Tanki Picture of the Day - Have any?

Interesting battle - just taking this as a bluntly honest example of both good and bad sportsmanship: 

 

- An unsporting loser: It became apparent that @C-130SkyTrain was clearly not playing properly when he discovered he was on the losing side (which to me, as a player who tries to put effort in whether winning or losing, was pretty disappointing to see). Pretty annoying to see my hopes of reinforcement dashed; I was under the impression he'd joined to play to his full ability, not half-heartedly.

- A mult: The shouted profanity into the battle chat as he failed to do anything with his M1 Rail and Mammoth. 

- An unsporting victor: Nice to see that @KillerXenaRider felt the need to continuously drug against a team consisting of just one active player, arguing that "he needed the crystals"... even when doing so, he still finished bottom of his team.

- A decent victor: Negatives aside, @gagasas was a player who seemed to be mature enough not to get involved, and simply played well for his team, nabbing the only gold which fell during the duration of the battle. Clearly a skilled player.

- A sporting victor: showed excellent sportsmanship, not least by correctly interpreting my sign language (in which I shook my turret from side to side to indicate a ceasefire :lol: Of course, this was ignored by Killer, even when pointed out by Arch, who also strongly discouraged Killer's drugging as unsporting (but to no avail). He always brought the game to a halt when the number of players on both teams became uneven, and was gracious enough to allow me to cap a flag towards the end of the battle, during Killer's drugging rampage. 

 

So, when you lose or win a battle, which category do you think you'd fall under? How many of you are sporting players, going above and beyond the norm? Or how many of you give up upon losing, or drug to distort and destroy gameplay?

 

Personally, I think what this shows is that a skilled player is not always determined by one's score or D/L, but by one's attitude towards other players (whether having won or lost).

 

BTW, the examples given were only for this particular battle. Maybe these players are normally better/worse, but looking at this single battle, this is what I observed.

Odd considering that I was in a battle with him and my team was winning by a good 15 flags yet he started to drug...

Meh, tell me about it. I know how exactly that feels...never mind. Be patient man....at times like these it is not good to go and shout and argue with others (Like nub Fatal did last time). Report them, if you have enough proof, or just let it go :(

 

P.S: Arch have always been a fair player, i am sure that he tryed to stop those guys in his team!

This would make an interesting "Poll Topic", as long as it isn't directed at any particular players. B) Just a suggestion.

Does it tell you if you're right? Or does it say that for everyone?
