I agree with this; let club games affect only club rating. Otherwise engine users will get double the benefit; a fake club rating AND a fake rating.

Originally posted by Drew LI would like to see each club have 4 forums they can open, and name them any way they like.
Maybe a private forum for clubs? I think it would work better than clans as there would be more members and club games could be discussed when finished amongst both the opponents and all other members.

Originally posted by RamnedI think that's an excellent argument.
The most important thing for a club is to have a DEDICATED leader. I have chosen my club based on the leader's activity (GalaxyShield) and it seems to be a good club.
- The club leader ought to check each user very specifically to insure that the user does not use engines. Should be done often - some players will be easy to determine.
-Ought to be a st ...[text shortened]... ity in leadership and shows the leader knows what he's doing.
-Ought to know the site well.

I managed to cop a game with David Tebb out of this, so it's all good 🙂

Originally posted by RussWhat about unrated games between club members? Will these have any effects on the club?
Q: How does this rating stuff work again?
A : Rather than isolate people in a club from the rest of the site, games are created in the normal way. The site will detect when two club members play each other (it could be ANY rated game on the site, a clan game, a tournament game, siege game, a challenge game, or whatever comes along in the future) and then adjust the club rating for those games in addition to the main site rating.
Also, why must there be at least 50 members? Seems like a bit much, especially if clubs are to seem like "small communities." Surely a minimum of 20 or so would be sufficient?

Originally posted by wittywonkaI agree. 50 seems a little high

Originally posted by wittywonkaWith 19,000+ users making up the player tables, 50 seems very small.

Originally posted by Drew LI agree. I would like to use this tool to have my students meet and play each other. I only have 32 on the club ladder at school. Perhaps an option for the club admin. to set the minimum number of members needed? I understand there should be a limit to make ratings work better, but I think flexibility can be given here.

I have a question: Say you accept someone into your club, then later on, you start to suspect something fishy is going on (this could be a number of things, either a sudden rise or drop in rating, suddenly exploding in the forums etc..), how do you remove the club member, if you start feeling uncomfortable with them? Is there currently a way to do so that I haven't found (I like to make sure something is there, even if I don't need it, in case I do later)? If not, perhaps a little 'boot' link would be appropriate, like in the clans?

Originally posted by RussI like it being double rated, actually. Mostly because of the tournaments and leagues that wouldn't be part of the club. Unless the clubs will have their own sections for these, of course, but otherwise it seems like real ratings could suffer. But this is just my opinion.
