I'd like to elaborate on what Jakapoa said.

The medals have already been made for Canteen Crasher so it's too late to make a(nother) content maker badge.

The whole making the content medal a tier above the highest player medal (content is platinum, highest player medal is gold) was also a mistake considering how many players thought the plat medal was obtaniable and wanted to have it. I've heard people saying you can get the platiunum medal by getting all the stars which is not true.

For the next contest they've made the content (and donor) medals different than the player medals so there's no confusion there. Also here's the MM medals: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/126004564087406592/539610590184734733/unknown.png?

Also CC got a lot more content than anticipated, I wouldn't be surprised if the staff knew how much content was made for that contest they woulda asked for more medals.

Hydrogen told me to post these pics:

I reported this earlier, the time (Jan 2-3 depending on timezone) for the post should be around the ones on the linked pages (you will have to click "View comments & details" to see the time).
Also posting Hydro's reply.

Hydrogen:
the WIP stuck detector should fix that, that's a good test case you have
thanks

Shit broke, it's fixed now, I doubt it was hacked.

I decided to make my own version of this based on Hydrogen (none of comments have been posted by interrobang).

You are desynchronized earn a few more star or wait the next patch.

Uhh unless I got it wrong the website shows you having more stars than you actually do.

If that's the case then waiting for the next patch won't give you a medal, you're still gonna have to complete a contract or two to get 150 stars.

Is that better than max speed bushwacka + cleaners carbide? I was under the impression it was better than phlog pyro but idk if that included the damage from the angle you mentioned.

Oh and that's assuming cleaner's carbide doesn't bug out and stop filling the CRIKEY meter, which it usually does for me, in that case a buff banner soldier would be good to have with you just in case.

Was the wave 7 Botbash only 1 tank or all 3 tanks? (confused it with the other adv rottenburg mission) Could you do it with cleaner's carbide + bushwacka sniper (including a buff banner soldier to give you minicrits if carbide breaks?

Buchwaka with 100% crits and max attack speed took 1 minute 16.46 seconds.

Not bad at all considering it is a much more realistic scenario than 100% crit phlog all the time compared to the crit phlog side damage time.

You have to consider filling up the phlog takes quite a while on tanks while the cleaner's carbide can be filled in seconds so you only run out of (mini)crits for a few seconds. Well that's if the Carbide stops filling the CRIKEY meter for no reason.

That said I'm not sure if bushwacka is better than the sweetspot phlog though.

Ever since the Blue Moon Update, flamethrower damage versus a tank has been nerfed heavily. This is due to the flamethrower's ramp-up bug that causes your damage to reset to half every time your flame particle collides with world geometry (walls, ground, objects).

If you attack a tank normally with a phlog, you will suffer a constant -20% to -50% damage penalty. At max damage upgrades and with crit, instead of dealing 78 damage per tick you would hover around 39 - 62 damage a tick. DF isn't affected by this btw.

However there is a specific angle you can attack the tank with your flamethrower that results in a constant, maximum ramp-up. With this, you hover around 74 - 78 damage a tick.

https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1397969531

Standing in front of the tank and aiming towards the top at about an 80 degree angle like this, you should avoid the damage penalty. Notice the 76 above my ammo counter. That's the damage tick. Without crits and at max damage upgrades, you should be seeing around 24-26.

EDIT: Guess I didn't exactly provide a clear ansewr to your question. For Pyro, Phlog is superior to any other flamethrower/melee for taking out the tank -- with or without crit canteens.

EDIT EDIT: Just did a test run of Wave 7 Botbash's tank with and without the sweetspot.

Wave 7 Botbash Tank with 100% Crits (normal): 52.19 seconds

Wave 7 Botbash Tank with 100% Crits (sweetspot): 32.43 seconds

I didn't see for myself what happened when the CC tour went live but did falling trees actually became a legit thing? And if so, did anyone got a recording of it to share with the group so people can see for the laughs?

Don't think falling trees have taken down the CC servers (at least not yet) but they have taken down the TT servers several times, I think falling trees has happened 4-5 times these past 1½ years.
