This setup would make it possible to have something that I don't think is possible under the current Clan League format:
A Fantasy Clan League.
Just like fantasy football, except team owners would pick players from clans, and the players would get their points from Clan League games.
If you've never played fantasy football, you can read about it here.

What do you guys think?

Is there going to be a clan league or not?

I'm asking because I have some clan war planning coming up and I'd like to account for the clan league (or not).

-- crazy4catnip

Given the CLA has 71 members and some admission requirements
memberlist.php?mode=group

1. Enforce the one competitive clan rule.
2. Have completed at least two clan challenges of at least 40 games (with an established tie-breaker).
3. Have been a clan for at least three months.


and many clans might have appointed one person, CLA can probably claim about every clan in CC, maybe about 40 or 50 clans.

The exact relationship between the proposed CC Clan League - Premier <> First <> Qualification , proposed largely by Qwert, and having lots of posts

posting.php?mode=quote&f=438&p=3855926

and the Clan League Association CLA is unclear.

From my discussion with Qwerts , virtually every clan in CC expressed some interest and was supposed to be invited to participate in a fall start-out, with some clans hesitating, maybe due to scheduling problems/

posted to the thread and Qwert

My clan, Spelunkers of Hell (SoH), looks forward to the league but we too are a little swamped now. Just got finished off a close fought war with RH, have the - CL4] Div 5 Championship MM vs SOH - underway and are going through a few organization changes. Please list sempaispellcheck our Minister of War, as a new contact and keep me as a contact. We are happy to have a few extra weeks to get organized for the league and would be happy with a November start date?? If that causes difficulties for clans or for you, worst case scenario, a new year start??

Assuming we are in the qualification division do I have this right:

SoH would name 10 home games our choice of maps and settings before the seasons tarts .

3 Doubles - Clan's Choice of Maps & Settings
3 Triples - Clan's Choice of Maps & Settings
4 Quadruples - Clan's Choice of Maps & Settings

We play those home games against 13 other clans, We also play Away games against the 13 other clans on their Home games, their choice of Maps and Settings. there will be a tiebreaker Random map. A set of games starts every two weeks the season lasts 26 weeks, there are breaks. there are no play-offs.

appreciate all you have done, are doing and will do.

its postponed ,because to many competition are ongoing( CC3,CL4,ACC,Random League)



This exchange with qwert gives some idea of how virtually every clan in CC and the CLA?? would be invited in (and our ranking in the qualification divisioo).

Are invites to participate in the league going out soon? With the August rankings out

- [New] F400 Ranking [Updated 08-01-12]
viewtopic.php?f=438&t=174424

I assume that if the top 14 Clans in the August ratings,from KORT to BOTFM, accept the invites, they will be in the Premier League. If any of them decline to participate in the league then PIGS would be in the Premier League and so forth.


Similarly if the top 14 clans in the August rating, from KORT to BOTFM, accept the invites,then clans from PIGS to HH accepting the invites will be in the First League. But if any of the clans in the top 14 decline then the clans in the First league could include VDLL

Etc.

Do I have it right??

Fewnix wrote:My clan, Spelunkers of Hell (SoH) would appreciate clans working together to make the CC Clan League - Premier <> First <> Qualification.or something very similar happen. It seems most clans were in favour of the league , with most ,though not all , of the details worked out. so no need to start from scratch. As can be expected when you are trying to start up a league with schedules for about 40 clans in flux, with wars and CL4 and stuff, there were scheduling problems.

Enclosed is a post I made in the CLA a while back about a January start-up date. At this point we would have to look to more a spring or even summer date, if it is to happen at all.

Please . let us make this happen.

One of of our top priories is the proposed CC Clan League - Premier <> First <> Qualification. something we consider a just right "Goldilocks" level of activity for clans to fit into their schedules. Not too much competition, space to throw in the odd war or inner clan events, but not too little activity, so clan members are wondering why bother win a clan that offers so few competitive games.Not war you get drafted into but a sports league type thing where you and the group get out once and a while and strut your stuff. Most of us are not in clans for the scintillating conversation.

We understand there have been scheduling problems in the start-up with all the different wars and competitions involving clans going on and we are happy with the postponement but do want to see the League happening.. We suspect for most of us a a start date in the New Year, maybe January would be peachy keen. I respectfully suggest the Clan Leaders Association and Qwert and other doers of things do this?

The one minor adjustment I would recommend is for medal qualification to be based on the number of participating clan members rather than clan size. The reason for this is that the number of "inactive" members on clan rosters varies widely from clan to clan. We don't have too many on ours but I don't really want to have to boot currently inactive members off our roster just to give our active members a better chance at a medal.

-12 games its need for player to qualify for medal-

josko.ri
Some points I would like to adress:

1. Does clans play in the same week vs different clans, ie home set vs TOFU and away set vs PACK in the same week? if yes, I think that is great idea.

2. If you get 42 sign ups instead of 36, which is more likely as clan area is growing and CL4 had 39 entries, how it will apply in the format? will it be qualification tournaments with 7 clans in 6 groups, so then you make League 4, or you will make 7 groups of 6 clans, in which case every League will extend from 12 to 14 clans?

3. "If the tie is between more than two clans, then the tie is broken, using the games the clans have played against each other:
a) head-to-head points
b) head-to-head game difference
c)head-to-head away game wins
d)Most away wins for the entire season"
so, if 3 or more clans are tied, there is not Game difference for the entire season the first tie breaker? I think you made typo here.

4. I think maximum allowed games per player should be 4 (2 home 2 away), not 6. with 4 it is 25% of total games, and with 6 it is 37,5% of total games in the round. Previous clan competitions had maximum allowed number of games per player between 30% and 33% of total games. As clan area is growing, clans in average get more members, so there is more chance to have more players be involved in clan war, so then it is no need that one player plays 37,5% of all games. The trend of maximum % of games allowed per player needs to go down as clan area is growing, not up.

5. About the schedule, I think you can afford some free weeks otherwise this may be too hard to be on the date for all clans. I suggest have 2 week break (instead of one week break) after 3rd 6th and 9th, or after 4th and 8th round to be it easier to catch the schedule for everyone. this will make the whole league just 2 or 3 weeks longer, it is really not so much.

6. I suggest you use F400 ranking, and use pools for placing clans into seedings. for example, pool 1 are clans 1-6, pool 2 clans 7-12 etc adn then random draw decides which clan will be placed into which Division.

Those are just minor change suggestions, in total this sounds very nice format

Qualification and League competition Ranking
In bout stages Clans are ranked by this criteria
1.Total points
2.Game Difference

TIEBREAK
If points and game difference are equal between two or more Clans, the rules are:

1.tiebreakers between two clan are applied in the following order:

a)Head-to-head results.
b)Most away wins for the entire season
c)Most away game wins for the entire season

2.If the tie is between more than two clans, tiebreake are applied in the following order:
a) head-to-head points
b) head-to-head game difference
c)head-to-head away game wins
d)Most away wins for the entire season
e)Most away games wins for the entire season

1) sign up rules must be followed (no offense to 1 or 2 clans) but they did not meet the sign up conditions in cl4 and were added after the deadline when clans who did meet it asked for extra time were not allowed this.

2) not mentioning any clans but there was some fishy games in certain match ups that looked like certain clans were helping others 2 qualify.

3) since 2 contacts are required both contacts get pms when stages of this start just in case 1 is away. because there was a couple of clans who were penalized between phases because pms went to the wrong clan reps who were not present in the time for games to be made.

4) experienced tournament organizers are used to run cl5 especially ones who can calm a situation down instead of igniting it.

5) if there are any changes to rules signups they are voted for in a public thread by all clans with a 50 or 60 percent win needed for the change 2 happen. because if we all sign up to a set of rules they should be kept like that until there is agreement to change them from the participants..

6) if a organizers responses are out of order towards clans reps they are replaced as the organizer.

i could go more in depth for some of these issues but hey new year and all let old dogs lie.

1.Well i hope that these format with all rules will be build at least 1 month before beginning, these mean that people will have a loth time to prepare to fulfill all sign up proposition.

2.I dont know nothing about that, and i dont know what got to do with these topic? I think that these its wrong address for answer.

3.These rule are still under construction, for now only format working.

4. These its not job for one person,of course that more people will be drafted for organization of CL5

5.I dont know anything about voting, but i know that sigh up are in stage of proposition.

6.These is about what? I try to recognize on what issue you address ? rules about what?

well, you think some universal medal qualification, who will be equal for everybody?
well then need to calculate some average game number ? something like

-12 games its need for player to qualify for medal-

are these something what you talk?

Number of games required by player to qualify for medal.

10 to 14 clan participants - 20 games
15 to 19 clan participants - 17 games
20 to 24 clan participants - 13 games
25 to 29 clan participants - 10 games
30 plus clan participants - 7 games

No, I have no problem with your breakout of games needed to qualify (nor am I opposed to tweaking the numbers)... I like your tiered approach to make it fair for clans of different sizes. I would just like to see the basis be participating players rather than overall clan size (which may include players who will not be participating in the tournament who, in my view, shouldn't be counted)... Something like below in order to take inactive clan members out of the equation:

Number of games required by player to qualify for medal.

10 to 14 clan participants - 20 games
15 to 19 clan participants - 17 games
20 to 24 clan participants - 13 games
25 to 29 clan participants - 10 games
30 plus clan participants - 7 games

It's not a perfect solution but it doesn't seem fair to penalize clans for keeping their rosters clean. For example, clan A and clan B both have 24 active players who will be participating in this tourney. However, Clan A also has 6 inactive players on their clan roster (30 total). Based on clan size in this scenario, Clan A players need only complete 7 games in order to qualify for a medal while Clan B players need to complete 13 games (nearly double). Just trying to come up with a more meaningful basis for the minimum game count... otherwise it is an incentive (medal-wise) for clans to keep non-players on their roster to keep the medal game requirements low.

Player Qualifications for Medals

Each player must have at least 1 win to qualify for a medal.

Each player must play a minimum of 14 games to qualify for a medal.

no speculation,, 14 game played -1 win-qualify for medal,, plain and simple.

10 to 14 clan participants - 20 games
