    Dive is one of the few in that clan who doesn't sandbag.
    Everyone knows the clan system needs a separate clan rating.
    It was done for the clubs so it can be done for the clans too.
    Clans are dying so maybe nothing will change.
    I challenge you here and now to back up the claim you just made!!
    We will wait (forever) because, once again, you can't prove your twisted logic.

    Even more perplexing to me, is why does a person who does even play clan chess voice, or even have, an opinion on the topic? Do your fancy yourself as some sort of mouthpiece for the uneducated?

    You just accused his clan for Sandbagging except for one person, what did you expect to happen. Trust me when I tell you he doesn't need to be drinking to tell you what he told you.

    Best not to get involved in things you're not a part of anyways! You just recently joined a clan are playing in 9 games under this name anyways. Are you afraid to tell everyone who you were before? It really does appear that way to me. If you are going to make accusations be prepared to back them up with some proof.

    Either ........
    You haven't read my posts.... meaning that you are ill-informed to make the comments that you do.

    Or .......
    You have read my posts.... meaning that you are simply being a troll.

    Either way, there isn't much more for me to offer to your drivel.

    You might just want to stick to the debates forum where you will do quite well alongside the likes of averagejoe, mott, metalbrain and other "intellectuals". 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    You know when your arm wrestling and your arm is going down and you know you can't stop but try anyways? Kind of what you're doing now, fighting a losing battle.

    @Very-Rusty

    The only one losing is the clan feature.
    One time there was almost 10 pages of full clans.
    Now there is one page.
    People throwing casual games to keep the ratings down so they can win clan games caused it.

    Nobody should have hundreds and hundreds of more wins than losses.
    Those kind of numbers show the sandbagging.

    It's easy to fix with a separate clan rating.
    I don't care about some previous vote 🙄

    The clan feature is dying...actually it's quite dead already.

    As long as there are clans it not dead.

    I wish you'd show examples of where people threw casual games to keep their rating down. I am not saying it never happens, but I would love you to show me some examples of it. How do you prove a game was thrown? It could possibly have been a blunder you know what I mean you've made them in your games, and I know you didn't mean to.
    I had over 1600 clan challenge wins in 13 years as you know. Show me some examples of where I may have thrown games? No one has been able to find any up to this point. You may find where I made a blunder and left a piece hanging, but it wasn't intentional. How do you prove it was?

    I actually DO agree with separate clan ratings, but you know sandbagging could be done there too? I will not say how in here but would be more than happy to tell you how in a P.M., so we would be no further ahead in my humble opinion.

    I believe we all know he was here before under another name, but afraid to say who he was.

    Yes, I have a pretty good idea.

    Has there been any discussion of using something comparable to TER but for clans specifically?

    To me a feature like this with some substantial rating look-back period would clean things up at least some without creating a bunch of different ratings, that most have no desire to track.

    You know on second thought, you're starting to sound like robbie carrobie, he was always crying about the clan feature as you're doing now. Any relation there, like I mean a really close one? 🙂
