Is this a single elim bracket or is it different? It says round 1,2,3,4,5 so I was confused.

It is a single elim, if there ends up being enough clans that participate we could go through that many rounds

I would have absolutely no problem with Retribution taking part in this tourney. IMHO they have more right to be here than Brethren of the Fat Atlantis :lol:

We were first ranked in February of 2013 and were below 18th in March. We specifically bypassed the Conquer Cup for this tourney as we only have 3 members that have had any clan experience prior to joining Retribution. This is also really the first time we are even eligible for this tourney.

F400
March 1 - RET Unranked
March 15 - RET 21st
April 1 - RET 13th
April 15 - RET 10th

You qualified in March, but he does say you must qualify in March AND April...so, IDK.

If Retribution are not allowed to play then HH will reconsider our participation. They passed on CC4 for this tourney.

Interesting that Retribution is a problem, when Atlantis is basically exclusively composed of experienced clan players and is therefore only a new clan in its date of creation and name, but a very experienced team in clan events. Perhaps the Newcomers cup should add an additional eligibility criterion, such as new clans should be composed of less than 15% of players with clan experience ?

I can't believe that Atlantis is actually afraid of us ... :lol:

This is another bad taste in the clan world after all the politics involved in the other cup and the discussions surrounding it ... :?

There aren't any politics involved in this. They are ranked too high. The rules were clearly laid out.

i also don't understand the difference between rank 18 and 21, since they're almost the same rank. But who am i to discuss the rules?
i just read the rules and i follow them, agree or disagree...why would there be rules anyway?

Atlantis isn't afraid....i only read and follow the rules applied for this cup...
i do hope we'll meet in a tourney somewhere...i like the speed how your clan has been climbing into a top 10. Good work! =D>

well i hate to say but this is the fallback of bad rules and commands..

genoke if you want to follow this set of rules then (withdraw from ccup4) you did not qualify for that as the rules where, but have joined with acceptance of clan directors.

on the other hand we have a clan like retribution who stuck by the rules and joined this cup. i give them full backing to join. if we do not then it will allow aoce to join and others wanting the best of both sides like atlantis and others.

ret were not on the f400 in [NC4] Newcomers Cup 4 - Taking signups [15/??] - 2 days left

Postby mcshanester29 on Wed Mar 13, 2013 7:43 am
with the rules of
new clans - clan that has yet to be ranked by F400 ranking
any older clans ranked 21 or lower in March and April 2013 in F400 ranking
any clan created within last year ranked 18 or lower in March and April 2013 in F400 ranking
so genoke you took advantage of a noob head cd and joined up to one event don't take the piss of a clan that did not and if anything you should be disallowed because you are in ccup4 illegal to reg rules.

ret have followed long standing rules for events in the clan world you have not, and since proven that you want to pick the cherry from both get lost

Personally, I believe RET and Atlantis should not be allowed in, because this cup is now pointless, as either RET or Atlantis will win, no one else has a shot really. But yes, the point is moot. It will be a good final :)

Like usual you don't know everything behind the scene, but you've got your own interpretation.

When our clan was rised, they asked me to be a member of CDF, which i accepted.
2 months later CC4 was open for sign ups:
To sign up for the Conqueror's Cup, each clan must meet the following criteria.
-Must be members of the CDF
-and must demonstrate adequate ability to carry on a war (organizer experience, etc.)


so yes we meet the requirements.

genoke no offense against yourself but that rule used to be 1 month active and 1 complete war. which was a down grade from 3 months active and 2 wars. that rule was changed to the above on the merger of empire aoc to allow them into ccup4 and therefore allowed yourselves and vvv. and no i am not always right but i will fight for fairness. but lets not get into it here. your in and ret is with no complaints from me or aka, So enjoy the 1 cup you were officially allowed in and i look forward to kicking your ass.

no survivours i see it as if the clans are new they can join because they are new clans and qualify for this event this time the next event they will not.
