Is the T-14 the T14?  The dash is throwing me.

It's sad that this 'contest' is still going on, rewarding chance rather than skill.

Quick question, what do you mean by "add the game name in the email"?

Can you submit one battle per tank or just one?

You mean the chance someone on the team will do better than you and get the rewards?  Dont buy it neither should you.

I ran two matches with 1200 exp points apiece on a T14 today, single-handily won both games for the team and didn't get any medals.  Kinda wack but it is what it is.

The chance that someone will have a better MM result and get stuck with many low tiers.
The chance that he will come across many tanks having the opportunity to damage multiple targets but actually contribute little.
The chance that RNG will favour him and award him "sniper".
Etc...

They should base it on EXP or damage dealt, its current design is indicative of how poor a player the contest designer was.

If you look at the people who win these contests they tend to be average.

I haven't entered a contest before.
Do you submit your best single game points or the total game points over the course of the 3 days?

Best single game.

As for it not rewarding skill, I'd disagree, To get 43 points in T1 Heavy requires skill.

It means you need to put your player name in the email

You can enter all three tanks,  but you can only win in one category.

Unfortunately we need the garage shot to verify your submission.

The Event runs through Thursday,  and as soon as the results are processed they would be posted.  Probably early next week.

I had another question relative to the calculation of "Destroyed tanks", is it calculated for the number of tanks destroyed or just a general stat taken into account if you have that slot filled in end - game menu?

This is my 1st time for this competition. I have 11 points, and if the above is on per tank basis, I'll get 16.

Do we need to include a screenshot of all three tabs in the final screen at the end of the battle?

It makes more sense to me to include a screenshot of the "personal achievements" tab since that has all the spotted/destroyed/damaged info on it.

heh, i once ran across the field on malinovka with binoes and camo net in my d1. i came out with 10 or so damaged, a few spotted, a confed, and steel wall, and a few more spots and i believe sniper. survived with the equivalent of 1 hp. epicness.
