Glad you said almost, I don't think I have, anyway B) Also, I like how you made a mistake in your grammar in that post (the extra comma?). See Muphry's Law, it applies here :D

Thanks :P I especially like the way you've organised the rhyming at the end of each stanza :) Yours is amongst the best, imo Cheers :D The description in your poem is great, really accurate too :) And, finally, good luck all!

Nice design :P Maybe not such a bad idea... :D

True, but it still defeats the purpose of ranks, like ultrabear and Dihos said. Ranks are there to show experience. What on earth is the point if they can't do that?! I think the XP buying thing was fine when it was limited up to Master Sergeant - now, it's not so good.

Nah, ranks are no problem. I barely ever look at the ranks of the people that I play. i just mentally note the ones with any skill. Though the ranks for battles, like splitterpoint commented, used to be seriously misbalanced (I remember the same thing, also back in 2010 :P ).

Dude, give me any M0 weapon and I can still earn some crystals. The chances are that others your rank will have the same upgrade, anyway. Also, M3 weapons can't be got (no matter how many crystals you have) at lower ranks, such as yours. At our rank, players can use M1/M1 combos at best. That''s what the rebalance (correctly) did. So crystals don't matter that much.

Yes, it's fine when it is - gives me ample time to make additions/edits to my entry :P !

And we do not need any more twins users :angry: :huh:

Errr... no. There are no rubbish weapons, just rubbish players.

Maybe it's your network :S ?

Oh right, thanks :)

Out of interest, why was it declined?

I personally think it's a good idea, but I bet it has been mentioned (and rejected) before...

He has a point, though his grammar is poor :)

Finally, someone like myself! I'm not alone :D !

Wow, rhyming 'contest' with 'contest'.... amazing :P And 'be' and 'see' are also very sophisticated, long words (!)

What about each camper (those with a D/L ratio of higher than 2 or so) has a gold box fall directly on to them at least once per game? I wouldn't mind that (*cough*railguns*cough*rule*cough*)... To be honest, this thread has really gone off topic lol :D

On the 17th day of December, How well it is I remember, The rebalance had come, Bringing crystals for some, Updating hulls and turrets that only succumb, To paints coloured with emerald and ember. _________________________________________ Waiting for the New Year’s sale, Fighting battles of great scale, My Wasp is what I use, And the Smoky turret whose, Low damage means I usually fail (But the critical hit sometimes prevails!). _________________________________________ At last, discounts of 30 percent, My 5000 crystals lying unspent, Should I use them on the Firebird, With an ability it has been heard, For flames on a defender to ferment, And destroy without the attacker present? _________________________________________ But no, I might purchase Freeze, Whose chemicals can destroy with ease, And cause tanks to slow down, Making sure they are around, To be hit by Shafts renowned, For sniping with expertise. _________________________________________ Purchases aside, the New Year update, Which the sale it does predate, As gold boxes start to fall, With 200 crystals in each haul, And a Hunter M0 for all, With secret hints for players to collate, And a 2013 map for tanks to celebrate! _________________________________________ HAPPY NEW YEAR! ~ GoldRock :) NOTE: This is not complete. I am going to add a stanza focussing on the season itself before the deadline :P

Close this topic, mods :rolleyes:

I know :) Actually, it's not that bad, but it seems to hate Tanki's servers :P

It's not like ricochet... And it's not a 'fantasy' weapon... it's just a multiple grenade launcher, that's all :P Though I agree completely with you :) It was just an idea!

It varies... I can't play Gallery because of the huge lag I experience (FPS 1 - 3) but on Silence, Combe, Fort Knox, and most other maps, even larger ones like Bobruisk, I'm usually at 30 - 40 FPS, with some very occasional lag (lags once every half hour for a few seconds, maybe) :)

A bit of a change of subject to this topic, wasn't there? Dihos, don't post everywhere on the forum how much you hate the rebalance - maybe a constructive comment (It was a bit harsh when you told some kid to 'Shut up' on another topic lol!). I personally think that the rebalance has been great, and that the developers have not received support from the community because some of the community doesn't like change (incidentally, this group of players is the one that uses the forum most - most people just get on with playing!). Some parts of the rebalance are bad, others are good, but the way forwards is to implement these changes. The developers have earned a congratulations, I think :D . P.S. To the sceptics: - I have not been bribed, - I have no mental health issues, - I do not feel suicidal, - Or any other excuse you can come up with: I am not / do not / did not / disagree!
