Aranka, I only invited Group A clans because I know they are active and will get teams together. With Group B clans, a few might not even be active other than a couple players, and they shouldn't get a vote if they are not going to compete. It's just quicker and easier to go with Group A.
2x 2v2 Strategic Medium Earth was done on a vote. I believe it was 4-2 in favor of the traditional templates over switching the templates to less traditional maps and/or settings.
Hey people, I d not take WL or the whole clan league too seriously :). Always keep in mind: 4 players of a clan are enough to participate in JSA s clan league. So, all results are based on those 4 players. If a clan sends 11 players, and i m talking about different persons and not just one player and 10 of his alts, this is not rewarded by any means. So lets just take the results of this clan league as what it really is: a raw indicator that gives a hint about how strong a clan is, not more.
Good point Mosquierto. But is there any better way to do it? I have thought about doing Ineffable's system in the past, but have never done it. But I think this season, once this clan league is started, I will start talking to clans and see who would be interested in another clan league with 6 clans. I would like as many clans as possible to compete in the clan league. That is why I will always have the 4-clan system. But if enough clans are intersted in doing two at the same time if they are staggered a bit, I will do the 6-clan system as well.
JSA, as i say: if a WL player creates 3 alts. And also creates his own 4-member clan. And if we further assume he is a really brilliant player. He then will qualify as best or at least one of the best clans, if he minds to participate in your clan league. But i dont see a really better way to do it AND keep things simple. I.e. how can we guarantee we dont play versus alts of someone else? Not possible.
So, i think we just have to take this into account and try not to take this clan league thing too seriously.
If there is a suspicious account, I will not let them play without telling me an older account to ensure that the older account is not playing in the clan league for a different clan. That is why Master of Strategy was not allowed to compete for [GG] last season, because he did not tell me his older account. I can't guarentee someone can't get an alt in, but I will say it will be very tough to get one in, especially in Group A.
20 has 4 players to join: timi, beebljuice, ultimaratio, machiavelli. We will have more than 4, but we reached the minimum number.
After we win Group ZZZ, we can beat the winner of Group A to clear up any uncertainties, unless of course you simply let us wipe the floor with Group A's clans right away.
