sugarvalves [1963573] — Find out what the Glitter Bomb represents, how you should use it, and where you can grab one for free! Have you ever wanted to make your opponent glisten in the moonlight while simultaneously wasting a precious temporary weapon slot? Then head down to Otter Cove on Torn's southeastern coastline, where you'll find Glitter Bombs being given away for free until the end of the month! Pictured: Otter Cove, one of Torn's most famous gay beaches since 5 minutes ago when we decided that fact. Glitter Bombs are a harmless temporary item created as part of Torn City's recognition of Pride month. Contrary to what some would have you believe, Pride month was not created to turn your son into a femboy and force your daughter to listen to Alice Phoebe Lou. Pride exists to celebrate the history and struggles of the LGBTQ+ community while also serving to raise awareness of the issues they face today. Torn fully supports these goals, and while we respect the r

sugarvalves [1963573] — Find out whose comic won the Economist's Prize for May, which player nabbed a runner-up spot, and how you can improve your chances of winning the $100m comic prize this month! NomadZonka has won the Economist's Comic Prize for May after making our judge Lt_Wolf "chuckle like a moron" with their low-fi interpretation of the flying mechanics. Artist: NomadZonka. Larger Link NomadZonka takes home $100 million for their work, and a further six players will receive $10 million after placing in the runner-up spots. Yet again, we've seen a high standard of comics sent in recently, with entertaining concepts and high-quality artwork making Lt_Wolf's decision harder every month. But top-drawer drawing skills and good ideas aren't always needed to win over Torn's economist, it seems. "One of them was so bad it made me laugh, but I won't disclose which." - Lt_Wolf Artist: EarthFireMonkey. Larger Link Artist: Slockins101. L

sugarvalves [1963573] — Read our rundown of the new and improved rules for Dog Tags 2022, along with a few helpful pointers and reasons why you should participate this year. It's time to take tags and kick ass, and I'm all out of ass. The Dog Tags Tournament opens at noon today, the 20th of June, thus beginning ten days of damage, death, and detagging. But what exactly are the rules this year? What should you do and when? And why is everyone taking part? Let's find out. Tags Released At noon TCT on the 20th of June, every single player, staff member, and NPC will be assigned a tag. Each tag is worth a certain amount of points, and your task is to attack people and take their tags, with the goal being to amass as high a points tally as possible before the competition ends at noon on June 29th. The full rules can be read here. "I'm excited for the competition because it's a kleptomaniac's paradise." - Nemesis93 Tag Values Not all tags are made equal.

sugarvalves [1963573] — Find out how you can get your hands on a Platinum PDA, Dual Uzis, and a Rheinmetall by entering our summer community events and auctions! Torn's summer slate of Community Events is now open for entries, with two new contests joined by the return of a disgustingly familiar event in the form of Leslie's Freakshow. But before we tell you what these competitions involve, let's get straight to the interesting part - the prize pool. The first-place players in each of our three community events may pick a prize from the Gold Pool, with second and third-placed players able to choose from the Silver and Bronze pools.

sugarvalves [1963573] — Dog Tags 2022 to begin on the 20th of June. New rules clarified and updated. Public leaderboard to be introduced. Last week, Patch List #242 confirmed that the rescheduled Dog Tags Tournament will now take place from the 20th to the 29th of June. However, in the aforementioned announcement, Chedburn also stated that additional changes would be made to the event's format. The Torn City Times can now exclusively reveal the details of these amendments to Dog Tags 2022. Steal Tag Is No More! To gain tags under the original format of Dog Tags 2.0 , players would have had to choose a fourth option, Steal Tag, when ending a fight. This option would have guaranteed a tag upon defeating an opponent, whereas hospitalising, mugging, or leaving someone on the street would provide zero tags. The Steal Tag option has now been removed. All three of the existing options to end a fight will result in a tag being received. Players are now guaranteed to receive a tag if th

sugarvalves [1963573] — Blood withdrawal cooldown and life penalties halved from 13th-15th. Blood Bags and Empties not expected to rise or fall in price. Factions warned over blood donor day vulnerabilities. Vampire Christmas begins in just a few short hours, with World Blood Donor Day scheduled to run from noon on the 13th to noon on the 15th of June. During this time, all blood withdrawals will cost you 50% of the usual life, while also adding just 50% of the usual cooldown time. Here is a list of interesting things you may or may not wish to know about this forthcoming event. Sorry, You're Not My Type The blood of Torn's citizens may be saturated with high levels of alcohol, but once you burn that off you'll see that each of the eight major blood groups is represented. The most common blood type in Torn is O-positive, with 37.4% of people lubricated by this variant, hence why it's also the cheapest blood on the item market. Conversely, AB-negative is the rarest ty

sugarvalves [1963573] — Why should you buy your attacking supplies today? How many points were earned on Museum Day? Are BCTs about to crash? And which day is the best day to sell Advanced Weapons and Armors? In this month's Market Report, we investigate why attacking supplies might become costly over the summer, the full impact of Museum Day, why BCTs could be about to crash, why recent developments will affect the price of booze, and why you should always sell your advanced weapons and armors on a specific day of the week. ATTACK THE MARKET The postponement of Dog Tags 2022 left many players with excess attacking supplies on hand. However, with the competition now confirmed to be returning on the 20th of June, we may soon see a second spike in the item market as players prepare once more for this delayed event. "The Dog Tags postponement resulted in Xanax, Medical Supplies, and other war-related items to go through a weird stage of spiking on prices (such as Xanax hitting

Anomalousman [2534256] — Is every faction a dictatorship? If so, is that such a bad thing? Read Anomalousman's investigation into the leadership styles in play among Torn's top factions, and how each one succeeds and fails. Factions are the beating heart of Torn, which might be why looking into them uncovers so much blood. Factions govern the specials that drive our growth and boost our skills. They are our tribes for organised crime and war. Faction politics are like family politics - everyone's involved, and everyone has a strong opinion. But at the end of the day, the buttons aren't pressed by the will of the people. Ultimate power resides in one person. The leader. And most people agree this is the way it should be. How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Tyranny All factions are owned by a single person. Lock, stock, and smokin' high heels. The faction leader can take the vault, kick us all, and sell the faction - recent times have given us no shortage of e
