I once got a gump because the DO of WW from I guess around 3 years ago thought that an applicant had created a second account and gave me a gump for approving it. When I explained it was the life partner of a member who signed up my gump the DO was awarded a gump and mine was removed. :D

Gump story time! Cool

 

Yesterday both the 3rd Corps channels and the VG channel took a bit of a hike across Teamspeak.

 

How may this have happened you may ask?

 

Well, Patamon described it as something is wrong with my mouse as he jumped into channel with me at which point 3rd Corps had jumped down Teamspeak. As we attempted to correct the issue all of sudden the Vanguard channel had gone down to the Mordhau channels with us in it.

 

With Hemphop and Warlohn jumping into the channel we had ourselves a good laugh and adjusted the channels back.

 

I would say this would be a well earned GUMP ^^

 

Feel free to show Patamon some love with a comment on his glorious award Beer

Huh, had a feeling something was off, just couldn't put my finger on it.

This explains a lot.

 

Well done Patamon!
And congratulations on your first administrative gump!

I'm glad you didn't kill any members for this one.

Gump Medal 65174 awarded by Colt

Mistakenly got mad for winning. During an intense match of Carrier Assault on Lost Islands, after being killed and the enemy armed the MCOM with mere seconds left in the match, Kenisama threw his headset on the ground, stormed away from his computer, only to return fuming over a PERCIEVED lost and "showed his fourth point of contact" during the debrief only to find out that we had in fact won the round.

So.... in World of Warships the current Clan Battle season is underway, it's 7vs7 and as the Shotcaller it's my job to ensure people are where they need to be. I'm also our Air Craft Carrier player.

Our worst map is called Greece, and for once, it was going our way - I have one of hte highest damage potential in our team and if it's going our way I can easily swing it well and truely in our favour.

However, the Air Craft Carrier itself is very easy to kill if it get's spotted.

Well, guess who forgot to move it.

Guess who made it even worse by not only not moving it but by trying to then turn it around to run away (rather then reversing and tanking the damage)

Yup... both me, we lost the game in the end and it was entirely due to missing the damage output :(

As a CO made my mistake by accidentally promoted a PFC to Major. And sadly unable to go back and demote him so had to go ask my DC to correct it XD

 So as I was learning to do administrative tasks I managed to, when trying to assign a member to a Squad, move the entire Squad into the Corp tab on the TAW website. Then I was wondering where the squad went off too and asked my DC to help me find it as I thought I'd deleted it

 

The only way this was fixable was by showing fealty to KingExotic and praying he fix the mistakes

 

The funny thing is I just awarded a gump to a member of the division for grenading himself and another team member

 

Thats karma I guess

So this is how I got mine...

 

My HLL EU CO (Lucutus) vaped the life out of his PC and request a leave until he got it fixed.

So we went on with the leave and I put myself in the CO position for administrative purposes...

 

So Luc managed to get his PC fixed - faster than anticipated - after a good week, So I went on to remove myself from the CO position... I thought...

 

Looking at the battalion I still was the CO, so something must've gone wrong, let's try again!

 

Wait where did al my admin stuff go? Where is my admin tab on the homepage?

 

Turned out that I successfully removed myself sas DC the first time and as CO the second time.

 

Had to reach out to my CLC to fix this for me Confused

Well i think this post needs some bumping. So here is my favourite gump.

Lesson learned don't brag about something if you nor absolutely sure you can achieve it:

 

AntiStreik made a bet that he would battle Natalino for the Vanguard record of launching with 249 members or more out of Vanguard. He bragged about having the "Power of Battlefield and it would be a piece of cake." Unfortunately he lost the battle and was smacked in the face with cake, and was defeated with only a 121 members when launched. As promised, and part of the bet was an award would be given out regardless of breaking the record. A brand new tab and special medal for breaking the record, or a Gump for failing OR being beaten senseless by your opponent. Seeing that the record was not broken, and Natalino is still in the fight, A Gump is proudly awarded to AntiStreik for Juuuuuuuuust coming up a little short of the record.

For managing to wrongly promote a member hitting the prestigious 90days in the rank of PFC a promotion to LCP would've been correct, however, this member managed to jump straight to major, Stormwolfe managed to fail in promoting the proper rank and to it being the same rank as himself demotion was no longer possible and the help of TFO was required to fix this administration error, for this Congratulations Storm you WON the big GUMP!
