^^ That's where I have always caught Gold Boxes, but the other day it didn't drop up there. Are there new drop points at Monté Carlo?

It has come to my attention that this topic is approaching 100 pages of discussion. Since this topic's creation in October of 2010, the gold box craze has consistently spread and become more and more popular, leaving legacies upon legacies in its wake. As the four year anniversary of the Gold Box approaching and the mark of 100 pages in this topic about to be set, we have no regrets. I am glad to still be a part of Tanki, and of this Gold Box rush, and I hope all you tankers out there realize the signiffigance of this as well. Your pal, SpiderPig1

Could be, I agree with that, but I also think that the key player theory still has some merit to it.

Yah, that always seems to work for everyone but me. I always go to the one spot the gold isn't at, except for on Polygon.

I have tried to learn from several different theories about where the Gold Box drops. So far the most promising one is the Key Player theory, and although it may not work every time, that's just cause it's a guess as to what happens. In my book, you only need skill, determination, and luck in order to catch a Gold Box. As promising or as not promising as a theory can be, it is, after all, just a theory. As long as you think you can catch a Gold Box, you will catch a Gold Box. That's how I see it.

Nice, how long did you let it sit there?

That's what I do too. I've only had the chance to do it once, on Silence. On the large ramp to your left if you view it from the Red Team's side, a gold dropped right at the very top of it. Every other person was either sniping, oblivious to the gold right in front of their noses or on the other ramp near the main entrance to the blue zone (keep in mind this is the original Silence, where there was no third middle ramp), so I let it fall, took a screenshot that ended up who knows where, and waited until someone got the hint and almost took it. Of course, I got it, but I think I waited a bit too long.

I recently caught a Gold Box when I was on vacation, and the pic I took of it is pretty funny. It's a 5000 from a few weeks ago, and I have M2 Hornet and M1 Thunder, but I'm telling you this because I catch the Gold and take a pic just as I explode, so the entire screen is a white flash with my name at the top. Will post pic as soon as I get it off my laptop. I have five 1000s (Polygon x2, Madness, Silence, Moon Silence) One 2000 from a Christmas event a year or two back (Silence) One 2014 from New Year celebration (Monte Carlo) One 5000 from Tanki's Fifth Birthday (Polygon)

Drugs may be annoying, but sometimes you just got to face it: it's a essential part of Tanki. I also have been playing Tanki Online for three years and have had many experiences with druggers, including myself. Yes, I used to be a drugger, although I am not anymore. To me, using drugs for anything else but to catch Gold Boxes and to defend yourself from opposing druggers means you don't have either enough bravery or skill to keep up to the real tankers in the game. This aside, there are many skilled druggers, but if you're only in it to dominate, then learn how to fight the right way. I agree that druggers can be annoying, that they make you mad, that they can think that they are cooler than anyone else even if they need that extra bit of help. But if you are a real tankman, then you have got to persevere and succeed no matter what you face. You can't just go running at the first sight of something that might be bad. I mean, a lot of druggers lack skill and with experience you can take them down before they do you. So come on back. Try to succeed once more. Be a real tanker.

Yeah, it was a lot harder to catch gold when it had a more random chance of dropping somewhere. I wish developers would tell us the logic behind where the gold drops. If they could send something like that out in a VLOG or just out in general explaining why gold boxes fall in certain areas more than others.

One: either he wants to be part of it (like me!)Two: he is part of it Or Three: he is simply sharing his opinion. I find nothing wrong with any of them.

It's exciting to see sparks of ideas building up inside tankers, the will to try even harder do be the best. On that, a congratulations is in order.
