After-Battle statistics changes in 8.6

Mugsy_: Dear all,
We want to share with you some early concepts of new UI of after battle statistics screen, which will be added in upcoming updates.
First of all, we, as always, will add more lines in detailed statistics:
'Hits received' - each shot on players vehicle counts as one hit. All ricochets, screen armour damage and non-penetration shots also counts as hits received.
'Penetrations' - all shots on player, which penetrated armour and dealt damage
'HE damage' - all splash damage dealt to player vehicle
'No damage' - all hits, on player's vehicle, which dealt no damage.
And we also make tooltips a bit more informative, since we are not quite satisfied with the data they currently provide. Attached you may see an early concept:
This is just part of upcoming updates. This Monday we will share with you some details about changes in battle mechanics.
Stay tuned!

Major_Rampage: The expansion of the gift shop to include the
weekends, created a few snags this
month.
I do thank you all for you feedback, and took a long look at what we are planning for June, and I am making sure we see more variety, and that gift shops will be syncing up with the specials, and events.
Thanks again for all of you constructive criticism, it has been very helpful in making these changes.

AGK47, on May 17 2013 - 00:29, said: JT, I think there should be a private appeals section on the forums
where people can communicate directly with whoever sanctioned them,
and clear up misunderstandings without support being in the middle.
It would ideally be set up like this:
-Link to section leads you to page where you can submit an appeal.
-You fill out appropriate info, like what you meant by the thread, or intended to say, etc.
-You send report. Reports can only be viewed by you, affiliated parties (if any), and WG employees/mods
-Reports may only be officially replyed to by mods, but may be commented on privately by affiliated parties (Mods can see comments, but not the defendant)
-Mod who issued sanction may repeal, or commute sanction, but if they choose not to, members of Mod/GM team votes on it if serious.
-Appeals only allowed once every 24 hours unless given permission by mod in case of error.
This is merely a thought, and is not meant to criticize WG, or employees of WG. What do you think, JT?
Quote 2. PROHIBITIONS and RESTRICTIONS
...
2.8 Discussing disciplinary actions
This category includes:
1. Creating posts or threads to discuss disciplinary actions taken against a player in game or on the forums
2. Creating posts or threads to discuss moderators or moderator decisions and actions
Such disputes or appeals are to be lodged to (World of Tanks Support)

Jewel_Thief: I think it's a great idea-- but we already have a system in place--
and by registering for our game/forum, you have already agreed to
it... See our Forum Rules:

and are, for all intents and purposes, an impartial party to the

http://imgur.com/ is on approved list and they allow you to paste original URL of the pic you want to fetch (so no need to download and re-upload). Takes exactly 3 extra seconds to post a pic
The first 2 are related to broken search index that hasn't been rebuilt in a month. Forum admins probably have a ticket open with IP.Board for that too, but it's probably low priority.

We have an L1 ticket in wtih our tech support folks... who, in turn, have tickets open with IPS... It's a fairly well-known issue with the IP.Board software, sadly. :(

only post pictures from "approved sites". I couldn't think of any
good reason why this rule is in place.
If I want to post a picture here, I have to either upload it to this forum (which would be pretty useless), or upload it to either Tinypic.com or Imageshack.com. There are probably other sites too, but those are the 2 sites I’ve managed to find that are allowed to work in this forum.

Jewel_Thief: We understand that this is frustrating-- but it was announced a
while back that we have a "whitelist" for safe sites to use for
photo upload and linking here in our forums. You can see the
announcement, from back in January, here. (The most common
upload sites are already included on our whitelist. i.e.: imgur,
photobucket, imageshack, flickr, dropbox, etc.)

are likely to do nothing about it as it does not cut into their

Yes, it is a known issue. We don't fix these types of things here in house, so we are waiting on a response from our technical support team. We have an L1 ticket in on the issue. (This is the highest level of priority.)
Unfortunately, this feature tends to go down with every major forum patch (mattwong had it right: it has to do with indexing glitches)... this time it seems to have gone down for good. Again, it is a known issue, and is being worked on.

is that you may not bring more than one of the exact same tank. So
you would not be allowed to use the Comet twice.

codplayer424, on May 16 2013 - 15:57, said: Does this mean we can use only 1 Tier 7 medium or you can't use the
Comet Twice?Captain_Judo: You're free to use as many Tier 7 mediums as you wish. The caveat
is that you may not bring more than one of the exact same tank. So
you would not be allowed to use the Comet twice.
LostMyMarbles, on May 16 2013 - 20:38, said: so for the TD' max is Tier 6 so a tiers below that would work as
welland i am confused about the Arty on the tournament page it says tier 3 but here it says tier 6 ?????
so is that a max tier 6 for arty or only max tier 3 arty
my clan is wanting to join but we have better arty players with a tier 6 arty
Captain_Judo: Typo on the forum post. The max tier for arty is 3.

The reason we switched over to not using individual names is to
present a united front, since we are all one big team, working from
the same policies and procedures. This does NOT change the fact
that you have the right to appeal the decision-- but you MUST use

GeneralDirection: Here are the perks of working for Wargaming:We can purchase removed
premium vehicles like the Type 59 and KV-5, assuming our account
has the gold to purchase it. This does not include alpha/beta
tanks, the pre-order tanks, those tier 10s that were on the Common
Test, or any unreleased tanks. Those are off limits, even for
us.
We get to work for an amazing company that is doing awesome stuff--not just in video games. Who'd imagine when they applied for a company that makes games, that they would actively participate (and in some cases design) initiatives to preserve history?
We get to have red names in garage chat.
We get to sometimes travel to other countries to meet the development teams and our colleagues across the world. Here are the restrictions:We're not allowed to participate in eSports tournaments. The exception being the Escalation event this past weekend, which was designed as a casual tournament that we wanted to field a team for. We tied for second in our group, so I'm fairly proud of our team.
We're not allowed to defend land in Clan Wars. We can participate in landing tournaments, but if we win the land, we can't defend it. We haven't done this yet, but we're thinking of some fun ideas to run random stuff where we mix things up on the map a bit.
We're not allowed to participate in contests or in-game events (except for the obvious x5 first victory, vehicle discounts, etc.). If we place in automated events like this past weekend's MVP, we're excluded and the next person in line is included instead.
We have to unlock and purchase all vehicles like everyone else. We also have to earn crew experience and purchase equipment like everyone else.
We do not get any special kind of ammo, or camouflage (except during sheriff events). We also have to purchase premium ammo just like everyone else.
We cannot select maps, except for a limited developer flagged account. Those accounts are generally used to create the trailers and other videos we release, so very few people actually have that account flag. It's actually primarily dummy accounts only used for videos.
We don't get premium account status by default; we have to purchase it with our gold. So basically, except for the ability to purchase removed premiums, we're players just like you.

CatStalker: i did some potential math for you.
4x 1030 = 4120 2x 650 = 1300 5x 4000 = 20000 total = 25420.
my guess would be that perhaps in a previous game you used 5 premium shells, but couldn't afford the auto-reload after that game.
then in this game you shot 4 reg, 2 he, and also had enough credits to refill the premium ammo from before.
Just because it was bothering me, and the OP was sure that premium shells weren't used:
19x 1030 = 19570 9x 650 = 5850 total = 25420
4x 1030 = 4120 2x 650 = 1300 5x 4000 = 20000 total = 25420.
