The first Public Test of Version 9.14 is now officially closed. Wargaming thanks everyone for participating and we now have to wait for the second test server and see what changes come.
Decept1on from Wargaming Europe staff is gathering feedback on the Official Forum. This is an official data gathering and will be available until the 18th February. The questions he placed are:
Nickname/Clan/Clan Position
Top 3 thinks you don’t like in World of Tanks
Top 3 thinks you don’t like in World of Tanks Clanwars gameplay
Why do you play World of Tanks? What things you like the most? What do you receive from World of Tanks?
Remember, this is a good way of us players to show what we dislike and what we like in the game. Who knows, maybe Wargaming will start listening to the community? So the more of you that leave feedback, maybe, just maybe, will be better for all of us.
Get ready for the Boot Camp Challenge, where you risk yourself to great battles and great rewards. By great rewards we mean 40 gold per day, and that’s it.

So, get out there, alone or with your friends for the daily challenge of getting peanuts from War Gaming. I’ll be honest, at this point it’s better to go and play Armored Warfare, you will get more gold out of them for World of Tanks.
They could at least give us some equipments, credits or even some personal reserves as a reward together with a low gold price. I know, 40 gold is worth a lot for some players that never buy gold, but it’s not even enough to buy a garage slot. Can’t Wargaming once in a while do something that will actually make the player base happy and thrilled to play the game and think “this mission is really worth my time”?
Let me know your thoughts in the comments and remember what Wargaming said: Show that you’re as fit as ever and earn some gold for your good perfomance. go run and burn some calories!
Ever wanted to ride a tank? What about the legendary Tiger 131 from Bovington Tank Museum?
For those interested, the Bovington Tank Museum is selling raffle tickets where you can win a ride in the Tiger 131 on Tiger Day. Cost is 5£ each ticket, you can buy as many as you want to increase your changes to win.
If you plan on going to Tiger Day on 30th April 2016, and would love to ride the Tiger 131 just visit the museum page and get yourself one. Because of last year success, the museum decided to give more than one prize this time, so here what you could win:
1st Prize: Ride on Tiger 131
2nd Prize: Ride on Leopard
3rd: Prize: Ride on Centurion
You can buy a raffle up to 29th February and the drawn will be on 4th March. The winners will be informed shortly after.
In no way I am trying to sell more tickets, just got one for me because I am going to Tiger Day and I though some of you might want to have a go too.
Everyone knows that Wargaming decided to change how the Top of the Tree Specials work. The new idea is that from March, it will be the players who choose what tank, from a class, will be the next Top of the Tree, and if you vote in the winning tank, you get access to special missions.
Up to this point I liked the idea of getting special missions, but then decided to have a look at it and see how it’s doing up the moment and analyse all the small details.
It’s been a week since you can vote, it started on 8th February, for what Tier X Heavy tank you want for Top of the Tree, and I decided to make an analysis of current results. I was surprised with the number of votes, in one week only 12,053 players actually bothered with voting.
Looking at the average number of players that are currently active in the EU Server, we get a number as high as 763,000 players that currently play World of Tanks (source from wot-life.com). What can we see from this?
If you just started reading about the Saumur Tank Museum, don’t forget to have a look at Part 1 and Part 2.
On today’s post I will be talking about the Curiosities Hall.
The museum has one hall I found really cool, the Curiosities Hall. In here you will find a known tank in World of Tanks, but what is most interesting is the other vehicles you find here. This hall is full of concepts that were build for a specific end.
