Brett, just to save a bit of space and to make it look cooler, it'd be awesome if you could photoshop some images with the name of each map "e.g. Crater" on a background, and then make it so when you clicked the image you'd go to the link to the map video.. ;)

1. They don't. Never has a topic been deleted before :roll: 2. Just because they did it last time doesn't mean that they will do it this time.

Do you have any proof of that, or is it an assumption? If it is the latter, then don't do orange text, nor bold, and make sure you add the words "I think".

:roll: Please, that's called taking someone else's credit. This is another video off the guy's channel: and I have to confirm that the guy in that video is not you. So don't claim it is you, please. That just makes you look... meh.

No, but I remember someone being banned for using orange/bold text all the time. Be normal like the rest of us.

Are you really from Jamaica? http://forum.tankionline.com/posts/list/135/109982.page#2110625

@ChaosR: In terms of issue #1, challenging is going to happen on the forum. ;) Other than that, I agree. Like the mosquito battles, there is not sufficient motivation to win. And the map thing is a joke - I mean, all maps? ._. Which sane person wants to do a team battle in Silence? Yet teams will choose silence. And so on. EDIT: You also forgot to mention one thing which is an absolute joke - the fact that teams are being hijacked by different countries... How on earth is that a rule? The person who creates the team must be able to speak the country's language over a skype chat, at least. >_> Look at teams portugal and Jamaica... I feel sorry for all the portuguese tanki players who can't get into their team because a random russian clan felt like taking part in the World Cup and just hijacked their team, giving them no chance to fight for their country. Can any of those russians speak portuguese? I doubt it.

Paints are only worth it at 10,000 or more (except storm). An m3 weapon should always be preferred - the fact that you have thunder, freeze, and rico m2 and railgun m3 is suicidal... I'd say m3 one of these: thunder, freeze or rico - whichever one you prefer.

Scholzi, why don't you just say beforehand, say: "If we get first place, give 8,000 crystals to scholzi96 and 4,000 to skitee". "If we get second place, give 7,000 crystals to scholzi96 and 2,000 to skitee" "If we get third place give 4,000 crystals to scholzi96 and 2,000 to skitee". "If we get a runners up place give half to scholzi96 and half to skitee". Of course, not that exactly - I'm not even in your clan so you wouldn't be giving crystals to me. But say something like that in whatever way you have agreed with your clan to divide any crystals. Or something like that.. would save all the trouble. Just say now on your entry post how you want to divide the crystals.

That is the link where you can watch the tanki world cup as an audience member. ._. You won't be able to watch any "normal" matches, however, like that - yet. :?

Shadows seem to have disappeared... or is it just me? Anyone else?

The new gold box and shadow is much appreciated... pity the gold box hasn't come out in the proper maps yet. I'm sure it will soon though.

Wrong thread~

Trust me, it gets boring once you get an m3-m3 on the main server.

Better, but still not good enough.

If two paragraphs is a wall of text, get out. This is a forum, and forums are supposed to have long discussions. If you don't like long discussions, join chatrooms. Or just don't read them. :roll:

But imagine being able to go one better. Imagine not only fighting for a team, but for your country as well! Surely that would be amazing - and now, there is a chance to do that! Coming up is the Tanki Online World Cup, a contest between countries all over the world. At the time of writing, there are still places available to fight – but they'll have been taken up by the time of publication. You all should have heard of the World Cup, though. And in this article, I’m going to talk to you guys about the World Cup and what it's going to consist of. I'll also do brief summaries of each week in the World Cup regularly posted in this thread. So who is taking part? First of all, there are 22 teams which are taking part. These come from all around the world. There are three from the Americas – USA, Jamaica, and Canada – and nineteen from the Eastern hemisphere. The ones in the Eastern Hemisphere contain none from Africa, and thus are divided between Europe and Asia/Australia. Saudi Arabia, India, Malaysia, Vietnam and Japan make the five Asian nations, to add to Australia and New Zealand from Oceania. The remaining twelve nations are all from Europe. In order of West to East, they are: Portugal, Great Britain, Holland, Italy, Germany, Poland, Estonia, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Moldova, and Russia. For a fuller and higher quality version of this map click here Alright, you said teams have closed applications. So why the fuss to me? Admittedly, some of you might notice how the World Cup has started and how the teams have stopped accepting players. If you are not in a team now, you cannot play in the World Cup. However, you should treat this as sport! Most of the battles will be streamed live on the Tanki Online World Cup stream, and you can follow the progress of your country's team as they go on! Support your team! Follow the results and laugh at the supporters of the teams that drop out early in the contest! What will happen in the World Cup? The World Cup, as you already should know, will be a battle between many different countries to gain supremacy for their nation in Tanki Online. Most world cups, in sports and the like, normally use knockout rounds. However, this World Cup is different. The Tanki World Cup will be done on a “last team standing” basis: that is, the last team to exit the competition wins. Let me explain further. What is going to happen is this: each country will all start with five so-called "factories", that apparently produce supplies for their team. At the start of each week, teams will receive extra supplies in the garage dependant upon the amount of factories that they have. Teams will then fight each other to try to take factories off one other, fighting each other in set battles where they “gamble” factories. The winning team will take the amount of factories that were gambled before the match from the other team. Once a team has no more factories that remain, they are out of the world cup. The last team to survive, with factories remaining when all the others have none, will be the World Cup winners! What are the exact rules for these battles? These battles must be battles between five participants on both teams. Supplies must be permitted, and each match will consist of 2 games each 35 minutes long. The team which captures more flags in both of the games combined are the winners. Protection paints will be allowed, as will every weapon. The battles will be in any of a certain pool of maps and can be at any time that the two team leaders for the teams involved agree upon. How can I follow the results of my country's team? Most teams will publish the times of their battles and their results on their thread in the Clans/Teams section of the forum. Follow each team's thread carefully if you want to watch out for your country. You will also be able to watch most of the matches live here: http://tankionline.com/en/community/cybersport/ , where one of the DJs will be in most of the games and viewing it from a neutral perspective. Make sure you keep up to date with the times your team is playing so you can watch all of the matches from there. And what's for stake? Other than pride? 100,000 crystals and 2,000 supplies on offer – but the winner takes all! There is, according to the forum thread that announced the thread, no prizes for second position – nothing at all. It'll be winner takes all – the crystals, the supplies, and the pride. Just like in real war. So, that's all I have to introduce you to the World Cup for now, check in on this column for regular updates during the Cup itself! God bless, ~skitee~ *One of the countries which has a flag in the picture is not actually participating in the World Cup. There is also a fake paint which is not the same as any country's flag. Try to find the "fake" paints!

FTFY Fix'd properly.

First of all, your allocation is poor because, whatever the situation, tanki should NOT discriminate against epic savers. I know people who save for thunder m2 at wo3, so thus thunder m2 should be wo3. Using that logic, freeze m2 should be wo4, ricochet m2 should be wo5 and shaft m2 should be third lieutenant. Maybe the m3s could be stretched out further, but still... I guess the fact that I had m3 thunder at wo5 does make me a bit biased in this respect. About your two questions: 1. Kudos; A sign of Experience; Ability to create clans, join better clans etc; 2. Setting rank limits means you want to play with people around your level of ability and such. As a first lieutenant, I prefer playing between third lieutenant and colonel. Lots of people also like playing solely with people around their rank.

Whilst this is not funny and pretty poor, I can't but feel sorry for the guy... it doesn't help to troll the haters, though.

I am disappoint. All that fuss for... that? I am very disappoint.

Smoky/Twins. The only problem with twins is that people tend to target you if your the only twins in a battle... because your weapon is too annoying for them to cope with. Smoky is a heck of a lotta fun though.

All the best teams have m3-m3s and enough drugs... so basically it's 100% skill. And if a team doesn't have drugs and m3-m3s, well, their in the minority.
