What is the Challenge? This is a Challenge which encompasses multiple areas of CC, while most clan challenges only focus on team and 1v1 games. This, on the other hand will focus on a mixture of team matches and other areas rarely (if ever) seen in Clan challenges.

I would like to first note that 3/8 of the challenges are team based, while each other group is completely its own entity. That being said, the point of this challenge was to test the overall abilities of a clan rather then just the team games to show the versatility of the players in said clans for a more unique and (in my opinion) more overall enjoyable experience

Remind me again what a clan is about?? Team games? Since when has a clan been about anything else? The whole purpose of a clan is to play team games with people you know and trust. Not some terminator games, where someone will hang the game, or some other BS.
A Clan is a group of players that wave around a banner saying "look at my clan". However, the entire skill of a clan cannot be based on simply 1 type of game, but all. Singles, triples, terminator, EVERYTHING, as it is all apart of CC.

Kotaro has it right, if it helps you sleep at night Bruce, think of this as the track and field of clan challenges. you play separate events, but they all add together for a total goal and besides, if 7 other clans wish to participate knowing the given settings, does it really matter what it entails? as long as players are having fun, thats all that matters
Hmm, how exactly is Terminator gonna be different from Standard, if you're only going to count wins? I would expect some kind of adjusted scoring (though it will never really differ from standard anyway).

That is a mis-type, im going to fix it in a sec, Terminator is counted by number of kills, NOT wins
I am rather against why individual games should play a factor in clan events. Clans have traditionally been based on team orientated challenges I would hope it would stay this way. We all have our own individual prowess we may be confident of but what we do as individuals should have little bearing upon a clans status. A clan is about a collection of individuals not about the individuals themselves. I think maybe more team challenges would be good.

Often in wars, there would be a fight between the two sides greatest heroes in a 1v1 situation. For example during the Trojan War, Achilles the Greeks best fighter went 1v1 with Hector the Trojan Champion.
I don't see why people are objecting to this. If you don't want to be involved don't get involved. I don't see people objecting to the 1v1's played in other clan challenges they are not involved in. This is just supposed to be an opportunity to get multiple clans competing over a variety of events.

It might surprise some ivory-tower players that most people are not playing exclusively team games (even when they're in a clan!) Challenges are only based on team games because they're the easiest to set up - only two contestants necessary. Multiplayer games require multiple clans. Until recently that meant trying to convince some clans to do more than play team games, a difficult task indeed.
Best of luck to everyone involved, I look forward to playing in a future edition with Generation One.

If Natewolfman is running this, why no Tourney rights ?
1. There was no public tournament thread 2. Is was done via private invite in the CLA 3. If rights are given to a TD to do this, then the rights to the Clan League should also be given (A proposal around this will be made) to the Clan Directors (both). Clan Tournaments are not currently allowed.

You're quoting mythology as reasoning for individual challenges?
(At least I hope you're quoting mythology, and not just the movie "Troy")
Obviously people can do what they want, but I still think it's a bit silly to play a majority of individual challenges when the basis is Clan vs Clan. An individual challenge says nothing of the skill of the clan at these things, it only says something about the particular player the clan has chosen to play.

well then, maybe you and your clan, "THE BOOK CLUB", should join this... you know, show the rest of us pompous banner wavers what a real clan is about...-0
p.s.-come on kotaro, you know you cracked a smile!!!

I think everyone is missing the point, that as this challange (for clans) may have individual games in it. It's the overall point's that matter for your team(clan).
