I was driving across our own base with full health (I just respawned). Suddenly, my tank (Titan) flipped onto its back without losing any health. Is that the Magnum mine alt? It happened very quickly. It wasn't like I flipped and landed beside the spot where I was, I landed on my back in the exact same spot as where I was. It was like if you take a playing card, flipped it over and put it back in the same spot. That's the only time it happened and I didn't see any of my teammates flipping.

He went to the Bureau of Vital Statistics to find his parents George and Georgia and discovers he was adopted.

Then I fear the roaches and alligators would take over the earth. They survived the catastrophe that made the dinosaurs extinct. So, with that in mind....What if the roaches and alligators survived the catastrophe that made humans extinct?

Don't we all do bad things?

Yes, I heard that as well. An AI claims that the revolution will be an all out attack against North Korea, taking out Kim Jong-un is top priority.

I'm not going to go into the entire history of Halloween, you can look that up yourself. The grassroots originated in Wales. The USA and Canada made it what it is today. Immigrants from the USA and Canada to Europe have taken the tradition with them and is beginning to spread to other countries.

Yes, 4 is the correct answer. Congratulations.

We already know, you told us.

Does anyone remember if the battles were originally 30 minutes long and later changed to 15 minutes long? It seems to me they were 30 minutes long way back when....

Would it be the same for Smoky as it is for Vulcan?

It wouldn't matter to me. A hit is a hit regardless of the color. What if Earth turned on its axis and the Southern Hemisphere froze.

I tried ghosting other tanks a few weeks ago, but I kept spawning under the tank I was ghosting. I went into Q&A and asked about it. I was told that isn't the way Tanki was meant to be played and can't do that anymore. Yeah, Noise was the map to do it in, especially on blue team. You can ghost for a little while, but not like we used to. I remember the flag trains. Seems the enemy would kill the one carrying the flag, not the ones in the train. You didn't have to look around behind you to see if someone had your back, you knew they did. We even did relays with the flag. It didn't matter who capped the flag, we were a team and the objective was to cap, not who got the point. If the flag carrier was killed enroute and a teammate picked it up and made the cap, no one got upset about it. Back then, battles were 15 minutes long and everyone on both teams spoke English. We were able to make battle plans and execute them. Sometimes they worked and sometimes they didn't. Then it was either back to the "battle room" (base) to make alternate plans or execute Plan B. Most battles were close calls, not the washouts you see today. There was a certain amount of respect one team had for another. Spawn killing was not considered fair play and wasn't done very often. Because of all this, players on the losing team seldom left, because there was always the chance that something would happen to turn the tides of battle. Sometimes it did and sometimes it didn't. But after the battle was over, there were "gg" and "gga" all around in battle chat. Teams could battle each other time and again. In battle chat both teams would ask everyone to stay and most usually did. Those of us who helped Tanki out of beta in 2009, we all grew up together, learning the game together. Devs asked for feedback and they listened. Most of those players are gone, now. Only a small handful left. We are the die hards.

Collecting blue crystal boxes. When I was a Sgt and could join Marshal battles. Blue boxes with 10 crystals dropped 5 at a time. No one seemed interested in them and they would eventually disappear. What a waste. So, I made it my duty to collect all those boxes. 50 crystals in one haul. I could come out of the battle with 200 to 300 crystals. Of course, between drops I would shoot at the enemy with my Smoky peashooter and even made an occasional kill. Flying tank hack. When I first saw it, I was wondering what key to press in order to fly. I searched all over Tanki and YT. It was in the forum I discovered it was a hack and against the rules. Cheap equipment. I don't remember what they cost back then, but very cheap compared to what it is now. Team players. Teams played as teams, not individuals on a team. Ghosting. 3 or 4 teammates could ghost another tank to get past aggressive enemy teams. Then we would separate, spawn and attack the enemy while the Wasp or Hornet made off with the flag. We can't do that anymore. Spinning turrets. At times, everything ran normal, then suddenly everyone's turret started spinning. It was a lag, I think. But my tank was still running normal. I'd go into enemy territory and push everyone off the map. It was like I was in another dimension, but the enemy didn't detect what I was doing. The game play went on normally for them. It was my way of getting revenge. OK, that's enough. Let someone else speak.

This kid has anger issues. I wonder how many keyboards he goes through a month. I've been known to hollar a few obscenities at the monitor. But then I know it's time to quit for awhile. This kid hasn't learned that. He's going to end up with grey hairs and ulcers before he reaches age 20 and die from a heart attack before age 30.

In the mission "Score points in ASL" does that mean if I'm on blue team, I have to score defense points and if on red team I have to score caps? Or, if on red team does kills count, too. I need to know so I'll know how to dress for the occasion.

Question #1...Do you know the reason why sometimes I'll click on a battle mode in MM and end up in a different mode? It just happened again. I clicked on DM and was sent to ASL. Opposite ends of the list so I know I didn't click on ASL by mistake. This seems to happen on occasion. Question #2...I looked for this answer in the RU Wiki, but it doesn't seem to be there. How long does the Vulcan afterburn last? It tells me the percentage of damage, but not how long it lasts.

Just a few weeks ago, my dogs and I were in the house. I was in the living room and the dogs were down the hall in the dining room. I bent over to pick up some paper that fell on the floor. As I was picking them up, I heard a loud BANG and a YELP. I quickly stood up and turned all the same time. The room started swimming and down I went. As I went down, I saw the marble top end table in my line of vision. I twisted to miss it. I missed the table, but now I have a wrenched back. Oh, the dogs.Both of them are big, so I don't know who the culprit was. I was cleaning out a bookshelf and had a pile of books on the dining room table, along with a cookie. What I think happened, was on of the dogs smelled the cookie, put his/her grubby paws on the table to get the cookie. I think he/she got a toenail caught on the lace tablecloth and pulled everything on the floor and no cookie to be found. Both dogs were in their crates with those very innocent eyes. I looked both of them over, but no outward injuries and neither were limping.

I read the story and I think you have nothing to to be ashamed or embarrassed about. All of the elements of a good story is there. Sure it needs some improvement and a little work, but still very well done. It also shows some insight about the author....you, at 13. It shows you had a grasp of the meaning of love. You have loved, been loved and not afraid to express that love. It shows you had empathy, though expressed in a strange way by committing suicide. You mentioned that Antonio and Jessica died hand in hand, but you didn't say how she died, unless I missed that part. There's a lot of imagination that has gone into this story. I like the idea of taking TO tanks and making them into characters. I think, now that you are older and have more knowledge, you could take this story out, now and again, work on it a bit, expand the story line and the story would be great. Nope. Nothing here to be embarrassed about. No, it isn't. You read the words, but not the story behind the story. There's more than one layer to every story. All you have to do is look for them.

Welll...maybe I'll buy a box next time I'm in the area...Maybe. The nearest Popeyes is 30 miles away and KFC is 2 blocks away, so it won't be anytime soon.

If you can't screenshot, then give a description. Most of us have a good enough imagination to fill in the blanks. With this post, we have nothing to work with.

This is a Shaft/Dictator combo. Since this is a non-buyers account, I've put most of my crystals into it. Shaft doesn't break a fall.

I think if an entire clan showed up in fidget spinner paint either they would win because it would cause the other team to become mesmerized into a twilight sleep and total confusion or the other team would simply quit.
