    The tournament is over. Thanks everyone for participating. Congratulations to:
    @Neytron & @Ctrl-K for winning 1st place, custom avatar & 70$
    @Lunyshko & @Terminal for taking 2nd place, faction face/logo avatar & 50$
    @GingerbreadMan & @F-Odin for taking 3rd place, faction logo avatar & 30$

    I've been overwhelmed by multiple requests from players. Someone didn't show up, someone was late, someone forfeited, someone get banned in the middle of the tournament. This lead to a difficult decisions to ensure competitive & fair bracket for everyone. Maybe it's unusual and harder to read compared to challonge tables, but I'm sure it was better from a competitive standpoint. I still believe no-bracket-stalling formats like rolling rounds Swiss and Round Robin are the way to go, but I will look forward to writing some scripts on automatizing Swiss to ease the burden of being TD.

    Next time I'm likely to host tournament with less mods, higher rating cap and improved format. You can write me the feedback in Discord PMs about what you've liked/disliked about the tournament, it may affect my future plans.

    @Nuggets I don't see how it would be any less dumb to build than an Eye. Novax without It's attack function is still very op in my opinion. An indestructible scout that can just hang out over a front line with an attacking Army or full Intel on your opponent's base forever. It's an insanely strong asset even without the laser.

    Some update from my friend, when we switched his windows power plan setting from Balanced to High Performance, the lag was vastly reduced. So might be related to how windows scheduler handles the loading of files from the OS or something like that (assuming this task is delegated to a background thread). Worth trying for anyone else with the issue

    Hi, I'd recommend M28 for better mod compatibility. Although in theory M27 should work with unit mods, I'm not actively looking to expand it's compatibility, and in the case of BrewLAN as the FAF vault version is broken (at least the last few times I've checked) it's not something I'd be looking to fix at this stage (although if the FAF vault version does get fixed then I'd be open to investigating the issue you mention of M27 not working at all with the mod enabled)
