It's final Blitz, you'll be going against Kort. Made me lol too. I'd suggest spelling it CORT and then say *Not updated properly

I would think some in their clan would since we are challenging them, yes, but, I got the answer, should get kicked off 12-5-10 or earlier.

should Thota challenge Tofu sometime in 2011?

should Tofu challenge a top tier clan in the meantime?


Interested to hear whats others think and get JP's viewpoint as the clan director.

Good question, I'd like to see how the league playoffs play out and whether the CLA Leap Frog ladder happens first. Both THOTA and TOFU have not really lost (IMO). If it happens via either of those 2 avenues I'd be happy, if not then maybe late 2011 it'll happen. There should be no real rush to get this done.

Yes this should happen, IMO you should have played TOFU instead of KORT

Up to them, though most clans are not available to play currently with other things on their plate, namely the CLA.

how could we play tofu instead of kort? If the rules of the cup, kort and chuuuuck agreed for that to be, then we would have certainly, but, why should we sit out of the finals in the cup if we are forced to play kort? you just want us to give it to them without a challenge?

Because TOFU won more games (even accounting for a 1 game penalty, what most people thought should be the maxim penalty), everyone would have viewed the winner of a war between you and TOFU as the real winner of the Conquers Cup. I understand why you didn't as you want the actual title, and I don't blame you fort it I'm just saying i would have wanted something different. Yes you give them the "title" of the Conquers Cup but no one would view them as the winners, everyone would view who won TOFU vs THOTA as the actual winners.

:lol: ljex, you need to get a grip pal.

I for one am not going to forfeit to NO one. I didn't make the rules and we would of played whomever, it didn't matter to us, but, I am not just going to give someone the CUP for free, whether cc clans see it as you or not, we have honor and not going to go out that way. Hope you can understand that. I can see your viewpoint, but, at the same time you have to understand ours.

I need to get a grip? I don't really take kindly to such an insult for no reason. If you notice I said it was my opinion and as you can see the highlighted part says I see your point as well but i would want something different. Yeah you play by the rules of the CUP but look where the rules got us...anyway you don't have to agree with me and i don't expect you too. You are looking for actual titles/awards/accolades as opposed to perceived greatness. Anyway not called for saying i need to get a grip, I know for a fact that there are many people out there who agree with me including some members of your clan.

Hold on a second here. While I can see why you personally would have enjoyed seeing us basically spurn the cup and play Tofu, you wouldn't have had to deal with any of the various negatives associated with such. As a spectator, I don't think that implying that somehow we didn't do the right thing is a very persuasive argument, regardless of how many qualifiers you couched it in. So you somehow taking offense is pretty rich.

Let's not forget that THOTA did absolutely nothing wrong, and that we didn't have a dog in the fight when it came to the other semifinal, nor did we have an iota of control over our opponent in the finals. We signed up for the cup over a year ago, we progressed, and we'll keep playing until it's over. Empty ceremonial gestures are all well and good for the spectators, but it's a bit different when you're the one making the gesture.

Incandenza i respect your opinion a lot, and understand why you want to play KORT, it is for the official CUP title. Its not about who I want to see play who, its about my desire to see what should truly be the finals match-up. Also there aren't any negatives for playing TOFU instead of KORT, in my opinion. THOTA has done nothing wrong here, please point out where i said anything about that. All I said was that if i were in the situation I would want to play TOFU, yes I transfered my beliefs to you but is there really any harm in that? Again I understand why you would want to do what you do, and don't have a problem with this. All I am saying is that i would have wanted something different.

Well, it didn't really matter what we wanted, Kort was going to do what they were going to do and certainly didn't consult us. Would we have preferred that their semi with Tofu proceeded without all the drama and rule crap? Of course. But just because Kort made an insanely unpopular decision, that was no reason for us to basically bail on the cup, let them be champions by default, and play Tofu, all to make some kind of larger point (or worse, purely for the entertainment value). Whatever you may think about Kort's decision, they were within their rights to demand the full forfeit by the rules, thus within the context of the cup there's no real illegitimacy to their presence in the finals. In the eyes of the CC clan community, it's a different story, of course.

And don't get me wrong, I'd love to play Tofu. But we have a previous commitment that we have to finish up first.
