I was just reading Overlord's blog today, and read the latest posting. A dev confirms, what we all know to be true. WOT is a Russian Biased game, and the T30 is terrible.
"10025 players expressed their opinion in the recent poll voting for the most power tank in-game of tier 10.
The vote results confirmed the superiority of German armor among top vehicles in Russian-biased game World of Tanks. E-100 got 41% of votes (4158) and Maus finished 2nd with 27% (2664) leaving behind the Soviet IS-7 with 23% of votes. The American T30 appeared to be a total outsider claiming tiny 9% of love.
The public opinion was rather accurate this time (no need for figures to prove/confront). Stat-wise Maus is slightly ahead of the others, even E-100. Apart from that everything is correct."

Not sure how the poll confirms a Russian biased game, though. The German armor is quite superior to the IS7 and rarely have I ever seen a T30 on the front lines acting like a true heavy tank.
Its not the poll that confirms the bias. Its the fact that the developer admits that world of tanks as a whole is Russian biased.

I read the blog post again and still didn't see that. All I saw was the Russian biased game phrase crossed out. Judging from his previous blog posts, Overlord was most likely joking.
I think if you look at the best vehicles though in each tier you're going to find a lot of Russian bias. E-100 might be the best t10, but 1-7 its almost all Russian. E-75 and IS4 are about equal, Is-3 and King Tiger are about the same, then its Russian all the way down.
It is not often that I encounter across myself when researching a topic. I found the following in a recent article on the uses of ethnography in virtual environments:
