Nope. Just a difference of 1

pedro is putting us to shame with his gold count lol

Any way the crystals could be added to accounts before the MU sale is over? Just wondering, not trying to be pushy or anything. And congrats to all of the other winners!

Yep, I was confused on the same thing as 9IRK as well on my first one. However, I read the window and waited until the timer hit 0:00, then it automatically transferred me over to the battle. Also, look at this 9IRK's profile- 46k page views in like 2 weeks, and then a 32.50 K/D. Very impressive

^^ Pedro, same thing just happened to me. Gold number 53, second of the day; Viking is treating me well. I almost had another in poly cp, but a fat mammy took it instead. It was dropped by realog12, the viking twins m2 in mac n' cheese paint.

Back after being gone for 2 and a half weeks, and I think Tanki is giving me a welcome back gift. Gold number 52 on main: Gold number almost 50 (I think) on alt:

Check out #7. And yes, the center is a drop zone, but I have no experience seeing a gold there.

53

I always just use dictator's hardcore lagging abilities at that one. If I'm not using dictator, then I just pretty much drive blindly into the pile lol.

They need to tone down the colors. There is almost no contrast between tanks and the ground.

I agree. The most recent screenshot just seems too busy to me. The graphics seem out of focus, and they take up too much space. The maps look great, but gameplay looks confusing, and needs to be cleaned up.

I had a "Mr. ICan'tTurnMyTurret" in a 4v4 sandbox with me today. Went a little something like this: Me: yo (insert name here), turn your turret Noob: Why? Me: Because Smoky sucks if you dont Noob: But I don't smoke. Me: ............

Mixed feelings about this. We made an amazing comeback, as we were down 4-6 at one point. I rushed to cap the last flag, and the gold popped up at the same time as when I capped it. Very fun game though, first time I've played xp/bp in a while.

I will, but it will be a few weeks until I get another opportunity to write a guide. Sorry, I made this point really unclear, let me elaborate. If you an an enemy are close together at that drop zone within 10 seconds of the siren, initiate combat with them. If they are about to kill you, let them (unless using titan or mammoth). If you use your repair kit in that little 1v1, you will most likely die before the gold hits the ground. However, if you get killed, you will most likely get back to the drop zone in time, and you will have your repair kit.

Lol, more like: "sorry for catching so many golds" But hey! I ain't complainin! I made a cameo in one of them so its all good

Then its your fault. Since you set it to some random email with a random password, there was no way possible that you could have changed the password. I you had been smart and set it to your email that uses a different password, you could have simply changed the password and emailed tanki help to have the crysals added back. All they would have needed to see would that the crystals spent were not on your ip.

I have only gotten 1 gold mission, and that was during the New Year's event. So never gotten a mission for catch a single gold box, as that was for 5 golds.

Great article. Also, Iran is the only current map to have flowers. The map in the attack mode during the new year's celebrations had a few flowers in it.

The Ultimate Gold Guide: Polygon People love catching golds. They're also addicted to Polygon. I personally think that catching golds is one of the best parts of Tanki, and have caught a gold at almost every spot in Polygon. So, I have decided to write a complete guide for how to catch a gold at every drop zone in the map. To start is a few basic tips of gold hunting that applies to catching gold-boxes on any map. Always look for the high ground- Getting on top of tanks is the key, and the best, most reliable way to do so is getting on high ground close to the drop zone. Use a hull that is large in size- while wasp may be fun to use and may catch a few golds, dictator and titan are reliable gold-catching hulls. Be ready to use a supply or two- you gotta drug to catch golds, it is as simple as that. Time it right- This will come with practice, but you need to be able to time when you make your move to get the gold; too early and you get killed, too late you arrive too late Ok, now that we have gotten the basic tips out of the way, it is time to look at how to catch golds at each drop zone of the map. By the way, the yellow dots that were so prettily drawn in on Paint are the drop zones, and the orange lines are routes to get to the ideal jumping zones. 1 and 2 These drop zones use basically the same method. All it takes is getting to the top of the ramp. While the best position is where my tank is, right next to it is almost just as good, and behind it also works. It is all about timing your jump- most people mess it up here by jumping too early, and getting the gold taken by someone on top of them. If the gold is dropping at the very bottom, make sure to keep your main move to the gold in one constant line of motion, instead of stopping on top of the shed. Tip: It is wise to make sure you are not pinned against the wall. I have been pushed by so many tanks against the wall, that it took me and extra five seconds to squeeze out into my jump. 3 This is one of the toughest drop zones on the map. The prime position is on top of the tube, but it is very hard to get right. You have to get to the drop zone within the first two people, but make sure you do not get pushed off too easily. If you do not get on top of the tube to jump, it is best to go from the top of the ramp and hope you can get on top of some people. However, the person on the tube will almost always get the gold. 4 and 5 These zones use the same strategy. The best way to catch a gold on these two is to use the ramp to get on top of someone. It is pretty straightforward. This one also has another strategy. If you come from the right of the upper drop zone marked here, drive a few tanklenghs past the drop zone, then let the tanks coming from the ramp push you slowly (you driving into them, of course). Tip: If you do not get a great spot on the ramp, it is possible to get on top of them. If there is someone stuck next to the ramp, get on top of them, then drive on other tanks to eventually get on top. It is tough, but still possible. 6 Almost the exact same strategy as zones 4 and 5, but just coming from a different angle. Once again, it is pretty straightforward. My one caution is to make sure you don't get pushed into the cave/tunnel. 7 This one is my favorite zones on the map, because there are so many ways to get at the gold. My personal favorite is shown in the first picture. If there are tanks in the tunnel waiting to jump, simply jump on top of them and let them drive you up into the gold. This starting place is uncontested, so almost always available. The other, more popular zone, is shown in picture 2. I'm sure you have seen it used, but it is a hard place to get, and you will inevitably be pushed away from the ideal zone. Tip: While at most spots, timing of your jump counts, at this one, timing of your arrival at the jump zone is crucial. Come too early and you get pushed off of the ideal place, too late and the spot is already occupied. Also don't be afraid to push someone else away- all if fair in love and catching gold boxes (I think thats how the phrase goes). 8 This one is interesting. It sometimes does not have as many people competing for the gold, as they simply do not find the zone. The strategy involves lifting the front of your tank off the ground using the rails of the bridge, then getting on top of the pile. I would recommend using the side away from the center of the map, as there is oftentimes many more tanks on the other side of the bridge. 9 Now for my second favorite drop zone. The strategy shown in both pictures is the same. Jump on the tanks that will inevitably be camped on the drop zone from the raised areas. I would recommenced using the place in the top picture, as it is generally not as well-used, meaning it is easier to get to. 10 The best way to get this gold means you have to get to the drop zone early. If you're using a big tank (you should, if you want to catch a gold), block off the entryway to the drop zone. Shoot at people that try to get through, and let the gold fall uncontested. While this will not completely work, there will most likely only be 2 or so people under the drop zone with you, as there will still be a bottleneck once you stop blocking off the entrance. Tip: If you happen to be in the awkward situation where you and an enemy both arrive at the drop zone early, be the first one to fire. They will almost always start killing you first, so be sure to initiate the battle to increase your chances of staying alive. Also, if you get to the zone early enough and this happens, DO NOT use your repair kit (unless using titan or mammoth), as you will die and be able to return to the drop zone. 11 This one is pretty easy. Just get a good position on the ramp, and jump at the gold. A very easy spot if you are using dictator, but next to impossible if you are using wasp or hornet. 12 and 13 Drop zone 13 (the one farthest away in the picture, is the worst drop zone of the map. There is not much skill involved, unless you get lucky enough to hitch a ride over to the drop zone from where pictured. If you don't get a ride, drive off to a side of the zone closest to where people will be pushing you, so you get pushed on top of the zone, not away from the zone. Zone 12 is almost identical to zone 11, so the same method is used there. 14 and 15 Zone 15 is just as bad a zone as 13. Use the same "strategy" as previously described. Zone 14 is pretty much identical to zone 12, so once again, same strategy. There is a second strategy, so read the next little paragraph for that. 14 and 16 This starting point uses the same strategy for both zones. Drive to the left of the ramp, and jump onto someone that is emerging from underneath. Then, just ride over to the zone on top of them (if you get lucky). For zone 16, if you don't get lucky, it is better to push the pile from the left of the picture, as most tanks are lined up parallel with the ramp. Dictator Tip: The best way to "lag" on top of someone using dictator is to have people drive into your sides. You will almost always pop on top, so if you are planning on using your nice, cheap advantage to get a gold, make sure to position yourself so people are driving into your sides. That sums it up! I hope this guide was helpful, and feel free to share anything that I missed in the comments. -@Jwimmer

Another one. Started at the ramp on the raised area off the the left of the picture, then drove up about 2 tank-lenghs to the forwards part of my tank, and lagged on top. After that it was easy. chat afterwards was horrendous. Worst chorus of "hacker" that I have ever seen, had to explain that it was lag. Was one of the most intense games of Poly CP I have played. The enemy team had 4 m2 isidas, which was tough to deal with. The highest lead either team got for the last 10 minutes was 10 points, then the other team would cap. We got a bit unlucky and came up 3 points short, but still a fun game.

Much easier said then done. I attempted to quit tanki last fall, but got back into it.

Stormbringer. Or go with your namesake and get destroyer, but I would reccomend stormbringer, especially if you like posting in this topic.

wrong topic, bub. Also, you are just ranking to first lieutenant- nothing real crazy about it.

First gold with Euro paint (alt). Bought Germany on main and Portugal on Alt, because I expect those two to face off in the finals, but have no idea who will win that. And the final scoreboard (120 kills!) 2.6k total cry, almost got another gold as well. A dictator got on top of me and got it.
