Could you please explain what Alexander G.K.'s result is? I need to calculate the rankings.

The application was submitted in advance. However, due to technical reasons, it was not displayed on the forum. To be precise, we also had something to dispute in the previous tournament, but we prefer to play Heroes fairly, rather than looking for ways to find fault.

to Alex_R: answer to your question:
Qwerty

According to updated information, he experienced some kind of malfunction, due to which the message with a request for registration was not published on the forum.
He was unaware of this.

But, in general, we are waiting for VDV_forevor's verdict....

Sincerely.

Do you think that's what I'm doing? You're wrong. I also prefer honesty over results, which is why I brought up this issue...
Or do you need me to explain what can be done by "slightly" delaying the sending of the save file?

P.S. Let's wait for VDV_forever!

I'm posting save files for the end/beginning of each in-game day,
as I don't have time to write a walkthrough for the map
(so far, I have it ready for 5 days, and I'll finish the remaining 2 closer to night).

The fact that it was due to technical reasons is understandable. But when he sent the result, as Alex_R points out, he should have at least found out his number in that table. The organizer should have made the appropriate correction or announcement. But I think Richard's result should be counted (it's not such a serious violation, and the person tried and completed it, especially since VDV provided a preliminary result), but in the future, everyone should pay attention to ensuring that they know their application has been accepted. I would also like to point out that many people are now understanding why preliminary results are needed, which organizers should post on the forum

Okay, so we've reached this point. Should I ask someone for a save file after the battle...? Maybe even ask someone for a save file from the day before?! We've waited long enough :((((
What about you, how is your situation with this?

Good day, dear tournament participants!

1) The results are preliminary, and it's too early to say who is right and who is wrong.
2) Richarda I's save will be considered, as he did submit an application, albeit in a different thread. He simply couldn't register in the thread for the 3rd stage due to a forum malfunction (this happens very rarely), so there's no need to punish him for it. This won't happen again; I can vouch for him. This participant has repeatedly demonstrated fair play, earning respect not only from me but also from many other tournament participants.
3) Even the most experienced can make mistakes (this applies to me); I forgot to assign Richardu I the number 47... it has been corrected.
4) Thank you, Alex_R, for the tip.
5) Alexander G.K. has no result yet, as the save is not final. It's too early to calculate the rating; the final results will be available in 2-3 days.
6) I am still waiting for your suggestions, wishes, and complaints regarding the tournaments held on www.heroesworld.ru in the thread TOURNAMENT MATTERS! I will also be happy to hear your opinions in the thread CONCEPT OF IMPLEMENTING GRAILS ON THE FORUM! All of them will be taken into account when the final rules for all tournaments held on www.heroesworld.ru are approved. To anticipate, after the Van Kanighem tournament, we plan to develop a script for each of the tournaments. This will significantly simplify the lives of users and tournament organizers.
7) Announcement:
We are looking for organizers for offline tournaments for the following Heroes games:

Heroes 1, Heroes 3, Heroes 4, Heroes 5
Please send your resumes to VDV_forever or via PM.

Sincerely, VDV_forever

But there are heroes with tents that have UNLIMITED medical supplies. And this thing also has its quirks, which VDV pointed out in the Tournament Preparations thread.
Iron Axe, didn't you think that the tent uses healing magic, not medical supplies?

Although I haven't read anything justifying this situation, out of respect for VDV and Qwerty, I will leave this matter unresolved....

I understand that everyone is good, but FIREBALL, you're a genius!!! I'll have to study your walkthrough (for general knowledge), but the main thing is that you're the only one who did it! Definitely a MEGA PORTAL!!!

Sorry for the off-topic... :smile43:
Alex_R;86781
P.S. I think I have a guess... who is this malicious rule-breaker with the nickname Richard? :smile28:
So, who is it? Please enlighten me... :D I'm very curious myself... :D

I've checked out his walkthrough... respect. "Fireball" solved the mana issue quite well... and built the guild quickly... the only thing is that he made so many zigzags on the map... I'm surprised how he managed to do it in such a short time... =))) I destroyed all the heroes because I thought that the creatures guarding the portal to the Dungeon would be scarier than the Dungeon creatures themselves... =))

I, like probably all the other participants in the Tournament,
considered the option of destroying the Crystal Dragon + Zombie Dragon.

But in the end, I rejected it.
And all because I didn't know that the ammunition cart
increases the number of shots to infinity,
I used to think that it increased the shots by 12-24 units.
Now I'll definitely remember that...

I was also afraid of a battle with the Crystal Dragon on cursed land.
But, as it turned out later (I checked),
8-9 angels destroy these dragons without losses
due to the combination of spells
Expert Shield + Expert Stone Skin + Healing (not necessarily Expert).

And here, the 6-day result seems realistic to me.
RAPER is right, he messed something up with Fireball.
It would have been possible to give Desse the Pathfinding skill, visit Utopia
and eliminate the dragons (possibly capturing the green castle along the way).

In any case - to Fireball - respect! :) probably few people expected
such a fast result with the dragons being eliminated.

P.S. to VDV_forever: I sent the walkthrough description.
