I did it last minute. So, admittedly I probably overlooked G1. I've had them in prior top twenties.

Ouch...twice a list without Atlantis....

You're still ranked 15th overall, so I wouldn't worry about a few individual voters! In 41+ game challenges this year you guys look to be 3-0 with wins over the F400 1-year ranked teams 24, 8, and an unranked. That is a great performance so far in 2013 and if you keep it up you'll move up the ranks rather quickly! However, you're a fairly new clan and since you aren't yet listed in the F400 that is probably hurting some of the votes as well, though I'm sure you'll be listed soon with all the wars you're playing (especially if you beat RA).

On the other hand...we are 4-0 in 2013 with wins over the F400 1-year ranked teams 12, 16, 11, and 27 while being ranked ourselves 11th (2 year) and 7th (1 year) in the F400. However, we are not even ranked in the coaches poll.

Just trying to say: don't worry about the rankings on this list. Just keep having fun and playing well

Thank you for your kind words Bones!
If we both keep winning our clan wars...it definitely will help our PR.

They were tough. In the past 6 months they beat TNC and lost to OSA. I feel like in the moment, they are a Top 10 clan.

Thanks,

I was surprise to see LHDD at this position. We'll prove you right

You didn't put your own clan in the top 20?!

by **angola** on Mon Sep 16, 2013 9:43 pm

You can't vote for yourself, though I think I'd put us at No. 3.

by **TheMissionary** on Fri Sep 27, 2013 12:05 am

We appreciate the honorable mention.

by **Chariot of Fire** on Fri Sep 27, 2013 10:06 am

Missionary has a position? Well I never.

Yes, unfortunately I chose to be stuck in the most boring of them. :lol:

Updated this list. It'll be due at the end of the month, a PM will go out to all known participants and will also include any of the "unknown" clan contacts unless they bow out officially, or provide the contact person. A few clans (such as TFFS) had a contact who has since left, and will now revert back to the unknown catagory for contacts.

This one, due to the comments received in the last Coaches Poll, will revert back to the original "you can include your own clan" in the votes. This will be made clear in the PM to all primary contact voters.
Thanks,
IcePack

Is it correct that ACE still can't be included here until we appear in F400?

by **IcePack** on Mon Dec 09, 2013 12:07 am

nope, ACE can be included in here and has been eligible since they were started. Most didn't put them on the list either because a) considered them new or b) forgot to include them. they were mentioned in the PM that went out, so people wouldn't forget to consider them.

by **MoB Deadly** on Mon Dec 09, 2013 8:09 am

Haha the only way I know if clans are good are not are using YOUR f400 hehe. Unfortunately I dont know much about any other clan other than TNC. I would not be a good fit for voting, I will try to find you a representative though!

by **Bruceswar** on Mon Dec 09, 2013 8:36 am

1. KORT - New blood and fresh life, Strong showings so far. Won CL5
2. TOFU - Slipped down to number 2 with the departure of Seul
3. IA - Still holding Strong and playing well. Nearly took CL5 Premiere
4 TSM - Still holding their own and doing well.
5. LoW - Have rebounded a good bit. Lets see how CC4 turns out.
6. ATL - Moving up quick some with nice wins. Can the pull off the upset over TOFU?
7. PACK - New blood and some new wars going. Lets see if they can get re energized and move up again.
8. OSA - Up and down as always, but tough still
9. RA - Moving up the list with some very strong showings. Now they gotta hold serve.
10. ACE - Moving back up the list. A few more wins and they will surely go higher.
11. FALL - Dropped due to others overtaking them, not so much their play. They did have an early exit in CC4 though.
12. G1 - Looks like G1 is back and ready to kick ass

13. OTP - Slipping a bit as of late. Looks like freak needs to come back!
14. AFOS - Falling quick. The Wheels are about to come off?
15. ID - ID is pretty quiet right now. I bet they make some noise soon.
16. PIG - Also slipping a bit with a few losses, but they will come back strong I bet.
17.TNC - Some of the great wind they had has been let out. Do not not sleep on TNC though, as they can still be really tough!
18. MD - About the same as last time. Keep waiting for that big win.
19. FOED - About even with last time. Can they rebuild to what they once were?
20. RET - Sticking around this spot. They need a big win to move up further.

These are just my opinions so feel free to chop them up.

by **Chariot of Fire** on Mon Dec 09, 2013 8:42 am

1. TOFU. The F400, F41 and Clan Page says it all really (despite what Bruce might think).

by **iAmCaffeine** on Mon Dec 09, 2013 8:58 am

Rank 1. TOFU
Rank 2. KoRT
Rank 3. ACE
Rank 4. IA
Rank 5. TSM
Rank 6. ATL
Rank 7. LoW
Rank 8. PACK
Rank 10. OSA
Rank 11. FALL
Rank 12. ID
Rank 13. G1
Rank 14. PIG
Rank 15. HH
Rank 16. OTP
Rank 17. AFOS
Rank 18. TNC
Rank 19. MD
Rank 20. RA

And just to fuel the TOFU vs KoRT debate, both clans have added new blood lately, but I think TOFU's additions are stronger than KoRT's. Although I was actually surprised by some members of both clans who I personally wouldn't have said were good enough for the top two clans, but who knows, I could be wrong.

by **Dako** on Mon Dec 09, 2013 9:01 am

Bruce — being #1 requires a bit more than getting 1st place in CL5. More like being #1 on all clan ratings site-wide ;).

by **Donelladan** on Mon Dec 09, 2013 9:26 am

I think he has right to put whoever he wants as number 1, it's his vote isn'it ? Arguing about it seems useless... everyone will vote and we'll know who will be number 1 at the end.

by **Dako** on Mon Dec 09, 2013 10:40 am

I don't mind him putting any clan as #1. But the way he explained why he did so is what threw off previous posters in this thread. This justufucation of his acitons are so uncalled, looks like he wants to redeem himself putting KORT at #1.
