It finally dawned on me where I messed up.
I can't even count on the top spots anymore.

Well, no matter, we'll make it up in the next tasks. ;)

It is obvious that many of the "veterans" rushed to submit their final result, for which they will pay with their overall score. If this isn same as a school, then there are also rumors that experienced players have nothing to learn here—well, they certainly do.
I think we will eventually resolve the rating issue positively, and therefore such mistakes will strike a painful blow to... well, hit the vanity of many leaders via their ratings :). An indispensable school.

Catch up, you must catch up ;) .

And what if you fire Monera and buy him again? There's nothing that says you can't do that. Would it be possible to gather all the family heroes and have more money? I think so.

What about Moner, who also has basic logistics, meaning his initial MP=1760*10%=1936
No, Moner's MP is not 1936, but 1760 as written. And those 10% are, I assume, the hero's specialty, since his specialty isn't logistics, but psych

And also, I think this concerns everyone: how are rating points awarded? And why, for example, do they add sometimes 5 and sometimes 6 points, and how is all of this calculated in general (I don't mean the same as placements)?

Yes, I would very much like to hear what exactly is being discussed. Personally, I am very interested in how one can accumulate such a large amount of gold without violating the rules of this Blitz Tournament.
We are talking about the "dismiss-buyout" tactic: when purchasing a dismissed hero, their movement points become 2000.
This tactic is prohibited on our portal.

And also, I think this concerns everyone: how are rating points awarded? And why, for example, are 5 or 6 points added, and how is all of this calculated (I don't mean the places)? And what does the red font color mean, that the save is not counted or what?
The rating is calculated using the following formula:
k=100-[(100/N)*(R-1)]
where
R – the player's rank,
N – the number of ranks

5 or 6 is simply rounding; an Excel file with the calculation is attached below, you can take a look.

The red font color means that the save is not counted.

Sincerely.

Actually, yes. Here, either both should be given basic logistics, or neither should. But in any case, Moner will have the highest starting value, which is what we're talking about.

Here's a question: if Moner is fired and then bought again, since there's nothing written that says you can't do that, can you gather all the heroes into one family and have more money? I think so.
That's an interesting way to think about it. There's nothing written about using cheats either... so should we use them too?

When a hero is fired/bought, we get an infinite turn... If you're allowed to use this, then in this case, everyone should be given the opportunity to replay the task, taking this correction into account...
All participants in the tournament will have your result. Everyone will be in first place... But what's the point?

And in general, this point has been discussed many times on the forum, and everyone considers it a bug (in any case, no one argues with this statement), so just accept the "unfinished" rules of the first stage of the blitz and we won't return to this issue in the future... The rules will clearly define what is allowed and what is not.

Since I didn't use the heroes from the Conflux and the Dungeon, I completed the map without them... although I had to hire one more hero (i.e., 7 heroes + 1 starting hero)... The result: 1 day, 225 gold... Although it's possible to complete the map with 6 heroes (including the heroes from the Conflux - a money-maker and another hero), I haven't tested this yet... If you want, try completing the map without Elementals and the Dungeon; let's see how you do ;);):)... - I'm telling you right away - it's very fun =).

Besides the money-maker, the 2 fastest heroes (for 1 day) are Pir and... then (I don't know exactly) Gunnar or Desser, then Kirr (1 move less than Gunnar, I checked this on this map)... and the Elementals - I don't know how fast they move (i.e., I know they're fast, but I don't know by how much)...

___Sincerely, RAP___

P.S.: The heroes from the Conflux are currently mining, and I want to thank AmberSoler for that.

Mikki and _Lexx_ sent their save files on the 17th at 02:28 and 01:58 respectively.
The discussion about the walkthrough started on the forum at 01:07.
Question: how should we proceed? Should we accept the save files or not?


That's exactly why I'm against lengthy discussions about the walkthrough before the preliminary results are published, after which it will be clear which save files have been accepted for consideration and which have not. We need to make an amendment to the rules now or

Since I didn't recruit heroes from the Conflux and Dungeon, I completed the game without them.
What about Dess? He should have been available for recruitment regardless... How is it now? Did you configure the Conflux?

Yes, everything is working now... As for Dessa, I don't know... I didn't look into it... I only tried with one hero... it's as if the game recruited him on its own =DDD I didn't know what to do... ;))
Now everything is working, thanks a lot... and the mine is working too (I just had to change the language in the mine settings to English).

So, what about the next stage, and when will any information about the next event appear (date, deadlines, tasks, etc.)? P.S. I just can't wait to find out what they have in store for us this time!

Good day, esteemed tournament participants! I am almost 90% sure that the winner will be the player who: 1) Mined the Moner. 2) Visited the stables and watermill with him. 3) Captured the Crystal Cave and nearby resources with him, or the Gem Mine and nearby mercury deposits. P.S. I wrote about this before, but then I deleted my post :D. Because why reveal all the cards :D. Personally, I couldn't mine him (I dug for 30 minutes, got tired, and didn't have enough time). :( That's how mysterious this Moner is! :) Sincerely, VDV_forever

....aren't the results already posted or am I mistaken?? /topic/at/90264/
or is this just a rating???

Funny :) . I'm in first place. And as usual, I share my rating with IronAxe:D :D :D This time it’s gold instead of mercury:D

I must say, my mood has improved, thanks to AmberuSoleru for the map and Kyle for organizing the tournament!;

And yet, you can increase the result by exactly +500 gold.;)

Request: Kyle, please post the preliminary results in the topic:
Official Tournament Results.

P.S. I love puzzles:smile10:

P.P.S. Going to celebrate my friend getting his driver's license:smile13:

The save and map will be uploaded today before 6:00 PM Moscow time. The completion time will be standard – until May 23rd (inclusive). The task will again test your knowledge of logistics (but this time, for real, and not like in the first stage, where everything boiled down to summoning the necessary heroes), plus you'll have to fight a few unpleasant battles... But everything is solvable. :) Let's wait for the start.

Were you just talking about yourself? :D
Regarding point 3 – are these the furthest distances on the map?

I'm quoting myself here:) :

Sorry, I didn't read it all. It was a very long post... :o
So, the prediction didn't come true.
