    It is nice to see that the 2019 clan season is off to a very competitive start.
    Conducted a quick review.
    There are 5 clans within 20 points of each other.
    And 8 clans within 50 points of each other.
    Looking forward to a very competitive race for the 2019 title.

    I think Russ would be pleased.
    Once the blemish is removed. 🙂

    It seems site administration has a problem with it.

    But the clan name for the blemish is fitting.
    And Russ knows how to suspend an * 😛

    last time the clan system was manipulated by the same people new rules were introduced, these have obviously failed as never addressed the most serious issues and its history repeating, the clan system works well if you remove the whole rating issue so there is a clan rating and a tournament rating, sounds simple but as i don't run the site i don't know how easy this is!

    Looking at McTayto's last 200 games, his rating for clan only games is close to 2000. His tournament rating over the same period is well below 500. His current rating for clan games is 1100.

    Hopefully Russ can fix this problem sooner rather than later.

    The question out there is how does Mctayto win nearly 4 times as many clan games as he loses while maintaining a rating of around 1100.

    The answer has already been provided in another thread detailing Mctayto's tossed tournament games.

    I'm sure Russ is watching and has seen the examples provided.
    And this has started happening almost immediately after Russ reinstated Mctayto for clan games.
    And lemondrop didn't wait long to get into the act.

    Are these guys just thumbing their noses at site administration ?

    Carobie went the way of the dodo. McGayo and Lemondrop will be following them into oblivion as well before long.

    Can't say I'll give the slightest flying feck either.

    I have to agree with you there. Time to put this to a stop, it has gone on too long even the people Lemondrop added aren't getting games they are just there. He may toss them a few but not enough to make any difference in what him and Mctayto are doing.

    They don't seem to be referring to Metallica having 72% win ratio last year or even higher ratio's in previous years.
    Guess they don't know about the goose and gander

    You do know of course that will be checked out on how many they are playing.

    Nice of you to drop by.
    Instead of blathering on about clans winning more challenges than they lose, which is what every clan is trying to do ....

    How about explaining to the clan community those tournament games you are tossing to sandbag your rating for clan games.

    I wasn't talking about you winning more clan games than you lose in my post.
    I was pointing out how your rating stays at 1100 when you win all those games.

    Answer the question.
    Why are you resigning tournament games that you are not losing ??
    You seem to be good at tossing accusations at everyone else.
    Yet you seem to be the only person doing the cheating.
    And this after Russ showed you some latitude in reinstating you.
    And now you are right back at it thumbing your nose at him.
