       Weird Weekend

       What a weird weekend I had tanking.  A lot of the tanks I
       usually do really well in, I was struggling, while I had more
       success in those thanks that I normally have a hard time with.
       I had a terrible time with the T21.  I want to love this tank
       sooo much.  I should be doing well in it but I'm not.  38 games,
       39% wins, 410 avg exp per game   :confused:  I can't tell what
       it is?  I'm assuming that its because it was basically a brand
       new crew.  Got out-Chaffeed by my opposite number a bunch of
       times too.
       Meanwhile in high-tier medium land... I was having pretty good
       success in my Pershing and Patton.  Got an Ace tanker badge, and
       100th scout medal in my Pershing, killed a tier X british heavy
       in my Patton to earn the "Expert UK" rank, and significantly
       increased winning percentages in both tanks.
       Hopefully things go back to normal.

       Ditto. Won every match I was in running lights.  When I switched
       to Tier 8s and up, major losses.
       One match on Mal Standard 9 Tier 8s charged across the open
       field towards the RED positions..and all died, inflicting ZERO
       losses on the OPFOR. I seriously think these were driven by
       seven year olds that got a hold of their parent's accounts.
       :palm:
       Tiers V-VII were bascally 60-40 Win/Loss

       weekend until today

       And it was really still a mediocre game. While fail platoons
       have been frequent, I'm part of the problem I think. I haven't
       enjoyed the game as much since 1.3.

       It was a very...odd weekend, to be sure.
       Had some amazingly good stretches where we'd ROFLstomp the reds
       15-5 or even 15-1, followed by stretches where the green team
       was full of windowlickers. And that's not even counting how many
       times RNGesus decided "Sure, your APCR has 240 mm of
       penetration, but I'm gonna have it bounce off the side of an
       un-angled tank with just 70 mm of armor."

       You know when you get into a game and you look up at the team
       queue and you see that 1 or 2 tanks just didn't make it in? they
       are grayed out. Well i had at least one in every match this
       Saturday morning. It was odd. I wonder if they were playing the
       afk rubber band game and it has now been caught on to.

       I had that happen to me in my E-75. Had a near point blank shot
       on T95. Switched to APCR to hit a pesky E100, but he moved and
       the T95 went past me. Turned and fired... so dang sure that I'm
       gonna nail this guy...and BOUNCY BOUNCY! Reloaded, and fired
       again. Bounced. T95 kept moving away. Finally hit the guy, and
       then I get tracked by Arty, then E100 pops up, and kabloom.

       I did OK this weekend, but was busy and didn't have too much
       time play.
       Did have a first when I managed to track an artillery in Jag
       8.8, that was... novel :)
