lord_farquad: We apologize for the lack of information on the tourney page for
the tier 6 Challenge. It should be visible now. As schedules are
posted throughout the day please keep an eye on your division to
make sure the schedules match up with the posted schedules. Due to
the high volume of teams (and the fact that we have to schedule
each round individually) it will be easy for us to miss something,
so we'll need your help ensuring your division is scheduled
correctly.
Please feel free to PM us with any concerns you may have or inconsistencies you notice.

To answer your question: no. Simple as that... we didn't expect it.
Expect the unexpected, right?
You can't always do that in game design.

GeneralDirection: Believe me, Solono... if we could go back in time we would have a
plethora of event functionality in at release. The reality is that
when the game was developed we didn't plan for events at this
frequency. It took us a few months to hit a comfort zone when it
came to running events--we didn't know how they would impact the
game and we were careful with their implementation.
Even now some event features are risky and still being evaluated; premium shell discounts are a great example.
Moving forward we'll make sure to approach events with what we've learned and also what we've heard from you--our players. This goes for all Wargaming titles, not just World of Tanks.

GeneralDirection: Regarding the feedback in the thread, it's obvious we need to
reassess the design process for events--I will admit that. It would
be fantastic if we could change these settings on the fly without
the need for programming or QA.
Ultimately, that is the goal. However, we aren't there yet. Just as all games improve their server scripting over time, we must do so too.
It requires development time just like a new game mode, a new tech tree, a new clan wars mechanic or an entirely new feature.
Realistically, we have to prioritize the development of the game--we don't have unlimited programmers or designers (man I wish we did).
So... we aren't able to change events on the fly like we'd love to. We will be able to at some point, but not today and probably not in 8.2.
What I will say is that the NA event planning will be revamped for 2013. December is set in stone, but January isn't.
We'll go back to the drawing board and make sure we do everything possible to account for updates--even if that means multiple "what if?" variants.
I won't promise you'll see a nod to every new vehicle or feature the month it releases, but we'll consider it where it makes sense.
You guys and gals deserve that much, and I'm able to make it happen, so consider it done.

CatStalker: It's more useful at later tiers. Once a crew is at 100% primary
skill, you can retrain them for another tank of the same type to
80% primary for free or 90% primary for credits. in this way they
also retain all the secondary skill xp you've earned

reason we do not include new tanks in specials is because...
they're new. It's for a few reasons: we don't think they're ready
to be discounted, we want natural gameplay data on their
progression, balance and attractiveness, and because there's not
always a guarantee the update will release before a given special
that month.
To enlighten everyone, a month is planned out the first week of the previous month. So for example, November planning was wrapped up on October 5th, and finalized on October 12th--right when testing for 8.1 started. We weren't comfortable scheduling events with British tanks because there's always the possibility testing will last longer than we anticipate. Basically, we're not going to design live events around something not released yet. We'll get around to supporting new update content with specials the month after it releases.

Once we're done updating the existing maps, the map team will be entirely focused on adding brand new maps.

Captain_Judo: Great question.
There's no relationship between your group number and seeding in the playoff round. Teams in the playoff round will be reseeded based on earned points in the qualifying round.

Mugsy_: Hello folks,
I think what the OP was trying to say is that regardless of performance he doesn't think players should be penalized worse than just breaking even. This is a complex issue but your feedback is noted.
In the meantime find the Tier you can play at that is profitable, try to platoon when possible, and find resources to help you improve your matches.

GeneralDirection: No, a small alteration cannot be made. These specials are not
simple database changes--they are server files coded by the
programming team, sent through QA to confirm they work, etc.
Altering something means more work for the programmer, another round of QA to make sure that alteration didn't break something, and so on. We'd rather just schedule British events the following month than risk breaking something on the server last minute.

Admins,
I'm an Australian gamer and I usually anchor my WGNA event time zone adjustments from your published UTC times.
Now that we're getting close to the start of this tourney I've just noticed some dodgy time zone numbers and conversions contained within the published info. Being a visual kinda guy I figured it easiest (hopefully) to demonstrate the errors/ambiguities, as follows (my edits/queries are in red, with footnotes below):
Schedule
Round-robin Qualifier Rounds: November 16thRound 1: 6:00PM PST (9PM EST, 01:00AM[*1] UTC the following day)
Round 2: 6:20 PM PST (9[:20?]PM EST, 01:20AM[*1] UTC the following day)
Final number of rounds TBA at close of registration, up to a maximum of 9 rounds Playoffs & Tiebreakers: November 17thTiebreakers Rounds: 1:00-3:00PM PST (4:00-6:00PM EST, 07:00-9:00PM[*2] UTC)
Round 1: 3:30PM PST (6:30PM EST, 09:30PM[*2] UTC)
Round 2: 5:30PM PST (8:30PM EST, 11:30PM[*2] UTC)
Round 3: 7:30PM PST (10:30PM EST, 01:30AM[*2] UTC the following day) Playoffs & Finals: November 18thRound 4 (Quarter-finals): 2:00PM PST (5:00PM EST, 08:00PM[*2] UTC)
Round 5 (Semi-finals): 4:00PM PST (7:00PM EST, 10:00PM[*2] UTC)
Round 6 (Finals & Third Place): 6:00PM PST (9:00PM EST, 12:00AM[*2] UTC the following day)
Notes:
[*1] The UTC times shown here are EST +4 hours. Since Daylight Saving Time in the US has now ended for the season, the UTC offset is back to normal, being EST +5 hours.
[*2] The UTC times shown here are EST +3 hours(!). Again, the correct time shift for UTC is currently EST +5 hours.
Can an admin please make the necessary time corrections (to either PST/EST or UTC), so we international players can schedule ourselves for the correct time?
Many thanks.
