Not sure.

I think that games between members, whether clan, normal, siege, tourney, will start to have an effect on the club rating.

Assuming the club rating is activated which it doesn't seem to be yet.

We need a few 50 member clubs to make it worth Russ's while to add features.

Almost there. I am at 10%, so we just need an increase of 900%.

Would be particularly interested to know if a game started now between two members of an under 50 club creates a rating when the club tops 50.

Also, you know on your games page where you have the symbols that denote clan or tourney game etc? It would be nice to have a second symbol that denotes club games.

This will become more important as clubs swell and you may not know every member.

Similar question, if I'm playing a tourney game is it now a club tourney because the other user is in my club?

Russ said both players have to be in the club before the game starts.

This is a consultation thread for 'clubs' with some (rather rough, but mostly functional) live code behind it to make things more interesting. (Example Club 1)

The 'clubs' concept can go forward in any direction, adopted wholeheartedly, or be [b]erased completely if it proves to have no merit. So please don't be too upset if this all gets ...[text shortened]... old back. I don't think even Chris is sold on this, so no need to be polite...

I am really struggling to see the point of all this, i have to be honest. Big fish in a small pond? What's the point in that??

Yes he did, and we were, but we don't yet have 50.
