Hello contest lovers! Today, the Newspaper is bringing back an old - well, actually, a really old - contest back. In fact, the last time a contest of this type was initiated was way back ago in May 2015 by former reporter, SCYTHE. Take a look at what you have to do and get moving! _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Introduction: Basically, the main goal is to spell out a sentence with cropped screenshots of players that you have killed. To elaborate, you have to spell out the sentence by killing players that have names that start with the letters in the sentence. Thus, the objective of this contest is to spell out the following sentence: > The Newspaper team is always busy and hard at work < Please take a look at the example if you do not understand! Rules: The following should be kept in mind while attempting this contest: You can only use one screenshot per letter. Thus, you can't use the screenshot of one player whose name starts with 'T' to make up for all T's in the sentence. In a nutshell, every screenshot must have a different player. You are allowed to crop out your screenshots, and please do! You must be the one that killed the person in your screenshot. Post your entries below, and in a spoiler. Prizes: All players who manage to complete this challenge will receive a small bonus of 7 500 . Example: Take a look at the example of what to do below in the spoiler: Deadline: 25th September, 2017 Status: CLOSED _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Good luck to all participants!

This is the Khunjerab Pass, Khunjerab National Park, located on the Pakistan-China border. Also, believe it or not, I actually took this picture (was there on vacation like three weeks ago):

I didn't mean that I didn't like this update openly, like every aspect of it. It caused some changes, I mean, in a player's view, they are bad; but who knows, they might be good for the future of Tanki.

Writers' Corner (Additional Rules) - Font choices, sizes and colors have now been restricted. From now on, Trebuchet MS and size 14 are the default choices of font and size your article should be constructed using. You are free to use any color in your article's main body of text as long as it is easier to read and doesn't hurt the eyes. However, this doesn't mean that there has been a complete restriction on other fonts, no. You can use other fonts for headings and sub-headings, basically something professional like Georgia, Lucida Sans Unicode, Tahoma and so on. Additionally, you should refrain from using default font and size as well as drowning your article's text in rainbow colors as it only makes the work of the helper harder. Note: This doesn't mean that you can't use other fonts, like for example Courier New, which is a popular one when it comes to something related to robotics, waveforms of voices, timelines in stories and so on - but I'd highly recommend keeping those to a minimal too. - Restrictions regarding certain type of media. Pictures smaller in size can be pasted in an article without any concern. However, larger pictures, for example, any sort of wallpaper pictures, vertically-long comics, posters and other images (for example, memes) need to be in a spoiler. Additionally, all GIFs must also be placed in a spoiler. This is because the page loads a lot smoother when huge files like these load themselves out quietly in a spoiler rather than in the open with the rest of the page. WARNING: Plagiarism is strictly prohibited. We do not know how we can stress this more, but please refrain from plagiarizing others' work as it will lead to a ban. Additionally, posting ineligible and advertising topics successively may also lead to a warning, or a ban if the violator continues to do so.

I literally have no idea what those were and what they contained. I'll pass the post link in forward in our chat, regards.

Thanks for participating guys, contest closed!

Fixed and updated, thanks for sharing!

You need to write a message for the future people who will play Tanki and read the Newspaper - and you can't write "from the future".

:huh:

^ xD

Nice Video of the Week :blink:

That's Cedric, the CM I believe and not a developer? Should've put Semyon Strizhak there.

Actually both Rio and Polygon have become a lot better now - all I can say is one truly starts to analyze battle strategies at a higher rank, so when you reach one, you'll eventually thank the developers for doing this.

⚒ Fixed, thanks! ⚒

Ooh, Riddler finally with a good idea this time!

I don't have one quite yet, but am expecting a Labrador Retriever to arrive in just a couple days. I think I'll name him Draco :lol:

I told em he can have the third post completely, but why do that when he can just edit others posts as well in the first place?

(update) The maps from the test server are now in the game! Well, the Test Server has shown us the hidden once again. This time, it's maps. Here's the pictures of the changes made to certain maps - Brest: http://prntscr.com/fzq38b http://prntscr.com/fzq3jy Rio: http://i.imgur.com/q1HhVCg.png http://i.imgur.com/C46kvKi.png Massacre: http://tnkscr.net/UQiIJ4.jpg Polygon: http://i.imgur.com/tuJ8CxF.jpg http://prntscr.com/fzpxzd Industrial Zone: http://i.imgur.com/iXQnFo4.png http://i.imgur.com/618mcMe.png Desert: http://prntscr.com/fzq2dw Maps that are as of now, still the same: Barda Tribute Osa Aleksandrovsk (map still same but more points added in CP mode) More will be posted soon!

I'm sorry, but there's really no need of doing that in such a little contest (showing proof by screenshots or videos). I mean I did capture screenshots when the numbers were generated, but didn't post them as they weren't necessary to do so. This does not mean that these players were chosen without using the Random.org website; I can 110% assure you that they were.
