Computer Built... new tank goals... T.V. Show
Well, have the comp completely built... took quite a while to figure out all the internal wiring... but it's done! I went from ~25 fps on the worst settings in world of tanks to between 80-150fps (it bounces around a lot) with the max settings on! :D I will try to get a pic up tomorrow!
I have two tank goals that I am setting forward for myself... foremost I need to get to the 4502 ASAP... at an almost fully upgraded tiger atm, but I need to get the 4502 before the patch... If I can do that I will be well on my way to getting all the heavies... and secondly complete the T95 grind (currently in the T-25)
Oh, and been watching "Shameless"... really good show! :D

Just waiting for the parts to get in...
My computer parts will arrive today... here's to hoping that everything works and I'm back to tanking soon! *says a silent prayer to the tech gods*
-Thanks to the girlfriend for the Antec 900 case
-Thanks to MagicSquid for designing the comp for me(if it doesn't work I know who to blame :P)
-Thanks to Newegg for having cheap prices compared to frye's :D
As far as Tanks goes...
I really want the new T-15(moreso the T-25 but they don't have it yet) it's a little PZ38 minimaus clone

Laptop dead...
Well, my Laptop is almost officially dead... running in safe mode atm... crashing and going to blue screen if I run anything with graphics requirements.. The infamous Nvidia 140m which they would only fix if broken has finally fried itself in my machine and they would only do these free fixes until March 2011... not worth $600 for a 3 yr old laptop imo... So probably won't be on WoT for a while =(

Artillery complaints.... and Clan complaining.... of course.
Just a general bitch post about artillery... I just feel it does not portray what artillery really was or how it was used... I would rather artillery shoot 10 rounds at a time or 10 times faster and do a tenth the damage... get that real barrage feel to it.... I was driving my IS-7 earlier today and I got splashed to death... 4 splashed no hits, 100% health gone... Arty in this incarnation is nothing to do with suppression and simply raw damage. Maus' should not be able to be 2 shotted... etc...
I love my Clan and I love the guys who I play with... but damn... dreams of Grandieur, we are fighting for things we can't hold and envisioning conquests we can't achieve... baby steps, get a solid army before invading the other country.

Well, here we go.
Well a little about this blog, it will be World of Tanks focused... little detail into clan stuffs and the general stupidity of my clan lol..... beyond that I will try to pick and choose clan battles, tanks, and general world of tanks issues to highlight.
