Manganese

But he respawned

Granted. Your house is by the countryside, but in a slum. I wish I had a lemon that tasted and was just as sweet as lemonade.

I have some questions concerning the WAR: 1...Why did the Russians do so poorly? They seem to be the biggest druggers. Were they somehow instructed to lose? (I hope not) 2...We were suppose to keep our K/D rate up. Was this personal overall or per battle? I thought it was per battle so when my battle K/D started falling, I left the battle. Did I interpret that wrong?

I use Shaft on my alt account. In the present magnification I can see the barrel of a Magnum sticking up over a wall, put my crosshairs on it and...BOOM!!! Instant kill point. Why do I need more? If certain areas of tanks gave more kill points than other areas, then I could see a need for more zoom. Snipers (real life) have to have the ability to do one shot kills to the head or heart of people (not tanks) so they have to have a zoom to hit such a small area from a long distance. Tanks aren't sniped, they are ambushed. (Except in TO). If you can't see a tank through the present magnification, then may I suggest you get your eyes examined?

I looked these up on the New Player link: Happy.Kitty Fear_This Brave.Soldier Hellian How about the "Ded" Family (pronounced: Dead)? I.M.Ded U.R.Ded I.C.Ded R.U.Ded G.I.Ded M.I.Ded P.S.Ded E.Z.Ded My Halloween cemetery has many of the Ded family members buried there, these are just a few. They gave me permission to publicize their names.

Tanki has gone from virtual to reality with all the features we all enjoy, including respawning, supply drops...everything. Each player has been given one hull and one turret of our choice plus a crystal card. All the crystals we have earned will be accredited to card. A store has opened up where you can buy new hulls, turrets and all the other things a player may want to buy. Unfortunately, Tanki was not able to open a garage for you nor to make it possible to make purchases from a garage. You have the ability to transport your tank to any of the TO maps through teleportation. That's the background. Here's the game: 1...The person below you is your next door neighbor, also a TO Tanker. 2...Whether or not you like each other doesn't matter, unless you make it matter. 3...Do you like/love/hate your tank? Do you whisper sweet nothings to your tank? Are you emotionally attached to your tank? Did it do poorly in battle that day or did it do extremely well? What are your reactions towards it? Have you given it a name? One day, while talking to your tank, you neighbor overhears you. Tell us what it is you said. Then the neighbor makes a comment on what he/she overheard. Then that neighbor is overheard talking to his/her tank and that neighbor makes a comment. ============================================================================== Example: u812ic: I love you, Big Bertha. Player X_y-z (neighbor..person below me): When's the wedding? Player X_y-z (talking to his tank): What is wrong with you Tonka? You were acting really sluggish, today. Player_Player (person below Player X_y-z): Don't talk to Tonka that way. It isn't his fault. Tanki is building some new maps and the air was a bit polluted with the dust. Player_Player (talking to his tank) .................. ============================================================================ Get the idea? I hope this isn't too confusing. You can make it serious, funny or however you feel. Maybe there are things you really wish you could say to your tank. Say them and your neighbor comment. All Forum rules apply. Please refrain from being too insulting to your neighbor. He may sabotage your tank. ================================================================================= =============================================================================== I'll start: You did great in battle, today, Mr. Vulcan. We actually came in 3rd!! I loved the way you handled that Magnum. You deserve a fresh coat of paint.

All the tanks moving all at the same time and if all the tanks would stop moving and only one moved like me for instance then there would be no lag and I would be able to play better and more efficiently by being able to cap all the flags and change all the cps and kill everyone giving me top score and I would be a happier player because I did it without lag getting in the way and I did this in one sentence.

Granted, but that would make you on equal grounds with God. God will get you for that!! I wish I had someone who will clean my house everyday and keep up the yard work.

I figured out that BlcclgiUwaa is CabbageRoll. Which isn't a very good letter substitution since it doesn't seem to follow a pattern. In Cryptograms there's a pattern to the substitution. But then, I guess we aren't playing Cryptograms. It seems he wants us to throw the keyboard keys up in the air and pick random letters.

I think some of you with high scores should go back and take the test again. This time pay more attention to what the question is asking. About half way through I started getting a bit confused about the wording and had to go back and re-read what was being asked.

That's why I try to follow the flag bearer or get as close as I can. If I can't catch up to him, I'll play interference if he's being followed by the enemy. My Murphy's Law: This has happened to me a couple times. My team is in the enemy base (including me) waiting for the flag, but not necessarily spawn killing. I die and respawn at my base. When I materialize, I see 2 drugging enemies spawn killing. I respawned in the same spot 4 times in a row. The 5th time, I respawned on the other side of the base.

I don't usually get the Gold Box anyway. So, I'll just look around my immediate vicinity. If I don't see the drop zone, I'll fire at the pile for some kills, grab a flag or change a CP.

@Katydid wants that Isida. (That's one of my alts).

Gotcha beat. I'll be 71 in July. No, I'm not going to show you my birth certificate, driver's license or anything else. You'll just have to take my word for it.

When a Wasp (or any other tank for that matter) is attacking me, I don't stop to ask what their M? is. Sorry if I sound sarcastic. They would have to have been M1s. I can't see an M0 in the WAR unless they were mults, which they weren't. Admittedly, I didn't think to check their module. A few weeks ago, I tried checking out the modules on the enemy, but all that came up were the ones for my own teammates. Haven't tried it since. Thanks for the info.

Why is Wasp more impenetrable than any of the large tanks? I have Vulcan M1 and Titan M1 with a few MUs each. During the WAR, I came across Wasps that would take anything I could dish out, including DD for my weapon and DA for my hull. I have never seen Wasps with that much armor. To add injury to insult, after I have exhausted the supplies and hit my RK, they still had enough energy left to kill me. It's unreal. Just now I was in a CTF battle and came across one of those Wasps. I'd start shooting before they got to me and it was like I was firing spit wads. I know I was doing damage, I could see the count. Is there a module for Wasps that makes them that way? I could kill a Mammoth before I could kill some of the Wasps. EDIT: Come to think of it, I came across one yesterday, too. The Firebird/Wasp was attacking one of my teammates. I started firing at the Wasp. I saw I was doing damage, but it didn't seem to phase the Wasp. I loaded a DD and it still wasn't doing that much damage. After he was done with my teammate, he waltzed over to me and kill me. As I was dematerializing, I saw him load a RK. The only one he used during that encounter. What kind of armor is TO giving these Wasps? Why do I feel my Titan needs to run away and hide when I see one coming?

I guess I still don't understand. It sounds like you're saying, if a player wanted to create a new account to start over, applying to the new account what he/she has learned playing the original account, said player couldn't pick a nickname from the list. The new account has to be played or it will be lost anyway. So, how can a nickname be "reserved" if it isn't played?

I see in I & S that 'add a "boss" enemy' has been started. Is this the new "boss"?

What do you mean by 'book' nicknames? Titles of books like: Gone With the Wind (by Margaret Mitchell), Coma (by Robin Cook), Face The Fire (by Nora Roberts)?

I'm the Little Brother of @OICU812. It's a family nickname, meaning everyone in the family plays some sort of online game and each of us, except my Sisters, has some variation on the nickname. My Brother and I are the only ones who plays Tanki. My Sisters have started their own tradition in nicknames. It started with my Dad's nickname U812. My Mom added U812-2. The rest of us added variations.

Oh, yeah, rrriiiight. Uh-huh. Like I'm really going to do that. Thanks anyway.

I'm getting a lot of players sending me a friend's list request whose own friend's list is full. Some are making multiple requests. Is there anyway to contact those players to let them know their list is full? I've tried finding them in battle, entering and sending a team chat to tell them, but I guess they don't speak English, they have chat turned off or they just don't notice. I don't want to spam the chat.
