    The ICL is a sport based Clan League in which teams will compete in a series of games vs divisional, conference, and inter-conference sets. The season will last approximately 4 months, June-September.
    A season schedule will be made available and released before the opening of the season to assist in team game planning. The ICL will conform to the one clan rule.

    I will play the part of League Commissioner, MNDuke, and chapcrap will be also be assisting with organizing the inaugural event.

Any Captain's or Co-Captain's who have questions and would like to get answers over SKYPE - please PM me and I will provide my contact information to assist.

The ICL is now accepting official clan sign-ups until May 5th!
- Please include First and Second contacts, and your clans 10 player minimum roster.

Other than unlimited there hasn't been much discussion / complaints. Hope to see you involved in future events :)

Do you not have any contingency plans in place? Given that the CC3 has 33 clans signed up and this league has had only 18 clans express interest, I find it quite unlikely the goal of 36 clans will be reached. I'm hesitant to sign up for a pie-in-the-sky format that is likely not going to happen in year one without knowing what a more realistic format would look like. I hope you do get 36 clans signed up but I think you need to let us know what the plan is if that doesn't happen.

Could you provide what the format would be for 18-clan, 24-clan, & 30-clan leagues and perhaps give just a little guidance on what changes you would make if the total number fell between those levels? Your current proposal is to wait until after signups have completed before telling us what the real league is going to look like. I'm not at all comfortable with that.

My main concern is that I don't want a lot of teams making the playoffs and would think the playoff structure for an 18-clan league would have to be significantly different than what is proposed for a 36-clan league. Personally, I'd like to see <=25% of teams make the playoffs (e.g., 8/36). I'm willing to sign up for something more than that since I imagine there may be others who prefer more.... but if it goes too high, I'm not interested. I think 12/36 (33%) is acceptable but at the very edge of those limits and I would not want the percentage to go over 33% in any scenario.

At what participation level would you drop to 4 divisions? At what participation level would you drop to 4 wild cards? to 2 wild cards?

Yes, we do have plans in place for lower than 36 sign ups, though not typed out neat and understandable currently just on paper. I'll be happy to show the format for 18 clan league if that would help some, I also agree 36 is hopeful based on initial interest. I dont want to typed out all the formats for every scenario, but i will post the 18 clan league for those on the fence to look at. Give me a few days to get through typing it out and work etc.

Unlimited reinforcements are allowed on conquest maps only.


might i suggest that you guys simplify this rule some people on this site cant comprehend the word ONLY!! when they read the simplest of simple sentences they just don't understand that ONLY means ONLY. the moronic thought pattern of saying ONLY might in there little pea brains mean that it just might mean maybe or probable or even most certain!!! there are also a few on this site that will back them up trying to make it sound like something that it really is not. that in its self is truly amazing that dumb can be backed up by dumber

now i ONLY can speak from past experiences that you will be call a crappy TO for bad rules that you have no idea what your doing and that even know most will sign up that know one really wants to play due to your lack of poor rule making!!

This is just a suggestion and in no terms trying to tell the TO's how to run the turny!

i wish you guys all the luck DYNASTY is discussing it and will let you know if we are in.

This time the rule is written very clear so everyone can understand it. ;)

In CL4 the same rule was written on double-sense way because organizers were not able to write it clear. many players confirmed double-sense wording of the rule in CL4 (not only me). now WBPRJ heal his own frustrations here, in other event which has nothing to do with CL4 and does not deserve to really unnecesary put shit in this thread.

Everyone has right for his opinion, I wrote my opinion here in non-provocative way, informed organizers that I will not participate, and wished good luck to participants. no hard feelings, no attacking anyone, just informing. obviously WPBRJ has some serious problems because he needs to put his own shit in thread which has nothing to do with his own problems. :roll:

1st Regiment of Foot Guards confirms its commitment.

Captain: General Brock II
Alternate: mr. CD

I'm not sure if we are or are not supposed to be in the roster. If not, sub ianphull in for me and queen victorious in for CD.
1. General Brock II
2. mr. CD
3. Crarg
4. Ickyketseddie
5. MegsEggs
6. Pirlo
7. Agent 86
8. Italianipastido
9. pianowazza
10. Baby-Bjorn

quick question, as I didn't see anything about map limitations. I would assume that you're permitted to use each map only once per set, but repeatedly throughout the league? ie. Arms Race can't be used for dubs, triples and Quads against RA. But we can use it again v. FOED.

Brock:
Under maps and settings:
Maps can be used once per set only. Future sets are ok to reuse a map.

Under Playoffs:
A map Can be used once per set, no more than 20% total.

Thank you, that would be appreciated, perhaps not in details, but in general would be enough. Also I'd like to remind you about my suggestion that number of overall games for each team (season length) remain the same regardless of number of teams.


Unlimited reinforcements are allowed on conquest maps only

What are the "conquest" maps? As far as I know, there is no official designation for maps being "conquest" or not. Who and how will make a decisions on which maps are OK for unlimited and which are not? And why would you even have a rule like this?!?

I can't believe that you are so rude and unable to understand the concept that sentences and phrases can sometimes be understood (or misunderstood) in multiple ways. This is particularly true when people are communicating in a language other than their first. I would think you would have more sympathy for people in that situation since it appears that English isn't your first language, either.

Listen, take any arguing about things elsewhere.

Questions are ok to be asked here and will be answered here.

The length could change slightly, in order to keep a balanced schedule for all of the teams. IcePack has this information. By slightly, I mean that if 30 teams sign up instead of 36, it could be 76 sets instead of 72.

I can compile a list of conquest maps for you. About the rule, IcePack or MNDuke will have to reply to that question.

Thanks lordnex, I have time tomorrow night and will likely update the scenario list for people then. I will also review your suggestion, but make no promises until further study is made on our composition of div and how it affects our schedule, etc. :)

As far as the unlimited rule, we discussed quads only and conquest maps. Ultimately it came down to conquest maps and we can provide the list tomorrow as well.

Master Kai & RET - You're in! Thanks for signing up.
