Subject: Capping etiquette?
Link on message: #10991540
Link on message: #10991540
Quemapueblos: As many people have said, the best strategy is the strategy that
gets a win and sometimes that means sitting on cap, sometimes it
means chasing enemy tanks down. Some players can get frustrated
when a game is already won and they want to extend the battle out
as long as possible to give them time to earn more EXP, this is a
courtesy and not a rule.

Quemapueblos: We deployed a patch this morning to fix the issue and it seems like
it working OK on the machines I tested in the office but please

issues.
Subject: Looking for guides/videos on effectively working hills

Quemapueblos: My Americans can do great on the hills but as NothingElse2
mentioned, Russian are too happy to fight on hard angled terrain.
You just can't bring your gun to bear unless you approach the bumps
at odd angles. Chieftian has some good videos on cover and how to approach that might
help you survive a little longer on Westfield

Quemapueblos: You probably already tried this but just in case try an Integrity Check before reinstall. As Bronco
mentioned, a clean reinstall should solve your issues. Make sure
there are no old mod files in the appdata or document folder that
might be screwing up something.

The_Chieftain: Back in the UK. The last time I did the cross channel run, it was
by hovercraft. I recall it being quick, but noisy and decidedly
rough, the thing repeatedly crashing into the waves. The ferries I
remember taking too long. The train was very quick, very quiet. I
was in Folkestone before I finished sewing my backpack back
together. Currently sitting in a pub in Dover, wondering why the
Ferries are still a thing. Especially when the ferry sells per
person, but the train sells per vehicle. We we may have
bitten off more than we can chew on this trip. We have been way
behind schedule on filming, and our tickets and hotels allow
insufficient flexibility. Got into The Ardennes at 1am local
this morning. I'm supposed to have an essay done for my Army course
this week as well: "What lessons can be learned from the 1973 Arab
Israeli war, and the 1991 Gulf War?"

frustrating it is to find out that something is cancelled because
one person won't be around. While there are many employees working
in the company, we all have a different role. Mine currently
includes running tournaments. Unfortunately, when I am not around,
there isn't anyone trained on all our tournament tools to run
tournaments in my absence. I apologize for cancelling the
tournaments; we never do so lightly and we try to keep them running
as much as possible.

dance210: Hi bomaster99, You should be able to upload your
image to a site like Imgur. Once uploaded, you will need to use the
drop down to get shareable links - the one that you want starts
with "i.imgur" - do not use the one that just starts with "imgur"
as it will not work. Click on the image icon and add the URL
that you have copied (make sure to remove the [img] [/img] tags if
those were copied. Your image should now be visible on the forums.
If that doesn't work, you should still be able to link to
your image, using a site like Imgur, and clicking on the link
should take us there. And if that still doesn't work, let me know.
I prefer it not go to Meathead - I'm going away on vacation and I
don't know if I'll talk to him before the contest ends. I don't
want your image to get lost somewhere between him and I

way the second option is setup due to the wording.

rules state that if the tier is not correct than the tournament
battles don't count. The second option allows those who were not
able to participate to play. Because there are fewer teams in each
playoff bracket, more teams will be able to win prizes. The
250 gold compensation is the standard amount given when there is a
technical issue that prevents the tournament from running as
planned. If the battles can't be rescheduled, then the compensation
is given. In this case, it is possible to reschedule the battles
using the correct settings.

dance210: Hi all! Sorry for the delay in responding and for the glitch
in last night's battles. It appears as though the glitch only
affected those in the Lower Playoffs. As the tier settings
were not correct, the battles from last night do not count.
There are two options to fix this: Lower Playoffs ONLY are
cancelled and all players receive 250 gold Battles are rescheduled
for Friday. Playoff bracket will have a max of 16 teams, to allow
all rounds to conclude within one day. Prizes will be paid out per
bracket. The current plan is to go with Option 2. The
currently scheduled battles for tomorrow will be cancelled. New
playoff brackets for the Lower Playoff will be created and
re-scheduled, using the correct tier limits. This will allow all
teams to participate, as there is quite a difference between tier
III and tier VII. Again, apologies for the glitch and
good luck tomorrow.
