churchill50:  From what I've heard, it will go out to each person all at once.However, since the decorider only has 2 digits for anti-duplicator charges, once it hits 99 it shows 00 instead of 100. So you probably have them all and it's just showing 50 instead of 150.It should just be an error in the display, and not in how the data is stored, so you should still have and be able to use them all.

churchill50:  Yeah, I feel you.I haven't even received the anti-duplicators yet, much less the shards. Lets hope we get them both by the end of the day!

churchill50:  This thread:http://forum.worldof...st__260#topmost The latest update was in this post:http://forum.worldof...4#entry12963964 And this Reddit thread:https://www.reddit.c..._only/?sort=new Sometimes the Reddit thread is updated first, sometimes the forum thread is.

churchill50:  They corrected the article at 12:00PM Central time, and gave a 2 hour cutoff. That would give 2:00PM Central time, or 8:00PM UTC (if I'm doing the conversion correctly). Since there appears to be some confusion about time in this thread, here's my source:https://www.reddit.c..._only/?sort=new To quote from one of TragicLoss' updates in that thread: "Edit: NA article was corrected at Noon (12PM) Central time on Dec 9th. Compensation is for up to 2 hours after this time."

churchill50:  Wait, what? None of the missions so far have been hard. In fact, they've all been hilariously easy. Today's mission to do 3k spotting is the most difficult one yet I believe, and it's not even that hard.Most of them you can complete over any number of battles.And remember, you have between now and January 10th to complete them. Which ones have been hard in your opinion?

churchill50:  Most likely, they are storing the correct number of anti-duplicators, but since the decorider only shows 2 digits, it's only showing 04 for you when you really have 304.I'd try using 5 anti-duplicators. It should drop down to 00 then go to 99.

TragicLoss: Hey all! We saw the influx of tickets and we're looking into what happened with the shards. I believe we've identified the issue already at this time.
Thanks to everyone who submitted tickets!

churchill50: +1 OP! Great tip. Here's a thread with the best tanks to use those discounts on at each tier to make the most profit:http://forum.worldof...nts-for-profit/

1LT_Dwayne: How can you profit from this? That would cost a lot.

Draschel: Skill4ltuYou looking for KV Shielded, M4-85?Matilda Lv? He is your guy. 

Draschel: and i am sure you wouldn't. An apology with sorry, he will be delighted, and you both go about your merry ways. But continue rear ending his tank, sure you deserve to be banned. 

Draschel: Remember when friendly fire was still a thing? And in the first seasons of Ranked Battle, teams would TK arty at the start of the battle?Well, WGs near immediate response, was no-tolerance. It was not long at all, immediate suspensions were given for start continuing the practice.In fact, combined with FL around the corner introducing no team damage, WG finally brought in random battle no team damage too. But one does not need to cause damage, to destroy and infuriate an ally. Pushing, track grinding, blocking, 'gun-blocking'  you name it.WG needs to crack down on such griefing, whether meditated, indiscriminate, or even unplanned but continued.  It doesn't need to be bans, unless over time its again and again the same user is getting them. WG can easily track these occurrences. An  1 hr suspension will get people re-thinking what they are doing, isn't going unnoticed. Getting repeated 2, 3, 6, 12, 24 hr suspensions will not only get them re-thinking, but wastes their premium time and puts them on a wanted list for repeat violations. If people don't want to be courteous, and treat others how'd they'd like to be treated themselves, they can easily by forced into by WG in very fair judgement. Don't touch allied tanks. And I am not talking about minor bumping and scraping rushing for karelia or mines hill. I am talking about parking behind people and rubbing into them. Pushing them off terrain or into ponds. Trapping allied casemate TDs by grinding. Heavy tanks like KV5 pushing low tiers as tank shields.  You wouldn't want this done to you, right? So don't do it to others 

Draschel: NA Server::  ''Hey, can M6A2E1 be treated like KV-4 Kreslavsky too? Can it receive the following improvements all in one patch?''-20mm front turret armor-200 HP-1.5 HP/T-10km/hr-.07./.07 movement dispersion  Some not so funny guy in Minsk::  ''Nyet, comrade. ha ha ha. You Americans''                     

Draschel: Camo, off roading, repairs preventative maint. all work for what you want. >Camo maybe dumb for a vehicle so easily spotted by tanks on earth even if you were on the moon. But it can help certainly in forests, which rely more on shrubbery camo value than tank camo. For example, a tank in plain sight or driving around needs camo, like bourratt / EBR75 / LT432. No amount of camo that means will help your boomstick. But in forests like malinov, prokh, muro, mountain pass spawns - you can hide a Type 5 even>off roading and repairs can help in passive ways>I assume you are running auto extinguisher if not rations. Preventative maintenance can passively, conveniently stack I guess. Especially considering 20% engine burn chance   

Draschel:  You don't need to like tier 1,2,3,4,5 club stars. I don't either, whomever said you should? The fact is, even if I posted with my main account, you wouldn't care and would post some other type of excuse. It happens all the time. I see posters, much like you snapping back in the most insensible ways at people with 10,000 PR, nevermind 7,8,9. People with contributing statistics in tier 6, matching what you do in tier 10. So lets not go down that lane, shall we?But I want to know why, the physics behind it, someone (and I mean anyone not just me) can hear of SA server launching live bots in low tiers, and within a year anyone starting a new account can play 2k battles which is 5-6 games a day, and get to 7k PR tiers 1-5. And this isn't me, that is what everyone is capable of. And you seem to have freakish difficulty maintaining 5k PR with a whopping 25k battles. This isn't judgement, it is an assessment. I am not calling you, as a person - bad. I don't know you, that is not for me to say. I am saying you perform badly and in this virtual world, are detrimentally bad to the teams you appear in. The two takes concerning character are quite different, please distinguish between the two. Much the same, you can call me a jerk. I would freely admit, I am a jerk. But I am not an idiotic imbecile, that doesn't understand things in WoT. Again, the two are quite different.  Just because you do not think I am learner material, informative, or helpful doesn't mean I am not. If I was not, lets give you the benefit of the doubt - I'd have a gleaming big 0 beside my avatar, because people wouldn't be finding me informative or helpful. But that isn't the case, now is it.  

Draschel:  Thats reasonable enough I guess, except that-Why ask for tertiary driver skill if its so meaningful a query?Whereas the gameplay is instead viewed rather casual?  

Draschel: Nevermind the choice of FV4005....but why are you using 10 anyway, for profit? 

Draschel:  How is it acceptable at all to say:: 

Draschel:  That is toxic nonsense. Needless toxic nonsense. Do not be dumb, for I know you are not dumb. Damage is contribution in itself. You know it, I know it. 3 marks also include assistance earned. You know it, I know it. People who 3 mark don't sit in corners sniping with heavy tanks. You know it, I know it. Please read what you respond to.        

KRZYBooP:  They should be in accounts by the EOD today 16Dec.*
*   http://forum.worldof...post&p=12963179 I don't have any information on the Prime Gaming stuff other than we are working on it, and to stay tuned.   

KRZYBooP: Howdy Boom Jockeys! The Trading Post map is coming to the Supertest: This is an early prototype and is currently intended for solving technical problems. 
General
Map size: 1000x1000 meters.
Game mode: Standard Battle.
1. The lane located in the mountain ridge with safe positions for shoot-outs between heavy tanks. 
The central lane is a plain featuring irregular terrain. This area is well suited for rapid vehicles where they can use the bushes and terrain to spot enemy maneuvers while remaining undetected. 
3. The beach area allows medium tanks to start clashes from a distance and then move along the ocean for close-quarters engagements.
4. The small town provides a link between the center lane and the beach.
5. Hills that allow repelling enemy breakthroughs toward the bases and control of the central lane. 
They allow firing along the adjacent directions, thus providing additional fire support to allied medium and heavy tanks.

TragicLoss: I've been told the receiver will get the compensation.

churchill50: The M60 is a tier 10 medium tank, so of course it's better than a tier 8. The Renegade is a premium tank, while the M60 is a reward tank. That means they both can use crews from other tanks of the same nation/type without penalty, but the Renegade will make more credits. The M60 has normal tier 10 credit economy, meaning it will lose credits most of the time. So... if you want an okay tier 10 medium tank, get the M60.If you want one of the strongest tier 8 premium tanks, get the Renegade.

Einzelganger7: You should not break them before placing them on their respective slot at least once, it might be tedious but each decoration gives an extra point if you do that and regardles if it is duplicate or not.

Einzelganger7: I was expecting some camo that could be used for German tanks as well like the rewards from past years but this time it is one sided, oh well...

TragicLoss: Tankers!
Thanks for your patience as we worked through some technical issues. The compensation is currently being delivered to accounts, and all affected players who qualify for compensation should receive their shards and anti-duplicators by the end of the day today.

KRZYBooP: Howdy Boom Jockeys! From 16Dec until 27Dec go play out some missions themed around the Battle of the Bulge.  Earn inscriptions, in-game goods, camos, and more by playing out the missions during this timeline. More information on this can be found HERE.

TeriyakiTanker: Maybe that is what is happening and maybe that isn't what is happening, considering WG couldnt even figure out how to give you them all at once I wouldn't be so sure about that.

TeriyakiTanker: Same here.

Einzelganger7: It is easy: Press 2 key, lock enemy with auto aim, profit.

Draschel: Do you run rations?Why not firefighting? 

Draschel: A priest, to pray for it. What skills you already have? 

Draschel:  I really don't care. This is the internet. A insults B. What I dislike is the ubiquitous, silly, ingenuine, ignorant bashing of good players spending time to 3-mark And people, incapable of doing so themselves, scoffing at it for dumb, extremely rare outlier situations. 

Draschel:  While, I cannot say STA2 sucks, because its a playable tank - STA2 is no where near LIS in usefulnessHeck, STA2 can't even compete with tech tree STA1, or tanks like RH07 Its a subpar, I'd say. I'd rather play STA2 over AMXCDC or FV4202 or T25 Pilot. Yes, but not much else   

Draschel: Play another 43,000 battles. Though I suspect even after that, you still won't know what A,B,and C are/ In World of Tanks, that is

1LT_Dwayne: Since you seem to like challenges you should play tier 10 with 50% crew skills, 0 equipment and 0 skills/perks.

1LT_Dwayne: Best option for me too.

1LT_Dwayne:  So if I've use the +1 I can break them and it will stay in the collection?

1LT_Dwayne: I would pay for an insurance plan so if something happens I would be covered.

1LT_Dwayne: I bought loot boxes at 9:00 ET. Am I eligible? 

Draschel: Lets agree, that I don't believe this. I don't want to downplay wins as something I don't want or care about. I never said winning doesn't matter or isn't important. Its just not as important as caused damage, assistance damage, blocked damage. And naturally, if you focus on these things, wins will come naturally as a result. The wins will follow.
