Actually, the calculated value is being rounded. And it's all correct there.

I.e., 23.52941 is rounded to 24, and 76.47059 is rounded to 76. Look closely at the formula.
The step (in this case) equals 100/17 (because players managed to achieve 17 different results).
Nope! According to the rules of mathematics, it's still incorrect. ....,047 — this number is rounded to ....,05 — and that in turn to 1! If we are speaking strictly by the rules.
P.S. Just so you don't think I'm fussing over my own rating — it's just correct that way! And 2 other people have the same result. But it is simply mathematically INCORRECT — I maintain!

P.S. Just so you don't think I'm worried about my own rating – it's just the correct thing to do! And two other people have the same result. But it's mathematically INCORRECT – I insist!
That's not quite right...

Hello, what on earth...
Rounding can be performed on a number only ONCE... otherwise we end up with the number 0.4444444444444445 rounding to 1, even though according to the rules, only a number no less than 0.5 can round to 1!

Hmm... so, in your post, you provided a value with more than one digit after the decimal point, and based on that, the rounding done by the respected Kyle was also incorrect. I just showed how, I'm sure, it should be done correctly ;) I know the rules of rounding very well from my school days :D You need to round from the LAST digit - and you go from right to left... try it ;)

Thank you to the organizers for the interesting challenge and for hosting the tournament. I can only say that it was a battle with myself (without an excavator). And I won!

Often, victory over oneself is much more difficult than victory over opponents.
Sincerely

Hello, here we go...
Rounding can be performed on a number only ONE time... otherwise, we have a situation where the number 0.4444444444444445 rounds up to 1, even though according to the rules, only a number no less than 0.5 can round up to 1!

Respectfully.
It's possible... but usually people don't do that... It's like scales - a small weight on one side tips the balance in that direction

Added after 1 minute
P.S. In general, I don't intend to argue - because the result isn't critical.. This is a question of mathematics - and not the game! Therefore, if the organizers want it that way - let it be!...

The thing is, only Moner is capable of such a twisted strategy:D
Just look:
reach the stable, visit the mill, take the mine! + nearby resources. No one else has managed to do that.:(
I assumed that only Moner was capable of such a thing, but I couldn't dig him up, unfortunately:mad:
Sincerely, VDV_forever
Then, with everyone else gone, there will be no one to take the oil field and all the associated resources along the way and nearby. That's where my Moner used to go :)
But he couldn't take the mill along that route. And the others even less so :)

This is where my Moner went :)
By the way, where is the promised Теремок?

I uploaded it. And have you checked whether receiving troops from an ally works on the patched version?

Can you explain in plain language what exactly needs to be done? Read your explanation and think if a normal person can understand it? :) I didn't understand anything... just a bunch of insults... :)

What exactly and where do you need to do it? Are you talking about the description or about exchanging troops with allies? :)
If you're talking about the description, then everything is clear there: who went where, what they took, and which mine + the final save. And if you're talking about how to exchange with an ally, then where are the insults? It's all perfectly clear there. Tell me more specifically what you didn't understand. Insults :) I'm not on the portal, with damn oatmeal and serfs :)

IronAxe, author, write more! It's funny!
Thank you for the detailed and beautiful description.
I don't have time to write it out :) And you can ask VDV for my description of the old Tournament 5 walkthrough if he hasn't lost it yet. There was a little bit of profanity, but it was relevant. So VDV himself laughed, but he didn't decide to post it :)

I'm talking about exchanging troops. Let me explain. I took one unit of each type, placed them, and transferred them to empty cells belonging to the ally. That's it. Nothing else can be done with the ally. The ally's unit icons are not active. They only highlight when I select the same unit type. So, I can replenish them. But I can't take them back or replace them.

Their unit icons are inactive. They only light up when I select the same unit. Meaning, I can replenish, but I cannot take or replace.
I have The Shadow of Death 3.0 and it works there — which means they fixed it, out of stupidity :) It used to be a feature :)
But why isn't anything written in the doc about this being patched? Now it will be considered a bug. But actually, then why leave that exchange window with the ally at all, and even leave the ability to give troops only one way? In the unpatched version, even this feature worked better :) Maybe this became a bug after the patch :)

IronAxe is right. I'm also quite familiar with this feature. I remember that it was available in some versions, but not in others. I can't say anything more specific – a lot of time has passed.
