This is just similar to the gross point system, except that you now give points to clans for losing challenges.
There has to be a difference between winning and losing.
The current system, while not perfect, reflects this philosophy.
The current system also makes a drawn challenge worth fighting for.
Case in point.
Our clan recently completed a 9 player challenge where we needed to win the last game left to gain 9 points for a split challenge instead of losing 18 for a lost challenge.
A difference of 27 points !!
Guess what we did ??
We won that game !!
I have another game in a 4 player challenge that I intend to bring home for my clan.
To gain 4 points in a split instead of losing 8. A 12 point difference.
That is called incentive !!!
Maybe that is too Darwinian for some.
But it is what it is.
I am quite sure we have lost our share of challenges by one game.
But we take our losses as well as our wins like everyone else.
It's the same for everybody.
