What means "he's a dev" ? 

Why does he got the colour? 

Is he still playing?

1. Dev = Developer

2.To make him unique and to give him the protection from all the guns, to give him "Godmode"

3.I dont know, maybe .

Ok I just want to summary all Days we've got!   :) 

 

 

 DAY 1

 

 

1. At 0:31 in the video, you see a flash of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory"

 

 

2. At the map "Factory", we find the number "166887":

 

 

3. In the Russian forum, use the above number (166887) and go to the respective thread: http://ru.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=166887

 

4. In the opening post, click the first link. The word translates to "GAMES"

 

 

5. Click the link and it will show this image:

 

 

6. The picture is marked with a "1", so the answer is probably "2042". However, as Semyon said that it wasn't, we try to go further. We see "COMBA" instead of the usual "COMBAT ZONE, NO EXIT". The "NO EXIT" has been edited. They key word might be COMBA, COMBE (Tanki Map+ English version of COMBA), COMBAT ZONE (another AlternativaPlatform game)

 

 

 

DAY 2

 

 

 

1. In the video, we find two clues. The Twitter Bird and Semyon mentions Herman Melville's most known book (Moby-Dick). We start with the second hint. Dick=Dictator. In the Garage, Dictator's description includes a link. It links to a page, which needs a password to be opened.

 

2. To find out the password, we check out Tank's Twitter. There, a picture has TANKSUNG written on it. 

 

3. We enter it as a password and get a picture of Arnold Schwarzenegger, with 1997. We find out that he has played in "Batman and Robin in 1997. He played "Mr. Freeze".

 

 

4. The answer might be Freeze. The Hint could also be something else.. We look again at the Twitter's phone. It has "12 24" written on it. It might be a clue to find another keyword! 

 

 

DAY 3

 

 

1. We got some hints in the Video of the day. First we got the hint of Tim Robbins books. First we found the book Noise and we searched for hints in the map noise. We found there a half You Tube Link. The other hint in the video to search in the topic of Update 200 lead us to the other half of the link. Because the video was deleted the Game was refreshed. After the refresh we just found the YouTube Link in the Update 200 Post. 

2. In the background of the video there were a picture of an event in Tanki. After finding the topic with the event and the picture we got the next hint.

3. At the picture above is the time at that we need to watch the video. The video was from Depeche Mode - Enjoy the Silence. 

4. As Seymon said we just need the title of the video we can guess that the answer is silence. Moreover at the time 4:25 in the video, you can hear nothing. And a second after you can hear the word Silence. Some people think it is ydzero but I think Silence is more connected with the hints then ydzero. 

 

 

 

DAY 4 ! EDIT !

 

 

1.  We hear in the video the sentence "Life is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you get". This sentence is out of the movie "Forest Gump". 

 

2. The title of the movie includes the word Forest. Forest is a map in Tanki Online. 

 

3.  When we search the map we find two symbols at the sky. On is from Facebook and the other from a social network in Russian. 

 

4. When we look at the Facebook page at the first picture we find another hint. The sign with the guy at the stairs. 

5.   The sign leads us to the map Subway. There we find the number <4> and 24% behind a wall. 

6.  The other sentence in the video "When you meet other tanks it is difficult to determine the outcome of the fight" tells us that we need to look at times when you know the outcome of a fight,

 

for example if one has got an Isida behind. Moreover if two Isidas fight the outcome is also not clear. 

 

 

7. We need to look at Isida. 24% has nothing to do with Isida expect the protection of some paints. ALIEN has got 24% protection against Isida so it is near that Alien is the answer. Mary has

 

24% protection in conlusion.  

 

 

! EDIT ! : Today I noticed that the description of the paint Alien could be a hint. The description tells us of a legend about an UFO. If the "blue things" at the sky of the maps Future and Factory are UFO's (Unidentified flying objects => as we do not know what they are) the answer probably is ALIEN and not ISIDA.

 

 

8.  In my opinion Alien has a bigger connection to the hints than the other paint. So the answer could be Isida or Alien. I do not think that it could be Mary becuase the connection is not so clear

 

than by Isida. 

 

 

 

 

 DAY 5 ! EDIT !

 

 

 

1. First of all there was a QR code on a pleasure of maps where we found a QR code which gave "game" by scannning it: http://en.tankiwiki.com  + /game =  http://en.tankiwiki.com/game/ 

 

2. The link lead us to the puzzle above, which need to be solved. The guy in the picture is Hazel-Rah. (In German Forum ist was Valery-Schuhmann)

 

3.  We went to Hazel-Rahs profile and found a link which lead to the picture below. In the picture you can see the player Godmode_ON and a sign that says doom. The player Godmode_ON should be a special player. He has a colour with 88% protection to all weapons and when he gets killed 3 Gold boxes fall. 

 

 

His colour is called devil:

 

It is not the colour Ruby:

 

Compare:

Ruby on the left site and the colour of Godmode_ON (Devil) on the right!        

 

According to McMacklemore here some Informations about Godmode_ON:

• His paint is called Devil. It has got between 66 and 90% protection of all weapons.
• When he joins and leaves a battle a gold box drops. 
• Because he is hard to kill 3 gold boxes fall, when he is killed. 
• He is no Hacker / Cheater
• Rumors say he is controlled by a Developer but know one knows if it is true. 
• He is able to change his ranks. He also is able to have e.g. Mammoth m3 when he is not the last rank. 
• Freeze and Firebird afterburns does not work on him. 
• He's mostly on Polygon DM

http://tankionline.wikia.com/wiki/Godmode_ON                                   

 

4.  If you go to the Doom wiki you will found a cheat code IDDQD. It was a cheat used for the game DOOM.  It sets health to 100% and makes player immune to damage. It's called  "godmode". With the cheat you turn the Godmode on. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So in conclusion we've got probably this answers:

 

 

 

 COMBATZONE / COMBAT

 FREEZE

 SILENCE

 ISIDA / ALIEN

 GODMODE_ON / CHEAT

 

 

Nice work however you should change colour to paint. Fantastic!

Please notice: I am German! If I translate the Word DOOM in German it means Destruction... 

 

If we look at the picture again: 

 

The Tank (Godmode_ON) + DOOM (destruction) = Goldbox 

 

Because if you destroy him the gold boxes fall! 

[Jayjey419 41]

Clever thinking juli :)

This has been suggested before.The doom font is the same as the games logo:

Doom game logo (above)

Hazel-Rahs profile picture.

 

As you can see they are the same.So it must suggest the game however you might be right, the logo might be put there on purpose to make us loose track. To be honest i think you could be right, Godmode_ON's destruction equals gold boxes falling, the equation makes sense now!!

[Daniel3009 0]

yh wow nobody saw this befor ...

the Link +  /game/  = puzzle   ;-)

[shadowvisionto 5]

Has anyone considered the possibility that Godmode_ON could be an AI (Artificial Intelligence)??

[phill4177 115]

HIGHLY DOUBT IT..Its a dev probably..

Edited January 5, 2014 by phill4177

[Daniel3009 0]

Number 5 is verry easy:
What happens if Godmode_on were destroyed ?    A Goldboy appears 

5 : Goldbox

Goldboy??  LOL  :lol:

[Reeco9 1,567]

I'm just thinking about how fun it would be to be the dev who plays Godmode_ON... Imagine being paid to sit in an overpowered tank and slaughter players all day :)

[Etair2 25]

Goldboy??  LOL  :lol:

well, anyway... we kinda narrowed day 5 clue down to GODMODE_ON/Goldbox

[Etair2 25]

does the player "GODMODE_ON happen to do with silence map?

 

i will occasionally come across a silence match on a server titled "GODMODE_ON" 

[Etair2 25]

well the name of match is "GODMODE_ON"

serv is normally 1

[Reeco9 1,567]

well the name of match is "GODMODE_ON"

serv is normally 1

Some people will name a battle 'goldbox' or 'godmode_ON' in an attempt to get more people to join.

Thank you all for sharing.

 

My 2 cents about this contest :

- developers are now reworking the maps. I would bet all words are map names… we already have a few, but it doesn't always match.

Exploring this option would give : 

 

Day 1 : From the hint Comba, and assuming 2042 is NOT the answer, remains "Zone"

Day 2 : Freeze is NOT a map name. However 12:24 *may* be the time of a hint when watching Batman & Robin … Not sure about this, can someone have a look into the movie there ?

Day 3 : "Silence" seems pretty well worked out !

Day 4 : The UFO lead has to be followed. There are 2 possibilities, which I don't like… Unless there is an actual UFO hidden in one of the maps somewhere

Day 5 : Godmode on is often seen in "Polygon" . I would go for it.

 

So this gives Zone, ?, Silence, Future/Factory, Polygon

hmmm

not bad, u have a good point but yur unworked out answers may lead us away from this possibility

btw, how did u get zone for day 1?

[phill4177 115]

well, anyway... we kinda narrowed day 5 clue down to GODMODE_ON/Goldbox

I dont think it might be Godmode_ON. Goldbox or Goldboxes is quite likely to be the answer.

[Etair2 25]

wait so supplies go out to only players who get it correct?

or anyone who tries?

[COUNTER0076 17]

First of all I want to congrats all people here for the good work , keep going.

I want to tell you something about a mistake (in my opinion)

that i spot in all this so far.

Word or picture which is a clue can’t be the answer.

As an example see the second day answer in which everyone agree so far

FREEZE , the two clue were DICTATOR and 1997 (photo Arnold).

So everyday we have 2 words (or 1 word plus 1 photo) as clues to find the answer.

We must use them to find the answer but these can’t be the key word.

We must use both two clues to have the same answer ,

not an answer from only one of the clues. I think we must be careful in this task.

Some other thing is that the answer can’t be a number or two words.

With all these in my mind i wrote 651 post (page 33) and post 568 (page 29).

 

So for 5th video we came with two clues together :

Godmode_ON + DOOM = ?  and of course we say that the result is GOLDBOX

But goldbox are two words together , gold + box , so this can’t be the answer.

Then what is the answer ? The key – word ?

Well what gold boxes have ? CRYSTALS 

For me this is the answer.

 

Now for 1st day we have a photo of map 2042 (mark this as first clue).

We must use this as a clue because the photo is in this map and not in any other map

where the sentence “you are in combat zone” exist. (and there are many maps with this)

In this photo we see the skull and the word comba.

Normal there is a sentence which is

YOU ARE IN COMBAT ZONE

If we erase the word COMBAT we have :

YOU ARE IN ZONE (mark this as second clue)

Now first clue + second clue we have :

YOU ARE IN ZONE 2042

If you try to find what this means you will get

the military language for the hour (TIME).

In 24 hours clock ZONE , 2042 is 20:42.

So the answer for the first day is TIME

 

Maybe i am wrong , maybe i am right. My answers are :

1. TIME

2. FREEZE

3. MOON

4. ISIDA

5. CRYSTALS
