I had a few questions regarding written submission.
If these are going to be posted on the forums if they win, is there a certain page/word limit we should keep to? I'm not sure what the max for a forum post is.
If these are going to be on the forums, should we restrict ourselves to purely text content? Or, will formatting in a .pdf, pictures and the like, be acceptable?
Thanks,
Veremus

a lot to me and not because of the gold.
My friends grandfather was a member of the 2nd Polish Corps that took part in the battle for Monte Cassino. This battle was and still is very important to all Polish people. The soldiers of the 2nd Polish Corps and later soldiers from other formations showed the world that Poles could fight and win against the Germans. It lifted the morale of Poles under German occupation back in Poland and gave them hope.

GeneralDirection: Here are my thoughts right now. I'll finalize this next week, as
well as the prize pool. We'll be creating a new sub-forum in the
tournaments section, similar to the Challenges sub-forum. All clan
tournament discussion will take place there in the future.

· Victory Conditions: First team to win 3 battles takes the round
· Team size: 16 (12 actives, 4 reserves)
· Tier limit: None
· Tier points: 90
· Only one team is allowed per clan (sub-clans and sister clans not included)
· The team name must be the same as the clan name
· All members of a team must be from the clan the team is representing
· No limit to the number of teams that can participate, outside of the above-mentioned clan restrictions

was under the impression that this one would be active until you
came out with "You, Ask, We Reply #9".
So where is this new thread that you are watching?
In case you read this, I have another question:
Awhile back, when WoT got 100k "Likes" on Facebook, the players were told that when they received 200k "Likes" we would get a special prize or bonus or something...can't remember the exact wording. The count is at 182k and rising. Will we still get a reward when the count reaches 200k???

World of Tanks News and Information\News and Information\Robert E. Lee Twitter Quiz [TIME CHANGE]
Link on message: #1332239
kllp101, on Jan 20 2012 - 22:21, said:
. I guess people will now be
unwilling to do twitter quizzes seeing that the odds of winning now
are (If you got everything correct), is much much slighter, at the
chance of 1/10-1/11 per question meaning statistically, most of the
people would get 200 gold for every 10 questions youve answered
correctly. 
I doubt that I will see anyone going over the 1000 gold range, and to do that, they have to be really really lucky
. Instead of twitter quizzes, maybe a
new contest of some sort and have 2 twitter quizzes running at the
same time to spread out the numbers
.

Step 1, buy tier 2, realise the only benifit is armor.
Step 2, work your way to tier 4, armor is barely enough.
Step 3, If heavy line, continue to suck all the way into tier 7. If light, remove rope from celling fan and continue to tier 5.
Step 4, Autoloaders on both lines. Realise life is worth living. Work your way up to the bigger guns.
Step 5, fit large autoloading cannon. Begin sweeping the battlefield, try to convince enemies life isnt so bad.
Step 6, Take the brunt of rage SPGs used to have to deal with. Try not to get top gun TOO often to dodge 'hacker' accusation.
Step 7, Procede with wrecking the game for everyone else. Make sure their first mistake is their last.
Step 8, Stop at AMX 50 120 or BattleChallion, retire early with 300 Boletors medals in 299 games...
Thats basicly how to use the french line, the only REAL downside to the french is you can never go anywhere alone thanks to that god awful reload. If you ask me, these things should have HUGE hitboxes and jam every few shots, just like real armored autoloaders...

like I am gonna talk about my ARL 44 , so i will make a good battle and post my video on youtube? or it would be like how to hide and what tactics i can use for it, as the second one will require more than a battle showing each tactic alone!

First in Video category: what do You mean exactly by using in-game replays? like putting a download-link in the video for the game reply? , or just to use game reply system while making the video? and i assume video will be more than just a good battle right?
like I am gonna talk about my ARL 44 , so i will make a good battle and post my video on youtube? or it would be like how to hide and what tactics i can use for it, as the second one will require more than a battle showing each tactic alone!
Thanks.
Gaea: The use of in-game replays was a suggestion, not a requirement, it
is not necessary to use the replays.
