WGL: Soup story, AMX 13 57 Giveaway and Jingles!

It's known that I don't care much about Wargaming League, mainly now, after getting my AMX 13 57 video targeted by one of their hosts that didn't have any basis for his accusation and all could have been avoided if he simply contacted WG staff first, I'm just gonna leave the print screen here:
Link.
Why my video was the one targeted and not another Community Contributor video I have no idea, but have to point out WGL personnel are not real WG staffmembers and Wargaming was very fast to come to my defense which was quite nice of them.
I don't have to answer to WGL personnel and I also don't have any contractual obligations with any of them but my respect lies solely with WG staff. And, if things were handled in a proper private manner I actually would have kindly accepted the request and added the information to my video and this would never have been written. Still, no hard feelings taken. Don't mistake Latina passion for Caucasian rage.


But back to the point, during the Grand Finals 50 AMX 13 57 tanks will be given away for those who share their predictions worldwide, more information can be found on the Grand Finals site but it wasn't working quite well so took a printscreen:


And the best part of it all, the Mighty Jingles just announced on today's "Mingles with Jingles" that he will be a guest and commentator of the event, its the first time that will say this: I'm excited to watch a WGL event!

      What does Caucasian Rage mean?

    4. PinkyDK13 April 2015 at 22:24

      Being angry against white people I think...

      Caucasian rage doesnt means rage against caucasians, but the way Caucasiams reasonably rage against things that they disagree, often getting to the point of cultivating hate towards someone who disagrees.. Rita used it as opposite to the Latin Passion. As a Latin person, like Rita, i know very well how is that Latin Passion, latin people defend their ideas fiercely, and will not step back even one inch on their beliefs until they are proven wrong, but from the moment the conflict is over, hard feelings wont remain. And i know that, for sure, Rita doesnt have any kind of prejudice against anyone, no matter if white, black, asians or wathever.

      You're welcome, Rita. I get upset when ppl try to put words into someones mouth. That guy (Jew Shekel) was totally unfair on his statement, like he was trying to turn everybody against you. And for that WGL thing, i hope i will be able to get one of those tanks with the WGL skin (yuck!), i will gladly record a video of me selling the tank, and send it to you, just for the amusement of the WGL guys, lol!

      P.S.: Call me PzBarkhorn, i must rename my Wordpress account to reflect this

    10. Unknown15 April 2015 at 04:30

      Sounds like backpedaling to me.

      And Bernardo, how was I unfair? Rita said something that I took to be derogatory towards the White race. Unlike most people on the internet, I don't let that slide.

      My advice is to leave race out of this blog altogether. A totally unnecesary comment with ambiguous intent.

      Jew Shekel, why would you think that term is derogatory? Its ok that u didnt let it slide, but it would be fair if u had actually tried to figure what she wanted to say before implying that Rita have any problem with white people. As Rita said, "the evil is, indeed, in the eye of the beholder". Read again my comment above, and you will understand the meaning of the term "Caucasian Rage".

      BTW: "Nice" profile cover you have at G+.

    They seem desperate to promote their WGL stuff. I guess this is the premium content they want to focus on according to a previous Q&A.

      I think they are doing completely fine with a french premium light tank even if it's for promotion of WGL... Would be nice however if the camouflage came as optional.

      No, you got it wrong, You can buy it for money in packs(with useless shit included so more money squeezed from players) in the premium shop , or try your luck and betting the teams final position on the score board

    Jingles will do a great job at commentary. His insight to the history of the tanks and his wit will do him well. Thank God it is on Twitch so he won't get fined if he curses once or twice live :P

    And that is why nobody (hardly anybody) watches WGL because under that facade of idiotism it turns out they are in fact idiots. Nice one Mr Maxfield, promotion is not your best subject, is it now?

    I, for one, am on Oliver's side. The tank was designed solely to promote the Grand Finals and the WGL, and it would've been great if that was mentioned in the video. Esports is a big part of any game, and motivates a lot of players to continue playing in the long run, as it gives them someone to look up to and to want to be like.
    I don't understand your constant hate towards WoT Esports, care to explain?

      How about when you front a program your conduct in public has to be exemplary, regardless of what you think may have happened, and approaching someone in the belief they have erred has to be done with the utmost care and consideration.

    2. Unknown13 April 2015 at 18:07

      What you didn't understood is that when I got access to the press account the tank didn't had the WGL skin whatsoever and Wargaming didn't gave any indication that this was going to be a WGL tank when the video had to be made, and the time was limited and it passed by Wargaming approval weeks before it was made public. Oliver was accusing me of changing the camo of the tank on purpose to hide the WGL skin when was never the case, I don't take kindly when a official WGL host criticizes my work publicly without any basis, he didn't cared to contact WG staff. Also, I never said I hated WoT Esports I just didn't liked the lack of professionalism.

      Benjamim Williamson,
      It's not even about WGL it's about that some people behaves like a total "input word". It's just pathetic and another example that wot as cyber-discipline no more than a bad joke.

      ps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6DEgywU-hM, to you Benjamim Williamson and Oliver (after he got calm and reasonable answer from Rita).

    4. Muppetti13 April 2015 at 19:57

      You might have overreacted a bit. After all, Oliver apologised right after you told him you didn't have the info about WGL stuff related to the tank. Maybe a bit impolite approach from him though.

      Anyway, good to see you promoting the Grand Finals a bit. Also nice to hear Jingles will be doing some casting!

    What is this "new Attack/Defense mode" that is mentioned on the flyer?

    ReplyDelete

    1. Muppetti13 April 2015 at 20:17

      It means that battles are played in maps that have 2 cap circles. Defending team has to protect both of those bases, so it usually cant be done just by camping behind one. And the attacking team has to either cap one of those bases or kill all enemy vehicles.

      You are allowed to use either 5x T8 + 2x T7 or 6x T8 + 1x T6. Duration of single round is 7 minutes.

      In BO9 (standard matches) your team first attacks 2 times and then defends two times - after that map changes. If score is tied (4-4) after two maps, there will be tiebreaker. (the team that was better as attacker gets to choose side)

      i was really interested and excited about the amx 13 57 until i heard about all this crap i thought it was just going to be added to the gift shop next to the su 122 44 when the event weas running and would stay after it but from what i understand it will be a prize or in a bundle so they have stabbed my interest in this machine to death so im now gonna wait for the japenese tiger i dont think they can possibly ruin it.

    Jingles as commentator? I might actually watch it.

    My main complain about the tournaments is that we always see the same meta tanks every match(happens also in other games as well).
    Why not mix it up a little? There's more than 100 tanks in WoT, why only show the same few tanks every match? Choose a set of tanks for the match(maybe by random pick? or even chosen by WG staff), and let the competing players choose among the list of tanks.
