Volier_Zcit: We understand the importance of being aware of what's going on around us, but this is not the place where you can discuss this kind of sensitive issue. Thread closed. Thank you.

dance210:   I haven't started processing the disputes for the Tank Destroyer Throwdown, so no payouts have gone out yet. It is very possible that you were paid from one of the other tournaments (all except the TD Throwdown should have been paid today).

GhostPrime: Hello tankers!  This past weekend was the first weekend of our "Holiday Ops" event. We would like to know your thoughts and feedback about this event, and please feel free to ask questions in this thread as well. 

dance210:   The Qualifiers will be run through Special Battles. That means, if a player disconnects during the match, you will need to play short.   The actual Silver League will be run through Training rooms; any DC rules for those games will be posted closer to when the season starts.

dance210:   Yes, there is a season break. Tourneys should be starting back up again at the beginning of January. I'm working on trying to get a Jan. calendar up before I leave on Wednesday

Yoott:   Schedule Mon and Wed starting at 6pm Pacific Starting Jan 16th (Subject to change at close of registration)

GhostPrime: Hello tankers, Just to update you all on the server issues that players have been experiencing; Please know that our Dev team is looking into the potential cause of this issue and we do expect server adjustments to be made to alleviate any lag or packet loss due to this issue. The idea is to roll out fixes very soon so everyone can enjoy the Holiday event.    Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter.   

GhostPrime:   Please submit a ticket on this issue. I'm not sure why this is occurring, they would have a better idea.    Now that everyone has had some time to play 9.17, what does everyone think about the patch as a whole?

GhostPrime: Hello Tankers, Now that you have had some time to play and experiment with the new line of Swedish TDs, we would like to know how the line and the new "siege" mode feels to you. After completing the Poll please discuss the tanks in this thread hereSome points to consider when leaving feedback:Would you like to see unique gameplay features like this with other tanks? How do these TDs perform with siege mode in general, and against other tanks?

THERE WILL BE ONLY 1 QUALIFIER TOURNAMENT FOR SILVER LEAGUE SEASON II 2016 - 2017 SO SIGN UP NOW Teams will be randomly distributed to groups for each Group Stage. Players are only allowed to participate in one Wargaming.net League and level across all regions. Teams can't have more than 3 players from out side of the Region. Region includes N. America, S. America and Central America. Please contact WGL league admin at WGLNA@eslgaming.com if you have questions.   Mods The use of any mod is expressly prohibited in WGLNA. Standard "vanilla" client is required from all league participants. WGLNA may request files, replays, logs, or any other information  at any time from any player participating.  ALL TEAM MEMBERS ARE REQUIRED TO SUBMIT REPLAYS OF EVERY BATTLE AND PYTHON LOGS EVERY MATCH AND MAY BE ASKED BY LEAGUE ADMINISTRATION TO PROVIDE PYTHON LOGS IMMEDIATELY AFTER A MATCH. Captains are responsible to collect sort, tag, and put into a zip file: replays, python logs, and screenshots and send them to WGLNA@eslgaming.com. These are to be submitted no later than 2 hours after the match end time (unless you have a second match on a night at which you will have until 2 hours past that match time to submit all files from all matches) Any Team who has a player failing to provide these items WILL/MAY be removed from competition and the team scores may be not allowed. Any team/players found to be breaking any rules WILL/MAY be removed from WGLNA on all levels - This will be at the League Administrator’s discretion.   7/68 Format Battles will last 10 minutes max. All maps are dual cap attack/defense mode. There are two sides on each map: attacker and defender: Attacker wins if their team is able to 1) cap one enemy base or 2) destroy all enemy tanks with at least one attacking tank left Defender wins if their team is able to 1) successfully defend both capture points from the attacker and survive for the full 10 minute timer or 2) kill all enemy tanks Teams will play one battle on attack and one battle on defense.   Group Stage Victory Conditions A team will play all teams within their group. Rounds begin every 26 minutes. Within a round, teams will play two battles: one on attack and one on defenses. Each battle will last 10 minutues; there will be 3 minutes between battles within a round. A team must win both battles to earn a win for that round.  A team will earn 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw and 0 points for a loss. Overall standings, across all groups, are measured by total points earned against total points possible. The final standings are used to determine the teams advancing to the Silver League. Final standings are cumulative across all three Group Stage Days.   Tiebreaker Victory Conditions The tiebreaker round is ONLY needed if there is a tie in the number of teams moving on to the Silver League after all three days of Group Stage. The tiebreaker round will be a single-elimination playoff series Battles will last 10 minutes max. There will be a 3 minute break between battles. This will be a first to three victories out of four battles, alternating attack and defense. The map for the tiebreaker round will be Ghost Town. If no team earns three victories, a special match will take place to determine the winner. The team that won the fastest on attack will pick attack or defense. If no team won on attack, the team with the most damage dealt will get to select attack or defense.  An in-game notification will pop up allowing all members of the team to select which side they want to start on. The side with the most votes will be selected. After the team has selected the side, the special match will start in game. Both teams will receive a notification when this match will start. The winner of this match will win the round.     Map Rotation Group Stage Maps will rotate in the following order: Prokhorovka Murovanka Steppes Mines Himmelsdorf Ghost Town Cliff Ruinberg Tiebreaker The map for the tiebreaker round will be Ghost Town   Tank Composition Teams may be composed of any tanks available in the game, regardless of the tech tree they are available in, with the exception of the special and unique tanks that were given as prizes in different campaigns, such as the VK 72.01 (K), Object 907, M60, T22, T55A or Object 260. If you have any questions if a specific tank is allowed, please contact the admin team (WGLNA@eslgaming.com) before using that tank.

The total amount of vehicle tier points in one team must not exceed sixty-eight (68) points (for a team of seven (7) players). All tanks in official play are equal in points to their tier with a maximum tier of ten (10). E.g. an IS-7 is a tier X (10) tank and is equal to ten (10) points Playing less than five (5) players in a battle will result in a forfeit of that battle.   Reporting Match Scores and Disputes Every team member MUST record and submit all replays of every battle they participate in. Captains are requred to take screenshots of all three battle results screens as well for every battle played. Upon completion of a match, both teams must report their match outcome by contacting the admin in the in-game chat channel and emailing a sorted and organized by player name zipped file with all match replays and results to WGLNA@eslgaming.com. Failure for every player to submit these items can result in a team's results being not counted and standings adjusted. Teams found using players that are not part of their roster may be disqualified at the discretion of the admin(s). Players must participate on their own accounts, Any sharing, or falsifying of play on an account can and will lead to permanent suspension from all league activities of that team member and the team itself as well as possible further sanctions against ther personal accounts.. In the event of a dispute, players should contact an available WGLNA_Admin in the in-game chat channel immediately. For a dispute after contacting the admin in the in game channel all screenshots and replays MUST be sent to the WGLNA@eslgaming.com email box League Admins may request additional information pertaining to the match, log files, extra replays, screenshots or video of a violation. Failure to submit these items may result in a dispute being upheld or thrown out. League admin decisions are final  

Njourour: Closed Thread. This will cause unrest.

GhostPrime: Hello Tankers! Now that you have had some time to acquire and play these Heavy/medium Swedish tanks, please let us know your opinion in this thread, and by filling out our poll.  Some points to leave feedback on:How does the new Swedish Heavy/medium line of tanks compare with other tanks in the same tier from other nations? How does the line feel as a whole?

Njourour: You can create a support ticket if you are having trouble with the game.   Closed thread, This will cause unrest.

dance210:   For the 1v1 Throwdown's, everyone who submits a dispute receives an emailed response. In some cases, a forum PM may be used instead of the email.   I've had emails bounce back as undeliverable for some addresses. It's also possible that the email gets sent to the spam/junk folder instead of the inbox.

dance210:   More tickets mean more data, which can help determine the cause. You don't need to submit a ticket, but it can be helpful when issues pop up.

NyxWGA: Hi folks. We're currently receiving reports of lag that we are investigating. Sorry for the inconvenience!

dance210: Tankers! We are aware of the lag issues and are currently investigating the situation. If you experience lag spikes, please feel free to submit a Support ticket.

The_Chieftain: Lads, a couple of observations.    Firstly, forget about the missile argument. Not only the first pilot batch came without the ATGMs, but also a significant number, about 150-250 (I need to check Hunnicutt) of the production run were built without ATGM capability. Presumably they were intended straight for Vietnam. I have no idea why the pilot was selected as opposed to the production variant.   Secondly, the issue with the pilot model is that though it looks to be rather straight-edged, in fact that's just the outer casing, and the main armor is, I think, supposed to be more slanted. Quite how much the internal armor modules are going to end up angled in the in-game model remains to be seen, but it's looking pretty 'boxy' right now, as compared to the production versions of the armor. Well, I guess unless someone can prove the real hull shape of a pilot, nobody can prove Minsk wrong...

JayStark02: Closing thread. Please submit a ticket when reporting players that violates our EULA.  

The_Chieftain:   Hmm. We are on other sides of that great debate, then.   Did he get the reference?

The_Chieftain:   I've proposed a format for "historical battles" which, believe it or not, seems likely to get implemented in the next e-Sports season. I have high hopes for it as a concept, and hope to see it expand if it's successful.

The_Chieftain: Note also in the link, it observes that the new overmatch mechanics are coming back. Hopefully, this time, they're a little more clear about how they work, at least, in general.

The_Chieftain: It's an early pilot, and I'm not happy at either the choice of vehicle nor how it was modelled (collision model). However, by the time I got properly involved, I was basically told "Oh well, it's already done, can't do much to change it now"

The_Chieftain: Came third in the company bowling contest, with a 167. The two higher scores were 176, one of the IT guys and the General Manager.  I balled up by having my turkey in the last frame.

Volier_Zcit: Thread closed. Full of unnecessary discussion.

Volier_Zcit: Thread closed. You guys will just continue to call each other out. Let's stop this before it gets out of hand.

Volier_Zcit: You guys are just insulting each other and discussing political issues which has nothing to do with the topic. Thread closed.

The_Chieftain: Is Koi dance in any way related to the Fish Slapping Dance?  

GhostPrime: Run the game launcher, make sure you have the game updated to 9.17. If that folder is missing you can create the folder with " 0.9.17.0" as the name of the folder in the "res_mods" folder. You need these folders for the game to open. If that doesn't work, please submit a ticket to support. 

dance210:   Hi!   The box isn't actually stored anywhere. After exiting that screen, the boxes are automatically opened for you. Your new decorations will be waiting for you, with a ribbon on the left corner to let you know which ones are new.

dance210:   Hi Helios62000!   I will try to answer your questions as best I can   1. Yes, you can replace the decorations already on the tree/tank. You can either click the "x" on the decoration or simply move the new decoration over the old. The new one should replace it, as long as the box has a green highlight.   2. For Mission 1, you can earn it in any tank in your garage, once each day. So if you have 30 tanks, you can potentially earn that mission 30 times today and 30 times tomorrow.   3. I'm not sure if there is a maximum number. You can combine 5 decorations from the same level (e.g. five Tier 1 decorations), to create one decoration that is a higher level. That could be one way to use the extra decorations

dance210: Hi guys!   Just a quick note. With the Round 9 battles popping at the incorrect time, payouts will be adjusted manually to account for the missed battle. Apologies guys 

dance210:   Hi Crimson!   If you decide to not open the box, it will open off screen. The decorations will be waiting for you the next time you click on the tree or Snowitzer. From what I can tell, the new decorations should have a ribbon across the top left corner to help you find them

The_Chieftain:   I have already commented on his video.

Volier_Zcit: I believe the OP's question has been answered. Thread closed

Volier_Zcit: Thread closed. Nonconstructive.

Saffr0n:  

Saffr0n:   With your curved monitor, I would use borderless windowed mode to achieve the fullscreen look, but without the hassle of messing with resolution settings (both in-game, system settings, or NVIDIA control panel)

Saffr0n: what if I told you that it's the same support group?
