get 1million likes just like that.Dakiras: This had been considered previously, but since this special
is taking place in all regions we cover, the decision was made to
go for 24hrs.

realize, that WG actually already has most of that 1 million.
Theoretically even, they would get 1 million before 1st of May
anyway - so they didn't have to make any special at all. And
there is always someone who is discontent with the reward. It could
have been 3x for the first win of the day. Instead you guys want
free gold, prem tanks, two free days instead of one... just usual
greed, you want more, because one day isn't enough for you. How
spoilt you have become by the specials every weekend - there were
days (in beta and early after release) when everyone would be sooo
happy for all wins doubled.Dakiras: ^ This is true. We've been steadily growing in followers on
Facebook and will no doubt continue to grow. It was only because we
wanted to do something extra that we're bringing this up to begin
with.

the people who dont have the day off....Dakiras: We did x2 Exp for all battles before, and it was a terrible
thing. You get people who don't try hard to win because they will
get x2 on the battle regardless of result. This is why we do
victories.

constructive. First, the x2 xp for every victory is nice
thing to have, it always boost the xp and I, and believe many more
people, like it. The particular problems with this special I
will split into two parts. 1) In the countries that do not
celebrate this, it is a working day, so most of the special will
get unused. So the benefit will be really low, while you get 1m
likes which is a lot. 2) In countries that do celebrate it,
it is a day off. Now I am not sure for other countries but in mine
it is celebrated on the next way. You get up really early, (like in
5am) go out of the town (or in big parks in town) with
friends/family and make barbecue. You spend almost entire day
there, relaxing, playing around, having fun, you got the idea
right. So the point is, again, you get home late. Doubt the first
thing will be to turn on wot. So you will miss almost entire
special. So, all in all, the special is not an "insult". It
will just pass mostly unused. How could it be better? Give
players an option to "activate" that x2 xp in the next few days so
they can use it when they have time to play. Or, if that is
complicated just make it on the weekend. For example: To celebrate
1m likes and labour day you will have x2 xp on the 3rd of May.Dakiras: To answer your first point, this is additional to the
weekend special. It will be that many people are working that day,
which is why we're activating x2 for 24 hours so that more people
are able to play it in the evenings after work or anything like
that. It will also be additional to the weekend specials that we
normally run. Extra, y'see. :) We know that not everyone
will be able to play during this time - just like not everyone is
able to get the most out of the weekend specials - but we are doing
this as a way to give people who don't have plans on Labour Day
something they can benefit from. It would be awesome to extend it
further, but with the weekend specials starting soon after, we
decided against it.
xfalcon_, on 10 April 2014 - 01:15 AM, said: I certainly wont be playing. Double XP for all battles is an
extremely good tactic for bringing the noobs ( to put it
politely!)out. I just want to wish good luck to anybody who
does play 
Dakiras: Well, as I said above we have mostly stopped doing x2 on
every battle because these were counter-productive to the game
experience and meant that people didn't try to win as much. Since
then we've generally steered clear of the x2 even for defeats. :)
