I understand they are being factored into the clan ladder RPI ratings but i looked in a couple threads and couldn't find this being discussed.
IMO i think they should go down on record as a clan war. anyone else
jp said he was going to count it if they are 20 games completed vs the same clan
however, I disagree and do not think this should be counted as 20 games, as 20 games is too small of a sample and I suggest none should be counted unless it is at least 40 games or more against one clan, perhaps we should put this to a vote. With 40 games or more, more games the better tends to help measure skill a little more and evens out the luck drops and dice factors, after all, we all would like this clan ladder rating system to reflect skill more than luck, I personally would like it 60 to 100 games, but, to be fair, a minimum of 40 is a good measurement.

The above examples are based on extremes. Being a mid class clan, Nemesis, is a tough one and full of passionate players and friends. We are new, barely 1 years old.
The above statement suggests to put the clan challenges into wastebasket which has been played based on less than 40 games. No no no ! This has no sense.
The comment,
as soon as to be valid from now on, valid on the future clan challenges, then very valueable and wellcomed here. However, if it has sanction on previously completed challenges, then i strongly reject the idea. Then it slightly turns out to be backing of some specific clans who made their challenges fitting with the above criteria.
I have reasons :
1./ Such a rule/custom whatever had never been acknowledged, personally i have never known it before. As a nemesis clan member, it wasnt very tough for me to arrange my challenges in order them to have 40 games if i knew of such an application would take place. We currently have 40 and 30 games based completed two challenges. We won both and now going into a 3rd one which is going to be based on 32 games. What the above idea suggests now, it says me to send my one of very glorious clan challenge into wastebasket. This is very non sense man
The 30 game based one, we took it against I.B. and won 19 - 11. What is not reliable with this ?
You simply will ignore this challenge, thereby you will give additional points to I.B. and will clean some points from nemesis. No, you should not do this. Instead of doing this, count the challenge as 25-15 it s when you normalize the 19-11 score based on 40 games.
2./ In real life law suit, no new rule can fine any previous case !!! You should not cancel the previous challenges but must maybe set a rule for clans to have their clan challenges to have minimum 40 games to be valid
starting from today.
3./ Assume i had my challenges based on 40 games, then 1 year later, someone is going to come and say that 40 is not reliable. Lets make it 60. Then what ? Should i again put my 40 game based clan wars in waste again ?
Mate, your point is excellent, just you are missing only one point. You should not ignore previous challenges especially 30 games series.
