    I must disagree. The inherent problem with the current system is sandbagging.

    A means of marking players whose currnet ranking is significantly below their top ranking would put extreme pressue on their clan leader to match their player not against a comparably ranked but a comparably skilled competitor.

    It's simple and I only see upside to this proposal.

    I don't see how that can be done so easily..

    And wins most..
    Look at Spinning Stars.. they lose most.. and are 3rd, just by playing more games than you.. so e helping those clan leaders who seem not be willing to look more closely at the challenges..[/b]

    How is it that you place Spinning Stars in 3rd place?? They are over 300 net points in the hole both in YTD net points, and All time net points. We are in 17th place at the moment in YTD Net points with 180+ net points to the positive. And we're in 12th place for all time net points with 2420+. I have no idea how you come up with the spinning stars are in 3rd place. Please explain??

    Great colours indeed!

    But we'd need an intelligent discussion of each Robbie to ensure we avoided social, political and sporting biases. I boldly suggest a neo-Mccarthist style of Robbies to avoid accusations of disloyalty, subversion, or treason without proper regard for evidence. I further suggest shades of pinko Robbie from pure The King and I God-made-me-do-it White Robbie to a deep Mount Lofty Sparkling Shiraz Red Robbie.

    Okay, Well I personally only go by net points to count any clans performance. And I think Patricks idea of having clans listed on the clan pages by net points is a good idea. All time net points I think would be best. It wouldn't change much for the top 5 clans either. But that's just my personal opinion.

    It also would be nice if they had some kind of award or trophy or some kind of recognition for the clan that ends up in first place each year for net points, I think.

    I agree with this aspect of the proposals,but not those that have the potential to be used to impune players simply to make life easier for clan leaders
