And why are people still arguing about how much they got? :D

discussing, not arguing.

My bad.

 

So why are you still discussing- weekend long over. :)

As Blackwasp777 pointed out, the baseline is important. If you want to describe what a regular player would get, in terms of an increase, compared to what they previously got should they have bought premium at this time then a 200% increase would be right.

 

But a premium tanker already in receipt of the pass does not get this. He gets a 50% increase - see above as already explained.

 

In your example where a premium tanker would normally be awarded 1000 crystals;

 

Prior to promotion:

1000 normal

becomes 2000 after bonus added

 

2000 total.

 

 

During promotion:

1000 with 50% increase becomes 1500

becomes 3000 after bonus added

 

3000 total.

 

3000/2000 = 1.5 which is equivalent to a 50% increase, not 200%

I took it that the "bonus" was based off the straight baseline award (before any adjustments)

"50%" bonus (on baseline award) for regular tankers.

"150%" bonus (on baseline award) for premiums.

 

guess it's all in the interpretation.

So in hindsight either could be correct.

Because I was wondering why the line,

"For Premium tankers, the bonus is even bigger... 150%."

was added. The wording was ambiguous at best.

The premium bonus to me means the doubling of any reward and that number goes in the bonus column on the scoreboard. For tanki to say the bonus for premium tankers is even bigger... 150%, made me think that it's no longer 100% for the duration of the promotion. 

 

This example is how I interpreted it when I read it.

A standard reward of 1000 get's a 50% increase becomes 1500 and that number sits in the reward column.

The bonus column which is usually 100% becomes, "even bigger... 150%", so that number would become 2250.

 

It was extremely sloppy of tanki to word it this way imo.
