A NOTE FROM YIS IN THE FUTURE | FRIDAY, MARCH 2, 2018

WARNING! CRINGE AHEAD.

---

Hello tankers! Before you go any further, I would like to tell you what you are actually doing here. Well I really like writing articles and stories for others to enjoy reading. Sadly, I haven't been accepted as a Reporter yet. So instead or writing articles or stories for the Tanki Online Newspaper, I will simply like to write my articles and stories here. And when, and if one day I become a true reporter for the Tanki Online Newspaper, I will kindly ask a Mod/Admin to close this topic (or maybe I'll keep it open for discussion).

Hope you enjoy reading my articles and stories, and see you on the battle field! :)

The Gold Box

 

 

---

There I was driving around in my tank, destroying others, and getting destroyed by others, when there it was, the sound everyone likes to hear, yes, indeed, it was the gold box alarm, that awkward moment of silence spread across the map as everyone brought out their supplies! This awkward moment became more and more awkward by the second, everyone was waiting for the small little golden box to drop from above. One minute, Two minutes, and almost three, then someone shouted "Come on gold box the battle ends in 20 Seconds!" Everyone panicked as the timer counted down. It reached 15 seconds, no gold box, then 10, Still no gold box! Then, what's this, 5 seconds before the battle finishes, the gold box starts to drop slowly, everyone charges full speed ahead across this Stadiums floor! The timer is down to 2 seconds now, without even looking at anything everyone closed their eyes and crashed! When they opened their eyes, they saw... They were to late, the timer reached 0 a second before it reached the top of the pile of tanks!

​Everyone was furious! So mad, ready to rage! Rage like there was no tomorrow! Everyone drugging, this wasn't just any drug war like you see with a lot on Generalissimos, this was a drug war like never before. Everyone drugging, five tankers using Heavy M3 kit, others using Medium M3 kit, tones with Prodigy, tones with Clay! Everyone going crazy! Then there it went again, that beautiful sound that can change a huge drug war into a calm, quiet, battlefield, well for at least a minute or two.. and that's exactly what this sound did, everyone was drugging but as soon as that sound had its time to shine, everyone turned their attention to it! Everyone waiting there, with drugs on, health ready to be used... But wait, ANOTHER PROBLEM?! Yes, server update was to start in 1 minute and 30 seconds! Counting down... then 10 seconds before server update, it started drooping, everyone charges with there heart racing so fast, even fast then M3 Wasp Micro Upgraded speed to the max! I closed my eyes, and just went threw! Then I opened my eyes to see... I got that gold box, and a second before server update! Pretty impressive. No one was mad, after all, this was a huge drug war, fund was huge! And everyone got their share of it a second after my amazing catch. See you in the battle field!

The End!

 

 

The Sky-Box of Tanki Online

 

---

INTRODUCTION!

This time I will be talking about something you guys see every day in battle, something no one really pays attention to. The sky-box of Tanki Online! Hope you will enjoy what I have written for you to read.

---

 

WHAT IS A SKY-BOX?

A sky-box is a large image used as a back-round to give the battle field a better effect and look more realistic. There are a few different sky-boxes in Tanki Online, and you can see a picture of all of them in the spoiler below.

Summer Mode:

 

Winter mode:

 

A city like sky-box: (Currently used in: Skyscrapers, Factory, and Future)

 

A sort of sandy/beach like sky-box (Currently only used in: Iran):

 

I space like sky-box: (Currently only used in: Madness)

 

A sky-box designed for the map: Rio (Currently only used in: Rio)

 

WHAT SHAPE IS THE SKY-BOX?

Now here is the interesting part, a lot of people think the sky-box is a big circular image, but it turns out it isn't! It actually is more like a square, but the reason why you can't tell is because the battle field your tank is on is at a certain angel where you cannot tell the sky-box in front of you is actually square shaped. This is also a thing all fly hackers know, because when you rise off the battle field you are able to slowly notice that the circular sky-box becomes rectangle or square! See the picture below.

As you can see, when you are on the battle field the Sky-box appears to have no sides, but see the kind of blurred out line in middle? That's the corner of the sky-box! Watch what would happen if you were to rise...

 

 

But when you rise up with Spectator mode (and we hope not fly hack) you eventually see that the sky-box is actually square shaped, and NOT circular!

 

 

IS THE SKY-BOX ENDLESS?

Well a lot of of you tankers including myself would say that the sky-box is indeed endless, but of course, I know how it all works and it actually isn't endless at all! There is indeed an end to the sky-box and there is something behind it as well! So now you may ask "So if it isn't endless, why can't we see a mark on it when we shoot the sky-box with either Smoky, Thunder, Railgun, or Shaft?" Well the answer to this isn't to simple, I myself couldn't understand this at first, but the answer is, there are two possibilities: Either the sky-box is penetrable, or the mark is to far away to see. I think that it would be the first though (That the sky-box is penetrable), I think it makes a lot more sense, tell me what you think.

 

WHAT IS BEHIND THE SKY-BOX?

I know what all you tankers are thinking, "If the sky-box isn't endless, whats behind it?!" Well you already know the answer, but the only problem is, it is in back of your mind. Let me me give you a small hint.

Ring a bell to any of you? Well if not, I'll just tell you.

When you turn off the sky-box (Like in the picture above), instead of the beautiful back-round, the battle displays a thick, dark, grey sheet. And yes, indeed, the dark grey sheet is endless, no matter how much you zoom out.

But turning off the sky-box doesn't turn on the grey sheet, it just removes the back-round (= The colored sky-box) allowing the grey sheet to reveal itself. This is also why turning off sky-box reduces lags, because when you un-check sky-box it removes a lot more little details, and therefor your computer doesn't have to calculate that many things which allows your computer to run more fluently.

(The picture in the spoiler in the section "WHAT SHAPE IS THE SKY-BOX" also shows you a little hint of whats behind the sky-box. See what I mean? look closely behind the square, its the grey sheet.)

 

JUST THE PROOF!

Now, a lot of you probably don't believe me about any of this, so therefor, I will show you the proof!

In the picture below you can easily see that the sky-box is indeed square shaped, that it ins't endless, and the grey sheet behind it all. (Please note: That is NOT a fly hack!)

But I think this video is all the proof you need for this, enjoy your proof!

In the video you are about to see, shows you all the facts what I have just tolled you.

Watch as we rise higher and, as we can see that the sky-box is really square shaped! 

Watch as when we reach the top of the sky-box we can see the grey sheet behind it all!

Enjoy!

[This proof has been made with TTT]

 

 

 

What Are We Driving On?

 

 

---

Hello tankers! Today I would like to talk about the every day driving course all you tankers drive on. Let's start with how what you are driving on is created. So here's how it works! Most of you probably already know what TTT and AE is, but for those of you that don't, I'll tell you.

Let's start with AE, after all that is the first step to figuring out what your driving on... AE stands for AlternativaEditor. AlternativaEditor is a program where basically you have a lot of images saved, and these "images" are props. These props are our every day object that we see in battle. Like Houses, Walls, even grass plates. So you open AE, then chose a prop you want to use (Example: A grass plate), and place it where you like (Example: Place it multiple times across the entire work place as a ground). Then you can chose another prob (Example: A house) and place it where you like... and so on, until you're satisfied with what you have created. Then save it. Now this is where TTT comes in! After you have saved your creation, close AE and open up TTT. TTT stands for TankTestingTool. What TTT does is, it allows you to explore your wonderful creation. This means, when you open TTT, you will appear in the map you created in a sort of Spectator mode, and you can zoom around and explore, or you may also click "Insert" to insert a tank. Obviously you can drive around and shoot, but since TTT is only made to explore and test out your map, the effects don't work. What effects? Like the possibility to destroy  another tank, not all bullets for the turrets are available (Only Firebird's, and Smoky's), all tanks move at the same speed, and all the turrets turn the same speed.

Now, when you're done exploring your map, well you can't really do anything with it, only Developers can... As for us regular players, we can'y release new maps whenever we feel like. But Developers are aloud to, for example who created, explored, tested, and released Silence? Players, or Developers? Of course the Developers. They can access parts of the game we don't even know about. Like when a hacker gets onto your account and buys you something you never wanted, Tanki Online Help Support can access your account, return the crystals the hacker spent on the object and take back the object he/she bought. But this isn't what we are talking about right now, maybe in a different article I'll talk about what Devs can access that we can't...

Getting back to our topic of the day, there is one thing you can do with the map you've created. Take screenshot or make a video of the map, and post it in Vikingsralls topic called Ideas for New Maps. Trust me it's a pretty good topic, you can also find all thetrols for TTT and AE and a lot more!

I think I'll rap this article up here with saying have a good weekend tankers, and I hope to see you in a battle some day.

 

 

 

The Rabbit Tanker (Part 1)

 

 

Before I start this story, I would like to say that the rabbit tanker is me, in case you didn't know.  :P

 

It all started while I was sitting in my office on the 500th floor of a skyscraper, while chewing on a pen.

"Ew! That isn't a carrot, that's a pen!" I said. Then the door opened, and an assistant walked in to the room.

"We have evidents that someone is out to get you. Shall we work on this case sir?" She said as she handed me a file of papers. I slowly took the file out of her hand and started flipping threw the papers.

"This isn't good!" I said "Who is this rabbit hater we are talking about here?"

"No one knows yet, bet I got a hunch. We know where he might be staying..." She said.

"We?" I stopped her in middle of the sentence in shock.

"Yes, we. Our team is: @Alex_Castillo (Me), , and @super703." She replied.

"Ohhh. Okay keep going" I said.

"Okay... Well we think he might be staying at the Roader Hotel." She continued "Should we investigate?"

"Yes, let's leave tomorrow morning at dawn." I said.

"No time for that! We have to go now!" She said as she pulled me out of my revolving chair and over my desk. We went outside where a car was waiting for us.

"Hop in!" Said the driver. "We dun have much time." So I did, along with Alex. It was quite strange, there was a driver, and a guy sitting next to me who was snoring his head off.

"Wake up?" I asked the snoring man.

"What? Pancakes? Mom?" He said as he rubbed his eyes.

"Who are you?" I asked in fear thinking that he was some drunk dude.

"Hello sir, my name is , but you can call me Smashy." He answered. "So are we there yet Super?"

"Who's Super?" I asked.

"Ugh. You ask to many questions." He said "He's @super703, also known as our driver."

"Okay, I guess I'll be quiet now" I said feeling offended that he said I ask to many questions. So from that point on it was just awkward silence, me and my phone, and a dark night outside my window. I got so bored I was about to hop over Smashy to see if it was a dark night outside his window too. But I held myself back.  :P

"Are we there yet?" I asked again.

"NO!" Everyone shouted.

"Wow wow, no need to yell, my ears are big but very sensitive." I explained.

After at least 20 mins of driving, which is quite a lot in rabbit time, we made it. I opened the car door, and flopped out on to the ground. I felt like I have never been in a car that long. It was happy to be back in the streets with my long coat protecting me from the rain drops falling from the roofs, after a big and strong rain storm. But for some reason the streets were much louder then back at my home in New York city. I wondered where we even were but I was to afraid to ask, I thought if I made one more sqeek he would turn me into a pretzel and eat me as a snack.

We were at some sort of movie theater in the outskirts of town. Although this looked like New York city, something was different, very different. I was starting to get suspicious as I took out my note pad and described all the people their, you know, in case they are criminals or something of the sort. I knew this was no picnic in the park. It was something way bigger.

Without saying a word we all walked into the movie theater. A very strange security guard was standing there. He short, but fat, weird looking mustache, sun glasses in middle of the night, and an iPhone he looked a bit addicted to. Anyways, he stopped the four of us.

"ID please." He said. So Alex, Smash, and Super, handed their ID in. "What about the rabbit here? Got an ID sir?"

"Ummm, I don't think so." I said in fear, not even knowing what ID meant.

"Then you cannot enter this building sir! LEAVE NOW!" He suddenly yelled unexpectedly. But then Alex whispered something in my ear. The three went inside leaving the security guard very suspicious about what Alex had whispered, and what I was up to. I dashed! Running between humans feet, then at last, made it to my destination. There was an open window waiting for me, I hopped in.

"Thanks for letting me in Alex." I said in releaf while taking a look around the room I was in.

"It appears, you have the wrong room Mr. Wabbit." He said in a sly voice. I knew I was in a heap of trouble now.

"Who are you?" I asked, as I tried to cover up the feat that was screaming inside me.

"I'm someone who wants you out of here!" He replied, as he chased me out of his room. I ran out of the room, he chased me down the hall with a stick. Until finally I smashed into someones feet. It was Smashy!

"Pleased to meat you." Smash said. "May I asked, what on earth were you doing chasing this poor wabbit down the hall with a  stick?"

"Oh, that, um..." He said but had no answer. "Oh look at the time, it's time for my next um... checkers came with my cousin."

"Ok, bye then..." Smash said suspiciously. The man went back into his room. "That was no regular man Mr. Rabbit, let's go back to Alex and Super. I think we gotta have a meeting about this one." So we both walked back to the main entrance. Then I saw Smash tell Alex and Super what happened. When they finished, Super gave a look at me for a second, then he told me to follow them into the elevator. So without even think, I did. Why? Because that security guard saw me. He ran for the elevator, but he made it a second to late. I laughed so hard because of his stupidity.

"Why you laughing?" Alex asked.

"Oh nothing." I giggled. Then we made it.

"I need to use the washroom for a second, be right back." Smash said.

"Uh, ya me too..." Super and Alex said.

"Okay, have a great time." I said. "Wait, that sounded so weird... I mean great time in the washroom?" I continued talking to myself. But there was no time to think anymore. The weird man with the stick came running for me again! I knew he didn't give up yet. I had no where to ran, I can't open doors, I'm only a rabbit. So I closed my eyes in fear, sqeeking my last words.

"Oh God, please don't do this, I'm to young..." I sqeeked to myself quietly. But then I opened my eyes. "Am I alive, is this heaven? Wow it looks so much like the building I was just in."

"Nope, you're still alive." Super said. "We kinda lied to you about the washroom thing, we just need to get @code_root to chase you again, so we can catch him."

"Mr. Rabbit, meet @code_root, @code_root, meet Mr. Rabbit." Alex said.

"Pleased to meet you Code. But may I ask why would you chase me?" have I done something to you?" I said.

"First of all, I go by R.H. now, and yes!" He replied.

"What does R.H. stand for?" I asked in confusion.

"Rabbit Hater!" He yelled.

"Woah Woah now, no need to yell." I said. " Wait! Did you say Rabbit Hater!?"

"You bet I did!" Remember me, the year was 1998, I worked in an office a floor below you, the 64th floor." He said.

"Oh yes, well you deserved it, why shouldn't I have..." I tried to explain, but I got interrupted by Smash.

"Enough with the chit chat guys." Said Smash. "@code_root you're coming with us!" He continued as he put hang-coughs on Code

"Great.." Code said sarcastically. We left the building without that silly security guard. Then ran for the car, hopped inside, threw, Super threw Code in the drunk, closed it, and off we went!

After some time we finally made it to the New York city jail. Super parked the car, then we all got out. Smash took out Code, although half asleep, he knew where ever he was, it wasn't going to be good. We all slowly walked towards the police station door, and Alex was about to knock on it, when all of a sudden the door flew open...

"Hello fellow folks! how may I help you!?" He shouted.

"Um, are you okay?" Asked Alex.

"Never been better how are you?" He replied.

"Good?" Alex said.

"Anyways, pleased to meet you, my name is @GoldRock, but you can call me Mr. Rock" He continued.

"Okay, 'Mr. Rock', we have a prisoner for you." Said Smash.

"Name of prisoner?" He replied.

"@code_root." He said "Anymore questions?"

"No." Mr. Rock replied. "Wait! Did you say @code_root? That guy is most anted here in our little town."

"Really?" I asked.

"No :P" He said. "The most wanted prisoner is the guy who keeps stealing my doughnuts."

"Okay, congratulations to him." Alex said. "But we need this guy in the slammer a.s.a.p."

"No problem, follow me!" He screeched. We all followed him into the police station. "Here we are, at last, the slammer."

"Okay can you just lock him up and flush the key down the toilet?" I asked. "I don't want him out of there."

"Um, I'll try to remember for next time I visit the washroom." He laughed. "But you gotta sign these documents first."

"What documents?" Alex asked. "I don't see any."

"Oh you'll see em' all right..." He said as he took out literally hundreds of papers.. "Okay, sign here, here, here, and here..." I wrote my signature at least one thousand times on all those papers. "Okay, I have all the info I need. Into the slammer Code!"

Mr. Rock unlocked the hang-coughs, threw him in the jail, slammed the door shut, locked the door, and there, his job was done. Well, except for the flushing the key down the toilet part.

"Thank you Mr. Rock." Super said. "Come on guys let's go home!"

"Ughh, I hate you Rabbit! I am the hater of rabbit, the rabbit hater!!!" Code yelled. "I'll get out some how, and when I do, be ready to be penalized.

"Yea yea yea, keep dreaming." I laughed, as I walked away. We all got in the car and started our long drive back home. Although it seamed like this adventure was over, I felt deep inside that this wasn't the end, I felt that Code and I would some day meet again, but no one knows.

 

TO BE CONTINUED!

 

 

 

The Rabbit Tanker (Part 2)

 

 

---

We're back with Part 2 of The Rabbit Tanker! Before diving back into the adventure, we shall recap what happened in Part 1. Let's just say that Alex, Smash, Super, and I met Mr. Rock. Then we spoke for a bit about something I don't even know about, then finally Mr. Rock locked that nasty Rabbit Hater up, and we started our drive home. But now for the actual part 2!

After a few hours of driving, we at last came home. I dashed up to my office on the 65th floor, slammed the door, and got to work. Ah, who am I kidding, I don't work after long rides and adventures like the one I'd had. I sit around and watch TV and eat my favorite snack, carrot chips, YUM! Anyways I sat in my fancy chair which was 10 times thing size of me, reached for the remote, turned on the TV and closed my eyes shut! Ah, nothing beats a good old dark quiet night in New York city, the only sound was the TV and the mice sqeeking in the little hole in my office wall. But all I cared about at that moment was my TV and carrot chips.

"Oh, how yummy!" I said as I stuffed a huge hand full of carrot chips in my mouth, you can even say, I bit of more than I could chew.

"Hello viewers, and mom. My name is @R3Z0GNATE. And I have some breaking news!" Said the man on TV.

"Breaking news, blah blah blah, who cares!? Get to my favorite cartoon already, Rabbit Tails." I said to the TV as if it would hear me.

​"A criminal has just went missing" The reporter said.

"Oh seriously, who cares?" I said.

"And his name is @code_root." The reporter continued.

"Where have I heard that name before?" I asked myself. "WAIT WHAT?!" Code escaped?! How?!" Without even thinking I ran straight down to Alex's office on the 37th floor. "Open up Alex! Open up!"

"Woah, no need for the screaming." She said as she walked towards the door. As soon as she opened it, I leaped across the entire room, right under a sofa. "What is it Rabbit?"

"Its code, Ms. Castillo," I said fearfully. "He escaped!"

"Again? Oh well, looks like the job hasn't been done." She said. "Back in the car Rabbit. I'll call the others." So she did, she called Smash, and Super. We all went back to the car, and drove off. I felt so tired after that long drive I'd had about half and hour ago, but I wouldn't be able to sleep knowing that the Rabbit Hater was after me. So I woke myself up as much as I possibly could. But it turns out, I was so tired I fell asleep on Smashes lap after 5 minutes or so. I must say he makes an exultant bed for a rabbit.

After a while we made it back to the police station. I was so mad about Mr. Rock letting him escape so fast, I knocked on the door so hard, but as you may not remember, I'm a rabbit, my hard knock made basically now sound what so ever.

"Need help?" Asked Super.

"Umm, I guess." I replied. 

"Okay, no prob." He replied as he turned the door nub. "Ah, there we go."

"show off..." I said. "Thanks anyways." We all walked inside, to find Mr. Rock inside the slammer instead of Code!

"What on earth?" I asked "What are you doing in there?"

"Oh that's a long story..." He said. "I kind of wanted to get rid of that key, because I knew I would forget by the next time I had to go to the washroom, so as soon as you left I went to the washroom. But when I came back I found that Code was gone, and that there was a box of doughnuts as his 'replacement'. I had no idea how he got out, but I thought I'd try eating one of those doughnuts, you know, to 'investigate'... So I took out the spare key from inside my hat, opened the jail door, and ran for the doughnuts. But little did I know, I was tricked as soon as a took a bite out of my yummy doughnut, some mysterious man with a long coat and a hat with the brim covering his eyes, came running for the jail door. At first I thought he wanted my doughnuts, but then I noticed he wasn't out to get my food, he kinda wanted me inside the jail. So he slammed in shut and ran off. There is my story."

"Wow, you're stupid." Said Alex.

"Ehhh," He said "Okay fine, yes, I am stupid, can you just get me out of here?"

"Fine, we'res the spare key?" Alex asked.

"Well, to tell you the truth, I don't know." He said.

"Why are you even a police man?" Super asked. "You should some sort of Mod for a video game, or something like that."

"Mod for a video game? Where did you get that from?" He laughed.

"Well, where did you decide to investigate doughnuts by eating em'?" Super continued.

"Videos, games, and video games. Prob sir?" He said.

"Ummm, I actually have no clue. What kind of police man learns stuff from videos and games?" Super asked in shook.

"Just forget it." Smash said. "Something tells me we should pay another visit to the hotel a.s.a.p." So we took off for the hotel leaving the weird police man still locked up in the jail. After a long, bumpy drive in middle of the night, we finally made it back to the hotel. I opened the car door, and dropped out right on to the floor.

"Finally, normal air!" I said.

"The AC was on..." Alex said.

"We rabbit only breath fresh air." I said as I tried to brag.

"Okay? Well there is the security guard again." Alex replied.

"Oh good, I got a few questions for him." I said in a sly voice. "Come on bros!"

"I'm a girl! How many times can you call me bro already?" Alex said.

"Oh yea, sorry bro." I giggled. We walked over to the door as the security guard stopped me, again!

"Sir, I ain't stupid. I remember you. Bring an ID this time?" The security guard said.

"No, but what I did bring is a few questions." I replied. "What's your name?"

"Give me your ID rabbit." He said without even listening to my question.

"Alright, if you don't want to answer that, answer this. How old are you?" I said.

"ID." He started to get mad, but I wasn't scared of some old tough security guard, pff.

"Where have you been between last time I came and now?" I asked on.

"ID!" He yelled.

​"I'm sorry sir, but that answer is unacceptable." I said. He tried to punch me to the next country, but since I am a small creature I walked under his legs right into the building without him even noticing.

"Uh, where did he go?" He asked Smash.

"That way!" Smash said as he pointed up.

"Okay bro, thanks. Be right back, I gotta get a big ladder..." He said sounding so smart.

"Yes, you do that..." Super said. As soon as he went to find his "big ladder", the rest of my crew walked into the building with me."

"That was fun. But what now?" Smash asked.

"I say we check the visitors list, I bet that code guy is on it." I said. So we went over to the guy by the counter to ask him for the list of visitors. "Hello sir, we're looking for the list of visitors, you know, to pay a visit to out friends."

"Okay, here you go." The man at the desk said as he handed the list to us. I scrolled threw the list, I got to the C's.

"Aha! Here, @code_root! He's here." I said.

"What room number?" Super asked.

"Let me check," I said as I looked back down at the paper. "Okay, here it is, @code_root, room: Right in front of your face!"

"What the heck?" Smash said.

"Muhahaha, you think you can fool me rabbit?" Said the guy at the desk. "Well think again!" He yelled as he ripped off his fake beard and mustache. It was Code!

"Oh dear..." I said. "Run!" We all ran for our life in shook. A guy behind a desk was the the last person I would suspect to be Code.

"Not so fast little rabbit!" Code said has he pulled out his pistil. "Stop rabbit, or I'll shoot!"

"Stop or no stop, you'll shoot either way. Might as well keep running." I said.

"Fine then, you leave me no choice," He said as he squinted his eyes. "three..." But while he was counting down, out came the security guard with his ladder.

"Oh yea babe, I'ma kill that rabbit once and for all!" The security guard said, but then he lifted his head to find my crew and I running towards him. "Yes, time to finish this!" He started running towards us now, we were surrounded with Code with a gun on one side, and the security guard running towards us on the other.

"DUCK!" Smash said as he pushed Alex, Super and I into an elevator which just so happened to open right beside us. The elevator closed, leaving Code and the security guard charging toward each other. BANG! They ran right into each other, and as they bashed, Code accidentally pulled the trigger releasing the bullet, and shooting right to the sealing, causing serous damage to it.

"Look what you did!" Code yelled at the security guard. "I should have never hired you, @I-Iero."

"Sorry, you told me to finish him, and that's what I tried to do." Hero said.

"Try isn't good enough Hero." Code said.

"I know sir. I won't fail this time, I know it!" Hero said. "Just make sure they don't leave the building."

"Okay, but what's the plan?" Asked Code.

"Oh, you'll see boss, you'll see." He replied.

Meanwhile, in the elevator.

"What do you think happen to those two?" I asked.

"They probably bashed into each other, causing Code to shoot the gun straight at the sealing." Super said.

"I doubt that." Alex said. "But do any else of you have a weird feeling about that security guard? I mean, just because Rabbit didn't have his ID, doesn't mean he should be out to kill him, right?"

"Now that you mentioned it, that is kind of weird. Do you think the security guard is working with Code?" I asked.

"Could be." Super replied. "But we until we have proof, we can't arrest him."

"Are you say we should follow them and collect proof?" Alex asked.

"Exactly!" He answered.

"Come on, why?" I asked. "I'm tired and scared pf those two huge guys."

"Rabbit...." Alex said.

​"Fine, but just imagine following two people who are out to kill you." I said.

"I wouldn't be scared at all." Smash said trying to tell me there is nothing to be afraid of. It didn't help much though.

"What floor?" Super asked.

"Oh, we're going to the top floor." Alex said.

"Okay." He said as he pressed the for the 175 floor. "Away we go!" He yelled as we started our flight to the top.

The Rabbit Tanker (Part 3)

 

 

---

Hello tankers and we're back with The Rabbit Tanker - Part 3! So let's recap! So a new character appeared on screen in the last part, @I-Iero, as he is working for @code_root. I-Iero has a evil plan for the Rabbit and his friends. Meaning while Rabbit and his crew are in the elevator and are going up to the top floor, what will they find there? What's i-Ieros evil scam? What will rabbit find on the 175th floor? Keep reading to find out!

 

"Ugh, this is taking forever!" Rabbit said. "173... 174... Oh finally 175!"

"That was only two minutes rabbit." Alex said.

"Not for rabbits..." I answered. "Come on guys, lets check this floor out..."

"Wow." Smash said. "It's like a giant control room!"

The entire floor was one huge control room with hundreds of computers, and switches. Lots of printers, screens and bottens. The weird part was though, the room was empty. We all decided to look around.

"Guys! Look at this." Super said calling us to a meeting. "Is that us?" He asked as he pointed at the screen.

"TARGET LOCATED!" A robot voice called out before anyone can answer.

"Are we the target?" Alex asked.

"Think we are" I said as a dashed.

"Look over there!" Super said as he pointed at a giant missal pointing right at my nose. The missal launched!

"Run guys!" Smash yelled as he pushed Alex and Super out of the way of the missal, then jumped back half a second before the 500 hundred ton bullet hit the found.

"I think that thing was waiting for us." I said. "Let's get out of here!"

"No." Super said. "Don't let that missal get what it wanted, it was trying to get us out because it knows something is in here."

"Smart." Smash said. "Keep looking guys."

Meanwhile with Code and I-Iero.

"Epic fail Hero, epic fail." Code said as he shock his head.

"That wasn't even my plan!" He answered.

"Well, get started on it instead of shooting missals at the ground." Code said.

"Not my fault, besides you aren't doing any of the work..." Hero said

"Oh ya? Watch me!" Said Code.

"What?" Asked Hero in confusion.

"You said I do no work? I'm going in! I can sneak around like a spider cat. They wouldn't even notice I'm there!" Said Code.

"Okay? Bye?" Hero said. "Are you mad?"

"Of course not, does it look like it?" He replied.

"Yup." He laughed. "Well, I'll watch you 'sneak around' from the cameras, see ya."

"Bye." He said as hell slammed the door shut behind him. "Time to kill a rabbit, time to kill its crew, time to show Hero what I can do." Hero sang as he closed his eyes and headed to the top floor.

And back to Rabbit and the gang.

"So found anything?" Alex asked.

"Other than cameras that are starring right at us, no." Super said.

"Found something!" I yelled.

"What?!" Everyone asked.

"A peanut!" I said excitedly.

"Rabbit..." Smash said. "Be serous."

"I am" I replied. "Hey guys? Do you feel like someones watching us?"

"You mean with those cameras? of course, but I don't care, cameras can't hurt you can they?" Said Alex.

"No, I mean do you feel like something other then the cameras is watching us?" I said.

"God?" Super replied.

"A human being..." I replied with a face palm.

"In that case, yes someone is watching you." A voice called out.

"Code! I knew you'd return. I here your voice but can't see you." I said.

"Hehe, I might be above or below, in back or in front, you never know Rabbit." Code said in a sneaky voice.

"Is Hero working for you?" Smash asked.

"Maybe..." Code replied.

"That means yes." Alex said.

"Maybe..." Code said once more.

"Speaking of Hero, where is he?" Super asked.

"Oh, I'm closer than you think Super." He answered. "Look behind you..." As Super turned around to to see Hero, Code walked up behind him and knocked him out!

"Hey! Don't do that." I yelled.

"Stop me Rabbit." Code said.

"Sure I will," I pulled out a rifle and fired straight at him. "Die Code!"But it missed!

"Heheh, nice try Rabbit. My turn!" Code said as he took out his pistil from before and counted down again. "Three, two..."

"One! And knock out!" Smash said as she pushed Code to the ground.

"Fail again! Oh my God, I really gotta stop counting down." Code said.

"Hehe, I'll keep him here and watch Super." Smash said as he tied Code up. "You guys go get Hero, he's getting away!"

"Of course I am!" Hero said. "I never fail, unlike Code. Muhahah!

"Sure about that?" Asked Alex. "Come on Rabbit."

"Okay, coming." I said as I gulped up my peanut and ran out the door with Alex to find Hero.

"You okay?" Smash asked Super as Alex and I left the room. But there was no answer.

"Ha, I guess I kill your little friend." Code said.

"May I remind you I'm the one sitting on you?" Smash replied. "And that I could just take my elbow and smash it right in your back?"

"Oh yes, I forgot about that." Code said.

"Why do you hate Rabbit anyway?" Smash asked.

"Long story..." Code said.

"Mom? Who? Where?" Super woke up! "Oh, you again..."

"Yea, me again." Code said.

"Smash, should I just finish him?" Asked Super as he pulled out a gun.

"No need, put that away for now." Smash said. "I'm just trying to figure out why he hates Rabbit, and why and how he got Hero to work for him."

"Ah I see," Super said. "Tell us now!"

"Okay okay, Hero used to be a good buddy of mine, but he never wanted to get rid of Rabbit with me, he has a kind heart, all knocking out stuff is stuff I told him to do. The only reason he's doing them is because one night I came to his house forcing him to take a suitcase of money, and get rid of Rabbit." Code said.

"Wow.." Super said. "To me he seems more evil. Are you sure he didn't hire you?"

"I'm sure." Code said. "I wonder if Alex and Rabbit caught him yet.

Meanwhile with Alex and I.

"Caught you!" Alex said.

"What is this? Tag?" Hero asked.

"Of course not, this is reality," I replied "like a talking rabbit, totally real."

"Sure..." Said Hero.

"Spill it." Alex said. "What's going on here."

"Got nothing to spill..." He replied.

"Sure you don't." I said. "Would you have something to spill if I held a gun by your head?"

"I don't have any info!" He yelled. "Just leave me alone..."

"If I leave you alone, you just try to shoot me again." I said.

"I swear I won't, I really don't care about killing you." Hero said. I was shocked, when I first saw Hero, I thought he wanted to kill me more than Code, guess I was wrong.

"Then what are you doing..." I asked. "Why kill me if you don't even care?"

"Because I've been hired." Hero answered.

"You really would take money for someones life?" Asked Alex.

"Not my fault, I was forced to take the money," Hero answered. "he said if I didn't take the money and get rid of you Rabbit, that trigger would be pulled."

"So, switch to our side now. Even though you were gonna kill me." I said.

"What about that trigger?" He asked.

"Oh it's fine, that trigger will be pulled when that gun is facing him..." I answered with a laugh. "Just wait and see."

"Okay then." Hero said. "I'm joining team Rabbit!" We all laughed for a bit.

"So, let's go check on Smash?" Alex asked.

"Sure." I said. So we went back to the big control room and...

"What's you problem man get off me.." Code said to Super.

"Says the one who knocked me out? Never!" Super said.

"Oh, good Hero, you're here." Code said. "Well don't just stand there, help me."

"Sorry bro, you're on your own this time." Hero replied.

"What did you say?!" Yelled Code.

"You heard me, I'm on there side now." Said Hero.

"Ima kill you!!!" Code yelled again.

"You can always try Code." Laughed Hero.

"Ugh that's enough!" Code screamed. He took out a piece of dynamite, lit it, threw it towards us, activated his jet pack and flew off! "I'm out suckers! Have a nice time dying! Muhaha!"

"Oh no. What do we do now? That things gonna blow any second!" Said Alex.

"I'll eat it!" I said excitedly.

"What on earth?" Smash said as I took the dynamite and ate it.

"Quite yummy..." I said.

"Yea sure, wait for the after taste." Alex said.

"Well here it comes..." I laughed, 3... 2..."

"Nice knowing you Rabbit, I'll miss you." Hero said.

"1!" I said as I bounce to the sealing and came smashing down to the ground. "That was fun." I said as I had my head on the ground and my feet in the air.

"Haha" Everyone laughed.

"Thank you, thank you.... *Burp*" I said. "Ops, sorry. dynamite makes me burp." After everyone finished laughing, including myself. It was time to get serous with stuff.

"He's gone, but he'll be back soon enough, and when he will be back, we must be ready for anything he welcomes us with." Super said. We all agreed.

"Yes. We shall prepare for his return, let's go guys, we shall prepare." I said.

"Not yet, tomorrow we start. It's late now, I say we turn in."

"Me too, let's go get a room." Alex said. "After all, this is a hotel." Alex said as we all left the room.

"Good night control room." I said as I shut the door after everyone left the room.

 

TO BE CONTINUED!

 

 

Should Teaming Be Allowed?

 

I started this discussion because usually when I team with someone, someone tells me that I shouldn't. What I would like to say clear off the top is that I'm not trying to say teaming as in "helping the opposite team" (Pushing your team-mate off the side so they won't capture the flag, helping the other team kill members of your team etc.), because that is clearly stated in the Tanki Online Rules.

What I am trying to figure out here is if you can simply team with someone by not destroying that person, and they do the same back to you.

I would say that it's perfectly allowed. Why? Because let's say a tanker on the blue team has Railgun equipped and isn't fully loaded yet. Then he or she passes a tanker on the red team but still isn't loaded, so therefore he/she can't shoot (simple logic). So what's the difference if he/she is loaded or not, in both cases he/she isn't shooting the other tank.

UP TO THIS POINT WE SAY TEAMING IS ALLOWED.

But there is one problem... In CTF (Capture The Flag) Let's say a tanker from the blue team is carrying the red flag and a tanker from the red team spots the blue tanker with the red flag, but now let's say both these tankers are teamed, and since he/she is teamed with the tanker with red flag, he/she can't shoot and destroy him/her. So until now, teaming wasn't hurting anyone, but now if he/she doesn't shoot the tanker with the flag, he/she might capture it and that effects the whole team. So now we have a problem.

UP TO THIS POINT WE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH TEAMING.

But there is a simple answer to this. Make it that you can't shoot the tanker yu're teaming with, but when that tanker is holding the flag, then you are able to shoot him/her.

UP TO THIS POINT WE SAY TEAMING IS ALLOWED.

But now I have a question that I have no answer to, so therefore, I want you, the reader to try and give me an answer. Right now we are saying that this kind of teaming is not hurting your team, but let's say that the person you are teamed with is destroying a member of your team. Now if you don't help you team mate out by destroying the person you're teamed with, then you effecting/hurting your own team.

UP UNTIL THIS POINT WE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH TEAMING.

I know I said I have no answer but I'll tell you what I meant by that in a bit. The only answer I can think of is, that there are two possibilities:

1. That you can team with someone in any mode (DM,CTF,TDM,CP), but when that tanker is destroying a member of your team (In any mode except one which we'll see in a minute) or capture a flag (in CTF) or capture point (in CP), then you're allowed to kill that person. This answer not a lot of people would like, including myself, because it can get a bit annoying in battle so let's see the second answer.
2. This answer is quite simple, teaming should be prohibited in every mode, except for DM (Death Match). Why? Because in DM, you aren't hurting anyone by teaming since there are no real teams anyhow.

​UP UNTIL THIS POINT WE SAY TEAMING IS ALLOWED (BUT ONLY IN DM).

But now I'll explain to you why I said I didn't have an answer. I said that because I meant I didn't have a good answer to why you can team in any mode without disturbing your own team at the same time. So I want you to think of answer and post it below!

 

See you in the battle field!  :)

 

The Rabbit Tanker (Part 4)

 

---

We're back with part 4 of The Rabbit Tanker, let's recap on what happened in the previous part. @I-Iero switched his mind onto the good side, while the rabbit hater, @code_root flew off in his jet pack to start planning his new evil plan to get rid of me for good. But now for part 4 of The Rabbit Tanker!

 

"Boy, that sleep felt like a month or something." I said as I scratched my neck, "Wait, where's Smash?" I got scared.

"Probably in the washroom or something, go back to bed Rab. I'm trying to sleep here." Said Super.

"Yea probably is," I replied. "But I'm not tired, I'll be downstairs watching those humans pass by."

"You do that." Super said then threw his pillow over his head. So I went to the lobby downstairs.

"Oh what beautiful couches, I can sit on these and watch those humans pass while munching on some of those candies on the table." I said to myself. So I leaped onto the couch, grabbed a dozen of candies, and stuffed them all into my mouth. Then a man walked over at sat down next to me.

"How are you sir?" The man asked?

"Mmmm-mm-mmm" I said because I had candy stuffed in my mouth.

"I see." The man laughed.

"I'm good, what about you?" I spit out the candies and said.

"I'm doing just fine," The man said. "What's your name little one?"

"Rabin Rabbit is the name, but you can call me Mr. Rabbit." I said proudly.

"Okay, Mr. Rabbit..." The man winked. "How would you like to come to my sweet and hang out. I have food too."

"FOOD?! I'm there! Which floor?" I asked.

"The 13th, I like it there since no one lives there or make noise..." The man said.

"Yea, what about the ghosts though?" I shivered.

"Haha, don't be scared there is not such thing as ghosts" The man told me.

"Well if you sure, then fine." I said. "Let's go." So the man and I went to the 13th floor in the elevator.

"Here we are!" The man said as he showed me his suite.

"This look scary," I said. "There must be like 50 spiders here."

"Eh, who cares?" The man replied. "Let me show you to my suite." So he took his key and unlocked the door, as soon as I stepped into the room I noticed this wasn't any ordinary room, it was some crazy contraption room! But the thing that caught my eyes was a large red chair with its back facing me.

"Um, nice place." I said. "Where do you sleep?"

"Oh on that bed over there, see?" He replied as he pointed to a nail bed.

"What on earth?" I shrieked. "How do you sleep on that?"

"Quite comfortable actually." He said. "Oh and something very interesting, when the nails get old, I eat them!"

"They must be very yummy." I said "What's behind they chair?" I asked.

"Oh that's the question I wanted to hear!" He laughed, then there was awkward silence for a few seconds.

"So are you going to tell me?" I asked.

"Oh yes, sorry," He said. "I was just thinking about those nails. Can't wait to eat them."

I laughed for a bit then noticed, what on earth? This guy eats nails? Why am I even here? And with that I took a good leap into the air onto his face. "Hiya!"

"Get off me you little ball of dust!" He yelled.

"What do you want?" I said angrily. "Does this have anything to do with my friend Smash being gone?"

"Maybe so, and maybe not." He said.

"Who are you! And what do you want?" I said still jumping across his face.

"I am sachet100! Son of sachet1OO! And I stand here in this hotel as a messenger from Code_Root to destroy this building and everyone in it." Sachet said.

"Why begin with me then?" I asked suddenly frightened.

"Because my orders were to destroy you and your friends first."

​All of a sudden I remembered Smash, was he already destroyed? With that thought I feel the presents of other men approaching me from all sides. Before I know it I'm knocked out.

Back at the sweet we were staying in...

"Have you seen Rabbit, Alex?" Super said while brushing his teeth.

"Last I heard he was looking for Smash." Alex replied.

"Wait where is Smash?"

"Uh, I don't know."

"Well both gone sounds kind of strange, wouldn't yo say?"

"I guess" 

"Well we're gonna find both of them!"

"You search high, I search low! GO!" Alex said.

As they both ran there separate ways, it left the sweet unlock and empty (besides the snoring Hero). And with that someone had something do to inside. On of Sachets advisers sneaked in and captured Hero as well. But then stuff didn't look to amazing for Sachet, Hero awakened!

'Why am I in the arms of Dark Vader?' Hero thought. 'What on earth is going on? I'll pretend to stay asleep to see where they're taking me. Besides I have a bunch of friends around here to save me.' And with that he shut his eyes and tried to hear where he was being brought to.

"We got another, Master Sachet." Said the man.

"Good! Lock him up." Sachet said.

When Hero arrived at a sell, he knew if he didn't act now then he would be there forever. So at that moment he jumped up and bunched the man in the face. "Where do you think you're taking me kidnapper!" But before Hero knew it an alarm went off. "Um, that ain't good." Hero began to run for his life.

"Hey! Look where you going Charle!" another man said after Hero bumped into him. "Wait you not Charle, go back to room!"

"Make me!" Hero said proudly.

"Okay," The man said with a smile. So the man picked Hero up and threw right into a sell where the door slammed shut! "I made you. Happy now?"

"Um, no!" Hero yelled. "Let me outa here bro!"

Now back at where Alex was searching...

"Where is that little guy, I wish someone bigger got lost, then it'd be easier to spot." Alex said to herself.

"Hey, I'm a big guy!" The same man said. "And I'm lost."

"Um, so am I." Alex said.

"Ugh, doesn't anyone understand by now?" The man said. "It's like cops and robbers, except the cops are bad and the robbers are, well you! And guess what, you're caught!"

"Wait what?"

"Basically you coming with me!" The man said.

"What, let go of my arm Dark Vader?" Alex said.

"I not Dark Vader, sister." The man said as he started pulling her away.

"Just let me go"

"Rather not kido" The man said. Then people started to stare knowing something was wrong here, so the man started to act. "Don't mind her peoples! She's just a robber trying to rob this place, I take care of dis." 

"Oh okay." People said.

When Alex reached the HQ of Sachet, she knew everyone was somewhere near. "We got the last one, master." The man said.

"Bring her in!" Sachet said happily.

The man brought Alex in, hands tied in ropes. "What do you want?"

"See those sells?"

"Yes." Alex said.

"See how two are empty?" Sachet said.

"Yes."

"Well that one empty sell is for you!" Sachet laughed.

"I kind of understood that, but who's the other one for?" Alex asked.

"Wait, what?!" Sachet yelled. "Who of our prisoners has escaped!"

"Yea! I did!" A voice said from a distance. But the question is, who did escape? And how?
