ElPozoleOlmeca: ¡Buenas! Un iniciativo personal , me gustaría saber si tienen sugerencias de Museos Militares en sus países?   Nombre del País:  Ciudad:  Nombre del Museo:  Enlace del Museo: (si tiene un sitio)   ¡Entre más información mejor! 

dance210:   I want feedback from all members of the team, both before and after the tournament. I'll set up a separate thread after the tournament is over.   From captains, we are requested screenshots of the after battle reports; the more members of the team the captain can collect them from, the better.   In addition, post-tournament feedback is also requested from anyone who watches the Finals on Sunday.

The_Chieftain: Didn't think of that, but it's a fair point. And as I said, from reading the script, I was certainly not the first tanker to look it over and give comments.

The_Chieftain: I doubt we'll run out too soon. I'll see you there.

The_Chieftain: I was not impressed by the movie. The show/miniseries "The Tuskeegee Airmen" was far better. I know one of the advisors for Red Tails, Chris Bucholtz. One of the best authorities on the subject. He practically wanted to disown the movie, but he was only paid to advise, not control.

Pigeon_of_War: Not really a known issue, but I can see how it can be an issue. 
Please send a DxDiag and Python to Support and I or our Tech support team 

The_Chieftain:   I don't recall any Shermans bouncing Tiger shells in the script. I do recall a number of Shermans blowing up, and I did mention that turrets flying off were more the exception than the rule, and if they wanted dramatic instant brews, they probably should be 75mm tanks.   It sure as hell won't be Red Tails, trust me.

Trevzor: Hey everyone! Terribly sorry for the delay, but I have great news!   A new, and fully functional wrapper is available!   You can download it from this link: http://dl.wargaming.net/wot/us/files/worldoftanks-1.0.12.dmg   All you need to do is delete your old wrapper and download and install the new one.   So far everything seems to be working in our office, but please do add your feedback to the Official Feedback Thread.   I'll be pinning this topic so that everyone can see it.   Thanks for being so patient and awesome!

Trevzor: UPDATE!   Hey everyone! Terribly sorry for the delay, but I have great news!   A new, and fully functional wrapper is available!   You can download it from this link: http://dl.wargaming.net/wot/us/files/worldoftanks-1.0.12.dmg   All you need to do is delete your old wrapper and download and install the new one.   So far everything seems to be working in our office, but please do add your feedback to the Official Feedback Thread.   I'll be pinning this topic so that everyone can see it.   Thanks for being so patient and awesome!

Hypnotik: But even still not by the match admin, he needs to consult his assistants for the red card/game ban.

Pigeon_of_War:     Feel free to send me that replay and I will investigate it for you!    Support Tickets are always the welcome.

Pigeon_of_War:   The short answer is, the VRT is sick and is currently in the hospital getting better. It will  be back once we get things sorted out with it. 

Pigeon_of_War: Hey Tankers!

So when it comes to integrity check issues, the best thing to do currently is a full re-install. We are aware of the issue and are working on it.

Sorry if this has drastically cut into anyone's tanking! 

The_Chieftain: No, short range, and only a specific part of the side

SchnellerDamon: Would have been a perfect 9-0-0 if I had been subbed in....just saying guys. 

ElPozoleOlmeca: Would have been a perfect 9-0-0 if I had been subbed in....just saying guys. 

Hypnotik: You have to change your name to Zidane, and then you can headbutt.

pizzastorm: We went 7-1-1 today!  Thanks to everyone who came out to play.  Look for us again in a few days!  

Pigeon_of_War: Hey Telscher, the DXDiag and Python instructions are listed below as a tab:
   your WOTLauncher.cfg, python.log and WOTLauncher.log files (sometimes just text files called 'python' and 'WOTLauncher') from the root folder in which World of Tanks is installed on your computer (the default location is C:\Games\World_Of_Tanks).

----------

In addition, please compile and send us a DxDiag report file so we may get a clear picture of your computer's characteristics.

Please follow the associated steps below:
- On your Windows task bar, click Start (Windows icon usually in the lower left corner of the screen).
- Select and press "Run" (if you do not see "Run", hold down the "Windows" button on your keyboard and press "R"). A "Run" window should pop up.
- In the "Run" window, type "dxdiag" and click "OK". A "DirectX Diagnostic Tool" window should pop up. Wait for it to finish gathering your info before saving.
- In the appeared window choose "Save all information".

pizzastorm:   We are entering the queue for our last game right now.   We will probably try to run 2 platoons this Friday! I'll put up another post with the times. Most likely in the afternoon. 

MeatheadMilitia: Currently 6-1-1  

The_Chieftain:   I know, and I told the director that before they started filming. I suggested that in order to make the scene work, they may be better off facing a Jagdpanther or Panther, or change Fury to a 75mm gun tank (Which would also solve the white phosphorous problem). In the end, they decided they wanted the cachet of the Tiger for commercial appeal (and Bovvy had it, not a working Panther), and Bovvy's available Sherman was a 76mm, so I'm afraid it's 'suspension of disbelief' (Don't spread those details around too much, please)  

The_Chieftain:     Pidgin english, mainly. But enough of the RU staff speak English. The lass in the blue raincoat is my producer for the Inside the Hatch videos made in Russia, she speaks quite good English. I had a couple of Russians ID me over the weekend. Not the hat, though, it doesn't get much air time in Russia.   As to the myths thread, I checked in with the mods. It was becoming a time/resource hog, with people reporting other people left, right and center, often for spurious reasons (like "I don't agree with this post, so I'll report it") or people being butt-hurt over the slightest perceived insult. As a result, they decided to close it. The daft thing is that they're resigned to the fact that there'll be a Part 2.

Hypnotik: Those are kinda pushing it. This is acceptable though.

pizzastorm: We have been defeated! 3-1

pizzastorm:   We will do this more later this week and next.  I'll try and give more notice as well.

SchnellerDamon:

ElPozoleOlmeca:

pizzastorm: 2-0 so far  

Hypnotik:   None of this allowed:

pizzastorm: Tankers,   Hypnotik, MeatheadMilitia, and I (maybe some subs as well) will be running a 3 man platoon in soccer mode for the next hour or so.   Platoon up and come find us on the East server for a chance to win some gold.   500 gold per person for a victory and 150 gold each for a loss.

pizzastorm:   Haha! I played the IS-6 solo for a long time (and badly) then I played about 400 games with some purple players, 1stTanks and Ovid. Learned quite a bit and since then I've been back to mostly solo play.

SchnellerDamon:  

ElPozoleOlmeca:  

pizzastorm: I move up as soon as I have the chance to. I find the grind for each tier a good amount of time to learn the tank I am using.    Of course this is different for everyone and you should find the progression speed that works best for you.
