Anyways, I've been talking to a lot of new players who are...well really damn good. They're not a G-BOY or RWS, but hey they're still badass. I also know that RiP is looking for ONE new member...just ONE out of all these awesome players. So of course the idea springs upon us that HEY maybe we need a new clan...but here's where it gets freaky. I know some of you are gonna hate this, while others are intriqued, and still others are like...that won't work, but just hear me out.
You've seen American Idol right? Survivor Maybe? Road Rules? Real World? Any of those *Reality shows* will do. Anyways here's the concept. We attempt to put together a *dream team* of ricochet players. We have the best non-clan players play against each other and certain members who are already in clans could watch them and sorta vote on who they like. We'd have a panel of like 5 judges and we'd pick a certain amount of players...say 10, to be in a clan. Now after they're in the clan it's their deal...they sink...or they swim. It's up to them who the leader is and how they want to run things. I'll definitely help out a lot in this, but I just wanna get some feedback from you guys...so...is it THAT bad of an idea? or am I kinda onto something here?

that is the dumbest thing i've ever heard cloud..... If a group of ppl wanted to make a clan, they don't need our opinions on the matter.

Hah...hahahha I knew that was gonna happen. That's too funny. Alice...In my defense...I'm not trying to say our opinions are necessary...but think of it in this way. It's somewhat of a competition. The best non clan members....Now we don't have to make them be in a clan...but I dunno it'd be kind of cool to have some kind of thing to do. I dunno. Behind the scenes of the Real World popped on...and I somehow got into it....then came and wrote this....my head's kinda....yeah....

No Soul. pr0 is Newbie's clan...not Turtle's. He just took the name, but some of us who were playing with him said hey make your own clan and ditch the pr0 name. It has bad karma. This idea I came up with had nothing to do with that, except for the fact that I've noticed him and others wanting to have a badass clan. The plan I had was to make a clan full of the best players who aren't already in clans. I expected rants and flamers, but that's fine...I'm just waiting to see everyone's opinions...especially those of the one's who'd be involved...

I think cloud is just trying to instigate the creation of a new clan to help the community grow

You guys are taking clans to a competative level, a level that is far too high for this very small game-based community. A player shouldn't have to necessarily be very good at the game, they should just have to be liked by the clan to be recruited. If you make up all these extra merits for being a member of your clan--being in a social atmosphere that clans create start to become less and less enjoyable.
I think the clan systems these days are extremely flawed...

well, if u ask me i think clans are for bonding (don't say no one asked me:P), a group of people just playing to socialize. Its like when you go fishing, who's actaully their to fish? Thats how [CAKE] lasted so long i think, it was just a group of us (a small group) playing the game because it was fun and a nice break from cs, and we liked it enough to start a clan (revolutionary at the time B)) and we turned into half decent players. So just remeber to stick with the basics and what grew you to the game in the first place. Most clans disolve because it stope being fun.
You don't need to be in a clan to socialise, but if Cloud's offering monetary insentives to fight others... ;-)
