Thota vs BpB - the final chapter

So what is the story with Thota vs the BulletProofBandits?
The thread has been locked for 2 weeks,
but the title has been updated a few times, currently listed as:
[CC2]-THOTA vs. BPB [20-17 of 41]
So i assume there are 4 games to go.. and the Bandits would need all 4 to actually win.
Now i am very new to all this clan warfare stuff, this in fact was the 1st thread of it's kind i had ever followed.
I mentioned earlier that i found it all to be most fascinating.. and i was particularly intrigued by the personality of the 2 clans in that thread... i am soooo disappointed that it was locked and has remained locked for 2 weeks, possibly forever? or at least until the challenge itself is over?
Why would that be? Thota is sure to win. Wouldn't they be happy to post "in your face" in that thread?
Or is it that this is an embarrassingly close victory? my prior impression was that this would have been a rout... That Thota would have dominated and destroyed them...
so what gives? are the Bandits really THAT GOOD? or is Thota that weak without Blitz?
Or were my prior impressions all wrong? and for how long?
In the most basic sense, i had assumed Thota was THE dominate (and maybe even undefeated) clan,
while the Bandits were nothing more than a social clan...
Evidently, my prior assumptions were far from accurate.
So the Bandits are good enough to come that close to beating the best clan,
or is there a stronger clan than Thota?
in any case... I really enjoyed the difference between the two...
It was like the disciplined Roman Army meeting the wild warriors of Boudicca...
or the dignified British Army defending against the guerrilla warfare tactics of the American Colonists...
