Mezurashi: Topic locked upon the request of the topic starter.

Njourour: Closed thread, This will cause unrest.

The_Chieftain:   It's called parallax, and in modern tanks, it's accounted for by the ballistic computer. However, that's why we boresight at a known range 1,200-1,500m away, so that the system (and the backup sight) knows where the reference point is, as well as 1,200m being the battlesight range, which is the 'point-and-shoot' range without any ballistic computing necessary at all.   The location of the backup sight is, thus, also relevant. On the M1, and early Leopard 2s, it's down right next to the gun, so parallax is effectively non-existent. Leo 2A6s, though, have the backup sight mounted up on the roof, so it's more of an issue.   That said, I think the issue is over-stated. The parallax of 2 feet difference isn't likely to have much of an effect on if you're going to hit the target or not, except in the unlikely event that you're aiming for specific parts. More important is knowing if your gun tube is clear of obstructions.

Yoott:   Stream starts at 1pm Pacific First match is scheduled to start between 1 and 1:30 Pacific
after that it is all in how long the matches go as the second will start when the first is over
They are Bo13 so if they are 7 - 0 they will move faster, if they are 7-6 they will be longer

Estimated each match should be about 1 1/2 hours with some downtime to swap players on/off stage so second match approx 3:00 - 3:30 Pacific
Final match starting approx 5 - 530 Pacific but again they could be way earlier or if matches drag out to tiebreakers then it could run later

 

The_Chieftain: A number of those tanks got as far as having the in game model made, such as the T88, T24, M13, and L6, and half the French heavy line.   I feel for the old guy in the Bearcat. Ugh a shame he couldn't take it up. I'll be like that in an M1 or Bradley in 50 years.

Yoott:   The first 5 codes will appear one each day at the locations listed and then there will be 3 + 1 bonus during the broadcast  You must watch the broadcast on http://live.wgleague.net/ Saturday - 1 code per match and the bonus will be random given somewhere during the broadcast  

Yoott:   The codes can appear anytime on each day
and anytime during each match on the stream The stream starts 1pm Pacific

 

Yoott:   Its a bonus
so no if you don't want the extra prize

you can just put in the other codes and get them all correct

Yoott:   There is no dash gate this year :-) 
also it is not case sensitive  

Yoott:   It can be given out anytime during the broadcast    

Njourour: This Tank is for console   Heavy Metal Heroes  = (https://console.worl...s/specials/hmh/)   Closing thread. 

Yoott:   Codes all submitted at one time  

dance210:   Nope. I will be out of town and unable to schedule any tournaments on Saturday.

dance210: Tankers, During “War Games” test, we encountered a technical issue which led to an incorrect invoice of gold and reserves to players and clans.
All incorrectly invoiced surpluses and Premium time purchased with this surplus have been removed from your account. If you believe too much gold was removed, please submit a ticket to Support. The “War Games” event is currently suspended and we will keep you updated if it becomes available. If there are any questions, please let us know.   

dance210:   Hello _War_Lock,   As others have mentioned, the email you received is legit

The_Chieftain:   This one reminds me of Dustin the Turkey.

Saffr0n:   I see your confusion. My clan tag currently is [D4NCE] (for participation in CW/SH) -- I don't have my usual WGA-A tag, but you can probably see my WoT Product Specialist designation (I can assure you that you don't get that without good reason). The survey is completely optional, if you're not up to it I completely understand.    Nice to meet you!

Saffr0n: Try adding a Firewall exception to the Common Test client as it's separate from the live server. 

Mezurashi: Shall we stop with the personal attacks?

Just a friendly reminder.

Mezurashi: Just a reminder that we don't allow sensitive political topics on forum posts.
Thanks.

Mezurashi: Please be reminded that we don't talk about sensitive political issues in the forums. Stay on topic please.   Thanks. 

Njourour: Closed thread. I'm not seeing this conversation evolving into a constructive dialogue.   If you have questions or inquiries about the M6A2E1 Mutant, Kindly go to this Link = http://forum.worldof...sale-april-1st/

Saffr0n:   Greetings! I can confirm that the survey is real and is sent to Wargaming America. Sorry for any confusion, we'll still hand out candy 

dance210:   Hello LewdPrincess,   In order to receive a prize, a player must participate in at least 5 battles during the March Mapness tournament. If you played in less than five battles, you are ineligible to receive a prize.

I dont play this f*****g game and your tournaments   Hello salepobednik,   I understand that you are not satisfied with the results. However, the rules state that a player must participate in at least five battles in order to receive a prize. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause; however the rule stands as written. If you have any other questions, please let us know.

Yoott: LET THE HUNT BEGIN!!!!

dance210: Hi guys,   They are still looking into the lag / ping issues. At this time, there is no further information on when this issue may be resolved. We apologize for the inconvenience.

dance210: An update for those who originally bought the Mutant 6. All original owners should see an M6A2E1 mission in the Mission tab. These missions will give you a x5 XP on the M6A2E1 after the first win of the day bonus. The x5 XP is only available for the M6A2E1. You will be able to complete this mission 30 times. Missions are valid now until June 30 2017 at 4:19 am PT / 7:19 am ET.

The_Chieftain:   Fears of misuse/excessive use (and the occasional fatality) have resulted in a prohibition by the city on San Francisco PD from carrying Tasers. As a result, the next step up from baton or beanbag round is a .40 S&W. Every time this happens, there's cries of police over-reaction, and the SFPD union counters with "Well, let us carry Tasers then, otherwise instead of a slim possibility of death, you get a very definite likelihood of death" and the city commissioners say 'no.' Oddly, most residents of SF would prefer the police carry Tasers, but SF government is not entirely representative, and highly politicized, for a city government.   As an aside, the city's policy enacted a couple of months back explicitly bans the police from shooting into a moving vehicle, again, as a response to past shootings. Under any circumstances. That includes if there is a large truck deliberately running over folks watching the fireworks at the Embarcadero, let alone someone trying to run over a cop. SFPD's union is now suing the city in court.

dance210:  

dance210:   Hi guys!   I was just informed that there was a system-wide error with the tournament admin system. This error caused the system to roll back to a previous point and could have resulted in some loss of data - namely, the players added / removed from rosters as well as if a team has been confirmed.It seems as though the lost data would have been from the past day or so.   We apologize for the inconvenience. I plan to allow registration to stay open later, in case teams need to make any last minute changes. If there is anything I can do to help with any rosters that may have been affected, please send me a PM or email tournaments@wargamingamerica.com.   Thanks!

Mezurashi: Please send a support ticket to the customer support team. I'm sure they'll be able to help out.   You can submit the ticket here: https://na.wargaming.net/support/

Njourour: Closing thread.   Please refer to this thread = http://forum.worldof...sale-april-1st/

Lert:   This is the exhaust:      

Lert:     Aren't these the engine intakes? Makes me wonder what these are for when these exist.

dance210:  

dance210:   Hi!   If you click that link, it will bring you to a Google doc that has the standings. With 913 teams, it is not feasible to display the standings on the forums. The standings are also linked in the first post on this thread.

dance210: Hi guys!   All discussions regarding the Mutant 6 sale should be here. Thanks!

dance210: Thanks guys for your patience <3   I've submitted the requests for the prizes, so they should start going out (if they haven't already). There are quite a few of you, so it may take a while before everyone gets paid.    If you don't receive your prize by end of day today, please email tournaments@wargamingamerica.com and I will check on it.   Any questions or issues, please let me know

Lert: So I'm planning to add a scratchbuilt stowage rack to a model StuG I'm working on. I can find multiple styles of stowage rack online:           Now, my question is: was there a specific design, or did the crew just weld on whatever they could in the field?

dance210:   I may have slightly underestimated how long it would take to get the prizes done. I forgot that this tournament was very manual.   Prizes should be going out tomorrow morning
