Once I nail down a few more details, I'm going to start hammering at you guys posting about Clan X and Clan Y wants to play but then you fuckers don't tell me shit about how many people are actually going to play and if you're going to split yourselves into sub teams within your clan or not. *shakes old man fist* I'm also working behind the scenes to get you guys something better for 1st/2nd places finishes other than my mighty handshake. Stay tuned. I want to clarify something real quick. If there was MAYBE possibly *wink wink* *nudge nudge* HOPEFULLY a cash prize..... Splitting it amongst 4 people is alot easier than 10 people.... But that's up to you guys to decide. There is nothing that prevents bigger clans from breaking themselves down into smaller Clan [LighT] Team A Clan [LighT] Team B etc. But if Team B of only 4 people wins, ONLY team B and those 4 players get the possible prize money. If Clan [LighT] goes at this with 20 people on the roster, then the prize is split EVENLY among those 20 people, even if HALF of them don't play or quit halfway through. Football 3rd string kickers still get a SuperBowl ring even if they never kick the entire season. Hope that helps some people. Also if people think there may be a better name than Americas Clan Wars. I'm all ears. I've heard some people say it seems confusing to say. Some people have recommended American ProLeague Americas ProLeague InterAmerica Clan War I dunno. Let me hear the thoughts of the masses. | ||

This is very important to those wanting to participate and I've had several discussions with differing people on Bo1 vs Bo3 formats. The pros and cons. I will cast a tie breaker vote based on what I feel is going to be, at this time, the most beneficial for the League. Bo1 will be the format of choice for Season 1. Based on all the other INDIVIDUAL tournaments taking place. HAY. SK. ESL. Clash for Char... There are plenty of Bo3 opportunities out there. For a Clan/Team setting. I feel Bo1 will be the best way to start out this Clan League. I'm not opposed to doing Bo3 for season 2 and I will reopen the polls at that time in the future and ask the community once again to voice their opinion on it. For now, again, the decision is final. Bo1 format which will be held officially every Sunday at 10am PST. | ||

If for some reason you have 2 out of your 3 people NOT show up for a match during the week.... See rule 2. "TO ALSO CLARIFY, one player could possibly sub for his entire team and even doing 1v2 or 1+1AI v 2. The caveat to that is it can only be done ONCE per player per season." So if Player X plays 2 1v1's and in the 2v2 AND the ACE match. It doesn't break that rule. It's only if that same player has to play every single game during that specific match vs another team that he uses his once in a season sub for all players card. So to speak. Hope that helps. | ||

I need a FINAL COUNT of how many TEAMS/CLANS will be participating BY THE END OF NEXT WEEK. Friday the 25th by 12pm PST. YOU (YES YOU) NEED TO PM ME. I need your Clan/Team name, how MANY people are in your Clan. I also need to know if you are breaking your Clan down into smaller SUB-teams. Examples: "Hi, this is DerpaDerp of Clan Derp. We have 20 players. We will be playing as one SINGLE team. Here are the names of everyone that will be playing. We want to be considered as a US-West clan." (This is fine, that means you have lots of people to choose from each week to play your matches and lots of subs as needed.) "Hi, this is PoopyPoo of Clan Poo. We have 10 players but we are going to have TWO teams. Poo Team A and Poo Team B. There will be 5 players on each team. The players on Poo Team A are ... and the players on Poo Team B are... Both teams are considered US-West. (OR you can have 1 be West and 1 be East. Just tell me!) (This is a well balanced approach!) "Hi this is SCC-Faust of the StarCraft Confederacy. I have no friends, except like these 2 other guys I just found so I guess they are my friends. I don't know. We're only 3 players on this team. Their names are ... and we are US-East." (Be careful! If people don't show up to matches you could find yourself losing lots of points for not having enough players showing up to play their games!) THE FIRST MATCHUPS/MAPS WILL BE RELEASED AUGUEST 27TH! THE FIRST OFFICIAL MATCHS WILL BE PLAYED NO LATER THAN SEPT 3RD! (That means you have between August 27th and Sept 3rd to play your matches!) Sept 3rd at 10am PST is the OFFICIAL start time to play your match vs your opponent if neither person was able to play their match earlier in the week. You will meet on the HOME Teams server in the official channel. If 10min passes and your opponent is a no show, the other team can sub someone in playing for that person's race. If NOBODY from the other team shows up, you can PM me with a screenshot showing you having typed /time (This will give me a timestamp/date to verify) and you will get the point via walkover. THE OFFICIAL MAPPOOL These are not in order and will be rotated around each week. 1v1 Map Pool Fighting Spirit Neo Medusa Blue Storm Circuit Breaker Sin Peaks of Baekdu Tau Cross 2v2 Map Pool Vampire Hannibal Fighting Spirit Fortress SE | ||

If after Aug 25th you're a team of 3 and one player suddenly drops out leaving you short handed. I will review these issues on a case by case basis. If I deem it okay, you can recruit ONE new person to replace the person that dropped out but I want to STRESS that if your team starts having problems like that already, things are probably NOT going to go well for you anyways... | ||

I've managed to secure funding of prizes for participants via a bonus check from my company that I was NOT expecting. So you heard it here first guys, this is coming from ME personally. $100 to the winning team. $50 to 2nd place team. $25 to 3rd place team. Money won will be split EVENLY among team members, the more members per team, the less each individual person gets but obviously MORE bragging rights for the team as a whole. (Bragging rights is worth more honestly.) I know this is not OMG WOW money but this is a STEP UP from winning nothing before. If I am able to secure additional funding from private donors or crowd funding, I'll update the prize pool accordingly. Also I'm changing the name of this from Americas Clan Wars (ACW) to Pan-American Team League (PATL) | ||
