Also, how does he run the game? If he uses a special client, then there is a chance it records the passwords and sends them to the creator/hacker.

Yes, I actually use with the WASD and <>? keys. But the ZXC keys are so much more common, I decided not to mention it.

This was the old description. Unfortunately, this was found to be offensive by some players, and with update 166, the description was changed.

@JekaMIX is one of the most famous, if not the most famous, Tanki player of all time. He isn't very well known in the EN community, but his youtube channel has nearly 250,000 subscribers. And I don't know anyone who has received the blue sphere... but if you want to buy it, I would gladly receive one ;). I'm not exactly sure what they accomplish, though....

When I play on my pathetic laptop, it definitely increases fps by about 15 if I enable the skybox.

RIP :c Took a gold in a tandem tournament yesterday: I also saw a truly epic flip during the same tandem match: Oh, and I made a video, the first in a while:

o.0 I hadn't seen this topic before. I am living in Austin and have done so for the past few years. It's a very nice place, I prefer it to anywhere else I've lived.

Not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for, but here you go: F Major:

Are you asking for a two-octave A Flat and F Major scale?

Shed is very busy with real-life and hasn't been able to publish the results. The results will be published as soon as possible, hopefully at Issue 48.

You make some good points. Acts such as flipping/pushing your own team-mates aren't just immature, it is considered sabotage and is a serious violation of the game rules. It also shows that one has a very self-centered view of the game. Flipping a teammate with the flag will not lead your team to victory, and usually it will not earn you any extra crystals. It is irresponsible behavior simply for the purpose of entertaining yourself at the expense of others. I found low ranked ranked battles to be absolutely teeming with immature saboteurs. Sometimes it seemed that almost any teammate would seize any opportunity to push you off a cliff or flip you. In addition, a part of sportsmanship is having a little humility. When, after every kill, an XP-BP player types the words "skill )" into chat, this is not good sportsmanship. There is almost nothing more annoying than an overtly egotistical tanker such as this. Also, learn to deal with a loss. If you lose a match, don't blame it on your team, or the "noob druggers" on the opposing team (especially if you are at the bottom of the scoreboard). Everyone loses battles every now and then, and even if it is the fault of your teammates or the druggers on the enemy team, this is no reason to complain about it in the chat. It just makes you appear immature and incapable of dealing with a loss and unable to take responsibility for your own mistakes. Another part of sportsmanship is being able to handle criticism. If someone calls you a "skill-less noob", this is nothing to be upset over. Let's be honest: Do you really care what some kid living halfway across the world says about you? If you are spending a lot of your time online, then you need the maturity to not be enraged by petty insults and criticism. I have seen many absolutely childish arguments, comments, and responses in the chat of this game, and I often think that the tankers involved must be below the age of twelve. It's best to just laugh off insults. There is a difference between good-natured trolling and true disrespect, however. I have on occasion flipped my friends just to annoy them- and we had a good laugh about it. If your friend calls you a "hy6 n0ob", then they probably aren't being serious. Finally, the true sportsman goes out of his way to be kind and helpful. The best tanker is an individual who will un-flip his teammates if they have been flipped, or who occasionally gives the flag to another player who needs it for a mission. This is the best way to make friends, and is actually a rewarding way to play the game.

I have received a grand total of two personal discounts and zero test drives since the update was introduced. I believe that the chance to receive test drives and discounts is quite low. Most likely, you are just having a streak of bad luck. Do you have any other reason to believe that something is wrong?

Unfortunately, there is really nothing to blame but Tanki's servers. I remember that gold (I was the fat purple Dictator) and from my side of the server, I lagged through the gold as well. It's the principle of the matter :P Also, Goldboxes drop quite a lot more often at high ranked battles (because of faster increasing fund) so despite an individual Goldbox being a somewhat trivial amount of crystals, they make up the same percentage of our income as it does to a low ranker. Also, the reason we all play this game is for fun- and Goldboxes are one of the funnest aspects of the game. There is really nothing that we can do about Tanki's servers. Although, the physics and engine of Tanki X will be completely different, so glitches like these will (hopefully) happen less frequently, if not at all.

One of my earliest memories is playing a computer game involving fishes. I had no idea what the game was called or what the goal of it was, although I do remember that there were fishes. I was under two years old, so it was probably in the year 2000-2001. After that one experience, I played some rendition of Civilization. I remember being about 5 years old and staying up late watching my dad play it. I still play Civ4 from time to time, it's one of the best games out there. The next game that I encountered was Tanki, and other than a few escapades with a tank-game that shall not be named (abbreviated as WoT), Tanki is still the main game that I play.

Who is that amazing pro at the top of the blue team? And the round before, we almost won a 7 v 9 for what it's worth.

Can you describe the problem more? Does the game simply not load, or does it say that Flash Player is not installed? Screenshots would be helpful.

That is almost certainly just a glitch. It is happening more and more frequently- when someone joins the battle, they somehow start out with several kills, deaths, and score. It even happens in parkour battles. Since it has happened to me myself on multiple occasions, I know that it isn't a hack (although, who knows if the glitch is being exploited).

Additionally, you can apply to recover a lost account at this form: http://tankionline.com/forms/retrieve/en/. If you use chrome or a google account, often you can recover forgotten passwords by heading to passwords.google.com. If you ever clicked the "remember me" box while using your old account, the password should still be saved at this location.

No, I don't believe in ghosts and without clear and scientific proof, nothing could convince me otherwise. I do believe that the human psychology can play tricks on the mind- especially since we are built to always be on the lookout for human-like shapes and faces. Because of this, if you are alone, you may believe you are seeing figures and shadows on the outskirts of your vision, and even develop a sense of "being watched" and unease. I have had some strange experiences- doors opening and shutting repeatedly at night, as well as hearing unexplainable sounds and voices (usually when when I am sick). However, there is no "evidence" that comes even remotely close to proving that ghosts exist, and the existence of ghosts would go against all logic. I don't believe in them.

Currently, Tanki Online Flash is the only public version of the game. Tanki X has just entered closed beta, and undoubtedly the number of beta testers is far lower than the population of Tanki Flash. If you are referring to Tanki 2.0, the Tanki 2.0 project was cancelled years ago and its ideas were incorporated into the current version of the game. Does this answer your question?

I currently live in Texas- it is very warm here. As long as there aren't any cold fronts, it is about 60-70 degrees Fahrenheit during the winter. It has been several years since it has snowed here, and even then, it was just under an inch.

If you already own more than half of the equipment in a kit, you are not able to buy it. Both Fujiyama and Osaka include Hunter M1 and Sakura, so if you have already purchased one of these two kits, you are not able to purchase the other.

Greetings, readers! Here at the Tanki Online newspaper, we are passionate about providing you with information on all the latest updates, turrets, hulls, maps, contests, anything related to the community or game, and you can trust us to cover it all. It has only been a month since the last publication of the Dictator, but all manner of interesting occurrences have befallen us since.

No more chicken, officials demand By @Contradiction After the previous release of the dictator, it appears that a few high-level officials are putting a stop to all things chicken. For years the Dictator has published reports and informations about chicken. Unfortunately, this is likely the last you will ever hear about this area from the Dictator. Our personnel are still bewildered about this change-- I mean, what kind of lunatic dislikes chicken? We are even more worried about the future of the Dictator. Without the topic of chicken, we really don’t know what else we can write about. A public statement from the officials was released. It was only two sentences. “We are hereby issuing an embargo on all chicken-related material published from the Dictator. This is due to the fact that chicken, and chicken jokes, are so dead that they physically cause us to shudder while reading them.” We are even more concerned about the future of the chicken industry. Without the Dictator’s constant publicity of the marvels of chicken, the extent of the damage to the chicken industry is unclear but will most likely be impactful. Discrimination and intolerance by the Tanki Online Administration By @Contradiction Greetings, readers. It would be impossible to call this winter a calm one, even without the unspeakable bigotry still echoing throughout the community. This year, the Tanki administration did the unthinkable: They published a topic in which the staff administrators wished everyone a happy new year. Some even went as far as to say “happy holidays”. Naturally, the community was quick to protest. One such person, going by the name “misanthrope14733”, stated his frank thoughts on this monumental act by Tanki Online. “This whole thing has gone way too far. When I first saw the topic, I wondered if it was some sort of hacker who had taken over Semyon Kirov’s account. But no, one after another, each administrator replied. What kind of sick joke is this?”. Another individual, “i.is.maladroit”, had similar thoughts. “By what right does tanki online believe it can wish us all a happy new year? The corruption of Tanki is now very clear. What gives them the permission to interpose their own values and beliefs into our lives? What makes them assume that each one of us wants to have a happy new year? Some of us don’t want to be happy. Some of us don’t want to celebrate the new year! Some of us are dead and won’t have any chance to be happy during the new year! It is absurdly offensive and I would advise you all to join my lobbyist group in order to remove Tanki Online from the web.” Please don’t idle your engines! By @Contradiction As the winter progresses, temperatures drop and the snow rises. The overcast skies and gloomy glares of the two-dozen snowmen set up by your annoying neighbor may make it easy to forget your duty to the environment. But, despite the cold, your responsibility to the Earth grows only more important as time goes by. On behalf of the entire Dictator team, I beseech you to remember that carbon emissions can kill. It is of the upmost importance to be circumspect in the use of your tank, as the carbon dioxide released from your engine can be responsible for the deaths of millions of penguins in Antarctica. I know that TheKillerPenguin is more than a little bit annoying, but this doesn’t completely justify his death. We are begging you to stop your engine whenever you find yourself at a standstill. Even if your tank is not moving, your engine continues to idle. The best times to stop your engines is when you are a Mammoth/Twins camping on the flag, or when you are sitting on top of the goldbox symbol. Another great opportunity is when you are in the middle of capturing the last flag of a battle, but then you randomly stop to ask “admin gold pls?”. Be sure to stop your engine as you type this message. Mysterious server disappearances- Aliens are blamed By @Contradiction Here at the Dictator, it is our duty to report interesting and strange items of news. In this piece, we will provide you with a remarkably odd, yet true, story. Over the past weeks, many of us have been aware of Tanki servers flickering in and out of existence. Sometimes, we would plan to switch servers to join RU2, only to find that RU2 no longer existed. For all of us to whom this has happened, I know that this betrayal was almost more than we could take. But it kept happening, and on other servers at that. Our operatives have strived to uncover the secret behind these departures. The trail was a long and sinister one. We have found that these “disappearances” should really be called “abductions”. The extra-terrestrials behind this disaster appear to be studying conducting experiments upon these servers, only to place them back in the game in a few hours. Here is an interview with a player who was in a server as it was abducted: “There I stood, a Wasp/Shaft in Düsseldorf, trying to find out why everyone else was spinning in circles. Then, all of a sudden, everything vanished. The light and sounds of the battlefield disappeared from my vision. For an untold amount of time, I hovered in the gunmetal-gray darkness. Then, I gathered the courage to click the “Server connection closed: Re-enter the game” button. With a scream trembling with the joy of survival, I found myself in another server. I kissed the ground.” Fowl Update - TNT joins the anti-chicken movement By @TriNitroToIuene The battle between the chicken industry and the brass has taken a new, drastic turn. TNT, one of the explosive members of the chicken-industry-faithful reporter squad has switched sides and is now advocating for the removal of chicken from The Dictator Products, something even his own boss didn't expect. "This is unacceptable", El Hamster said in a press statement. "As a Reporter, one must take an oath for lifetime dedication to chicken. LIFETIME! And now we find out that one of our gang, like a common mult, has joined the dark side!" The reporters demand retribution, but El Hamster doesn't exactly mind - "It's just that I didn't believe he would do this. As long as TNT doesn't eat hamsters, I'm fine with whatever he does." Meanwhile, TNT had something to say for himself. "I'm a vegetarian!" he declares. "I hate chicken. What's the point of campaigning for something I hate and don't eat anyway?" And now, people claim a ReporterIntelligence goof up, demanding to know how a vegetarian with no interest in chicken was ever allowed to join the TO Newspaper. "I'm getting sick of you now. Get out before I bust my ninja moves," was all El Hamster had to say. In fact, a band of reporters is hunting down TNT as he speaks, thirsty for revenge. Stay safe, TNT. And don't come back without banning all the chicken in the dictator, down to a C. Tanki Wonders - Your Subconscious Questions Answered By @Vikingsrallentando TO Covertry has persuaded its way into the Dictator's heart and seeks to clear up some of the many Tanki Wonders of the world. This poem will change your entire view of the game itself. Not to worry, we have provided a link to the original poem, in case you ever feel like actually clicking on something worth while. Based on Why? by H. P. Stevens How? Do you know how the Gold Hunters catch all the Golds? Or how Isidas maintain score at top? How Fire/Wasp format has no form of scolds? How Smokeys critical at nearly every pop? Do you know how the G’issimos get XTs? And how everyone else gets their tank unstuck? How do most mults get away with ruining the teams? Do you know?
