If you look at the results, it seems as though one voter voted that both the equipment is too expensive, and that the prices should be increased! And the prices are fine... the upgrades have become more beneficial with the rebalance, and so naturally, the prices have gone up :)

So unlucky... even at my rank, I've taken at least 5 gold boxes, and seen another 5 drop when camping with my railgun :P

I completely agree, which is why I am surprised as to the high quality of this report (which is what I should have said, rather than the reporting itself being great) :)

*grammar; Yes, I am. Why shouldn't I be? :P +1920392821 :D

A matter of days?! Wow, that's some great reporting :D !

"18-year-old male street beggar from Karachi”, koolwalky should have been "18-year-old male street beggar from Karachi, koolwalky" in that situation. Though to be fair, I was being pedantic on purpose in that case :P Well proofread, for so few mistakes in such a long and fascinating article. I was just joking about the 'lapses of grammar'; don't worry, I'm not that concerned about grammar... yet :ph34r: :D

I have faith in the reporters to make good decisions, and the decisions for that competition were generally fair. I was simply poking fun at the fact that one of the judges had insulted ("The day you stop being so supercilious is the day that this forum will be rid of the biggest stickler I have ever seen.") a competitor just after the close of the recent competition. I am sure that chriswu had no bad intentions with his comment, however, I was simply amused by what he said, regarding the relationship of the two (as judge and awarded competitor) in a recent competition. My apologies if you took my comment seriously. What Selena12121 thinks is another matter entirely... P.S. Congrats to your brother - his poem was definitely worthy of a prize, imo :)

You see, this is why Selena12121 only got recognition for the 'Festive Tanki Poet' contest, of which, coincidentally, chriswu was one of the judges... :P

You're meant to go to that link, and ask there, rather than creating a new topic :) It keeps the forums less cluttered :P

Glad to see Combe's making a comeback, it always has been one of my favourite maps :) I vaguely remember Arena, even at my low rank, from a year or two back :P

Now I'm kicking myself for getting an M1 Viking over an M1 Dictator... I only really compared the M0 stats when buying, which wasn't very clever... Oh well, Dictator's weird-looking, anyway :D Better to look good :P

- “next year';s - “18-year-old male street beggar from Karachi”, koolwalky Those were the only typos I could find, which is pretty good for such a long article :P Hilarious, and well-written :D Though I thought Selena12121 did the proof reading; shame on you, Selena, letting these lapses of grammar be published... :D

Though, to be fair, Selena's might have deserved more than just recognition :) Generally well chosen though :P

Great, but maybe Britain deserved it's own interview (yes, I know it got a mention by Tommy60 for the USA) :P All in all, still a fascinating read, well collected :)

Congrats all, well done to the three winners :)

I have never said you are a troll. Read my posts carefully... I made a statement ('Grammar trolls unite!') and then said you were acting as a troll. So am I, technically...

1) I'm glad to see this post was OK, grammar-wise :P 2) A 'troll' can be defined as "someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as a forum". Thus, under Wikipedia's definition, you were acting as a 'troll', as your first post was off-topic.

Don't write that if you want to avoid bans. I'm pretty sure he meant 'end of discussion', rather than literally, 'topic closed'...

You really should have used an exclamation mark after 'job', it would have been more appropriate in this situation :P Grammar trolls unite :ph34r: !

Or enter a few contests :)

Great. Please feel free to play World of Tanks instead, maybe you'll even read their forum rules, like you completely ignored ours...

+1

And stop writing in capital letters. Some grammar would be nice, too ^.^

Stop making pointless comments, you're just repeating what FederalBureauFBI said :huh:
