00:00:09,020 --> 00:00:10,080
In today’s episode

3
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:13,410
we’ll be talking about the reasons
behind changes to the Friends List,

4
00:00:13,410 --> 00:00:16,900
announcing holiday contest
and launching Crazy Weekend.

5
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:19,660
Hello tankers!

6
00:00:19,660 --> 00:00:23,960
Earlier this week a new update was released,
and it affected the Friends system.

7
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:26,689
If you didn’t catch up on the news yet,
here’s the rundown:

8
00:00:26,689 --> 00:00:29,329
A limit was added to the
maximum number of friends

9
00:00:29,329 --> 00:00:31,570
- it’s now 300 tankers.

10
00:00:31,570 --> 00:00:35,191
This change doesn’t affect players
who already had more than 300 friends

11
00:00:35,191 --> 00:00:37,399
before the update was released, BUT…

12
00:00:37,399 --> 00:00:40,390
We cleared the current lists
from the inactive players.

13
00:00:40,390 --> 00:00:43,530
Names of all tankers, who haven’t been
in the game for more than 6 months

14
00:00:43,530 --> 00:00:48,129
have been removed from the Friends Lists
of all players with more than 300 friends.

15
00:00:48,129 --> 00:00:51,260
If you have more than 300 
ACTIVE friends in the game,

16
00:00:51,260 --> 00:00:53,320
all of them remain in your Friends List.

17
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:56,800
In the future, players who haven’t
entered the game for more than 1 year

18
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,960
will be automatically removed 
from ALL Friends Lists.

19
00:00:59,960 --> 00:01:00,960
And in reverse:

20
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,860
if you haven’t entered the game for more
than 1 year, your Friends List will be empty.

21
00:01:04,860 --> 00:01:08,600
Of course, many will wonder -
why do we even need to do that?

22
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:12,460
The answer is simple - it was done for
optimization of the players’ database.

23
00:01:12,460 --> 00:01:15,950
The database has a lot of information
about who is friends with whom,

24
00:01:15,950 --> 00:01:19,300
and right now the server needs to
check in real time every request

25
00:01:19,300 --> 00:01:23,460
regarding a player’s rank, who plays
where and if the tanker is offline.

26
00:01:23,460 --> 00:01:25,840
Most of this info is very outdated.

27
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:27,030
Before the update was released

28
00:01:27,030 --> 00:01:30,689
the average number of friends
for most tankers was 30 or 40,

29
00:01:30,689 --> 00:01:33,560
and that is why we think the
new limit is more than enough.

30
00:01:35,580 --> 00:01:39,280
Video of the Week, or the
Tanki Challenge, to be exact.

31
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,990
Last week the V-LOG crew
offered you a challenge -

32
00:01:41,990 --> 00:01:44,900
to jump straight from this ramp
and land on the flag.

33
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,619
And here’s the team that
completed the challenge first:

34
00:01:51,619 --> 00:01:53,369
Congratulations to the winners!

35
00:01:53,369 --> 00:01:56,310
All tankers on the team
will get 33 thousand crystals,

36
00:01:56,310 --> 00:01:59,420
or 100 thousand crystals for the whole team.

37
00:01:59,740 --> 00:02:03,920
We also received a lot of videos where
you didn’t land right on top of the flag,

38
00:02:03,930 --> 00:02:05,409
but they were awesome too!

39
00:02:05,409 --> 00:02:09,919
Next week you will need to record a real,
not-staged video in Green paint

40
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,120
while using Ricochet to
destroy enemies in a cool way.

41
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:14,260
Good luck!

42
00:02:16,500 --> 00:02:18,060
On Monday, December 11th,

43
00:02:18,069 --> 00:02:21,660
we are launching a new contest
- “15 seconds to New Year”!

44
00:02:21,660 --> 00:02:24,910
TO veterans probably remember
the contest from past years.

45
00:02:24,910 --> 00:02:28,580
You need to record a video wishing
a Happy New Year to fellow tankers

46
00:02:28,580 --> 00:02:31,190
and make it no longer than 15 seconds.

47
00:02:31,190 --> 00:02:36,980
The best videos will win crystals, Gold Boxes,
Tanki branded t-shirts and coffee mugs.

48
00:02:36,980 --> 00:02:39,730
You have 2 weeks to send in
the video for the contest,

49
00:02:39,730 --> 00:02:42,020
so make your video original and interesting!

50
00:02:44,460 --> 00:02:47,340
A couple of months ago our friends
in the Russian office launched

51
00:02:47,340 --> 00:02:51,340
a video contest with a special prize 
- a visit to Tanki HeadQuarters!

52
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,360
The winner has finally arrived,

53
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:57,319
and it’s sochi-areda - winner of
many Tanki contests in the past.

54
00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:01,180
While visiting the office, he had
a few things to share with the V-LOG crew:

55
00:03:01,180 --> 00:03:03,000
We came from Sochi, right?

56
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,420
It was +7 degrees Celsius 
back there, and here?

57
00:03:06,420 --> 00:03:08,380
Here it’s minus.

58
00:03:08,380 --> 00:03:12,319
As for computer games, I enjoyed them
and played a lot from the beginning

59
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,500
right when I got my first computer.

60
00:03:15,500 --> 00:03:20,040
Back then they were called Robotrons,
with black screens and green letters,

61
00:03:20,049 --> 00:03:24,129
some very primitive actions, then I wrote
my own computer game on Robotron

62
00:03:24,129 --> 00:03:26,900
and on Iskra - I think it was 
a Soviet computer -

63
00:03:26,900 --> 00:03:30,760
and then at some point I
found a link to Tanki Online,

64
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,380
and Lyosha started playing Tanki

65
00:03:32,380 --> 00:03:35,080
after he learned how to press
buttons on the computer.

66
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,420
Several times during the week

67
00:03:37,420 --> 00:03:41,250
this 6-year-old kid would get
Number 1 spot on a full map,

68
00:03:41,250 --> 00:03:43,470
and he played DM, you know.

69
00:03:43,470 --> 00:03:44,909
You ever placed 1st?

70
00:03:44,909 --> 00:03:46,360
Did you catch golds on your own?

71
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:50,519
I noticed there are a lot of tankers
who have high ranks in the game,

72
00:03:50,519 --> 00:03:53,020
and you can easily see it
by the way they play.

73
00:03:53,020 --> 00:03:55,489
And there’s those who are
practicing on beginners,

74
00:03:55,489 --> 00:03:58,870
which is interesting because it
allows you to research elements of Tanki

75
00:03:58,870 --> 00:04:02,620
that are not obvious when you play
against tankers of your own rank,

76
00:04:02,620 --> 00:04:06,310
because you can’t test anything
- you get killed in one shot -

77
00:04:06,310 --> 00:04:09,680
and here you have a right
to make a couple mistakes.

78
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,400
The first time I took part 
in a Tanki Online contest

79
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,820
was as Miss Tanki Online,

80
00:04:14,820 --> 00:04:16,930
because I had a female friend.

81
00:04:16,930 --> 00:04:21,610
I decided not to put myself in the contest,
but since she played Tanki Online too,

82
00:04:21,610 --> 00:04:24,610
I entered the contest under 
her account with my own video.

83
00:04:24,610 --> 00:04:27,660
Actually, it didn’t win, but it 
didn’t matter who won,

84
00:04:27,660 --> 00:04:29,810
because all of the submissions 
were pretty good.

85
00:04:29,810 --> 00:04:33,610
It’s hard to wish something specific,
since anyone can win the contest.

86
00:04:33,610 --> 00:04:37,280
But what’s most important I think
is the idea behind your video.

87
00:04:37,280 --> 00:04:41,280
It’s very hard to put many ideas
into a 30-second video,

88
00:04:41,280 --> 00:04:45,960
so your idea must be,
to put it simply, ATOMIC.

89
00:04:46,060 --> 00:04:50,620
You just need to put your soul into the video
and make it with an easy-to-understand idea,

90
00:04:50,620 --> 00:04:54,820
and it should be about Tanki Online,
first of all, and you will win, that’s all.

91
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,660
And what to do on the last weekend
of the year before holidays arrive to Tanki?

92
00:05:01,669 --> 00:05:05,160
Crush your enemies during the
latest Crazy Weekend, of course!

93
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,660
This Saturday and Sunday,
destroy enemy tanks and get rewards:

94
00:05:08,660 --> 00:05:13,250
400 kills or more will guarantee
that you get 3 containers

95
00:05:13,250 --> 00:05:18,259
Destroy 800 tanks or more and you will receive
5 containers and 3 days of Premium

96
00:05:18,259 --> 00:05:20,389
And those who make 2000 kills or more

97
00:05:20,389 --> 00:05:25,430
will get 10 containers, 5 days of Premium
and the Lion T-D protection module.

98
00:05:25,430 --> 00:05:27,760
Also, everyone who makes more than 800 kills

99
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:31,580
on Monday will be eligible for
a giveaway of 2 Dream Tanks!

100
00:05:31,580 --> 00:05:35,580
As always, kills are counted only
in regular, NON-PRO battles.

101
00:05:35,580 --> 00:05:38,009
Tanks destroyed in PRO-battles
will not be counted.

102
00:05:38,009 --> 00:05:43,850
This time we’ve made a special website
for keeping track of the number of kills

103
00:05:43,850 --> 00:05:45,780
you make during Crazy Weekend.

104
00:05:45,780 --> 00:05:50,050
On this site you will always see
Top 10 players with the most kills,

105
00:05:50,050 --> 00:05:54,230
and you can enter your name
to check your own progress.

106
00:05:54,230 --> 00:05:57,560
Just type a nickname and
see the number of kills.

107
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:02,039
Important: the info on the site
is updated once every hour.

108
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:07,220
Meaning that if you check your progress
right after battle, it won’t be updated yet.

109
00:06:07,220 --> 00:06:12,380
One more thing: the weekend will be
especially crazy on Saturday!

110
00:06:12,380 --> 00:06:15,900
For 1 day only 
in all regular, non-PRO battles

111
00:06:15,900 --> 00:06:22,200
you will receive Double Battle Funds and
Gold Boxes will drop 3 times more often!

112
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:23,720
Have a fun weekend!

113
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,300
That’s it for today’s V-LOG.

114
00:06:27,310 --> 00:06:29,099
Look for the hidden code in the episode

115
00:06:29,100 --> 00:06:31,920
and don’t forget to leave a like 
for new contests.

116
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:32,640
See ya!

117
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:43,400
Last week we asked you how many shots
it will take Smoky to destroy Hornet

118
00:06:43,419 --> 00:06:44,860
on the other side of the map.

119
00:06:44,860 --> 00:06:47,500
And the answer is…. 12!

120
00:06:47,500 --> 00:06:49,320
Congratulations to the winners!

121
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:50,440
And here’s the new question.

122
00:07:02,360 --> 00:00:00,000
How many damage points did the red tank get?
A: 682  B: 698  C: 703  D: 709  E :714  F: 721
