| Author | An interesting point regarding the Competition among MCs. |
|---|
Since the time for a battle at high lvl is longer, the clans with more lower lvl members have huge advantage. Let's look at the No.1 Clan, they have only several 14-15 players. And, There is even no player of lvl 14 and beyond in the Clan of "Guardians of Russia†"
So, the competition is somewhat unfair. |
| More unfair is the practice of a certain MC(s) recruiting active event players for the sole purpose of the competition. |
| i know i cant compete with the lower levels for most wins |
| But high players are normally more active, so can't see why the crying game starts |

actually thats just intelligence |
| Well, don know about that, but its unfair to lvl 3-5 and lvl 14-15 be counted in same way, battle for lvl 3-5 (in demons event) last 20 minutes, and for 14-15 it could take more than an hour, so uper lvl's play one battle while lower lvl's play 3, and than theyr wictorys are counted the same. dont get me wrong, i'm not afected by this, i only played 5-6 battles, but it seems to me a little unfair. |
| #6 Agreed, but it's like complaining that slimmer guys have an advantage at pull ups because they have to pull up or at sprinting. It's true, but nothing can be done about it, unless you make separate categories for each level, but it complicates things too much. |
I take your point, and it is a sound one, though I disagree with your conclusion that it is unfair.
Fairness is simply about everyone having the exact same opportunities, which is consistently applied.
Since every rule is applied the same to all clans, and any recruiting of players of whatever level they want, is the same to all clans, then the point is not about fairness. Sure the mix of levels a clan has ended up with, through whatever circumstances it has arisen will give one clan an advantage, however this is not unfair as the recruiting circumstances are equal. It is choice (ish) of the clan to choose to have a certain spectrum of player levels, or to appeal to a certain group that then causes it to have a certain spectrum of player levels. |
If they make low level fights more difficult to take more time then low level players will lose all the time. There is no way to balancing it unfortunately.
P.S: WGW and Dragon Slaughter have about the same average level per player. And a fight for level 14-15 doesn't take much more time than one at level 12-13. Also look at Elite Warriors, they have the most high level players and are doing very good. You just need more active members :) |
You just need more active members
Or you recruit some people just to get an edge in the contest, like Pantheon said in Post #2.... |
That wont help
for example; los spammed a free invite to this guy

Look at his combat log, i count 0 zero military clan vanguards, meaning his contribution towards the clan rankings is ... 0 |
| It's not completely "fair" about the timing, the low level battles are difficult for them too I'm pretty sure their difficult increase as much as for everyone. The only problem is while we fight 1 they can fight 2-3 and that gives them certain advantage, and nothing can be done there by admins I think. but anyway if you're an undead like me won't find it too hard to keep on track. |

Maybe I am misinterpreting what you mean by "free", but if you mean that they just let them into the clan for free, then you are wrong. He payed the 10,000 gold.
Now, I don't know whether or not certain clans are openly recruiting players to gain the upper edge in the event, or whether certain players found this a profitable time to join an MC. |
@12. I'm sure everyone is impressed by your ability to only sleep 4 hours in 2 days and have no other obligations, or anything else, that would pull you away from the computer.
Have you purchased one of those nasa suits so you don't need to wee? I hope you are living on more than 2 minute noodles and red bull for health reasons. |
@14 You don't have to stay in PC all the time, there is the healing time, the waiting for the battle to start time and etcs...
It's all about multitasking abilities. |
@14
Who are you that knows what everyone else feels??
I think Nanda does a great job in these events, to bad she is not i WGW :o(
But all in all its about having fun, and i think Nanda its having loads of fun in these events, like most of us! |
^^ In my opinion, regardless of my current level/MC, it's simply fair.
Clan competition is a whole different thing, not based on individual fights/levels like top 10 or top 50. Recruits more low levels will have certain advantages like recruit higher ones, variety will counts and lower levels don't have to fight for more time because don't have many units (experience).
>>> for xCNxNanda: Not everyone doing multi tasks around PC/home but most important is having fun. Anyway, not easy to do that at high level, great achievement ;) |
You may have a point. But we all know the increase of diificulty after every win, a low level won't be able to cope with the difficulty increase after a while. A group of 3 level 5s can only win so much before hitting the proverbal brick wall, given thier limited troops and options.
A group of high level players, say a group of 3 13s, can manage the difficulty curve better, and have more options to cope. (Need to make sure your hell reapers are contained? Find a magic build clan member to Mass Delay him back, your vamps need to last longer? Find an Elf to have his druids stone you, etc).
Besides, these high level players can easily break up the team and form new teams with lower level teammates in the clan, even if they have as many wins as the high level guy since the average level would be lower, but the higher level can tank it for the lower levels. An option not very available for clans with only low levels.
In the end, its the variety of members along with the number of menbers thst count, along with skill and dedication |
I do agree it's not a "fair" competition. A fair competition should be something like minor tournament or ST.
This clan war competition is just to see how much time your clan member have to spend in this game, that's it. For those clans which many members have to work at daytime, they have no chance to win. This is what happening in DS now. |
The attachment to fair is rubbish. Hunt records aren't fair as some people can't afford enchanted arts. Survival tournaments aren't fair because I'm not OCD enough to spend the time moving my units around every time I have missile unit enemies. Mixed Tournaments aren't fair because sometimes I get paired with an AFK or a person who does bad play (or maybe I suck, but get paired up with people so good they carry me).
Accept the tournaments for what they are. Get some cheese to go with you whine people. |
