       Monthly Special Events - Brainstorming 
       By: Corbantis Date: November 3, 2015, 6:58 am

       Hi All,
       We're looking at revamping the monthly events (you know the ones
       you get prizes for). We need your input on the following:
       1) What types of Contests appeal to you (platoon style,
       individual competition, etc).
       2) What is the best way to improve participation (short of my
       suggestion to Staff and BoD to start tazering folks behinds)?
       3) Communication modes - What is the most effective way to
       communicate these events out to the entire clan?
       4) Prizes - What types would you like to see (WOT codes, WOT
       Jinx items, T-Shirts, Amazon Gift Cards, etc)?
       5) Level of difficulty - contest criteria too easy, too hard, or
       challenging?
       Any and all constructive feedback are welcomed.
       Ruggers, your feedback must be given while sober please. Thanks
       :mooning:

       I was thinking of running a Saturday "Premium 8" event in the
       training room where any premium 8 tanks will be allowed,
       except.....If there are 10 or more players per team, each team
       will be allowed to run two tier 6 (premium or non premium)
       lights each.
       Instead of the best of 7 battles, it would be a "race" to 7, so
       even if a team were 0-6 there would still be a chance to win.
       I'm thinking this will keep the players amped up for the whole
       duration of the event.
       The maps will be played in the order listed in the traning room
       and repeated if necessary. To get better in WOT, we shouldn't
       pick and choose maps.
       Instead of having captains pick platoon mates, players will be
       automatically assigned to teams in the order they sign up. The
       even numbered sign ups will be on one side and the odd numbers
       be on the other, so there can be no claims of favoritism. Of
       course, there will still be the need for two team captains to
       heard their respective cats.
       Oh yeah, premium ammo can be used.
       This shoud be it. I'll keep adding if I think of something more.

       Soooooo, i dont have to give feedback then!!! :superdrunk:
       Only thing i might adjust is starting the competitions on
       Thursday or Friday rather than Monday/Tuesday.....i seem to have
       forgotten them by the weekend (with all the other events,
       platooning and general mayhem) when i would have more time to
       devote to putting up a good pic.

       I have several ideas for events and how to contact folks.
       Sadly, I was out of the office yesterday and have a TON of stuff
       to catch up on, so it might be a day or two before I can get
       them together and posted.
       :sad:
       So stay tuned, I guess ...

       I would like to see events where I can participate even with my
       night owl schedule. Contests for most damage done etc. It's hard
       for me to platoon in the early evening when most events take
       place

       Agreed -- we need to have a series of times available for events
       in order to accommodate all schedules.

       Here's an idea i had when the SU-76i was released.
       a tank bounty hunt event.  You pick a popular tank (Tiger) or
       maybe even a series of tanks (All versions of the Tiger) and
       have a contest to see who can kill the most of them over a
       particular time frame.  You could go on  the honor system or
       require screen pics.

       With regard to passing information out to everyone, is it
       possible to do mass mailing using a Personal Message within the
       site?

       Yes we can send out mass notifications to emails and I also
       believe PMs....
