Once upon a time, there was a brand new company that created play parks. They decided to set up their first play park in a city full of many other play parks. Because of all the competition, they realized they would need an interesting and novel format that would attract kids from all across the city. The company hired all kinds of intelligent people to being the creation of the park. When it was finally opened, children flocked from all over town to visit the park. No entrance fee was required- however, one could only play at the park for a few hours before a small payment was required. The play park wasn't made of the highest quality material, and it didn't have the aesthetic flare of other parks, but its intriguing design was one of a kind. The monkey bars were just the right height and length, there were exactly the right number of swings, and the large curvy slide was extremely entertaining. From day one, the company drew in an unprecedented amount of revenue, and soon hundreds of kids visited the park every day. Of course, there were still a few problems with the park- the equipment would break, and kids would get hurt every now and then. But the intelligent design of the park kept it going. Eventually, the park owners decided that they needed to expand. They acquired the plots of land next to the current park, and set up new equipment. This was all well and good, but many of the park's visitors felt that the new expansion lacked the creative vision of the original. Nevertheless, the park continued to gain popularity. Children of all ages and types would spend hours playing in the park. The park owners decided they needed to introduce one major update to the park. They needed to stun everyone, or the park's popularity bubble might crash. Looking around at the other huge, beautiful parks, the owners decided they would re-make the entire park, with the highest quality material. The park employees told the park visitors of the upcoming update, and everyone was excited. However, the builders who would rebuild the park took a very long time. Month after month passed after the original deadline, and the park owners decided that they needed to change the plan. Unfortunately, they failed to appreciate the true reason why the children liked the park: It's originality. The park owners planned to tear down the old park, and set up an entirely new park with a similar but different design. And that they did. When the new park was introduced, some children were elated, and some were horrified. Many children flocked to the new park at the beginning, if anything just to gawk at the changes. The park owners were very enthusiastic about this popularity. However, the park's attention began to wane. Overall, the children were not impressed with the changes to the park, and they began to play elsewhere. The park was still very popular, and this popularity was still increasing. The children that liked the park invited their friends, and a chain reaction began. But, the park's revenue definitely wasn't increasing. The park was much bigger and with many more employees than they began with, and they realized that an economic emergency might be looming in the future. Thus, the park owners increased the fees and decreased the amount of time one could play in the park without paying. Less children entered the park because of this, but the revenue was definitely increased. The park makers still felt like they needed to stun the children in order to bring back the glory days. They planned the introduction of an entirely new park, just across the road. Perhaps if they created a brand new park separate from the original, popularity would increase. They planned for this park to be introduced in a year's time. Meanwhile, they shuffled through more and more employees. At some point, the park makers stopped caring about the quality of the old park. After all, the old park wouldn't matter all that much when the new park was introduced. The only thing the park owners really cared about was their profit. What they didn't realize was that the children were more perceptive than at first glance. They realized the greed and plots of the park makers, and they complained. The employees laughed it off, they were only children. The park makers continued to increase the fees required to play at the park. A year or so passed, and the deadline had been reached. Still, the new park was not opened. The park owners were once again running low on money, so they decided to make a few features of the park only accessible by paying customers. A huge slide in the middle of the park was only available to those with a special ticked that costed money. The children hated this new update, and dozens stopped playing in the park altogether. The park owners continued to tell the children that all the problems would be solved in the new park. However, they refused to say if the new park would be as free as the first one. In fact, they refused to say almost anything about the new park. More and more children dropped out, and the fees rose sky high. The park makers blamed this incident on the changing demographic of the city. The children who had initially played at the park were now older and no longer wished to play at parks, and that is why less people visited the parks. This was partially true, but not entirely. Finally, almost two years late, the new park was created. A massive wall was set up around it, and the park makers only let a select handful of "testers" enter the park for the first time. Strangely, these "testers" appeared to be completely random people- the only common factor is that almost none of them had experience in the first park. This was purposeful. The developers wanted an entirely new and unbiased player base to enter the new park. They would try to keep the old park open, and keep the original group of kids in this old park. They did not want the old, committed players to "test" the new park, because they were worried they would lose customers from the old park, and thus lose revenue. They didn't tell any of the customers- they were just kids, of course. In fact, the company split itself into two pieces- the old park, and the new park. The employees would be completely separate from one another. This divide in communication was disastrous. No one knew what was going on, and there was absolutely no organization. Finally, the new park was opened to the public. It was good in the beginning, but soon everything dissolved into chaos. The park management was completely naive. None of their goals were accomplished in the end, and eventually almost all employees were laid off. For the next three or four years, the park continued to run. But the material was old, and the park was extremely unpopular. Eventually, the park declared bankruptcy. The park was torn down and the parts sold as scrap metal. The land was confiscated and eventually sold to a neighboring apartment complex. The park was over. Oh, and this park was called "Tanky". The end.

My nickname is dead serious.

BTW it was actually a wasp m3 and rico m3, screenshot proof as you can see.

Need any more proof?

What if instead of crystal boxes being +10 crystals, they were -10 crystals, so people tried to avoid them? ;) :P .

No, this is how he did it (im guessing): He went to settings, and turned the skybox off. Then he took a screenshot of that picture. He put the picture in gimp, or some other photo editing program, and he changed the dark green-brown background of the empty sky box into a background that he created, using the alpha channel and stuff.

Ultimate battle, this was before crystal boxes were removed so I would have earned a much higher battlefund now a days. I caught a gold box in it also.

Killeen. Killeen, Texas. Went there yesterday for a Basketball game.
