TeriyakiTanker: Ohhh I don't know you ingrate maybe because you listed it right in the middle of all the other technical things he did...… I mean really?

1984BigBrother: Pro tip - this link has both of the casters and all of the NA streamers: http://multitwitch.tv/jerm_na/dakillzor/chase591__trash/haglar/selawot/smylee_rage This is how I usually watch and just go back and forth muting streams. Also, all of the players get "credit" for you watching.

1984BigBrother: Tankers, Match will start  August 3 at 11:00 PT | 13:00 CT | 14:00 ET. More information and voting codes here:https://worldoftanks.com/en/news/tournaments/va-vs-eu-0819/ The EU clan guy (thePhilX) and I both made predictions: 1984BigBrother - MAHOU wins in 10 thePhilX - DE-VI wins in 8 Either way, we hope for a good match! General discussion and predictions below! GL HF Big

1984BigBrother: Tankers, We have our second Fire Trail Showmatch starting today EU (DE-VI) vs NA (MAHOU) Battles start today (August 3rd) at 1 pm CT. Dakillzor and Jerm will be casting, you can check them out here: http://multitwitch.tv/jerm_na/dakillzor I am also opening up this post so MAHOU players can tell you if they will be streaming via replying to this post (other post will be removed). GL HF, Big

TeriyakiTanker: You should be contacting ASUS customer support not WG.  Why would you even think their customer service people can help you?  Chances are they aren’t even trained for tech support.  You will also have much better luck on a dedicated tech support forum like Tom’s Hardware.  Go their and post your complete specs and you will find a ton of helpful people.  It’s most likely some kind of hardware related issue.

Einzelganger7: Fine as well with me, though I saw something really strange today on my playing session (a bit off topic but I wanted to say it, heh). I got the twitch pack today and tested the rental Kanonenjagdpanzer 105, within 21 matches with it I was top tier on all but three matches, so we could say I saw an abnormality in the matchmaking? It's not like I complain, though, lol

TeriyakiTanker:
Good luck, I three marked mine in 67.  Probably the most OP tank in the game tier for tier.

Felipe6666Original:  Sí, lo notifiqué por el servidor de Discord. Fue para todos aquellos que fueron afectados por los problemas en el servidor (no haber podido jugar alguna batalla del torneo, estar a la mitad de una batalla o similar). Si no estaban jugando, no pudieron ingresar o estaban jugando normalmente, no se los contempló para una compensación. Si era su caso y deberían haber recibido una, envían ticket a Soporte. ¡Saludos!

Jambijon:  I've been trying to get codes (if any) for future missions and then have a pinned thread will all of them and when they are available to redeem.  I get the grief, I can't stand the codes and we're working on it.  

DomoSapien: Hey, tankers! You’ve heard about Tank Festival (if not, check out your hangar). However, there’s still room for other news in World of Tanks. In particular, the Turtle Mk. I, a British Tier VIII TD, will be supertested in no time.It’s born into the British assault tank family headed by the TD FV217 Badger, taking after the latter in both appearance and specs. The first thing you want to know about the “testee” is that its survivability reaches 1400 HP which is quite impressive for the tier. The armor is the second thing you will definitely admire: it’s 228 mm at the front. As the saying goes (and life shows), everything has its price. In this case, the price is low mobility (which is quite common for the family). With 20 km/h as its max speed, you will hardly be able to dash about the map. The best tactic is to choose the direction for attack from the get-go and stick to it to the end of the battle. That said, the Turtle Mk. I has an ace up its sleeve: its gun. Sporting 3000 DPM (one of the highest rates in the game), it reloads in 6.6 s with the alpha reaching 330 points. The dispersion and aiming time are no less decent being 0.34 at 100 m and 2.2 s, respectively. Let’s see how the vehicle disposes with the enemy armor: penetration with a standard AP shell is 217 mm and a special APCR round will make a dent in the opposing vehicle 245 mm deep. One more special thing about this TD: the depression angle of -10 degrees and the traverse limits of 20 degrees both to the left and to the right (which, as you know, is crucial for a tank destroyer).  Let’s sum up: though the Turtle Mk. I can’t boast a speedy pace, it causes damage at a rate that can impress! Its survivability and firepower combined allow you to destroy the enemy before it destroys you! If protected by heavy tanks from a rear attack, the Turtle Mk. I can succeed both in keeping the enemy at bay and breaking its defense.   

Jambijon: Happy Birthday Day!

Felipe6666Original: Desafortunadamente, MATERIZ_warrior queda descalificado por no corregir su enlace, aunque estoy dispuesto a darle un premio por participación en caso de que lo corrija antes de que anunciamos a los ganadores. Por otro lado, acabo de decidir que los que ganen se llevarán dos banderas de la nación correspondiente para decorar su nuevo vehículo en caso de que hayan elegido uno de los países descriptos. ¡Saludos!

Felipe6666Original: ¡Saludos, Comandantes! ¡Bienvenidos a nuestra décima edición de nuestro concurso artístico mensual! Vamos a continuar con los concursos temáticos, pero esta vez aprovecharemos dos cosas: el Festival de Blindados (que durará dos meses, por eso esta es la primera parte) y las celebraciones por la independencias de Bolivia (6 de agosto), Ecuador (10 de agosto) y Uruguay (25 de agosto). Las categorías serán las mismas de siempre, solo que lo que creen deberá estar relacionado con el espíritu festivo por nuestro cumpleaños noveno aniversario. Adicionalmente, puede estar relacionado también con la independencia de alguno de estos países o con el sentimiento de independencia en general, pero tienen que vincularlo con el Festival de Blindados o alguno de sus eventos al mismo tiempo. EjemplosObra relacionada al Festival de Blindados: tanques disfrutando de la Feria del Festival, tanques Chaffee corriendo carreras, tanques celebrando con fuegos artificiales, un tanque decorado para la ocasión, tanques avanzando en Línea del Frente con fuegos fuegos artificiales y confeti a su alrededor, etc. Obra relacionada al Festival de Blindados + Independencia: tanques decorados con símbolos patrios de alguna de las naciones descriptas paseando por una Feria del Festival modificada para la ocasión independentista, tanques vestidos para su día rodeados de fuegos artificiales de los colores de su nación, etc. Estas son las categorías en las que pueden participar: Composición: Desde ediciones fotográficas y collages hasta invenciones digitales (2D o 3D) y creaciones sobre superficies de dibujo. Deben respetar dos cosas: que el protagonista de lo que hagan sea un blindado de World of Tanks (o que al menos se asemeje o esté inspirado en uno) y que su diseño o su entorno tengan relación con el Festival de Blindados (y, adicionalmente y optativamente, con la independencia de alguno de los países mencionados). También asegúrense de que su nick y la fecha figuren en alguna parte. Una vez hecho, publiquen su creación en los comentarios de este hilo. Modelismo: Hagan un blindado de World of Tanks (de nuevo, o que al menos se asemeje o esté inspirado en uno) con el material que quieran: papel, cartón, metal, etc. Recuerden que su diseño o su entorno debe relacionarse con el Festival de Blindados (y, adicionalmente y optativamente, con la independencia de alguno de los países mencionados). Una vez hecho, sáquenle una foto y publíquenla en los comentarios de este hilo. Como en la categoría anterior, su nick y fecha deben figurar en la foto, así que asegúrense de incluirlos en alguna parte. Varieté: Todo lo que no cuadre con las cateogrías anteriores participará automáticamente de esta cateogría. El nick y la fecha son obligatorios para lo que sea que hagan: videos, galletas, mods, etc. No importa lo que creen en tanto se relacione al Festival de Blindados (y, adicionalmente y optativamente, con la independencia de alguno de los países mencionados), ¡usen su imaginación! La regla de "¡Dedícale más de 5 minutos!" se mantiene, lo que implica que se tomará en cuenta la dedicación que pongan en sus creaciones. No tiene que ver con los tiempos o su talento porque se entiende que hay personas más habilidosas que otras o más veloces, sino con que se note que dedicaron más que tres segundos en Paint a dibujar dos palitos. También queda firme la introducción de la regla "¡Necesitas el 50%!" que implica que las participaciones únicas (es decir, aquellas creaciones que sean las únicas por cateogoría por no haber más participantes) deberán recibir al menos el 50% de los votos totales del jurado para ganar. ¿Y qué ganan por participar? ¡Paquetes con premios misteriosos! Estos paquetes incluyen potenciadores, Cuenta Premium de WoT y vehículos premium. ¡Pero eso no es todo! Para darle un toque especial, su vehículo vendrá con uno de los camuflajes/estilos especiales que estarán disponibles durante el Festival de Blindados. Adicionalmente, si eligen algún tema independentista, también incluirá banderas de su patria para que decoren a su nuevo miembro del arsenal. ¿Y cómo se eligen a los ganadores? Los Contribuidores de la Comunidad, los Voluntarios de la Comunidad y yo formaremos un jurado interno que eligirá a dos ganadores por categoría (sí, seis ganadores en total). ¿Y cuánto tiempo tienen? ¡Tienen tiempo hasta el 31 de agosto! Anunciaremos a los ganadores en la semana del 1 al 8 de septiembre. FAQ¿Puedo participar en todas las categorías?  No, solo pueden participar de una. ¿Puedo participar con más de una creación en la misma cateogría? No, solo se admite una participación por jugador. ¿Obtengo algo por participar o solo el ganador se lleva algo? Todos obtienen un premio por participar en tanto se demuestre dedicación en su creación, pero los ganadores se llevan el premio más grande. ¿Puedo poner a mi vehículo en algún contexto? ¡Seguro! De hecho, alentamos a que lo hagan para rendir homenaje a la independencia de alguno de los países nombrados o al espíritu independentista en sí. ¿Qué materiales pueden usarse para las composiciones? Lápices, acuarelas, témperas, oleos, etc. pueden usarse para dibujar sobre papel, lienzo o lo que quieran; y el programa digital que se les ocurra para hacer sus creaciones digitales (2D o 3D) o composiciones fotográficas. ¿Se pueden hacer modelos de blindados con ladrillos para armar? No, no se puede. Ese tipo de cosas ya vienen con instrucciones (también pueden encontrarse tutoriales) en el que el márgen de error es nulo. Si lo hacen, su creación será tenida en cuenta para la cateogría de Composición, no para la de Modelismo. ¿Entonces no se pueden usar modelos para cortar en papel/cartón? ¡Eso sí se puede! Si bien hay instrucciones, entra en juego la habilidad de armado, de pintar/colorear, etc. Lo mismo aplica para el plastimodelismo. ¡No hay excusas! ¡Elijan una categoría y pongan manos a la obra! ¡Mucha suerte!

Felipe6666Original:  ¿Te refieres al Festival de Tanques? Bueno, no es nada que podamos revelar para ahora, pero no será en el sentido tradicional de, por ejemplo, los "En Camino", será algo más exclusivo y de no muy fácil acceso. ¡Saludos!

DomoSapien: Well, respectfully, the way you get the bull to follow is by using the tools at your disposal. And I understand the perspective of 'you're offering stuff that is gated behind hoops' - but consider the following: this stuff wouldn't be offered in the first place if the hoops didn't exist. 

Are the missions a means to an end? Sure. We are pushing the buttons we have in front of us to influence certain types of behavior.  Here's the way I see it. I am not a developer. I don't have the ability to change certain aspects of the game that I take issue with, or improve the new player onboarding experience, tutorials, bootcamp etc. I do have all these tools in the form of different community activities I can try running outside of the game, to influence player behavior in the game itself. 
Like, maybe I can't improve the tutorial and make it better at teaching new players our core mechanics, but maybe I can compile a series of tutorial videos from community contributors and create special personal missions that get sent to players weekly and tie in to the mechanic that is being presented in each video. Or take the Scavenger Hunt for example. It started as "how do we motivate players to visit our social channels" then evolved into "how do we get our community contributors involved and drive traffic to their channels". With that came the additional challenge of 'how do we make it so that people actually visit their channels and check out their content instead of simply waiting til the end of the month and getting their rewards from someone who took the time to copy+paste. Yes, it still happens with Scavenger Hunt codes, but it requires participants to be engaged with the event and follow along daily if they want all the rewards. Engagement with the community outside of the game tends to translate to engagement with the community inside the game. There are only so many avenues I can provide you with to make participating in the Scavenger Hunt as effortless as possible, it's up to you whether or not you choose to use them. If you don't like Discord, you don't have to use it. Follow us on Twitch, Facebook, or Youtube so you get notifications when we go live. Or just anticipate that there will be a code given out on Tuesday or Thursday every week.  My point is that the stream chain missions are a way to reward our regulars for being regulars, and offer an incentive for others so maybe they become regulars. There really is no underhanded motivation here, we're not trying to sell you anything, we just want you to come check out our stream. (inb4 well maybe if you were good streamers then people would watch your stream) Who knows, maybe you'll like what you see and stick around for the whole thing? I'm not going to sit here and defend the practice of using redemption codes for missions as a whole because I personally don't like it, but I have to operate under the assumption that there is a method to the madness and it actually serves some type of purpose (other than frustrating our forumgoers). When a code gets posted late, it's not because of incompetence or laziness as some have pointed out. Our content guys are up and in the office by like 6:30 to 7:00 AM like clockwork, every morning. They get posted late because the code isn't working and they don't want to frustrate players by posting a nonfunctional code. If it's late, it's probably because we're sounding the alarms, lighting signal fires, and sending smoke signals to get them fixed ASAP. Sure you could definitely call that incompetence but I don't think the incompetence rests solely with our content team, as the bonus code process is a global one. 

DomoSapien:  Are you the guy who won the Bretagne Panther from Trobs? I think I forgot to follow up on that but consider that CC's as well as the person who works with them (me) are human beings and we are not infallible. CC's are supposed to run giveaways during the sale period of the vehicle, but Trobs got confused because of the wonky release cycle the money folks cooked up for the Bretagne Panther and T78. It genuinely was a mixup. EU Ran their sale at the end of June, we had our sale towards the end of July, it caused some confusion on all parts. I legitimately wasn't able to credit you the tank before the sale period.
I do apologize for the additional delay in getting back to you, though. As I mentioned in my recent post on the Scavenger Hunt, I have been getting tons of PM's on Discord and have a few projects that have been demanding a bit too much of my attention and I haven't been able to dedicate enough attention to the forums. We're really slammed with all the stuff we've got going on + prepping for D-Day Ohio so things have been a bit hectic on the Community team. I see you sent me a PM a little over a week ago, will get back to you and follow up on that today.

Jambijon: Attention Tankers! If you haven't heard yet, the first "Wheelie Boy" has made its return and is now available in the Premium Shop!   For more details and bundle offers, click the tank or the link below:  Panhard EBR 75 Offers     GLHF! 

Felipe6666Original: ¡Saludos, Comandantes! Seguramente ya oyeron suficiente sobre el Festival de Blindados (y si no lo hicieron, lean las noticias en nuestro portal). Sin embargo, hay lugar para otras noticias también. Por ejemplo, el comienzo de las pruebas internas para el Turtle Mk. I, un cazatanques británico de nivel VIII. Imágenes  Pertenece a la familia de cazatanques británicos, liderada por el FV217 Badger, del cual toma tanto su apariencia como algunas especificaciones. Lo primero que deben saber de este vehículo es que su supervivencia alcanza los 1400 PV, algo bastante impresionante para su nivel. El blindaje es la segunda cosa para admirar: 228 mm en el frente.
Como dice el dicho (y como la vida lo demuestra), todo tiene un precio. En este caso, es su movilidad (un rasgo común en toda la familia). Su velocidad máxima de 20 km/h no te permitirá correr por el mapa. La mejor táctica es elegir una dirección de ataque desde el comienzo y apegarse al plan hasta el final de la batalla.
Con ese detalle en claro, el Turtle Mk. I tiene un as bajo la manga: su cañón. Puede alcanzar un DPM de 3000 (uno de los más altos del juego), compuesto por una recarga de 6,6 segundos y un daño alfa de 330 puntos. Su dispersión y tiempo de apuntamiento no se quedan atrás tampoco, con 0,34 a 100 metros y 2,2 segundos respectivamente. Ahora veamos cómo se enfrenta al blindaje de los enemigos: la penetración con proyectiles AP es de 217 mm, mientras que la penetración con APCR es de 245 mm. Otro detalle importante para mencionar es que el ángulo de depresión del cañón alcanza los -10 grados, y puede desplazarse 20 grados hacia cada lado (algo muy importante para cualquier cazatanques).
En resumen, a pesar de que el Turtle Mk. I no puede alcanzar un ritmo veloz, ¡puede causar un daño impresionante! ¡Su supervivencia y poder de fuego combinados permiten destruir al enemigo antes de que te destruya! Si lo escoltan tanques pesados, el Turtle Mk. I puede servir tanto para mantener al enemigo a raya como para romper sus defensas.
Como siempre, recuerden que todos los valores están sujetos a cambios de acuerdo a los resultados de las pruebas.
¡Mucha suerte en el campo de batalla!

Jambijon: Attention Everyone! The hero tank from the Battle of Kursk event has finally made it to the Premium Shop.  More of a collectors tank but still a fun tank to take out every now and then. It's only available for 72 hours and the bundle includes exclusive "Hero of the Battle of Kursk" style.   Click the tank or the link below for more information! T-34 Shielded: The Hero of Kursk Returns! GLHF!

MA77: Saudações, tanqueiros! Você já ouviu falar do Tank Festival? Não? Confira o nosso Portal o quanto antes! Mesmo com esse grande evento começando, ainda há espaço para outras notícias do World of Tanks. Em particular, o Turtle Mk. I, um caça-tanques britânico de Nível VIII que irá ser testado no Superteste. 
Nasceu da família britânica de caça-tanques de assalto liderada pelo FV217 Badger, tendo como semelhanças sua aparência e especificações. A primeira coisa que você deve saber sobre este veículo é que sua capacidade de sobrevivência atinge 1400 HP, o que é bastante impressionante para o nível. A blindagem é a segunda coisa que você definitivamente vai admirar: são 228 milímetros na frente.
Como diz o ditado, tudo tem seu preço. Neste caso, o preço é de baixa mobilidade (o que é bastante comum para esta família). Com 20 km/h de velocidade máxima, você dificilmente será capaz de ficar se locomovendo pelo mapa. A melhor tática é escolher sua direção de ataque desde o começo e cumpri-lo até o final da batalha.
Dito isto, o Turtle Mk. I tem um ás na manga: seu canhão. Com 3000 de DPM (uma das maiores taxas do jogo), recarrega em 6.6s com um dano alfa de 330 pontos. A dispersão e o tempo de mira não são menos decentes, sendo 0.34 a 100m e 1.7s, respectivamente. A penetração com AP padrão é de 217mm e 245mm com APCR. Mais uma coisa especial sobre este caça-tamques: o ângulo de depressão é de -10 graus e os limites transversais são de 20 graus tanto para a esquerda quanto para a direita (que, como você sabe, é crucial para um caça-tanques).  Mais Imagens
Vamos resumir: embora o Turtle Mk. I não possa se gabar de ter um ritmo veloz, ele causa danos em um ritmo que pode impressionar! Sua capacidade de sobrevivência e poder de fogo combinados permitem que você destrua o inimigo antes que ele destrua você! Se protegido por tanques pesados ​​de um ataque na retaguarda, o Turtle Mk. I pode ter sucesso em manter o inimigo em sua linha e quebrar sua defesa.

TeriyakiTanker: I bid 14,001 bonds, did not get a tank.

KRZYBooP: Howdy Boom Jockeys! Yes some of the dates are wrong. I caught it late, but the dates are  Tomorrow 8/2Saturday 8/3Sunday 8/4 The accounts were set to be unbanned tonight and should be good to login too.  There is enough free xp to unlock the newer tanks. Don't waste free xp on training new crew members to all the skillsRetrain a crew from one of the 400 other tanks that you don't wanna play.  Thank  you everyone who signed up and hope you catch our streams so can get the drop on the next Sheriff Event Good luck and have fun!

DomoSapien:
500  is ~160% of our average CCU for our community streams. You're supposed to get the code for watching the stream, not for copy+pasting it when it gets reposted. The rewards for completing the missions are intentionally modest, so that nobody is missing out on anything that's particularly rare/valuable/exclusive if they aren't able to watch the stream or input the code in time.

Furthermore, 500 is not set in stone and it's very likely that we will make adjustments to the quantity or format once we get a better idea of initial participation.

DomoSapien:   Oh stop it, you.

Full disclosure I actually feel like I've been neglecting you guys on the forums a bit. I'm probably the most active staffer in the WOTNA Discord and as a result I get tons of pings and PM's daily. I feel like I haven't been giving the forums enough attention and there are quite a few PM's in my forum inbox that have been backlogged for quite a bit now. 

Going to try and put in some overtime this week and get back to everyone who's still waiting on a reply. Your patience in the meantime is greatly appreciated.

DomoSapien: I posted at the top of this page with details about that, and i've gone ahead and included a quote below just in case. TLDR the consumables mission wasn't affected by the tokens compensation for some reason so we're gonna fix it via a data pull next week and manually payout the food consumables to all qualifying players who didn't receive them.

DomoSapien:  

DomoSapien:

Einzelganger7: No idea which vehicles will be used but maybe they already showed which ones in the article itself? On it I can see a VK Leopard, a Chaffee, and a soviet light tank so I am guessing those would be the options?
     

DomoSapien: The World of Tanks NA community stream runs 16:00 CT - 18:00 CT every Tuesday and Thursday. This is the stream that the article is referring to.

You can watch our Community stream on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/worldoftanksnaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/WorldOfTanks.NAOr Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/worldoftanksna We've run a bunch of surveys with players about their habits for consuming stream and youtube content, the vast majority of wot players that consume streaming content for wot do so while running the game on their other monitor, or have streams running on their phone while they play. You can play the game and watch the stream at the same time. The rewards for streaming missions are generally quite modest. If you don't want to participate in Stream Missions but you still want boosters, just wait until September and follow one of the numerous Scavenger Hunt threads that gets posted to the forums, reddit, discord, etc. You don't even have to watch the CC's who participate in Scavenger Hunt if you don't want to, because you can just grab the codes when they get reposted.

I understand you feel like you're being left out because the scheduling doesn't work out in your favor, but is it really that underhanded for us to try and motivate more people to watch our streams while playing the game? Like, if it wasn't limited to a small number of redemptions (considering our average of about 300 CCU across all three of our streaming platforms) then it would simply get reposted, which doesn't really fulfill the purpose of the project. The objective for the stream missions is slightly different than the objective for the Scavenger Hunt, so the event is designed differently. 

DomoSapien: Hey Tankers, Got some quick, but kinda cool news to share with you. We've just added some additional functionality to our Customer Support portal which should make the vehicle recovery process even easier. 
For those of you who are unaware, 'vehicle recovery' or 'vehicle restoration' essentially means 'buying back a Premium tank you sold in the past'. There is a vehicle recovery tool in-game, however it has some limitations. For example, if you sold your vehicle before the in-game vehicle recovery tool was implemented, that vehicle will not be available in your list of tanks eligible for restoration. Using the new automated functionality for the Customer Support Portal, you can submit a ticket to re-purchase your previously-sold Premium Vehicle for the Sale Cost (50% of original purchase price in Credits) + 10%. It will automatically be restored within approximately an hour (granted, the tooltip that comes up before you submit your ticket states that it could take up to 24 hours, so I'm assuming it will vary based on volume of tickets in queue), provided you have the Credits and Garage Slot available. Players that have used it so far seem to be enjoying it, as the tickets processed by the recovery tool are getting great scores in terms of customer satisfaction metrics. To recover a vehicle:Go to https://na.wargaming.net/support/en/products/wot/help/ Select the In-Game Goods category Select the Premium Vehicle Restoration category Fill out the corresponding form Wait. (You might be waiting up to 24 hours so go play some tanks or cook a steak or something.) Take your familiar old friend out for a spin and shake off those cobwebs!  

Jambijon:  Unfortunately, there is only information on the Primary conditions at the moment.  If it wasn't included, it probably won't change but I can't say that as a guarantee. 

Jambijon: If you zoom in on the inside of the Skoprion G, you'll see a little picture that's hanging up on the inside of the gun shield.  *edit - Ah, g321 beat me to it

Jambijon: Attention Tankers! Update 1.6 is quite a big update considering that changes being made.  Some of the previous changes warranted updates/balance to the current missions. Since there is quite a lot changing, we'll leave all the glorious details to our portal article.  If you haven't checked it out I've linked it below along with the other 1.6 articles. Changes to Personal Missions New Frontline Personal Reserves Disabling Team Damage in Random Battles Join the Common Test! GLHF!

DomoSapien: So I've been digging through a bunch of account logs with CS this week, (shoutout to the players on discord who volunteered to let me poke around in their garages and try to figure things out) 

There was an issue with the "Redeem CC Codes" mission not being affected by the +3 tokens compensation. So this means that all compensated players have been able to complete "Scavenger Hunt" 3 additional times, but this number isn't being counted towards specifically the "Redeem CC Codes" mission. However the tokens compensation WAS counted towards their totals for the tiered rewards (specifically, the important ones being the 10K and 30K XP rewards.)

Ultimately, the only mission that appears to have been affected is the "Redeem CC Codes" mission, which awards the Food Consumables for collecting 31. It's a bit of a bummer because some players who would have qualified for these food consumables if the 3 extra tokens had brought them up to 31 won't end up receiving the food consumables from the mission itself. However, this should be an easy fix for us after the fact. The important thing is that the 10K and 30K missions are in fact counting the +3 tokens that you all received last week, as compensating you with XP would be a substantially more complicated process than compensating you with food consumables.

All of this said, all players that would have qualified for this mission (collected 28 or more 'secret sign' tokens for the 'redeem cc codes' mission), but didn't receive the rewards due to the +3 not being reflected, will be compensated with the food consumables they should have received, once the event is over.

If there is any discrepancy with your actual tiered reward missions and you feel that you didn't receive the tokens at all, please submit a ticket to customer support before 00:00 CDT on August 1st (tomorrow.) When dealing with customer support, it's important to contact them before the end time for a sale period, event window, etc. They generally have more wiggle room to accommodate you if you don't wait until after something is over to ask them for help.

Einzelganger7: Well, at least soviets finally won something related to the space projects, even if it was just a simple (and biased) event.

The_Chieftain: Do both. If you're a tank on your own, you're probably doing something wrong to begin with. You're supposed to be engaging as a platoon, or at the very least, a section. That means that you can start on both ends, and work inwards.  Or, if you're a platoon, two tanks start on the ends, two tanks start in the middle, and they work towards each other.
