Stupidity Redefined

I think this is worth a repost so everyone gets the pleasure of reading it.
Source: http://forum.wotlabs.net/index.php?/top ... end-money/So, I might have gotten my hands on an XVM camo account.
This guy has 14500 battles, 48.5% WR and 770 WN8 (recent stats 47% and 800WN8 before he abandoned his account).
The account has an IS-4, Obj 140 (with 33% WR after 40 games), WTF E-100, BatChat and T110E5 and an FCM 50t, Type 64, E 25, Slöwe and T34 as premium tonks (as well as a few low tier prems). This is a guy that deals 900-1000 avg damage in tier 10 tanks (except WFT, where he does 1700 because balance).
Anyway, if all goes well, I'll make a 500-game analysis playing on this account, to compare solo matchmaking to my main.
For now, I've mostly been doing account management, because... yikes...
1. tank management
This guy sold, rebought and resold multiple tanks, including premiums. Most notably 112 and JT88 are gone (could have used that JT88, since there is no gold or premium time left on the account).
His average xp, premium tanks, garage slots, etc all point towards heavy premium use during the account lifetime though.
There were 478 modules in his depot. I made about 6 million selling them.
2. consumables maangement
Full HEAT BatChat, APCR Lorraine, basically gold ammo on everything, but often also 15 or more rounds of HE. Nearly no AP. All gold ammo was set on replentishing with gold.
His consumables were interesting. Mostly the premium ones, all also set on replentishing with gold, but never in the same order. Repair kit was sometimes in slot 4, other times in slot 5 and often in slot 6.
IS-7 had the Russian engine overclock thingy, a normal Fe and a premium FE as load out.
3. equipment management
This guy was the proud owner of, I fucking kid you not, 74 camo nets and 42 binocs.
He did not own a single rammer, on any tank. Main load out was GLD, Camo net, Binocs (never optics) and often the suspension module, most notably on scouts and BatChat.
4. crew management
This is what the titles references too. This guy has 330 barrack spaces. They are full with duplicate and triplicate 100-150% crews. It's as if he never dismissed any crew, and when he rebought a tank, he'd just buy a new crew too. Likewise, all his premium tanks have seperate crews (Lowe has 3 crews, all trained for only it, so did his B2).
As a result, he has only 2 crews with 2 skills and 1 with 3.
Crew skill are halfwat decent, he does favour sixth + camo or sixth + repairs on the appropriate classes. But he has a hard on for clutch turning on the drives. On all the fucking tanks.
