Hi all,
I'm "inactive" from gamerhome.net(GH) in China. Hope this message finds you all well.
As one of the moderators at GH, I'm mainly responsible for communicating with StickyFingaz to organize the match between GH and HeroesWorld.ru.
I hope to clarify a few things here, since there seem to be some misunderstanding from both sides.
1. About restart after dropping
In GH official games, it is a tradition that we follow opponent's decision after one player drops at his own turn. The opponent can propose one of the following solution for the judge/referee to consider: 1) allow a load, 2) request a restart, or 3) even ask the judge to declare his victory (though the judge usually try to make a restart). The decision is nothing related to the judgment of the dropped player's trustworthiness. It's just a tradition, very simple. You guys can look at it this way: it is a reward to those players with better network connection :-)
Well, as for the game between Pit & Lowk, Lowk chose a restart.
Sticky told me your tradition is to load autosave in any situation.
So I understand that Pit would be pissed off. I'm here to say that it's nothing personal. Neither Lowk or I, or any other GH team members, questioned the trustworthiness of Pit. We all respect Pit's taking time out of his business schedule to make that match possible, and even agreeing a restart after a long game. At the same time, we also respect Lowk's effort in this game, staying up all night fighting. And, we, THE WHOLE GH TEAM and NEARLY EVERY SINGLE MEMBERON THE GH FORUM, respect his decision for a restart.
Your rules about dropping are also respected, and we will use your rule for your home game. I think your rule is fine and fair. Hopefully you guys can understand that the rules based on our tradition are fair as well. If our player drops, it is up to your player to propose a solution for the judge/referee to consider.
2. About the rumors
The best rumor in the world is composed of 95% truth and 5% lie. I don't want to get involved in the endless arguments about what are truths and what are lies. But here are three FACTS:
1) Most people on GH forum supported Lowk's decision.
2) Most GH team members will do the same in the similar situation.
3) One person got banned for ONLY one day (he could not post anything on GH during that short period of time), due to personal attack.
3. About the match
I think both sides, HW and GH are under some pressure, to win. I would like to make a proposal. Let's make the whole match for friendship, and stop counting the score. I think it might relieve players from the pressure. It would be best if we can have more communications.
Finally, thank you for taking time reading my message. I wish you all best luck.
inactive
Assuming everything inactive says here is sincere: if "none of you" questioned the trustworthiness of PIT then it doesn't make any sense how "most of you" would have refused to allow PIT the chance to save and load. Plus, PIT did have a screenshot where his hero's name contains Chinese symbols, which is a valid proof, but again, some of you did say that "the screenshot could have been photoshopped".
It's sad how inactive would come here and explain that he banned me for defaming Lowk. I mean, how could someone defame Lowk in this situation? hmmm, let's see..."hey Lowk, you didn't allow PIT to load, therefore you...suck?" you know what, this is none of the Russians' business so I am not going to keep arguing and cause a scene.
Good luck with the match and everything, to both sides.
edit: I read inactive's response again, I am speechless, and here is why:
"Reward for people with a better connection"? Come on, that's just lame. You play a 5-hour heroes3 game, in the end you win because you have cable connection and your opponent has dial-up?
Also regarding: "respect Lowk's effort in this game, staying up all night fighting". As I mentioned earlier in the Chinese message board, Lowk had a chance to NOT staying up all night long: that is, allow PIT to save and load, but he chose to start a new game (after 4 hours). But on the other hand, PIT allowed Lowk to load when Lowk disconnected in the second game.
