dance210:   Hello Sgt_King_Gunner,   We have special plans for the kannonenjagdpanzer in the future. We are excluding the tank from the trade-in feature due to these plans.  

dance210: -snip- Also, can we trade in multiple tier 6 premiums tanks to get a tier 8 premium?   Hello eragon0319,   You need to have enough gold to purchase the tank in order to use the trade-in feature. You can only trade in one tank for each transaction.  

dance210:   Hello Vauntin,   It should be possible to use the trade-in feature for all tanks listed in the news article. Could you please send me a screenshot of your garage or explain what issue you are seeing when you try to use the trade-in feature? Thanks!  

dance210:   Hello ER_Hero,   Can you send me a screenshot of your garage showing the issue or explain what is happening? With more information I should be able to assist you.   Please note, you need to have space free in the barracks and enough gold to purchase the tank in order to do the trade-in.  

dance210:   Hello Charlie_Tuna,   When you sell a tank, you receive credits and not gold. The trade-in feature is the only way to use the indicated gold value of the tank to reduce the cost of a different Premium tank in the tech tree.

The_Chieftain: I looked at it a while back, but it's a very long way for us to go for a very niche audience, many of whom have no interest in WW2 or computer games.

The_Chieftain:   That is "within reason"?

dance210:  Tanker! Have an Premium tank that you don't use anymore? Want to trade it in for a different Premium tank? Now's your chance! From now until May 15, 2017 at 04:20 PT / 07:20 ET, trade in any tier VI-VIII Premium tank when you buy a new Premium vehicle from the tech tree of the same or higher tier. When trading in, half of the old tank’s value in Gold will be deducted from the price of the new vehicle. Only one vehicle can be traded in at a time. Find out all the details, including which tanks are eligible for trade-in, in the news article here!

dance210: Hi guys!   I apologize for the delay! We are going through the finalists to determine the winners for the contest. I am hoping to announce the winners by today or tomorrow at the latest!

dance210:   Hi ferginator!   Good luck on your first tournament!   Tournaments normally take place on US1 - which is the East server. A special battle notification will appear on the bottom bar before the battle begins. You will need to click on that, then click on the window that appears. This should bring you to the special battle window - you will see the teams playing, tier limits, time until it starts and your name should appear on the left side in red. Once you have selected your tank, click the "Ready" button, which will turn your name from red to green. You will also need to move your name from the left side (reserve) to the right side (active). ONLY players on the right side of the window, with a green box, will enter the battle when the countdown reaches zero.

dance210:  

dance210:   Yes, this is an American server. However, we are also part of an international company and there's nothing wrong with acknowledging what happens in other countries

dance210:   True, but there are also names that are against the rules. When those names slip past me, it's always good to have players message me directly so I can take care of them

dance210:   Hi!   Usually if it is a first time offender I will give them a "free" name. If it's super bad or if they continue, then I will take actions to prevent them from joining tournaments in the future / DQ the team for that tournament.   Unfortunately, with the 1v1 tournaments it's super easy for me to miss a name when going through so many teams. Feel free to shoot me a PM or send an email to tournaments@wargamingamerica.com and I'll take care of it!   Apologies for missing it the first time I checked

dance210:   Hello Romulus,   We apologize for the confusion. The correct end is May 2, 2017 at 4:20 PT / 7:20 ET.   The article has now been corrected to prevent any further confusion. Thank you!

dance210:   Hello jamesdoz,   We understand the frustration that you feel. This is a known issue and we are working on fixing it as quickly as possible.   We apologize for the inconvenience and delay while we correct the problem.

dance210: I have almost 200 days premium time. I'm actively playing. and an [edited]in a batch chat comes and starts pushing me. bumping pushing trying to push me off the cliff. I can only assume they: 1. have a problem with my choice of play style. 2. don't like that I'm in a premium tank. 3. think they are George S. Patton.   I'm tired of this. I paid to play this game. that doesn't make me better than anyone. but they sure as hell shouldnt get to dictate my play and get away with it. PERIOD. So this pushing and shoving goes on for half the fight. I'm still trying to shoot enemy tanks while fighting off this classy guy in the tier 9 bat chat. Eventually I damage him and I get the team damage ban wthWG? 5 years of paying you chumps my hard earned dollars...and this is what I get? I'm tired of this. FING DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS FING BS. I could probably understand if I weren't trying to actively participate. But with 20 seconds in....this guy instantly goes bonkers.   for those that are about to say send in a  ticket file a complaint....why? they don't even fing review them any more. Nothing EVER HAPPENS. Maybe if I had  SIMP, G, Havok or some other super clan tag by my name.....or was some kind of "e-sports pro" ([edited]@ that bs tittle) then maybe ....just MAYBE WG would do something. but no. I'm sit on my fat ... for the next day and play something else. Maybe even spend some money on another game.  When the rest of you turkeys start paying for my premium time then you can tell me how to play. till the STFU and drive your tank. I'll drive mine!   RANT OVER   Hello 310thCopperhead,   Abuse of physics (pushing out teammates, blocking teammates) is against the rules and is not part of the automatic team damage system. If you have a player who abuses physics, please submit a Support ticket with a description of the issue and a replay. While our staff are not allowed to discuss any sanctions that may take place, due to our privacy policy, be assured that reports for abuse of physics are taken seriously and will be dealt with.  

Njourour: So, Can I close this now ? 

dance210:   Hi Qualm,   Thank you, we are aware that the link is broken. We are in the process of getting the linked fixed. We apologize for the broken link   

dance210:   In the US and Canada, yes. However, other countries celebrate Labour Day (or International Workers Day) on May 1st

dance210:   Hello WruceBayne,   I love introducing special restrictions to the tournaments; I've always felt that it encourages (or forces) players to try different things. I can try adding some in for the 3v3 tournaments; however it may take longer for any disputes to be processed and for prizes to go out to the winners.

Mezurashi: Please stay on topic.    Thanks.

Volier_Zcit: Please review our Forum Rules. Naming and shaming is not allowed here. You can submit a ticket to our support for this one to be investigated: https://na.wargaming...upport/tickets.   Thread closed

The_Chieftain:   They are, actually, Wiley-Xs. They're not issue, because I find the issue ones highly uncomfortable: They all have thick plastic arms, and the CVC earpieces press my ears against them, and then against the skull. The glasses in the picture come with a more spectacle-like wire frame, and are thus far more comfortable. The style has been out of production for somewhere over a decade, now, unfortunately.   My response to Sgt is here. http://forum.worldof...0#entry10945140

Yoott:   All good ideas and things that can and will be reviewed and improvements always worked towards for next season/year/in general
Constructive feedback is always welcome     Good Luck to you and your team next season :-)
         

dance210:   Hi Jeffe_,   I have heard nothing more on Wargames. Whenever I find out more information, I will pass it along to y'all.

Njourour: Closed thread. I'm not seeing this conversation evolving into a constructive dialogue.

dance210: Attention Tankers! There are plans to release Micropatch 0.9.18_2 on April 27th, 2017 Maintenance will begin at 03:30 PT (10:30 UTC) and will last approximately one hour. During maintenance, the World of Tanks servers will be unavailable. Patch notes: The matchmaking mechanics were adjusted as follows:The top tier of three-tier battles will comprise the same number of tank destroyers, SPGs, and light tanks (of both Platoon and solo players) in both teams. For each of these vehicle types, the number of vehicles will be the same in both teams (i.e. they will be treated separately). In addition, the top tier will comprise the same aggregate number of medium and heavy tanks in both teams, but these vehicle types will not be treated separately. The top tier of three-tier battles can have only one SPG.

dance210:   1's and 0's look so much alike.....    Fixed, thanks blackzaru!

dance210: Tankers!   The times for Advances will be changing. Please see below for more information.   Starting Wednesday, April 26, there will no longer be Advances at at 21:00 PT / 00:00 ET the next day during the week (Monday - Friday).   Starting Saturday, April 29, there will be two additional times for Advances - 17:00 PT / 20:00 ET and 18:00 PT / 21:00 ET. These additional times will be on Saturdays and Sundays.   Good luck on the battlefield!

dance210:   Hello FryTheBeans,   In order to receive the gift, you need to play a battle. If you have done that and still do not receive it, please feel free to shoot me a message! Thanks

The_Chieftain:   Was unaware you had posted publicly as well as in PM. For anyone else, I responded as below.   ------------------------------- Sgt. Miller,    As a veteran of the US Army, I stand by my statement. As I observe, and you quoted, a minority of folks will commemorate Memorial Day for the purpose was originally intended. I presume you are one of those. If so, you are a rarity. Of the ten-million-plus population of New York City, how many people actually attend the Memorial Day Parades (There are actually five of them)? Check out the Memorial Day events listed on NBC Los Angeles' website. http://www.nbclosang...s-94852249.html , how many of them relate to deceased servicemen? The crowd at my 'local' Memorial Day Event, in the city of San Francisco is, by photographs, on the order of a few hundred. Not the tens of thousands in a similarly sized Australian city.   In Australia, it is prohibited to use "ANZAC" in anything like a commercial setting as it takes away from the solemn, commemorative nature of the holiday, yet come next month, your radio and TV will be replete with adverts Memorial Day Sales for car dealerships and department stores. Tell me I'm wrong. This does not down-grade anyone's memorial commemoration/celebration. It observes that as a nation, we in the US no longer greatly consider memorial commemorations/celebrations as a solemn event in the first place.   We may have fought so that folks can have their day at the beach. That's fine, and there is no reason why a commemoration or celebration has to be a somber, dour affair. In fact, I rather prefer a party. I hope to have a good wake when I die. However, if you go down to Miami Beach on Memorial Day, how many of those folks are going to even think about raising their beer in a nod to fallen servicemen before drinking it? I am highly unconvinced that a video like the below can be filmed in Australia or New Zealand.     So, to be clear. I am not putting down yours, or anyone else's memorial day celebration. You must admit, however, that there is a very significant difference in the national attitudes between the US and Australia about the day supposedly to remember those who gave their lives.

The_Chieftain:   The difference between a US soldier and one from any other country is that a GI will use a five battery TOT to remove a problem when any right-thinking fighting man would use a hand-grenade... Overkill one is in law as well. To my knowledge, nobody has ever been found guilty of overkill.   T-shirt. 

dance210: Tankers!   We are looking for suggestions on how you would improve tier VIII Stronghold Skirmishes. Please let us know your ideas and suggestions in this thread.   Thanks!

The_Chieftain:   I'll see you your PM,  and raise you the Governor of Missouri two days ago. https://www.facebook...10624859428485/

Saffr0n:   I'm impressed, you're better than the server average while having high latency     Which launcher are you using? Our WGC beta launcher was shared so a lot of players are using that, which isn't compatible with the diagnostic tool. This should be the same link, but download here: http://dl-support.wa.../WGCheck_EN.zip and run the program as administrator. 

Saffr0n:   Do you use discord or run any other programs while playing?

Saffr0n:   You've always averaged 600-700 ms? Have you ever run our diagnostic tool? https://na.wargaming...kb/articles/790 Can you create a WGCheck report and attach it to a ticket and pm me the ID #? 

dance210:   Each round (with the exception of the Finals) is set up as the first to 1 win out of 2 battles. The round time is calculated so that both rounds can be played completely, plus extra time in between the rounds.

dance210:   Hello adamant15,   The Call to Arms tournament on April 29th will be played on the Attack/Defense version of Sand River

Mezurashi: Do we really need the stat and name shaming?
Just a reminder to be respectful and civil.
