I have not even tried the races because I was too busy finally getting all of the modules on the Standard B. Might make a video or something tonight but I think I am doing ok in it. I usually get about 4 kills in one before my team shits their pants and gives the match away. God yesterday was so bad.

Don't bother with the races right now:

This is exactly how races go, but I was always on the red team.

Fifth race, someone on my team didn't even load in before the countdown finished, so winning was automatically impossible.

I quit immediately. This is unreal.

Edit:
A few hours later and Random Battles are just as incomprehensibly loving bad. The endless losses are enough to make you dress up in Wehrmacht uniform to complete the experience of giving up.

Spazzed out on the beer and listened to what The Offspring had to offer in the garage. Curiosity piqued, I checked them on Wikipedia. The singer is 53. I mean yeah I certainly remember them from 20 years ago with all that "Original Prankster" poo poo but loving hell I'm as old as the singer was when I first heard of them :corsair:

I had a mother who is deaf and a sister who loved that band. So for Christmas my mom thought nothing of it and bought her a badass sound system at the time when she was 13. Guess what band she blasted 24/7 ? If you guessed The Offspring you would be correct! Throw in other bands like Blink 182 and the sort and you hit the jackpot on how much I hate The Offspring. It is sad enough that I already know all the lyrics to all the songs because that was my young / teenager years. This is well over 15 years ago!

Overall the show is pretty cool in the garage and yeah I am going to get the crew in my garage when it comes out.

I would not have mind Sabaton. That band (and the tank!) owns.

I remember not liking the offspring because they were pop punk, and I only listened to good bands that no one has ever heard of.

I'm doing okay in races but random battles are so bad. I keep getting the teams full of the kind of hang jawed nose pickers that click battle and hide in base all game. Its kind of worth though. I unlocked the T57, E50M, and WZ-111-5a with all the 5x missions. I'll probably use the rest of the 5x on my T95 or buy the Obj. 263 since I need to do TD-15.

The scavenger codes literally stopped working for me for some reason. Really weird but I'm stuck at only 21 tokens so either I messed up something or the game just doesn't like me.

Random battles have me at a 50% w/l for today. Haven't done racing but up to yesterday I usually was on a team that won. The T50 seems to fastest, most controllable, and has fast enough dmg output to win and kill everything at the end.

I miss the old chaffee races though. This is less a race and more who can make it to the end with a full team who can auto aim correctly.

The game isn't about rushing to tier 10, you can play whatever tanks you like. If you've been away for awhile, then you'll run into a ton of new content (tanks, maps, game mechanics, etc.)

WoT is leaking into WoWP. A guy was complaining about his team sucking so I said GG in all chat. He PMed me after the battle and I tried to troll back but my heart just isn't in it. All I could do was picture some angry divorcee mall security cop poop-socking his way to try to win a free airplane because this game is the one thing going well in his life.

World of Warplanes seems to be harder to get banned from than World of Tanks. There is a much lesser number of bannable mods, a low player base, and automated talk bans before game bans.

I'd assume that one would lead to a chat ban for whatever amount of time. Unless they do it a lot. Then actual ban of some sort.

On that note :rip: allchat. I ate my only chat ban ever for spamming "HO HO HO! MERRY 911! Who wants to sit on Osama's knee?" at the start of every round that day.

Sounds right. I also suspect anyone who spends money on the games even semi regularly gets at most a slap on the wrist unless they really pull some poo poo.

Was going through some Emails and I saw Wargaming sent me some spam awhile back so I decided to log in and check my account out after like 6 years due to curiosity.

Logged in and was given 5mil credits a Beta Badge and some free tanks as well as a bunch of other poo poo I don't even know what it is for yet. I'll probably give the game a shot again in the lower tiers and check out these 'new' trees to me. Since the last time I played there was only 4 or 5 trees.

Huh. I usually get called "Kid with mom's credit card". or "I guess you are just as Pansy as your clan tag" or whatever.

But I got a really funny replay saved up for when I get home tonight. Ever played one of those games where not even 30 seconds pass and you get one rear end in a top hat screaming in chat saying that we lost and we should uninstall the game? Well I was playing on my SU-130PM and snuck around the back bitch slapping idiots for 510 alpha damage every time they got tough and made dumb decisions. At the very end I was like "Nice loss everybody".

Never got hate mail from the guy but when I upload the video you will see. I am going to make it obvious to watch him bitch because that was half the fun watching him rage.

"This is supposed to be a CW-only tank why does it suck so bad? We DEMAND you make it better even though we didn't care when we couldn't get one!"

Also, pretty sure this is a big step toward buying bonds for more than what gold costs. Or they'll be *extra* evil and make you buy gold to convert to bonds at a 3:1 ratio, so 15k gold for 5k bonds, which would make the tanks cost 45k gold instead of the 25k they're 'SKUed' at.

Before watching the video I am about to post please know yeah I am gonna miss some shots and maybe make some bad plays. But let's instead focus on one guy in an IS-3 completely lose his poo poo in a battle he deemed "A loss" nearly one minute into the game.

But first. Let's take a look at the battle report. I didn't do too bad. I at least survived and only got one shot from a Senlac.
