So right now, if the clan leader board was running, three player’s ratings from each clan are added and averaged to get the clan’s rating.


What about doing it differently? A way to involve things more… Here's an idea:

Every week we would have a clan tournament.
Each tournament could have a different map.
Every other tournament the map played will switch from mining to unlimited.
Clans will elect players two players to represent them (these payers could be changed every tournament so clans can elect members that are good with unlim/ming depending on what that week is).
The map for that week could be decided by voting. Each clan gets one vote and each clan votes for the map (from a selection of maps to chose) they want to play the tournament on that week.
The clans vs each other (the representatives do) and if they lose once they are out.
So lets say we have four clans. The tournament will go like this: game one will be clan1 vs clan2 and game 2 will be clan3 vs clan 4. The winners of game one will play each other and the clan that wins that would be the number 1 clan that week.
If no members from a clan show up to the weekly tournament to play, the clan auto loses and becomes last place for that week.
To keep clans from being the #1 by just having two good members, they would have an assigned list of who plays what tournament. A moderator could create this list to ensure a pro player from one clan does not end up VSing a noob player from another clan. When everyone on the list has played the list restarts. If the player on the list cannot show up, the next player on the list plays (they swap places so the next week the player who missed last week would play).

This idea Tyson and I came up with could be tweaked to work better.

This idea of course won't work until we get some clans active.


This method cause more clan and game activity. Also, a clan will have to earn the #1 clan spot by skill and not points.

I think its a good idea but the dates of each tournament might risk a clans position of being the top clan to the lowest clan.

Will there be two clan leaderboards? One for the clan tournament and another for the overall high score?

We could try to put it on a date most people would be free. Like Saturday afternoon or Saturday evening

It's probably too much work and time for the players and the person running it.
