I have one. You, TOFU, THOTA, and the Monkeys are on one side of a river with a boat big enough to fit you and one whole clan. The Monkeys cannot be left alone with THOTA, and THOTA cannot be left alone with TOFU. How do you get everybody safely across to the other side without a clan war breaking out?

I take THOTA across, leave them. Go back and pick up TOFU and take them across. Drop TOFU off and bring THOTA back to the original side with me. Drop THOTA off at the original side and pick up the monkeys. Take the monkeys across and leave them with TOFU. Then go back and get THOTA and finally take them back across.

THOTA should feel special because they get to go on 3 boat rides.

If a clan breaks the map rule, then this should be pointed out before the game starts by the opposing clan and that clan will be asked to change one of their games. If it isn't noticed until after the games are started then the extra map game will be forfeited.
Now I'm a pretty sporting guy, but I think in this instance I'd be tempted to simply have my team join the game without saying anything and chalk it up as an immediate win by forfeit :D

You are definitely allowed to do that. Or you can be a good guy and just point it out. It really shouldn't be a problem because if the clan is paying attention then they shouldn't send a map 3 times or twice for the same settings!

So do each of the 1 v 1 games count as a separate point? Can they be on different maps?

:D

OK, a bit of bitching! im sure you aint gonna change anything, but id still like to bitchy a little :D

tie rule:
why not quads? why not random? why, oh why, please tell me why damn no spoils? :( i already see us in finals against TOFU, they had all the luck in the world there and manage to get to 30-30, and we are in "one game, winner takes all" situation. and i need to beat CoF in no spoils(not going to happen), or let someone else from Nemesis play that game(even less chances then beat CoF :lol:)

You were right about one thing, I "aint gonna change anything." By the way, "aint" aint a word and I aint going to use it.

Anyway, I had to choose a map because one team could get screwed big time in a triples or quads game with Random. And Classic to me is the obvious choice for a map to pick that doesn't give a huge advantage typically to any one team.

The rest of it, no real reason. I just had to make a choice and that is the choice I made. I tried to make it generic and simple.

ok teach me how to write english... you wanna try serbian? :P or you are forgetting im filling HA's chair until he is back so i need to be more like him :lol:

anyhow, just a suggestion :) and i think its a creative one... lets say you really end up tied with someone, why not use more players to decide? it would be fair, imo :) so, lets take 3 classic games triples. one with no spoils, one with esc, one with flat rate. any player can be in only one of those, and the winner would be the clan with 2 or 3 wins. this way, esc specialist would be in same position as no spoils specialist(there is no real specialist for flat :D), and the challenge will be decided by 9 players, not only by 3

In our challenge against Empire, we had agreed on 3 tie breakers, one each of dub, trip & quad, played on random maps with no spoils, chained and sunny and 9 different players filling the slots... not that there was any need to enter into that :lol: :lol:

But that's one for future cups. The terms of this one have already been laid down and there's little point in changing everything that falls short of an individual's ideals.

To sign up for the Conquer0r's Cup, each clan must meet the following criteria.


-Must be members of the CLA (Adhere to the 1 competetive clan rule)
-Must have completed 2 competetive clan wars of at least 40 games

To sign up, the clan leader must post the clan name in this thread along with a 2nd contact person to themselves. If there are more than 16 clans, a play-in round will be added in for the bottom ranked seeds.
i read a little conversation abouth leaving clan to play for other clan(i dont read all,so i dont know what its solution) so i think every clan before start of tournament need to give full list of Players who will participiate in Cup games.This will prevent any leave clan for play in other clans.If someon violated this rule,that game will be called win for opponents.

it has been dealt with already qwert.

chuck has decided that anyone playing for a clan at the start of the cup cannot play for another clan at any point during the competition if he/she switches clan.

i see,i just though that list of participiant in first page,will be good for everybody to check if someon try something ;)

i don't think it will be necessary to have the full list. any clan that loses a member to another clan during the course of the cup should report it in this thread instead, that ought to suffice.

Yes, so monkis wanting to play need to hurry and jump ship before the games get under way. :P

Also, chuuuuck: we'd like to modify the KORT contact info, and add sjnap as a secondary contact along with me.

Thanks! :)
