Contest [Issue 57] Map Renaissance Campaign - October

[Flexoo 6,980]

 

 

Hello, tankers. We've all been given the marvelous opportunity to choose from a colossal palette of maps, leading to diverse gameplay. Over the years, one map substituted the other on the illusory podium of 'most appreciated battlefields'. However, every coin has two sides, and we must acknowledge the fact that the vast majority of Tanki's maps are totally ignored, god-forsaken and seemingly doomed to obscurity.

 

Therefore, I'll try to see if we can avert the misfortune of rare maps with these monthly tasks and challenges!

 

 

 

:excl:  Important Announcement!

 

Since we still did not receive any entries which would provide all 4 right battle screenshots, it was decided to lower the requirements to three screenshots instead of four. In other words, if you deciphered at least 3 maps and already have screenshots from these you can now enter the contest. Prizes will be slightly changed in following manner: 1st place: 25 000 crystals, 2nd place 15 000 crystals  and third place 10 000 crystals. Good luck.

 

Contest is still running!

 

 

This month's task is quite easy, I dare say. You simply have to decipher the clues provided below to learn the name of the map. However, your job does not end by discovering the names - you have to consequently play on these maps, and provide a screenshot of a good game (commonly known as 'GG').

 

Of course, GG is a broad term, so I will clarify the conditions;

- The battle fund must reach a certain value and since each rank has different fund growth, the fund requirements will be as follows:
               If your rank is - - battle fund must be at least 500 crystals.

               If your rank is - - battle fund must be at least 750 crystals.

               If your rank is - - battle fund must be at least 1,000 crystals.

- Additionally, the number of players in the battle must make up at least 50% of the maximum map capacity (e.g. if the map's capacity is 10 players, there must be at least 5 tankers present in the final score table)

 

Screenshot requirements:

 

Your screenshots must meet these criteria for the sake of authenticity;

- Visible rank bar -  author of the screen must be the same as author of the entry.

- Time and date - screenshots must be taken after the official start of contest.

- You must wear Orange, White or Green paint.

- Only screenshots showing the final score table are accepted!

- The screenshot must abide the aforementioned battle fund and capacity criteria of being a 'good game'.

Clues:

 

If you decipher these clues, they will give away the names of the maps you're searching for.

 

 

 

Clue for Map #1

R.I.P. Republic

 

Clue for Map#2

 

 

Really think it through before you apply for the Reporter job.

Every day we face the ticklish terror from this so-called dictator,

venting his frustration on us.

 

Oddly, we obediently accept this,

lying hopelessly in dark tickle chambers,

using every fleeting second

to forge a plan to overthrow the Admin.

 

Is all this effort meaningless?

One could say yes!

 

No one was ever able to flee from the ticklish grasp of GoldRock -

Admin-titled philosopher in charge of the

reunited Reporter forces, who

yells constantly about the rather irrational,

maybe even impossible

aim of world domination - the

perpetual obligation of all Reporter Admins.

 

Checking this, he will be sure to mercilessly punish me, oh the

agony, I can't even imagine.

Nevertheless, we can't stay stationary.

.

Give me your word you will join the fight to

end this tickling terror that

smites our poor souls.

 

 

 

Clue for Map#3

 

Put this in your cookbook, k! This really easy-to-make creation will only take you a min to master and whenever your friends pay a visit you can astonish them, without searching for complicated food garnish. The only ingredient is naturally important! So, be sure to have at least one at home. Oh and that appetizing green paint really helps, don't you think?

 

Clue for Map#4

Help, I am stupid. How do I make my taskbar pop up when in full screen? And my date is not given in my taskbar. Plus, is it necessary to show the date?

It did say that it was compulsory.

 

I am not sure on how to make the taskbar pop up, but you could just play without it being in fullscreen. On the taskbar, bottom left, you should be able to add the date.

Just exit the full screen mode and take a pic that way. I am not sure why your device does not show the date/time but I am positive there are ways how to put time and date back on your task bar. Try checking online guides like this one.

Clue#4 is impossible

[fordmustang12345 3,910]

Do we have to get a screen from each map or just in one of them?

[Ninja 10,468]

Clue#4 is impossible

I'd say, incredibly hard, not quite impossible.

[Ninja 10,468]

Do we have to get a screen from each map or just in one of them?

From each map there must be one screenshot.

[omrot 2,327]

Do we have to get a screen from each map or just in one of them?

From each map. It says that in the Rules

Where do we send the entries for the mini giveaway? I'm nil chance of cracking codes.

1. Can we do the contest and the mini giveaway?

1. Yes you can do both.

2. Time limit is not important. Only requirements are fund and capacity as stated in the main contest post.

[Ninja 10,468]
