It shouldn't be calculated into the ladder. There should be a separate system for each. Make the clan challenge ladder more based on challenges that help kind of see how the league might play out each season. Kind of like exhibition games.

This is where the DEPTH of a clan plays more of a factor, then a small portion of players on a small set of clan season games. Take Fat mermaids for example, they have some strong players, if they knew they were going to play Thota in week 3 of clan season, they could save up there games and play their strongest players against us in those 8 games and could beat us, as where you take a clan challenge of 80 games and all in the total clan have to participate, well, it shows the depth and filters out more of the luck factor.

voted mostly by clan leaders and lads who knows what a hell they are talking(with exception of me and maybe Luba if Empire let him vote...). all those formulas jp finds are funny and exciting, but game can not be measured through statistics...
ps. i agree with blitz!!! TOFU is nothing but bunch of low life losers who paid jp(some male strippers were involved, Dakos personal escort if word is right) so they can feel good about themselves even thou they all have small "penetration tools"(and yes, i mean drillers for oil which price will go rocket high again... oil price, not drillers price...)

Of course the league was "manipulated" because THOTA performed so poorly. And of course the league should have a less weight, because its so insignificant to THOTA that they didn't feel like putting the best foot forward. Saving up games is a good strategy too -- the question really is why the hell did THOTA not save up its games as well? Everyone plays within the same rules blitz.
With the exception of BpB in the semis, I find no basis for your so called "manipulation". I'd like you to point me to any clan in the top 4 of Division 1 who has concentrated their play on their top 5 players during the regular season. Just because its theoretically possible, doesn't mean that people do it. People have better things to do than play in 70 games for the sake of winning an online league.
Frankly, I find your attitude of trivializing things that you are not good at sickening. We KNOW THOTA is a good clan, what you guys have achieved over the last 2-3 years is very commendable. But do you really need to stroke your ego continuously?

the minute thota dropped to 3rd place without losing a clan war it became a joke.
the minute legion was named 18th i never laughed so hard in my life
this ranking system is a big FAIL.
reptile wrote:Is everyone so biast and un-fair just to keep their clan ranked higher by saying that a challenge of 40 games should weigh much more than a Season of over 100 games just because they can not do as well unless they can make all the settings fit their clan? The point of the CLA is to see how well rounded clans are against as many other clans as possible. I know a few of our challenges, we ended up playing basically the entire challenge based on the other clans preferences which were complete bull in some cases. Now how can you say that is fair? the CLA has preset rules, if you think you are good enough then you should play and do well. If you are worried about your little clan ranking falling, then dont participate.
reptile wrote:And whoever said that the CLA League was run poorly and was saying the ladder was crap ... i have a question... what are you still doing in the CLA then? i disagree with the ladder, but love the CLA League because it lets all clans have an equal chance at each other instead of just hiding behind their ranking.

Dai_atan wrote:Actually you're wrong, it does't give every clan equal footing, it is split up into divisions, which is one of the reasons the Ladder suffers because the divisions are supposed to represent skill levels of the clans playing in them and therefore mean that the guys who do the ladder weight their results differently.
For the CLA to give everyone an equal opportunity it would need to be an open format that meant every team competing, no matter what division would play in one large pool.

Maps... when did i say anything about maps. I said preferences and/or settings!!! lol big difference. And there are clans out there that wont even accept a challenge unless everything is done by their rules. i will not mention any names, however if you have not experienced this then i won't fault you for not understanding.

I hate spelling things out, but sometimes you just have to The CLA League gives everyone an equal footing more than any challenge does is what i am saying. Otherwise try and talk THOTA into accepting a challenge from anyone that is not in the top 5 clans (I am sure there are more clans, but just to use them as an example). Look into it and you will find that LoW was thrown on the floor like a dust rug for accepting a challenge from a clan that might not have deserved to play a top clan... is that what an "equal playing field" is to you dai-atan?

I am not saying that by any means Dai_atan lmao have you not been reading anything here and just been playing with the crayolas on the keyboard again? If you read my posts here i am actually arguing the ladder, but thanking jpcloet for his time and effort into it. Likewise i am saying that i like the CLA League and think it is enjoyable. And how can i say "agree with me or get out" when i am not even a CLA rep let alone run the thing LMFAO again!!!! Quite frankly, i dont care if you think i am an ass, but just to set the record straight... the feeling is mutual. Strange how you would pick me out of everyone and think that i am saying something even close or similar to that.
If you are worried about your little clan ranking falling, then dont participate.
i have a question... what are you still doing in the CLA then?
Also, i may be a bigoted fool as you put it, but at least i dont change around what ppl say just for the hell of it and then call them names. but while we are at it....
By my previous post i was merely trying to point out that i have read ppl's posts so many times about 8 game challenges in the CLA when the absolute minimum for division 1 anyway is twice that. also wanted to mention why ppl want to keep the cla to no weight compared to a clan challenge is bull.
(keeps them ranked where they are.. not because of their performance specifically, but more so because it allows for only top clans to play top clans ... therefor not falling or falling minimally on the ladder ... its like limit holdem... what is the point when you have no limit hold em. I better clarify that before it gets switched around though.. not that someone should fall to last place if they lose, just that there should be an opportunity for other clans to be ABLE to move up in other ways than only thru challenges set to specific preferences. My previous post was not to attack anyone in particular, just to make a few simple points clear that ppl dont seem to grasp. if anyone was offended other than this dai_atan guy then i apologize. It is a privileged to be attacked like that from someone who has so few posts though...
Oh, and by the way, am i allowed to express my opinions Dai_Atan? what if i highlight mine in red? ... or is that too much?

freakns wrote:it all started one lonely saturday night... i have just finished raping BPR for 4th time in a row, and decided to take a walk. my phone rang. ive answered, it was unfamiliar voice with heavy Russian accent offering me huge amount of money. firstly, i was skeptic. i mean, out of nowhere someone is calling me, offering me 10K euros per night for easy work. why me? why not offering it to someone else? then explanation came out. he told me most of his clients are heavy CC players whod like nothing more but to watch striptease from someone who just stripped them on battlefield. so, naturally, i agree to try it out.
my first show was easy one. i have installed web cam and open skype acc(some of you might know me as CCQueen) and waited for my first client. it was some american, his nickname was Big Drink Small Brain Horseman. not sure who is that on CC, but i have my doubts... anyhow, he asked me to go on all four and wriggle my behind infront of camera... from his side ive heard grumbling sounds and something like "yeah, wait for me to jump onto you... you little pony..." crazy shit... unfortunately, i havent receive any payment for this as Da-Ko(name of my employee, again i have my doubts who is that from CC, but cant put my finger...) explained he needed that money to pay up for skype acc... and it went like that... ive received strange request from numerous clients(like some guy called Fruitcock, he asked me to attack Greenland from China, saying "those little bastards are everywhere, im sure they can attack Greenalnd... then went off when i start saying how he got all 6s while defending Greenland from Chineese attack...")... anyhow, after receiving no money at all for my stripping services i decided to take the matter in my own hands and told Da-Ko i will not work anymore if i dont get any money... he agree it is only right and told me to go visit his business partner in Hong Kong who is guarding my bank account... i went to Hong kong hoping i will finally get my money... escort waited me on airport and escorted my to their boss club called The Orient Flying Union, telling me its a club for gentleman to relax... friendly face welcome me, and introduce him self as Chariot of Ice(again, i think its someone from CC...) and gave me a drink. and to cut long story short, after that drink i fainted, got into some lazy bordel in Mexico and now im nothing but cheap whore for guys calling themself Chuck(although he was gently, but doesnt understand my current employee Lx is not looking friendly on love letters i got from him...)
sad story, indeed
