My mindset of winning caused me to play crazy, trying to score quick points using dodgy openings

Entering the event i had hopes of scoring well. until i lost a tough game to a 1700. So my point was if i knew i had 1 in 3200, chance of winning anything, i would have not played at all. Actually, if it was done correctly, id have a 1 in 50 chance of getting something. before the event i seen that, and was convinced to play. Since im poor at english, my real arguement was: If FIDE did nothing about it and didnt change the winners; then i was asking for my rating back. So i wasnt demanding my rating back anyway, only if nothing was done about it. I should have wrote that in the initial post

Well how do you know that he would not have won anything?
I mean if the prizes were distributed accurately which means randomly he would have a chance of winning just as much as I did
How do we know when there will be a update? where will it be posted?

It's interesting to note that FIDE describes a different criterion in their own press release:

> All participants will be automatically entered into random prize draws, with a chance to win:
Maybe someone up the chain of command decided that the best way to resolve this conflict is to relax the 5-game limit. Or maybe "Play at least five (5) games during the 24-hour event" doesn't restrict the 5 games to the tournament; they could be played from the pool or lobby and still be "during" the tournament.
@ZoomieCat I fully support you, because FIDE broke it's own rules. And since so many days, FIDE is doing controversies. Idk what's their problem.

No. It was meant for the tournament. Since that was just the invitation, and not the full regulation
Also, including that @@Ekaaksh1 didnt do what you stated, anyways.

I also doubt that fide would be so manipulative with the regulations.

the regulatons, i quoted which they released as a pdf included in that article you quoted, likely meant for more exact info.
So it wouldnt make sense for them to do what you said, i think
