What happened to the requirement in the OP that the clan be under 1 year?

Or if the spots aren't filling up, clans ranked below 21 according to the Algorithm 400 ranking

This competetition is for lower part of ranking and
those still unexperienced clans, some under a year have enough experience.

Just made it more clear.

IGNI is in, and were out for blood with you guys so those medals may not even be safe at your place :D



rofl this is the best laugh of the week. let me see. koa apart from 1 challenge via grim reapers (just after a major reshuffle of players) have you actually faced a clan in a proper war that are older than 1 month or have 1 complete challenge behind them. :lol: :lol: :lol:


Eddie, please refer to the following:

CD's Random Suicide Tournament

Round 1 we faced off versus the AOC. The first round finished 6 - 5 in favor of AOC.. In other words a very close match up.. ;)

We've also faced Dynasty and Legion with close match ups in the past in non standard clan war stuff. Don't waste your breath, we will talk with our games ;)

lol a 11 game war is totally different to a 40 game one esp when the 11 one is all random

All random surely shows more skill... You have to be more versatile... Anyway edddie - We shall let your clan do the talking ;)

:roll: I promise he's not an egotistical dick in real life.

This is a great idea Benga. It does great to get clans feet wet in solid competition. Good luck everyone.

RAKING
23-KOA-chapcrap
24-AKA-far2ezee
25-GR-shoop76
27-TNC-TheCrown
29-OSA-benga
1st Regiment-General Brock II
HH-QoH
Manifest Destiny-ViperOverLord
IGNI-skillfusniper33
M.B.-jgordon1111

Still need to check for Regiment (don't see them on Farangs 400th )and maybe switch places for Destiny and IGNI, but according to clans joined so far rounds will be:

[spoiler=rounds]ROUND 1:
HH-MB
MAN D-IGNI

ROUND 2:
KOA vs MAN D-IGNI
AKA vs HH-MB
GR-1RFG
OSA-TNC[/spoiler]

Along with this standard bracket I have 2 more ideas how it should look.

RANDOM BRACKET
-will ask one of the CDs to randomize the bracket
-ranking would be used to determinate who makes the thread and has one home game less (higher ranked)

SEPARATE BRACKET
-separate new clans (none or little experience)from older clans (experienced but ranked lower then 21 according to F 400)

ROUND 1
HH-MB
MAN D-IGNI

ROUND 2
war 1:KOA vs 1RFG
war 2:AKA vs OSA
war 3:GR vs TNC
war 4:HH-MB vs MAN D-IGNI

ROUND 3-merge
war 1-war 4
war 2-war 3

What you guys think?

There are still couple of days for 6 clans to enter so it should be interested to see who else jumps in, so I can finalize the bracket.

However you want to set it up is fine with me. I think that ranking the clans and setting up a normal bracket would be the best way.

If the top teams get a bye, that's fine with me because whoever is at the bottom probably has less experience than the top clans and would fare better and get a better experience from facing another lower ranked team in the first round.

Everything looks alright for ranking. It is surprising that 1st Regiment isn't in Farangs 400, but I do believe they are above all the other clans that aren't in the system either.

As for switching IGNI and MAN D it wouldn't change the match ups at all, but just who created the tiebreaker game, and ran the forums right? And if that is the case it wouldn't be a big deal to me who is ranked higher

I would rank the bracket systems as you have them listed now, but hopefully we can pull a few more clans into this.

When I get home will have more time to check any of wars you 2 clans had to verify the ranking.


FIXED:

Please do not join games later then 5 days, otherwise you are facing a forfeit.

no forfeits allowed if they want a medal for the war

I think we are still just short of the required weight points to feature in the Listings. Once our wars with AKA and AOD is done (any day now) i'm sure we'll be on there somewhere :) I guess it won't be updated for a month tho!

Anyway looking good! Can't wait to get started! :D
