December Tournament Schedule!

BigDaddyLaxative: Hello Tankers!   Below is the preliminary schedule we have planned out for the month of December.  As always, all of this is subject to change.   Some important bits: We have increased the time between rounds and stages to 5 minutes to avoid any timeout issues (no invite bug) that we have experienced in the past.  Minutes between battles will remain 2 minutes. Like Gold, Credits and Free XP will be paid out in the same fashion where the number of battles contributed to your team will determine your split of the prize. After the 22nd of December, we won't be running anymore tournaments due to the holidays.  We'll pick back up with the start of January 2019! Registration will now close 1 hour prior to the tournament start to provide enough time for brackets to be published.   12/1 to 12/6:   12/1 - 2v2: Saturday Duos!   SCHEDULE Registration Start: 11/28 at 18:00 PT | 20:00 CT | 21:00 ET  Registration End:  12/1 at 13:00 PT | 15:00 CT | 16:00 ET Tournament Start: 12/1 at 14:00 PT | 16:00 CT | 17:00 ET   RULES 2/14 Format  2v2 Tier VII only 8 teams per group Cap reduced to 120 seconds!

We've changed all of the mission conditions from "Once per account" to "Once per day."  This way, you are not required to complete every single one to earn enough tokens for the Garage Slot. Blocked Damage seemed to be least completed mission, so we've drastically lowered the threshold. Again, these are very simple missions as we don't want to create some that would warrant a different play style or how a player approaches the tournaments.  Also, the prizes aren't crazy good either, but its nice to get a little something if you didn't manage to qualify for a reward in a tournament.    Missions: Mission:  Tournament Master Restrictions: Once per account Conditions: Collect 8 Tournament Mission Tokens  Slot x1   Mission:  Destroy Enemy Tanks I Restrictions: Tournament battles only Must be in Tier I-VII Once per day Conditions: Destroy 6 enemy tanks in any amount of battles.
