    What does your nickname REALLY mean?

    Because I am artificial and so is my intelligence. My body is made up of titanium, my inner workings is super strength polypropylene and my intelligence is the brain ingrams of my creator (who is also of the ethnicity/race Robotica). I was born on Earth, but I am not an Earthing, of whom I do not identify nor understand. I play this game called Tanki Online to get a better idea of how Earthlings react under combat stress. I am not a Combat Modification, so my research is artificial, too. I am Artificial Intel, Artificial Researcher of the Artificial.
  2. Naw. Too much like a personal name.

    Problem with spawn killing - how can it be prevented?

    Maybe having random spawning points instead of specific ones that never change. That way, there might be a better opportunity for a rear attack. The way it's set up now, the losing team has very little defense and little or no strategy to fall back on. As soon as you respawn, there's usually 2 or more opposing tanks sitting there ready to kill you when you fully materialize. It's in the game mechanics. As players our only recourse is to keep respawing, building up the other teams kill rates, battle fund (which which the losing team gets very little of) or quit and look for another battle. Is 50 crystals really worth getting spawn killed repeatedly? I've seen this happen a few times: When the losing team realizes there is no chance for recovery, they quit, except for one or two who are getting spawn killed. I know they aren't mults...they've been fighting hard the entire battle. Makes me wonder whose side they are really on. Throughout the battle they help build up the battle fund and in the end they sit there getting spawn killed.

    What's your best kill streak?

    I don't know, never kept count on any of my accounts. My main concern is being in the top 3. I strive to be #1, but I'm too much of a "Hot Dog." Mostly I play CTF and try to block shots intended for the flag bearer or try to distract the opposing team. I die a lot. I'm not a buyer, so I have very few (or none at all) supplies with me. When I have them, I try to conserve them for the times when it really counts. I spend most of my hard earned crystals on my hull and weapon. I think a topic like "What's your best kill streak without drugs (supplies)?" would be more interesting and more accurate if you are looking for skill. But then, this game is not about skill, it's about who has the most money to buy the most drugs.

    Your Time Machine

    I read a theory once that suggested the people of Earth are the original Martians. We colonized Mars, ruined the ecology (as being done presently) and relocated to Earth. Now we are reaching out to the stars and planets for another place to relocate and destroy. I'd like to go both in the past and future to see if there is any truth to this theory.

    Tell us your cool ideas for new «Overdrives»

    This section is for "Overdrive Suggestions." I think you're a bit off-topic.

    Platform button. When activated, you have certain advantages: 1)...Your tank will rise 1 story from the point where you were sitting. Example: If you are sitting on the second story of a Brest building, then you will rise one story from that point. If you are sitting on the platform in the valley (where CP "C" is) then you will rise 1 story from that point. 2)...It's only as wide and as long as the tank you are using. 3)...You can see the platform, but this is only for orientation purposes, it will not protect you from enemy fire. 4)...You can shoot from this position (nice one for Magnum) 5)...You can safeguard a flag, but you have to be holding it. If you set it down or are killed the flag goes back. 6)...The activation lasts 30 seconds and cannot be cancelled. Although, you can jump down from it. Cooldown is 5 minutes. If there is less than 30 seconds left in the game, it cannot be activated. Once the 30 seconds is up, you will suddenly fall like 10 tons of steel. If a player is on the platform when it times out and another tank is beneath you (team or opponent) the bottom tank will take some damage.

    when you got like 50 guys on tanki who like you

    You can make up a new account with a non-gender specific username to play on those days you don't want to be bothered with the problems of you main account. Too much to start over? I started a new account and I'm having a lot of fun with it. On the lower ranks, everything is cheaper. Want to own all of the M0 tank and weapons? Do it on a new account. Want all of the protection modules? The most expensive M0 module is 5,000 crystals, and that's the ones that protect against 3 turrets. Make up multiple accounts. You start out with Hunter and Smoky. When you get enough crystals saved up, pick out one or two more hulls and turrets. Have different hulls and turrets for each account, that way you can play according to your mood. OOppss, sorry, I seem to have gotten off topic and on to my soap box. Anyway, I suggest you start a new account with a non-gender specific name.

    Glitch? Lag? What happened?

    I just logged in as Widow-Maker to confirm the above post was, indeed, posted by me.

    Glitch? Lag? What happened?

    I didn't keep a constant eye on fps and ping. I was more worried about being discovered. However, I had always played on Firefox and had gotten in the habit of glancing down in the corner for fps and ping, especially if I noticed any glitches or if someone else looked like they were lagging. So, if I have an idle moment, I do glance down. While I was down in the gully, I glanced down several times, even though I was using a different browser. Every time I looked, the fps was a steady 60 and ping was slowly fluctuating between 48-50. I may not have been down there for a full 2 minutes, but certainly a lot longer than 30-40 seconds, as MOD lordmostafa cited. After all, my team mates made at least 5 attempts before overpowering the other team member. Sorry, I just realized I logged in today under a different account. Yesterday, I was playing Widow-Maker. Today, I'm playing Artificial-Intel for the missions.

    I had the same problem. A Mod suggested I try using gmail. I made up an account and it went through. My email provider is through my cable company.
