GeneralDirection: A magic fix for clan wars would not be something that has nothing to do with clan wars.

lord_farquad: 640 is the max, we don't expect to reach that number.
I would also like to mention that this event will not take the place of the upcoming Ultimate Conquest: Absolute Power Tournament.

lord_farquad: Now I have to ask... what events do you think I design?

Captain_Judo: I recognize that and hate changing tournament rules or schedules. We'll normally discuss and only act when we agree that it's absolutely necessary. Again, Skirmish 5 falls on me and, based on past experience, the "best" is yet to come  

Captain_Judo: We have something in the works and want to make it's basis transparent to the entire eSports community.

Captain_Judo: We need a bro hug emoticon!

lord_farquad: So... based on player feedback about the map, and given that there was a similar event which ended in a draw, partially due to the map. We have changed the map to Ruinberg, and the mode to Encounter

lord_farquad: No.... I'd probably make you play encounter on Ruinberg or Ensk  

lord_farquad: ....not sure if serious....

lord_farquad: and I quote.....
"If a draw occurs at the quarter-final stage or later, the judges reserve the right to hold a tiebreaker between the two teams"
if you draw again... I will make sure the tiebreaker is "un-drawable"
Also please note that the eSports team does not run or design the Clan Wars events, thus we apologize in advance for our inability to constructively comment on those.

Keep in mind that these weekend scrimmages are only building into another tournament format. When this current format was released, we didn't expect it to be as popular as it has become.

Well deserved skirmish victory for Team Plaid, a team representing five different clans who dominated Skirmish 4, sweeping all opponents until the final round:
Team Plaid 3:2 WAR - River of Blood
They've even gone ahead and provided us with a play by play shoutcast of their final rounds. The semifinals begin around the 7:00 mark and finals at around 22:00. It's a fun watch and highly recommended viewing!
Congrats on your tournament win, Team Plaid

GeneralDirection: What exactly does Jewel_Thief have to do with any of this? Garbad I am disappoint.

Yoott: Tolos dont agree much but this 1 I 100% agree with you on LOL

Yoott: You should uninstall... only 91% .... Ive seen bots better then you.... lol :-)

Yoott: I have seen what Baroom is talking about with this and its total and utter stupidity..... people are making accounts on other sites and places like you tube and posting pretending to be the leadership of these clans and threatening violence to family members and everything..... extremely childish and needs to stop. The clans on the map played the game given to them... did they use diplo, to help push themselves along SURE... buts thats 90% of CW  and any real CW leader in here cant argue that diplo is so big. At the same time all of them had to fight through the LZ to win and they did beating some pretty big teams in the process that were no pushovers I can guarantee..
The big clans did nothing wrong to earn where they are... they were prepared, they were ready, they trained, they worked hard, they battled hard and have great teams and dont deserve the childish negativity they are getting... on top of which read below

Yoott: They have agreed to the proposal put out by WG to wipe the map and forgo millions of free gold between them in order to make this event right. Did they have to .. no... is everyone thrilled about it..no how can you expect them to be.. however they could be on these forums being just as loud, vocal and negative about it as many people are being towards them and they are not. At the end of the day will they hold land again really quickly ... sure there are not many scenarios where that does not happen barring a meteor hitting earth or something... but at least give them the props they deserve for standing up and saying sure lets have a redo for the best interest of the game and CW. And stop with the bashing of them.....

GeneralDirection: Thanks Arrowfoot. It's much appreciated.
