      IRC Nickname: bto Group: Emeritus Posts: 3815 Member No.: 196 Joined: February 3, 2008 Total Events Attended: 332    | Thats really low...doesn't give an accurate measure of strength for WG. I'm strongly against this. Is WG now a place so hungry for power, that we forget the principles (ima sound really nerdy right now) of honor that we fought so hard to preserve? We're losing our sence of community, and becoming so obsessed about winning that we're willing to cut our own friends and family to win. We've become hypocrites by telling powerhungry applicants that this isnt the right place for them. This is not the WG what WG stands for, and this isnt the WG I joined. Furthermore, if this ever leaks, it will damage WG badly. Our reputation has been improving, and this could really endanger it. The CWPL also helps our organization and skills. If we're so worried about losing, maybe we should be working on prowess rather then creating "tactics" like these. So what if we make the top 2? Do you think we can pull this crap in the next league? As we gain ranks, the only way we can become better is by honing our skills and organization. Lets do this the fair way. This is NOT what WG stands for. I will attend this practice, but im telling you right now for all it will do. I will not attend the cwpl matched options if we're resorting to tactics like these to win. -------------------- bto  Ex-WG Warlord  "It is our direction, not our intentions, that lead us to our destinations." | ||

I have to agree with Zach here. We'll probably have a higher number of people than them. Yes, our lowest levels will probably get cut. I don't think that we need to intentionally cut more people in order to try to find a competitive edge. This will happen everytime, and our lower levels will never get a chance to fight in a matched up. Our lower levels should get a chance to fight, assuming they are still there after we have matched ops with RE. I don't see why we should cut them. It might give us an edge, but they showed up. They've been training hard for the clan, and they deserve to fight. It also gives them good experience. Soon enough, they'll become higher levels, and their experience will come into handy. If you only make an exclusive core group of people to fight at matched ops, it'll never be any fun, and no one else will ever get better at matched ops. EDIT: Forgot this part. After saying that though, I'm not saying that this is a bad strategy, if our goal is to win at all cost. However, I think that we're more than that. We want to be a great fightning clan, but we also want to be be a good community and help out our lower levels. I'm sure a ton of people have thought of this idea, myself included, but just don't think its great for the entire clan. --------------------  | ||

 IRC Nickname: Gusmighster Group: Emeritus Posts: 1360 Member No.: 46 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 67 | Have to agree with Zak. Since when has WG been this sort of power hungry clan? We haven't and we aren't. We can beat RE, we can beat them with our organization and toned warrers. We don't need these kind of tactics, it is totally against what WG as a clan is like. And anyway, at least check the rules before making tactics like this.. 90%. --------------------  | ||

 IRC Nickname: Angus0000 Group: Emeritus Posts: 705 Member No.: 572 Joined: May 3, 2008 Total Events Attended: 128 | Well since I'm a relatively low level and usually get cut anyways, should I even show up to this? I really don't have a problem getting cut normally because it just means the other clan couldn't pull so well. This new plan is much different. For one, it shows an incredible lack of faith in the ability of the lower-leveled members of the clan, like myself. It also could result in less activity in wars, as members who know they're most likely on the chopping block would see no point in preparing for a war they can't fight in. --------------------  | ||
