Hi, everybody. Today is my last day at Alternativa, and before leaving, I wanted to say proper goodbyes to the best community of Tanki Online. Thank you, for the support and for kind messages you've sent every single day of the past year. I was often late to reply, but I read all of them, and in the most trying times seeing how much you care about the game, the friends you play with and the community would shake me up and remind, that this job is a privilege, that you trust a person to be your voice, and that this game is much more than just a new paint or a turret from time to time. This is your home, and it was an honor being your trusted messenger. Thank you, Fabi, Luci, Coop, Momo, Iris, Hex, Maf, Torben, Optic, Oguzhan, Nik, Hate, Goges, Jesse, Rigge, Strat, FBI, Eragon, Flexo, Sia, Michael, Destrod, Viking, SuperNick, Marc, Yele, Cyborg, emra, Momma, Felix, Joost, Telebrainz, romel, MSI, Ninja, many, many helpers who now hate me for not mentioning and who would sometimes write in the middle of the night, but also answer within minutes even on holidays and weekends, and never refuse the hardest Wiki edits and most sudden streams. Thank you, everyone in the Community team of Alternativa.Games! We've been through a lot together, and I know how challenging it was to work with a person of my character. Sasha, Sasha, Max, Nick, Masha, Kamil, Matias and Amanda, you guys freaking rock! And before we move to the part everyone is really here for -- the promo codes from the contests -- I want to welcome Cedric back into community. Thank you, for the impossible level of organization and for the help last year and during the last week. You've made the insane amount of documents and procedures look like an easy list of tasks, and I would have never done even a tenth of what was possible in the English community if you didn't build the titanic foundation within the teams and spreadsheets. Thanks dude! ... Okay, the lecture is over, let's get to the goodies: Tanki Drift I will be honest, making the video and looking back at how cool the idea seemed at the time, I realize now that I have invented a sport only I am good at, just like the yankeessorrytaspens. So please welcome the 1st, 2nd, 3rd place in the Edge Runner category! @SH4DOWTH4RUN.SK Congratulations, Shadow! You're getting later today a PM with 22 containers and 10 Gold Boxes, all in a form of promo codes. Raw Codes And stealing the show from the rawest thread, on the last Friday stream we held a special Codes Contest, where you had to share your favorite, most memorable moment in Tanki Online. Below are stories that deserve a secret gift waiting for them in the game: -- And this is it guys, the dawn of the final day. I will reply to everybody in PMs and Discord throughout the day, and when the duties are wrapped up, reports are done and last parting words are sent, I will shift into a slumber mode for the winter season, and hope to see everyone on Steam and PSN :) Remember: take care of your loved ones, never forget those who help you, work your butt off for your dreams, and most of all...

Had a brief heart attack :o

Hey man, your last upload was in August :( By the rules we follow it's 1 video per month.

This isn't the place for a discussion on the future of the game, but if you'd like to continue it, my PMs are open for one more day :) A legendary haxtor from Malta :ph34r:

Sadly didn't have a chance to meet him in person, but saw tons of secret Halloween photos of him :ph34r:

I've made the edits so it doesn't sound like it was a bad experience, challenging, rough, but not at all bad :) Yes, Cedric has been helping out with the V-LOG and texts already, a life-saver in the last week on duty! :D

Time management, a late lesson in life. Trust your coworkers, trust your admins to help and you *will* solve all problems together. And the unique lesson are the helpers. It was a complete surprise, looking at how much can be done by actual players in a game this big. I don't now what it took to build each team, but if I take one lesson, it's that the most important role in the team is a helper.

Hey, how it's going

I honestly don't know, but that was my guess too :ph34r:

I said it'll start 20 UTC, but did it at 16 :(

Shouldn't have done that. I should not have done that. msiyouwelcome

November 4th we will post the list of eligible channels and send the codes out.

Fair enough, thank you for watching the streams in the past.

I will share my insight into community management and which skills suit the position the best later today. If you have time to spare for one question, you're welcome to join and ask it directly, it will be answered.

I believe Cedric is the perfect man for the job, no need to rotate us every year :)

Tankers! In today’s episode we’ll be talking about the Halloween event. We'll also be reviewing in detail the new, updated missions, and talking about Tanki tournaments. Check out V-LOG 190 right below! Video of the Week Submissions Question of the Week Submissions -- Welcome back, dude :) . . Unofficial translations by:@CooperO (NL) @Past (HU)

Tankers! We’re picking up the steam and are getting ready for the next update! With server restart on November 3rd at 02:00 UTC the long-awaited option to change the color of your shots will be added to the game and to the following turrets: Firebird (standard — fire-yellow); Freeze (standard — light-blue); Isida (standard — crimson); Twins (standard — green); Ricochet (standard — orange); Striker (standard — white smoke); Railgun (standard — whitish); Shaft (standard — red); Now each of you can stand out in battles not only thanks to individual skill, but also because of the effective and colorful shots. Can you imagine multicolored balls coming from Twins or a bright shot from a Railgun? This is absolutely unheard of and looks very cool, and will for sure capture the attention of all players on the map! Make your tank more unique! You will be able to get shot effects only from containers (“Epic” category, violet glow). If you got a shot effect, but you don’t have the turret that can equip it yet, the effect will remain in your Garage until you get the turret, and when you finally earn the required equipment, you will be able to apply the shot effect that you previously got right on it. To apply a shot color, choose the turret you need and pick the desired alteration in the information window. Shot effect can be equipped on a turret at the same time as an alteration and a skin (if you have missed the latest releases, a big pack of new alterations just came out). We remind you, that very soon, on November 3rd, Gold Boxes will drop x20 times more often on a special Halloween map. And where Golds are plenty, containers will also drop way more often! Don’t miss your chance to find a new shot effect in containers! Launch the game tomorrow, share your screenshots of the cool shots, and follow the news — more updates are on their way!

I don't discriminate, I open the bag once, I throw away the bag.

I trust the new CM to handle the reveal sooner :ph34r:

Monday, November 5th is my last day on the job.

The mines should survive for one death, but hopefully I can provide a solid clarification tomorrow.
