing are starting :) I’m sending my save file; it’s what I managed to create. I feel like I overcomplicated things :)

I have the same problem... But on top of that, my computer keeps “losing” at this level... :( :smile04: :smile11:

If things get really bad, do it like this: :smile13: :smile33:

P.S. The save file has been sent. I hope to see myself painted black on the fence on the 30th after fishing :)

There's nothing wrong with that. The main thing is that you completed the tournament, meaning you registered and submitted the final save. You kept your word. I respect that! ;)
P.S. Just Bogdan Titomir!

Well... I have a feeling my result will be terrible compared to the leaders again =). But there's still time to improve - I've only played the map once... Maybe the second attempt will be more successful! In general, I think I know the limit of this map... but anything can happen! ;)

Dmitry - I'm honestly a little scared of you! ;) I wonder what surprise you'll have in store this time?

At least you'll have one... :( :smile15: :smile36:

Best regards

What if I was "cheated," does that still count as completing it?!

I will try to help you solve this problem, but unfortunately, only after the tournament is over. I think everything can be resolved by you reviewing the description of the tournament leaders' progress. But again, this will be possible only after the results are summarized.
Sincerely,

I appreciated the joke about Bogdan :) "Look at me - do as I do" :)
Where can I put the "likes"? Haven't you fixed it yet?

So, does that mean "no"? :smile41:

I think reviewing the descriptions of the tournament leaders' playthroughs might help resolve the issue. But again, this will be after the final results are tallied.

Or it might just confuse things even more :) We need to approach the results gradually. First, we need to focus on consistently defeating the AI, regardless of the time taken to complete the game. Although, it seems to me that the longer you play within the time limit, the stronger the AI becomes :)

What if I get "defeated," does that also count as a playthrough?!

Yes, it counts. You still gain experience in some way. But unfortunately, the result won't be accepted :(

Or maybe completely confuse them :) You need to gradually work towards the result. For starters, you just need to get good at defeating the AI, regardless of the time it takes to complete the game. Although, it seems to me that the longer you play within the time limits, the stronger the AI becomes :)

Yes, it counts. You still improve your skills in some way. But unfortunately, the result won't be accepted :(

If it's going to be "line by line," I'll send you a losing save file via email... :(
