Skirmish 20, though, is "first to 3." The team that wins three matches (limited to 25 matches in case of draws) will win the round and move on to the next day.

Currently border of aiming circle have ~20% chance for shell.
For tanks and TD's you are lowering it to ~5% for border and distribution missing 15% inside of circle.
For artillery however you will spread those 20% on additional area of enlarged circle.
Do I got it correctly this time?

GeneralDirection: Kind of. SPGs will still benefit from the RNG change, but their
accuracy will be a little weaker than before. You should run into
fewer "why did that hit 6 feet outside of my reticle?" situations,
but your shots won't be as accurate as other vehicles.

- We're changing the way RNG works, which will result in improved accuracy, and more predictable outcomes overall.
- We're tweaking accuracy of SPGs, so that they receive the more predictable part, but not the improved accuracy part.
The article is not wrong; it probably could have been worded better, but it's actually correct. Basically, SPGs are not going to benefit from this change, because we're reducing their accuracy. They won't suffer from it either, though, so those of you who are calling these nerfs--they're not. Everything else is just getting buffed. Though, if you're a glass half empty kinda person, maybe that's a nerf. :)

I would love to work with WGA, but unfortunately I can't.
Damage control is not my point. I have seen several forums that have been locked recently having to do about accidental crew dismissal. This was in response to that. Your thread however was only brought up by your clan leader there.

should think of the ramifications of what you are proposing and how
difficult it would be to acheive it before you post it. ex. get rid
of arty(how to reimburse arty players) or mm that takes into
account w/r. Also, people should think about the
economics behind what they propose. If it's something
that would make wg money and the community likes, it will probably
get implemented(like prem ammo for silver), which people begged for
before it was implemented and complain about now.

MechEng03, on May 16 2013 - 13:54, said: Captain Judo,
My team is 16-1 not 16-2. The error is probably a double count with this match: !!!ANYBODY CAN JOIN!!! 0:1 !!!Anyone can join!!!
Thanks,
Mech
EDIT: Same goes for Scurry Hard. They only have one loss.
Unker, on May 17 2013 - 20:07, said: For the coordinators, there are five errors in the standings (Assuming the battle results on the web page are accurate):
1. !!!Anyone can join!!! should have 1 win instead of 2. I think this was already posted in here by the team.
2. The Think Tank has the correct W/L/D showing, but it calculates to 38 points instead of 36.
3. 4SAKN Tank has the correct W/L/D showing, but it calculates to 22 points instead of 21.
4. 2nd Battalion @2nd Marines should have 6 wins instead of 5.
5. SAVAGES should have 2 wins instead of 1.
I should also point out that even though its not in the rules, you are going to need an additional tiebreaker. The format of one battle/3 opponents per night seems like a fun format for the open league, but it negates games lost/won as a valid tiebreaker. You can use heads up, strength of opponents, random/coin flip or something. With the current standings, you don't need this to determine the top 64, but you will need it to seed to tournament. For example, Scurry Hard and Lincoln Brigade are tied for 6th. They obviously will make the tournament, but one has to be 6th seed and one 7th, since their matchups in the tournament will be different.

Captain_Judo: Tonight, teams with 15 battles (or less) will have an opportunity
to play additional battles.
As for those teams mischeduled on May 4th, your wins from that night will stand. However, your losses will be removed from your battle count. After removing those losses, if your battle count is 15 or below, you will also have an opportunity (tonight) to play additional battles.

TragicLoss, on May 18 2013 - 04:07, said: How to correctly create buzz about a suggestion without getting
your thread locked:
I.Creating the buzz
A. Find other people with the same issue
1. When posting your suggestion ask that people support your cause in adding the feature into the game.
Ex. I want a "Copy to Clipboard" option for in-game, who agrees with me?
B. Try to see if a GM is available to give a little bit of constructive criticism
1. GMs are our link to the WoT gods, don't make them the enemy.
Ex. Hey, Jewel_thief. If you're not busy would you mind taking a look at my suggestion thread on a "Copy to Clipboard" option in game?
a. Don't bother them with this, one message and a link is enough, the GMs are busy people.
C. Give legitimate reasons as to WHY this would improve the overall WoT experience
1. Have other people give reasons as to why this is a good idea
Ex. "I think this is a great idea! I never have time to write down a username and if I am dead I have to wait till the match ends to 'Copy to Clipboard' someone's name to check out their stats when I leave the match"
2. Get positive support for your BUZZ not negative support for the WGA team, they are only there to try and create a more positive experience for you.
II.What not to do
A. Don't post your ticket messages
1.This will get your thread locked for spam/disputing a WGA GM/Mod
2.It isn't constructive
a.Instead try summarizing what the ticket response was about and make a suggestion that WGA program a rollback system.
Ex. Ticket sent was about accidental crew dismissal and the response said that WGA is unable to rollback any actions.
B. Don't get angry
1. Rallying an angry mob might get you noticed, but it will be negative and less likely to be acknowledged.
C. Don't talk about how much the GMs "suck at doing their job"
1. This is once again not constructive
2. This won't get your suggestion to the ears of the higher ups
3. This is annoying to read
4. They ARE NOT the programmers, they can't magically put your suggestion into the game automatically
a. As much as you would love to, your suggestion will not be instantly in the game. WGA doesn't do much of (if any) the programming. It goes from the players to the WGA team to the main WG people IN RUSSIA. It takes a while and the NA server is not their first concern 100% of the time.
D. Complaining won't get you anywhere

2. Get positive support for your BUZZ not negative support for the WGA team, they are only there to try and create a more positive experience for you.
II.What not to do
A. Don't post your ticket messages
1.This will get your thread locked for spam/disputing a WGA GM/Mod
2.It isn't constructive
a.Instead try summarizing what the ticket response was about and make a suggestion that WGA program a rollback system.
Ex. Ticket sent was about accidental crew dismissal and the response said that WGA is unable to rollback any actions.
B. Don't get angry
1. Rallying an angry mob might get you noticed, but it will be negative and less likely to be acknowledged.
C. Don't talk about how much the GMs "suck at doing their job"
1. This is once again not constructive
2. This won't get your suggestion to the ears of the higher ups
3. This is annoying to read
4. They ARE NOT the programmers, they can't magically put your suggestion into the game automatically
a. As much as you would love to, your suggestion will not be instantly in the game. WGA doesn't do much of (if any) the programming. It goes from the players to the WGA team to the main WG people IN RUSSIA. It takes a while and the NA server is not their first concern 100% of the time.
D. Complaining won't get you anywhere
GeneralDirection: This is a fantastic set of rules to follow when considering a post
that may be controversial. You can add me to the list of people to
reach out to if you're looking to get feedback. However, it should
be a private message; don't go with "Hey GeneralDirection, check

I.Creating the buzz
A. Find other people with the same issue
1. When posting your suggestion ask that people support your cause in adding the feature into the game.
Ex. I want a "Copy to Clipboard" option for in-game, who agrees with me?
B. Try to see if a GM is available to give a little bit of constructive criticism
1. GMs are our link to the WoT gods, don't make them the enemy.
Ex. Hey, Jewel_thief. If you're not busy would you mind taking a look at my suggestion thread on a "Copy to Clipboard" option in game?
a. Don't bother them with this, one message and a link is enough, the GMs are busy people.
C. Give legitimate reasons as to WHY this would improve the overall WoT experience

It is locked because it isn't helpful to beat a dead horse. The WGA Mods can't do anything besides watch the thread blow up. They can only pass the message on and hope that WG Russ puts it into effect. By attacking the GMs you're just creating a situation that is stressful for WGA and isn't constructive to the community.
