The reason is actually TO's messed up point system, in my opinion. Let's take a Camp CTF 5v5: 4 team members camp the whole game and rack up points like crazy due to their kills. Each get 50 kills and die 5 times. 1 team member decides to play the game, by actually taking the flag and trying to cap it. He dies 50 times and kills 5. When he finally wins the game, what is the scoreboard? The guy who capped all the flags is probably last, since flags give very limited amount of points since they don't take into consideration how long it was since the last cap. (Aka how hard it is to cap). This guy also ends up with a very bad D/L on his profile. So why would anyone not camp?

What the hell is up with all these lags anyway? It can't be server overload... I remember a time when RU1 was always full (as shown in server list) and where even if you entered directly via link it would still sometime tell you to wait a bit since it was completely full... Yes, lags were there, but they were never this bad... and the difference is we have half the players on RU1 now. What is going on...

Or a huge sale coming soon xd

Can someone explain more on the players ratings? Seems like I just missed it 2 years ago xd what is it based on? :p And they said clan system will be implemented in a week or 2, is it just the 'clan' feauture or the whole package with clan battles too? Thanks :)

Awesome idea :) I honestly can't wait for the league system tho, it's more efficient to divide top clans and newer ones by that method rather than lowering prizes Int the hope that top clans won't find it worth the time :)

Advertising seems to have decreased, and if I'm a veteran here I need more motivation for me to play. That means tournaments. So what can I do? Plan A: Go to RU community, have a tab with google translate always on and play vs the best teams in tanki since there isn't a proper league system like in starladder Plan B: wait for the EN eSports team to make a league system (which was announced last October, 3 months ago, and absolutely very minimal info about it btw) which could take a couple more months, since it seems like the eSports admin is hugely inactive. Plan C: join unofficial tournaments with little to no prizes and still face the top teams here since anyone can join. I haven't played the game anywhere close to the time I used to play back when star ladder was here. Now I'm bored, coming online to check some new updates every once in a while. Oh well, since Cedric decides to turn a blind eye to eSports, as a player who has been here for 2 years, this game has put me off :/

That's the idea, but unfortunately people here prefer complaining and buying and wasting drugs, spending huge amounts on MUs and end up raging etc cos they can't get enough crystals for turrets/hulls... but find it way too expensive to buy a 5k pro pass ._. Ehhh sometimes I wonder what the IQ of an average player is xD

Not rly.. if you have 1% health and you shoot me first you'll be dealin a lo the more damage till I kill you for example. Many other examples come to mind, it's quite different :p

King, I already replied to you :p

Err... on the final day upon entering the keyword your score is shown... It is actually bi-annual, it comes twice a year, once on New Year and once in June (around the date of TOs bday :) )

3am for me, ergh :c oh well XD

95k?! :o that's a good start for the year for you xD Congo! First time I won something here as well, can't wait for the next one :)

I forgot I even took part xD thanks and congrats to all!

Nah they didn't deduct points, it's just that every keyword you enter on the last day is 5 points... and the 5th keyword is on the last day so it's gonna be worth 5 points :p

I scored 40 too, answer I said hohloma :/ Russians finished it before :p

It accepted panda

Cos its not a browser game :)

Well, it could be that there are far too many maps and it could keep giving you a type of map (ex. huge maps) when you want others (ex small ones..) main reason I can think of rn... maybe it would be good to change the maps weekly tho? And devs could program it to give a number of few maps, but with wide variety such as big/small etc..

.... Thanks for making me feel like dumb :lol: but ye he could be right ^ :)

I had the same problem :( but when I logged in the next day everything was working fine, and I didn't have any problems after that :)

Hmmm maybe the prob was kills aren't counted until you leave the battle? Cedric can confirm or something...? Like I know for gold boxes to be updated on the profile page you need to leave the battle... maybe it's the same here?

We're you banned due tomorrow spam just a few mins before? Sometimes it takes a few minutes for the forum to acknowledge that the ban is over :/ So he gets a reply 6 months from now...?

The price of a kit never changes, unless you have a fully MUed previous version of an object in it (example, Dictator M1, fully MUed 50/50). If you have Dictator M2, the price will remain the same :( The savings shown are basically the prices of the items in the kit which you don't own, (so basically rico, the paint and module) at their normal cost, minus the actual price of the kit. I hope this makes some sense atleast :p

Nah, I'm not saying don't let any alts in. The competition would be very minimal, plus its quite impossible to see who is an alt and who isnt. I'm just saying if the prizes are lowered (no paint, less crystals) , less alts would be there and the tourney wouldn't be 75% alts atleast... idk, just my thoughts :/ For example, would HG still enter the tourney if there wasn't a paint prize and if the prize wasn't 2 mill crys for the team? Ehh.. with CC9, I'm not sure if they would. I think that might motivate more main M2 accs to enter, and get them prepared for bigger tourneys once they get M3s. But getting rekt heavily isn't very motivational :x hmm idk, just my opinion :/ or maybe making the prizes divided by more teams than just the top 4 wouldn't hurt either.. :/
