How many players use clans?

by **ManBungalow** on Wed Jul 24, 2013 1:32 pm

So...how many CC players are directly involved in a clan?

And how many of those are active?

I wonder if we could make the clan world more accessible?

by **Keefie** on Wed Jul 24, 2013 1:55 pm

The clan world is very accessible.

Anyone can get 10 players together and form their own clan, plus clans are always searching for new talent.

As for how many players, at a very conservative estimate there are between 1000 and 1500 active clan members.

IMO, clan world is what makes CC running. most of hard core players are here mostly because of clans.
now, how to make it more accessible? for start, clan directors should use their heads. now, we know that aint happening, then bring back flame wars. right now we are having threads thats closed if everyone isnt shouting "omg, you are so great", "no, no, you are", "no way, your clan is the best", "maybe second best because yours clan rules"
and when someone colorful as eddie comes along, he gets banned. im not sure how is that accessible...
let ppl talk. you want to talk shit? fine, do it, but dont go running to Lee when you are butthurt. stick your dick when your mouth are(errr... not sure if this is correct phrase... why would i stick my dick into pudding? *confused*)

to be perfectly honest i dont think i would even be bothered to log into the site if it wasnt for the clan scene, as for making it more accessible, how about stopping nut jobs chatting shit all the time :roll:

Well, the last update of F400 has 42 clans registered, and that's not including Atlantis, Agents of the Chaotic Empire, and several other new clans. So we're closer to 50 clans.

But that is including a few clans who don't play also. I think 42-44 is about right.

And 1000-1500 is not a conservative number. That's definitely the higher end.

Sounds about right. If I make a rough guess at the average number of people/clan I'd say 28.
28*43=1204

by **Gilligan** on Thu Jul 25, 2013 11:46 am

28 seems a little high.

by **Qwert** on Thu Jul 25, 2013 12:06 pm

i dont know for F400, i only know that in CL5 compete 33 clans , who average have 26,5 member.

by **Keefie** on Thu Jul 25, 2013 12:11 pm

OSA have about 350

So do AFOS, even after the departure to PACK.

With this information being brought forward, I must say I was wrong. 1000-1500 is definitely conservative.

Clan scene definitely is what has kept my interest. I think CC should do more to integrate clans into the site, such as putting a link up on the top between Tournaments & Forum. Little stuff like that goes a long ways IMO.

I've grown to mostly hate the clan scene on CC. I love the people in my clan, especially the ones who've been around for many years. But the clan scene, and all the petty drama that goes with it, I've got very little patience for.

This is the opinion of Serbia the CC user, not Serbia the Tournament Director.

Bollocks.

You don't talk about it, but you add a point, the tournament scene, that keeps interest if you don't want to get involve too much in a clan.

And tournament are very accessible.

You're absolutely right. When I bought my first premium membership (for $20 back in March of 2007) it was so I could join tournaments. Since then I've been involved in tourneys throughout my time here on CC. In fact, of my 4,473 completed games, 3,926 (roughly 88%) of them are tournament games.

Bollocks.

We heard you the first time qwert, but not every clan is playing in CL5.

I had an interesting discussions with Cav earlier. Apparently TSM have 30k posts in their forum (as a barometer, thats more than we have in Announcements :shock:

)

I know at Empire we had only made it to 20k, it'd be interesting to hear what other clans have as an indication of activity levels

How long / posts would be interesting as well. 30k compared to 20k but which started up before the other and how long where they around.

Example:
the Fallen started June 2012, and have 8,500 posts. 13 month / 8,500 post = (avg) 650+ post per month.

We should invite players to clan wars via email that haven`t played on the site in a while and start the games without them ever logging in. That would be more accessible.
