even with my horrible english skills i need to ask things to get clear idea and give opinion on a constructive way (im a visible face of many of my clanmates (ACA & ACA-T) that dont know enough english or dont have the time to come to the forum as often than i)
sooo after all these reading of the things i added on spoiler with sources etc,...
¿the prizes now per team member or are the pools that give solid teams less gold?
the roster changes makes teams with less members more efective prize wise than were before.
i think the "more prize for less members" was a factor for teams with less than 20 players doing tecnical defeats, and now they can change roster.
when you read my post, please keep in mind the intention of this post is not agresive my english skills arent good enough to give the intentions to the text.
The ture intention is to be constructive givig the "why" i think like that.
and not necesary to be for this season, it may be for future events/tournamets/etc,....

the classic rules
first was:
then changed to
now is
the first data divided at 20 members of a team isnt the same as the per player prizes...
examples of First and Eighth Place Prize:
with previous prize info:
First place = 1.455.000 / 20 = 72.750 each team member
First place = 1.455.000 /  8 = 181.875 each team member
-
Eighth place  = 105.000 / 20 = 5.250 each team member
Eighth place  = 105.000 /  8 = 13.125 each team member
the previous prize info will be changed due the fact of the now allowed roster changes? or you think its fair to keep the pool system the same?
i think the prize should be changed back to per player not a pooll...due to the fact of roster changes allowed.
isnt the same as before.
with current prize info with no pool:
First place =  97.000 = 97.000 each team member
Eighth place = 7.000    = 7.000 each team member
its just the info i colected soo far...
thats why i ask for clarification and i give my idea for maybe upcoming events.
i love this tournament, that is why im interested on it, i dont know if my team will go to playoff or not, the teams from my clan never won a tournament prize till now, so isnt me asking to give me more gold, its just a constructive critic.
Best wishes & regards
i also want to give you my congratulations for the good organization of the event

TurboT, on May 04 2012 - 02:02, said: Hey just looking for brief clarification of this line from the WoT website regarding the playoffs:
Playoffs will be single-elimination. The winner of each round will be determined as the first team to 3 win
Single elimination is not first to three.  It's a confusing line.  I'm assuming the first few rounds are single knockout with the last two(or one) being first to 3...but clarification is appreciated.
Thanks,

Dear Wargaming, please stop trying to create guides which offer very poor advice for players.
Here's just one example, I'll add more later on when i'm back.

Let's start with the obvious, no sixth sense, no recon, no clutch braking, no smooth ride, no snap shot, no designated target, no brothers in arms.
Also,
- lol Eagle eye (a skill with a niche so small that it's pointless on anything else [that niche would be on a derp KV])
- lol Preventative Maintenance AND 2 firefighters (two skills which make each other redundant, that is if you're actually going to use EITHER of these skills, which no good player does anyway)
- lol, Controlled impact (if you get rammed by an enemy maus at any speed high enough to inflict significant damage and aren't detracked, you should be banned for stupid in any case, also no clutch braking)
- lol, deadeye (3% chance of crits?)
- lol, armorer (a pointless perk when there's the comparatively amazing snap shot)
- Lol, Safe Stowage, (the only real good thing is that it's a dump skill, personally I prefer intuition as my dump)
I also had a great laugh at how the writers actually had a problem deciding between a VStab and Spall liner.

How long does this process usually take Vallter?

Skill reset discount this week and gold ammo special next week would have worked soooo much better.

I tested this by buying T-127 package even though i already had T-127. Got the 400 gold and repair kit but that's it. No extra garage slot and no compensation for an existing tank.
Buyer Beware!
