@lemondrop saidPending means that a challenge hasn't been acted on, it's just sitting there doing nothing. An active leader gets those out of there as soon as possible; either started or denied. That's why we only have one. A clan having 20 pending means there's 20 challenges sitting there collecting dust.
the number of pending challenges portrays an active vibrant clan
one with few challenges marks a stale dormant clan with a lazy leader
Rusty is spot on
More 'pending' challenges means more 'nothing' is getting done. Hardly something to brag about. Fewer 'pending' challenges means the clan leader is actually doing something about them, not collecting them like stamps in an album.
You have your concepts backwards.
