Hey folks, big news today! In light of many of the concerns of the community, Pixonic will be holding a Community Roundtable on 21 April. This is a dial-in conversation via Discord with you, a small number of other players (around fifteen), and Pixonic developers. It's mean to be a free, open, and frank discussion about your thoughts and experiences with the current state of the game. There will be several opportunities to participate in what is sure to be a lively and spirited conversation. 1. Pixonic will be reaching out to some of the more prominent members of the player community 2. Some seats will be available through application at Gepard Diary
3. Some seats will be available through other social media 4. Players can nominate themselves on this thread for participation.
The ProcessAny player may nominate themselves on this thread. Just reply, and say you want to be in the running! Nominations will close at midnight Wednesday, 12 April (EST, GMT-4). On Wednesday, we will create a poll for all nominees which the community will vote on. The top two finishers in the poll will be eligible to attend and participate in this Community Roundtable. There are plans in the works to have either a recording, transcript, or notes of some kind following the event. Good luck, everyone!  |

I'd like to be in the running. I have a different perspective than most on this forum, and diversity among participants is what will result in the most useful information from Pixonic. Also I hold a PhD in Immunology, which is relevant because I've trained for years in the art of asking meaningful questions.

I'd love to speak with Pix. Are there any requirements or time where we would chat?

Y'know, not all of us will be selected, so why don't we get a representative and compile all the important questions we have and he or she can table those to Pix?

I don't know if I will be able to attend but some questions I have for them are:
1) any plans when they do the new GUI that they will move the controls slightly closer to center because a lot of people have trouble moving left
2) did the freezing problem with the las update delay the implementation of tanker que on Android and when can we expect to see it?
3) how do they look for tankers because there are many strategies that range from ditch as soon as the match starts , just stand there or worse impede others, to just run one bot and quit. Which of these are they able to detect?
4) what happens if you wind up in tanker hell and feel that it is undeserved is there a way to appeal?/(worried because of the freezing above)
I know people have tons of questions about the mismatchmaker but I feel pix has already heard them along with the new bots/weapons and next event questions.
Maybe a new thread to collect questions people have and you can ask them in the roundtable?

What is the definition of a prominent member specifically? So does that mean you don't know? I get this feeling it will not include a diverse group of pilots. Seems easier to have something written up and submitted by members of the forum. |

I agree with having one player representative armed with questions from all of us.
Why make it more complicated?

This is for a small number of individuals to have a frank conversation with the developers. I'm not saying crowdsourcing some questions from the community is a bad idea at all, but that's entirely at the discretion of the people attending.
Honestly, that's a pretty good platform to run for "election" on, for sure.

Would cover concerns that represent the whole player base Just to be clear, are you standing for election? Because otherwise- while I completely agree with you- this is becoming a thread hijack. |

Dredd77 - regarding the form, do you want to know my real name or just be game name? We already have your real name, Engelbert Peabody. Being serious, I'll leave that to your discretion. Pixo signed off on that form, so I imagine they'll want a real name. But if folks are uncomfortable with that, I'm not gonna think twice about John Smiths. |

(worried because of the freezing above) This is somewhat detectable in code (it honestly depends on the error that hangs your system) -- There is actually some fairly cool tech around this, and a few of the tools I have used in the past were great at integrating with our live and debugging systems. |

First off, thanks Wiki Forum and Dredd for the opportunity to have a forum voice included. I think it's a great opportunity for our community.
While I do not want to be one to be speak to Pix, I do want to suggest to the candidates that:
(1) We should keep our concerns focused on the biggest problems (MM and Tanking imo), and not try to lead the convo down too many rabbit holes. I would rather have a few key issues be focused on and addressed, rather than a whole laundry list of smaller issues, as (like in life and in War Robots) focused fire will kill the biggest threat.
And (2) I would also base my vote on candidates that I am confident would put forum/game interests above their own selfish motives.
I see some good candidates above, and have a few others in mind that I hope will put their name in the hat.
Cheers.

I agree on all points, especially thanking Dredd and anyone else who helped organised this chance to speak with Pix. |

Whom ever it is, I would like it expressed to pix. That a separate hanger based system is needed to keep the interest of long term players who enjoy various levels of gameplay and robots. Even if it exists outside of any ranked TT league system. Players are at there happiest when free to experiment and mess around. The current system makes it way too serious for a lot of people to do what they enjoy.

OH OH, if they have a Michael Caine one I want to do that "some men just want to watch the world burn" --- I would have to tank from when I got selected till I got to say the line! |

I definitely think it should be a couple selfless Brainiac Heroes with clipboards of the most pressing concerns about the game. No need to spam Pix with a bunch of petty horse「dookie」.
This is too good an opportunity
to fritter away.
