example THOTA 3-0

beat clans of untouchables, bushwackers, dragoons, and tied dragoons, so 3-0-1

and no jr tigertribe was not a clan and most our members knew nothing of it, that was more a few players vs a few players

i agree, or perhaps just keep a table of which clans have battled who, and who won, i dont know if making it some sort of 'league' really translates well. it would require a uniform challenge setup which is practically impossible.

As long as its over 40 games i think they should all be recorded. But anyways of the 10 clans only 3 have responded!!

1. I think the scoring system you have set up is not going to be a very good reflection on how the clans stack up against one another. I'm not sure exactly the best way to do it would be, but I think an ideal system would include more than just one factor. Possibly total clan challenge game wins, losses, challenge wins, etc. I'm not much of a numbers guy though, so I couldn't tell you the best way to go about doing it. I think you have misunderstood the scoring system.

2. Ranking the clans to begin with according to player score is completely lopsided in my opinion. Those individual players reached those scores in so many different ways that to be honest, player score is not really a good way to separate clans. I mean for all we know my lower ranked G1 teams could kick the pants off of THOTA someday, but then get soundly beaten by The Untouchables two weeks later playing against player of the same rank. The scoring system is the same scoring system as CC employs at the moment.

3. In order for the League to have any chance of sorting clans by skill "as a clan" there must be a set format for the clan challenges. You can't have one challenge of all doubles games stacking up against challenges of triples/quads or singles games. It won't show you who is actually better than anyone else. You need a controlled format that everyone is forced to use in order to have a basis to gauge the performance of each clan. Hmm, yes I see were your coming from but most clans us the same system and that is starting 20 games each. I think its going to be nearly impossible to get all clans to use the same format!!

You've done an awesome job of getting this thing started, hulmey, I just think it needs a bit more polishing before it will be where you really want it to be.

so a challenge has to be at least 40 games in order to count? and why arent the bushwackers on the list? and why does the clan have to be in the list? why not just put all clans on the list, and just record wins and details.
