    That's right!

    I wonder if Russ would just make that oh so minor code change ... you know ... the one that sorts by gross points as the default ... then we'd be first 😀

    Things change quickly, who knows, in a few days we might only be 6 points behind you 😉

    That was voted on years ago to try to stop a certain Clan from winning all the time, but didn't seem to work. The system we have now, was voted by an over whelming majority to keep which is newest by the way. It is not how many you play, it is how many you win and lose that is considered to be the most fair for all. Some teams play many games, while others not so many. I am sure if I am wrong about any of this one of the Clan Leaders will correct me on it. 🙂

    Hopefully our net will improve now that I'm not accepting as many 'loaded' challenges ... it took quite a few mistakes to get the hang of it, so to speak ... we have lost too many games (and have a few more to come no doubt!) in part due to my poor match-ups late last year ...

    As an aside are quality and quantity mutually exclusive? Presumably some clans have finished top on both net and gross in the past?

    In Clans you can look at to your left shows you all the winning teams since 2003 I believe it is. You will see both net and gross points and winning Clans.

    Indeed!

    Many of us present members weren't even in the Clan back then. I believe I joined that year, but didn't join a Clan until 2008.

    That because you like to pick and chose your own games.

    You've had people in your clan and kicked them.

    you keep saying an overwhelming majority
    it wasn't even a majority
    it was a plurality
    maybe someday you'll know the difference

    What does have to do with why you kick people and want a one man clan?

    Perhaps you didn't understand the question?

    Or just trying to avoid it, you're sounding a bit like Trump if you don't like what is being said change the topic to something entirely different.

    Actually his lawyers on T.V. this very minute doing just that! 😉

    I do have the brains to know that 1 man is not a Clan, it takes a group of people to make a Clan. No I have no guts, a washboard stomach being your asking! 😛 😉
