DomoSapien: Compensation has gone out for all affected players. All tournament participants have received 2x 50% Credit Boosts (1 hr)

All teams that advanced past the first round received 1,000 Gold, split evenly between team members. We are hosting another Tier IX tournament with the same format and increased prizing this Friday! Registration is live. 

DomoSapien: Hey Tankers,
Thanks for all your patience. I know the tournament schedule thusfar has been a bit hectic, so moving forward we'll be doing our best to give you all at least 2 weeks' notice about all the upcoming tournaments. Granted, we have some tournaments coming up sooner than that, so let's dive into it. 
Friday 6/29: Friday Night Fights 3v3 (Redux)
We're going to redo last Friday's tournament since it was unfortunately cancelled due to technical issues. The payouts have gone out for all players affected by last week's issues, so log in and make sure you all got your boosters (and Gold for the teams that made it past the first round!). However, we know that quite a few players ended up purchasing tier IX vehicles or retraining crews to participate. With this in mind, we're going to have another Tier IX tournament on the same map, with the same tournament format. We've also upped the ante and added a portion of the Gold from last week's tournament to the prize pool for this week! The prizes for this week will be 50% higher.3/27 Format (Min tier 27)Tier IX only Best of 3 Single Elimination  Battles will last 8 minutes max.

There's two spawn locations for either side on Mines.  Heavies and TD's spawn at location #1 and Mediums, Lights, SPGs spawn at location #2. Why does this matter? This will be an Encounter Battle, with a Base Capture time of 45 Seconds!

If anything looks odd with the timing, please let us know. Quite a bit of dates and times in this wall of text! More tournaments are coming in the month of July, so please stay tuned!

TeriyakiTanker:   Why?  That doesn't make any sense at all, just like in real life a non-penetrating hit basically does nothing.  WoT covers this fairly well with critical hits, for instance if you hit the gun you damage the gun even if you don't penetrate.  For an abstraction it is rather realistic.

MA77:   A foco deste guia é explicar o motivo da escolha das habilidades e quais benefícios elas trarão para o veículo. Você pode pegar pequenas partes de uma gameplay para exemplificar sem problemas, mas que não sejam muito longas durante todo o vídeo.

Gnomon: Awesome video! Thanks for sharing it with us    And I'm with Meathead, did that accent kill your voice?

Gnomon:   ​Congrats on the Gigi! What tank are you planning to put him in? 

Gnomon:   Same! Thanks for sharing that video,  Eletron1c_!

MeatheadMilitia: Nice work     How's your throat feeling after attempting that Legendary accent? 

MeatheadMilitia: I can barely draw those circles haha   Well done! 

MeatheadMilitia: Wow! That is fantastic! 

MA77: Saudações, comandantes!   Hoje tem um novo concurso para criação de guias! No entanto, desta vez será algo diferente... Será sobre habilidades e benefícios para tripulações! É claro que, uma vez que existem diferentes tipos de veículos no jogo, o treinamento da tripulação e a seleção de habilidades e benefícios variam consideravelmente de acordo com o tipo e o papel do veículo em questão no campo de batalha. É por isso que para este primeiro concurso selecionamos três classes de tanques com funções específicas (que também serão as categorias deste concurso): tanque super pesado "ricocheteador", tanque médio franco-atirador e tanque leve.   Então, qual é a ideia? Que vocês criem guias sobre como treinar a tripulação levando em conta o tipo de veículo e o papel que ele deve cumprir na batalha. Para ser considerado, os guias devem conter as seguintes informações:   Falar de cada tripulante separadamente. Questões a serem consideradas durante a evolução da tripulação. A quantidade de habilidades/benefícios deve ser um total de quatro para cada tripulante. Conselhos úteis sobre treinamento e seleção de habilidades e conhecimentos especializados (vantagens e desvantagens, experiência própria, etc.). GUIAS ESCRITOS: Deverão estar escritos no fórum. Entradas com o guia completo em pdf ou imagem é proibido. GUIAS ESCRITOS: A utilização de imagens é permitida e bem utilizadas é um "plus". GUIAS DE VÍDEO: Somente publicados a partir de 27/06/2018. SOMENTE PARA GUIAS DE VÍDEO: Exemplos do que eles estão explicando (use somente replays próprios). SOMENTE PARA GUIAS DE VÍDEO: Os guias não podem exceder 10 minutos.   Exemplo: Suponha que você escolha fazer um guia de equipe para um tanque super pesado. Então, vocês devem falar sobre quais habilidades e benefícios priorizar durante a evolução, vantagens e desvantagens de treinar certas habilidades e habilidades antes de outras, que não são necessárias, que poderiam ser consideradas secundárias, etc. Vocês também podem mencionar os benefícios da combinação de certas habilidades ou beneficios com equipamentos específicos ou consumíveis específicos (embora não seja necessário). É claro que vocês podem usar tanques para suas explicações ou exemplos (independente de sua nação ou nível).   Os critérios utilizados para avaliação dos guias:   Guias escritos:
  Organização Objetividade Apresentação Veracidade das Informações   Guias em vídeo:   Organização Objetividade Apresentação Veracidade das Informações Explicação com voz é um "plus".   Como nas competições anteriores, lembre-se de que você só pode participar de uma categoria. Ou seja, se publicarem um guia escrito, não poderão publicar um em vídeo e vice-versa, nem poderão participar com vários guias escritos ou em vídeo. Apenas uma participação por jogador é permitida, independentemente do tipo de guia. Estes são os prêmios para este concurso especial:   Guias escritos:
  Melhor guia escrito sobre tripulações para tanques Super Pesados "ricocheteadores": T26E5 Patriot ou AMX M4 mle. 49 Liberté e 7 Dias de Conta Premium. Melhor guia escrito sobre tripulações para tanques Médios "Franco-Atiradores": Progetto M35 mod. 46 ou Centurion Mk. 5/1 RAAC e 7 Dias de Conta Premium. Melhor guia escrito sobre tripulações para Tanques Leves: T92 ou ELC EVEN 90 e 7 Dias de Conta Premium.   Guias em vídeo:   Melhor guia em vídeo sobre tripulações para tanques Super Pesados "ricocheteadores": T26E5 Patriot ou AMX M4 mle. 49 Liberté e 10 Dias de Conta Premium. Melhor guia em vídeo sobre tripulações para tanques Médios "Franco-Atiradores": Progetto M35 mod. 46 ou Centurion Mk. 5/1 RAAC e 10 Dias de Conta Premium. Melhor guia em vídeo sobre tripulações para Tanques Leves: T92 ou ELC EVEN 90 e 10 Dias de Conta Premium.   NOTA: Se você vencer, deverá escolher uma das opções de veículo premium que oferecemos para cada categoria.   Para participar, basta publicar o seu guia escrito ou vídeo em um novo tópico na seção Guias e Sugestões e publicar o link para o referido tópico neste. Eles devem incluir isso no título do tópico: [CONTEÚDO-GUIA/VÍDEO] TIPO DE TRIPULAÇÃO. Por exemplo, se você publicar uma guia escrita em uma tripulação de um médio franco-atirador, você pode colocar algo como "[GUIA DE COMPETIÇÃO] A Tripulação Mais Precisa" ou "[CONCURSO-VIDEO] Tripulação Pesadona" se for um vídeo para tanques super pesados "ricocheteadores".   Vocês têm tempo até Sexta-feira, 27 de Julho às 23:00 BRT para participar. Os vencedores serão anunciados na sexta-feira, 03 de Agosto. Os melhores guias escritos serão fixados na seção Guias e Sugestões, e os melhores guias em vídeo serão adicionados à nossa playlist em nosso canal oficial do YouTube.   Sabemos que este concurso pode gerar algumas dúvidas devido à sua complexidade e modalidade, por isso não hesite em publicar as suas preocupações neste mesmo tópico para que possamos ajudá-lo.

Jambijon: Hey TheD3vilDogGG!   This is a really cool idea and also have been enjoying your streams!   Could you edit the post and add your youtube channel?   Keep up the good work!

Gnomon:   Sorry to hear that you're having troubles with the game. I'd recommend contacting our CS team: World of Tanks Customer Support   Follow the drop-downs for "Technical Issues" and let them know in detail what happens when you attempt to play. They'll have you try a few steps and ask for information in order to diagnose the problem.    Hope that you're able to get back in the game soon! 

Gnomon:   He can be put into any vehicle of any nation when you recruit him! 
This video explains it pretty well (at the 1:40 mark):
 

Felipe6666Original: El premio de 1.000 de oro a repartir entre los integrantes del equipo es lo que estaba pactado en las reglas. Si al momento de la suspensión del torneo habían alcanzado una posición correspondiente a dicha premiación, entonces es lo que se acreditará.   Desgraciadamente, no podemos investigar o verificar las inversiones hechas por cada uno de los integrantes de todos los equipos para compensar de manera acorde.   ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original:   ¡Por supuesto que sí! Estamos preparando algo muy especial para el próximo concurso   ¡Saludos!

TeriyakiTanker:   Usually when people say play lower tiers they really mean IV-VI, you really wont learn much at II and III.  Also to be honest in order to get better you need to play a lot which you really aren't doing.  Unfortunately this game is hard and getting better takes practice.  I would suggest just playing for fun and not focusing on  your stats.  If people are talking trash just ignore them.

DomoSapien: Hey everyone! 
I know there has been a lot of excitement (as well as a little bit of disappointment due to some technical issues) around tournaments lately. We're working hard on getting our tournament schedule for next month finalized, but in the meantime I would like to share some information with everyone that should help make sure that no one's issues are overlooked in case anything goes wrong with a tournament.
First and foremost, if you run into any issues with your tournament (disputes, cheating, technical issues, missing payouts, etc.) do not contact Customer Support. They do not handle anything tournament-related, and they will simply tell you to contact us instead. We check our inboxes daily, and while we can't guarantee we will always get back to you immediately, you will definitely receive a response.
Send a Private Message on the Forums to Me (DomoSapien) and Jambijon. Make sure we are both participants in the same conversation. This will ensure maximum visibility, and prevent any oversight.
In the Subject Line:  Name & Date of the Tournament, brief description of your issue. (Example: 6/22 Friday Night Fights: Dispute - Incorrect Vehicle Type)
In the Body:  Name of your team, Link to your team on the tournament page, and a detailed description of your issue. Please be sure to include any relevant information, times, replays, etc. in your message. The more information you can provide us, the more in-depth of an investigation we can conduct.
Are you a streamer? Considering recording your session and uploading it to Twitch + Sharing a link with us.  We can only draw inferences from the information we have at our disposal. If there is a technical issue, and we can't identify what went wrong, ensuring that the rest of the tournament runs smoothly takes priority over an issue with an individual battle. Resetting the brackets and forcing everyone to replay all their battles is something we'd like to avoid at all costs. 
We are working on some potential failsafes we can use as a workaround in case we run into major issues like the start times for all the battles getting borked like with last Friday's tournament, however until those are ready we have to do the best we can with what we have at our disposal.
Thank you for your patience and understanding. We're looking forward to ramping up our tournament schedule and getting you all more chances to earn Gold and other sweet prizes!
Much Love,

MA77: Muito bom, Eletron1c_!

DomoSapien:
Abysmal? I wouldn't say that. "Stale," perhaps, but not abysmal. Abbey, Airfield, Cliff, El Halluf, Ensk, Erlenberg, Fisherman's Bay, Fjords, Glacier, himmelsdorf, Karelia, Klondike, Lakeville, Live Oaks, Malinovka, Mannerheim line, Mines, Mountain Pass, Murovanka, Nebelburg, Overlord, Paris, Prokhorovka, Province, Redshire, Ruinberg, Sand River, Serene Coast, Siegfried Line, Steppes, Tundra, Westfield. That's 32 maps. Pilsen is being reworked and is likely to return, Port is being reworked and is likely to return, Northwest is being reworked, and might return. Dragon ridge? Probably not. Pearl River? Possibly.  Players have mentioned they would like to see the return of Mittengard and Ghost town as well. It's possible these will return as well.
  Minsk and Studzianki have undergone quite a few waves of changes while they were on Supertest. As Gnomon pointed out they are in the polishing stages (if you check out the videos of studzianki and Minsk you'll notice that they are quite pretty/polished) so probably quite soon.

To clarify, the old maps weren't just "Made HD" - they were rebuilt from scratch. 30+ Maps in about a year's turnaround.   It's definitely difficult to process a chorus of dissenting voices, and figure out which needs to address. There isn't one correct side, in my opinion. Areas were flattened and widened in an attempt to address the concern that too many maps feature corridors, and those changes were received with a substantially negative response. If it's not a corridor then it's a field of death.   And it's not like we're not listening. Erlenberg has already received some changes. Mines is being looked at. Fjords is being looked at. It's not like we're ignoring feedback; these things take time. 

Gnomon: Awesome replay! I'm excited to get to the P.43 bis. I'm currently on the P26/40 and enjoying it, so I'm hoping the bis will be a lot of fun 

DomoSapien: Oh dang, this is pretty neat!  I didn't realize so many actual historical buildings were modeled into the map. The more you know.

DomoSapien: Three new maps currently up on Supertest: Berlin, Minsk & Studzianki/Poland

Felipe6666Original: ¡Saludos, Comandantes!   ¡Les traemos un nuevo concurso de creación de guías! Sin embargo, esta vez será algo diferente... ¡Será sobre habilidades y pericias para tripulaciones! Está claro que, al haber distintas clases de vehículos en el juego, el entrenamiento de tripulación y la selección de habilidades y pericias varía bastante de acuerdo al tipo y rol del vehículo del que se trate. Es por ello que para este primer concurso seleccionamos tres clases de tanques con roles específicos (que serán también las categorías de este concurso): tanque superpesado "rebotero", tanque mediano sniper y tanque ligero spoter.   ¿Cuál es la idea entonces? Que creen guías sobre cómo entrenar tripulaciones teniendo en cuenta el tipo de vehículo y rol que este debe cumplir en batalla. Para ser consideradas, las guías deben contener la siguiente información:   Hablar de cada tripulante por separado. Cuestiones a considerar durante el grindeo (eliminación de tripulantes o fusión de roles). Deben utilizar al menos cuatro habilidades/pericias por miembro de la tripulación. Consejos útiles sobre el entrenamiento y la selección de habilidades y pericias (ventajas y desventajas, experiencias propias, etc.). SOLO PARA LAS GUÍAS ESCRITAS: Deben escribirlas en el foro. No se considerarán archivos .PDF o imágenes con texto. SOLO PARA LAS GUÍAS ESCRITAS: Pueden utilizar imágenes (su buena utilización es un plus). SOLO PARA GUÍAS EN VIDEO: Ejemplos de lo que están explicando (usen replays o videos propios solamente). SOLO PARA GUÍAS EN VIDEO: Las guías no pueden superar los 10 minutos. SOLO PARA GUÍAS EN VIDEO: Solo los videos publicados a partir de hoy, miércoles 27 de junio, son válidos.   Ejemplo: Supongamos que elijen hacer una guía de tripulación para un tanque superpesado "rebotero". Entonces deben hablar de qué habilidades y pericias priorizar durante el grindeo, ventajas y desventajas de entrenar ciertas habilidades y pericias antes que otras, cuáles no son necesarias para nada, cuáles podrían considerarse como secundarias, etc. También pueden mencionar los beneficios de combinar ciertas habilidades o pericias con equipamientos o consumibles específicos (aunque no es necesario). Está claro que pueden utilizar los tanques que necesiten (indistintamente de su nación o nivel) para sus explicaciones o ejemplos.   Criterio para evaluar las guías:   Guías escritas:   Organización Objetividad Presentación Veracidad de la información   Guías en video:   Organización Objetividad Presentación Veracidad de la información La explicación con voz es un plus.   Como en concursos anteriores, recuerden que solo pueden participar en una cateogría. Es decir, si publican una guía escrita, no pueden publicar una en video y viceversa, ni tampoco participar con varias guías escritas o en video (una por tipo de tripulación). Solo se admite una participación por jugador sin importar el tipo de guía. Estos son los premios para este concurso especial:   Guías escritas:
  Mejor guía escrita sobre tripulaciones para tanques superpesados "reboteros": T26E5 Patriot/AMX M4 mle. 49 Liberté y 7 días de Cuenta Premium. Mejor guía escrita sobre tripulaciones para tanques medianos sniper: Progetto M35 mod. 46/Centurion Mk. 5/1 RAAC y 7 días de Cuenta Premium. Mejor guía escrita sobre tripulaciones para tanques ligeros spoter: T92/ELC EVEN 90 y 7 días de Cuenta Premium.   Guías en video:
  Mejor guía en video sobre tripulaciones para tanques superpesados "reboteros": T26E5 Patriot/AMX M4 mle. 49 Liberté y 10 días de Cuenta Premium. Mejor guía en video sobre tripulaciones para tanques medianos sniper: Progetto M35 mod. 46/Centurion Mk. 5/1 RAAC y 10 días de Cuenta Premium. Mejor guía en video sobre tripulaciones para tanques ligeros spoter: T92/ELC EVEN 90 y 10 días de Cuenta Premium.   NOTA: Si ganan, deben elegir una de las opciones de vehículo premium que ofrecemos para cada categoría.   Para participar, solo publiquen su guía escrita o en video en un nuevo thread en la sección Guías y Sugerencias y publiquen el enlace a dicho thread en este. Deben incluir esto en el título de su thread: [CONCURSO-GUÍA/VIDEO] TIPO DE TRIPULACIÓN. Por ejemplo, si publican una guía escrita sobre una tripulación para un mediano sniper, pueden poner algo como "[CONCURSO-GUÍA] La tripulación más certera" o "[CONCURSO-VIDEO] Tripulación para pesos pesados" si es una guía en video para tripulaciones para tanques superpesados "reboteros".   Tienen tiempo hasta el viernes 27 de julio a las 23:00 h (ARG/CHL) - 21:00 h (COL/PER) - 20:00 h (MEX) para participar. Los ganadores serán anunciados el lunes 30 de julio. Las mejores guías escritas serán pineadas en la sección Guías y Sugerencias y las mejores guías en video serán añadidas a nuestra lista de reproducción en nuestro Canal Oficial de YouTube.   Sabemos que este concurso puede generar algunas dudas por su complejidad y modalidad, así que no duden en publicar sus inquietudes en este mismo thread para que los ayudemos.   ¡Saludos y buena suerte!   P.D.: Sí, tomamos prestada la idea de ____MICHA y otro jugador de Brasil y le dimos forma. Esperemos que salga bien

MA77:   Isso terá sempre, Marechal.

Nós estamos montando o próximo concurso um melhor estruturado, para quem vir a participar melhor entender e desenvolver seu guia.

MA77: Muitos jogadores utilizam modificações por gosto pessoal, seja para modificar os sons de disparo, skins de um determinado veículo ou até mesmo a interface do jogo e isto é algo que não interfere no jogo dos demais players.   Os trapaceiros não são bem-vindos e por este motivo nós temos a Política do Jogo Limpo, que os bane do jogo constantemente.

Qualquer jogador que utilizar uma modificação proibida será banido permanentemente do jogo (de acordo com as regras da Política do Jogo Limpo) e isso é algo não muito legal.

Reforço que a Wargaming não recebe financiamento de terceiros para permitir a utilização de tais modificações fraudulentas a jogabilidade limpa do World of Tanks e seus demais produtos.

Felipe6666Original:   Durante esas 4 horas de LATAM es cuando el cluster tiene más usuarios activos al mismo tiempo (data del servidor, no mía). NA, por otro lado, tiene una cantidad mucho más alta de jugadores conectados al mismo tiempo durante una franja horaria mucho más extendida porque los beneficia tener jugadores de costa a costa atravesando varios husos horarios.   ¡Saludos!

MA77:    ​Ainda não foi decidido, mas será algo do tipo.

A premiação de participação não está ruim no final das contas, porque tem o B2 (raro) e três dias premium. 

DomoSapien:  The East FlankThe East Flank is typically where mediums and lights tend to gravitate, as AirG mentioned. You have opportunities for scouting across the valley, although chances are there are some TD's hiding in bushes beyond your view range thanks to their combined base camo rating as well as the additional bonus provided by the heavy foliage on the Northwest ridgeline. Typically, you will want to stay safe on the East side, behind cover. Take care when moving across the eastern ridge from behind cover, and be hyper-aware of the potential for covering fire from the west at all times.
 Expand 
The Middle FlankThe middle flank offers sniping opportunities across the Eastern Valley, as well as opportunities for brawling in the town. (I haven't included screenshots of town because your positioning in town will be extremely situational.) As mentioned in the previous passage, you have quite a few opportunities to hang out in the bushes across the valley, however it's necessary to exercise extreme caution because if you get spotted from a particularly aggressive light tank pushing through the town, you're likely to take a lot of enemy fire rather quickly. There isn't much hard cover on the ridgeline, so your chances of survival are slim if you don't get out fast.EXPAND  
The NorthFlank This flank is arguably the most important It can crumble rather quickly, and losing this flank will give the enemy team potentially overwhelming map control. This ridgeline is a dangerous one, as there are a lot of opportunities for crossfire. High risk, high reward is the name of the game. If you have decent gun depression, you can poke over the top of the ridge, but you need to be aware of Td's camping the redline. Typically, firing from behind foliage at the redline will still cause enemy TD's to break camo, but if they have high alpha damage, trading might not be worth it (especially if there's more than one.)
This tends to be the Heavy Push, as even vehicles with poor gun depression parameters can find a place to get some shots off. Like the Eastern ridge, you need to be aware of all the potential firing angles.
