[NC] Newcomers Cup /winners=THE PACK/

Postby benga on Wed Feb 23, 2011 5:40 pm

Special thanks to shaneback and jpcloet for helping me out.

This are the participating clans:



Here just to say couple of things:

1.This game is about fun and enjoyment for me and it should stay so. Any problem should be easily overcome and I don't want any of the wars to become flame war. Play fair and don't get unreasonable.

2.This is Newcomers Cup, so if any clan is a bit late or slow on joining, don't hold it against them. We or most are here to learn before thrown to wolves.

3.Except me there is always shaneback to turn on, as he has help me so far and thank you for that.

4.I will updated the thread as soon as I can with all the results.

5.I am easy going guy and believe that going for any punishment is the last resort, as I said at start, this is game and lets try to have some fun, all issues can be dealt in friendly manner.

Good luck to all!

Do you have the seedings posted anywhere? Seems odd to me that OSA and WG are the two lowest seeded clans, I would probably rate both in the top half of the clans participating

A lot of new clans in this one, but as I remember Grim Reapers are quite old. They played in our division in Clan League season 2 so they must have been around for at least 1 1/2 years.

Since June 2009 (I'm not crazy enough to look it up, I was a member for a while :P ).
In the other thread in the general clan forum, benga said you didn't have to be a new clan, he was having trouble getting to 8 clans, which is what he wanted. My guess is the Reapers joined up then WG (who was on the fence) decided to participate, so there ended up being 9.

Benga sent me an invite, along with some other clans, both established and new. It first the though of being lumped in with "new" clans was a bit insulting, however, a lot of these new clans are quite talenlted, and I think we will have some tough competition.
The entry to WG into this challenge has just sweetened the pot, as they are a basically a top 20 clan with a couple new members and a new name, where as Im sure the other clans in this challenge fall below the top 20 mark. Its unfortunate that WG and OSA are to meet in the play-in round, as they are probably top of the top 3 clans in this challenge.

Send an invite to inital 8 clans, but only response from 4.
3 autommatically joined, 4th wasn't sure, so I sent some more invites. I was in a bit of a hurry to start cause wanted it finished before summer and some clans waited to see if they get in CCup2.

As we somehow got 8, thought it's all good to go, but then
Geese joined in, so felt it's our responsibility to go in play in round as I was hosting to whole thing.

I will wait for couple of more days, cause as it seems there is more interest. It is mostly for new clans, but also for lower ranked who can then help get newer clans get organized and give them some input and experience.

Completely agree. I'd put OSA and WG at 1 and 2 actually, closely followed by the Reapers, then the Pack. (I follow all clan wars and have a pretty good feeling about these things). If it's on halt anyway, you might want to wait until tomorrow when Chuck's power rankings are posted, then add in the new people at the bottom (special exception being made for the Geese who should take L4Ds spot on the rankings).

Yes it will be a very fun and challenging cup i think. We are ready and willing to prove we are a top clan, and winning this thing will get us on the right track! Good luck to all competitors. :D

I think that this is a spectacular idea and wish there was something like this when I first joined a clan. I hope it works well for all involved!

Cheers.
