Why wasn't I informed sooner that this event wasy going to launch on the 23rd? No clans have signed up for it due to a lack of communication on the MODs behalf. But, I guess this could be a blessing in disgiuse.
I was planning on hosting an internal event for DR when I noticed that TW was underway... I dont see how I could have missed it, but se la vi.
We'll be joining the next one for sure.. provided we get like... a few weeks notice about the next event's starting date.

I'd like to host an internal DR event for C&C based on your event rules as a runner up to the event. I'd like to give all my new recruits a heads up on how ER works first hand so the MODS wont have their hands full come game week and also, Its a convenient system to use for these kinds of battles.
I'm unsure about the dates, which is why I enquired about the tool itself. When will it be opperational?

thats a great Idea why noone in anyother clan has ever thought this up is beyond me(oh wait I did for TFO for SWBF2 but that was just screenshots of what to report). The stats should be all coded and ready to go just remind your recruits about balckballing I have a feeling if you tell them early they wont do it (my 2 cents)
The people will report:
Structures Created
Structures Lost
Structures Destroyed
Enemy Struct. Captured
Units Created
Units Lost
Units Killed

Dravin, you realize reporting all that or uploading a screenshot is unnecessarily time-consuming don't you? I'll have to take screenshots or get numbers everymatch. Can't we have something simpler? Something like win/loss units killed and units lost would be more than enough In my opinion of course. Also not all clans may be interested in keeping track of so many stats per match or taking a SS every match.

But if units lost is gonna be reported, you make one of Nods best units, the Fanatics, totally useless...
If buildings/units created is gonna be reported, it would be extremely easy to exploit, everyone would just build tons of silos/powerplants and infantry/buzzers

yes I know that reporting and takeing screenshots is time consuming but without screenshots how are you gonna report your stats? and without the screenshots your win becomes null and void plus the fact how are we gonna double check your results and if ther is a dispute and you dont have a screenshot well lets just say a pic is worth a thousand words,dont worry the win/loss will be reported when you submit your win. Lets see how the first Tib week goes we are open to suggestions to make things easier on us and you and if there is a problem we can have a captin's meeting about how to change it. as for the fanitics how do they become useles even online they get reported as units lost be my guest and build as many power plants and silos you want but if you dont have any forces out it will make for a short game. (you should see some of my replays...lol) hope this sorts some things out if not drop me a line.

I guess we'll comply with the screenshots rule.
Also, if any member from my club participates in blackballing, I'd like to be informed about it from an ER MOD. I wont even dispute him/her being removed from the event as a punishment.

takeing screenshots has been the longest standing rule at ER so why would that change just cause of the game. Dont worry about black balling its to early to even talk about this but I will pull aside the respective clan captins and give them the heads up before anything is done.

"but without screenshots how are you gonna report your stats?"
No need to use one until someone challenges my word in my opinion. By the way, can I sell everything when I've already lost so I don't have to watch my base dying slowly? That's a hateful thing to do. Also, Fanatics get reported as units lost that's usually not very good if you're counting that as a stat. And about the power plants I could do it just for more points when I'm winning and can spare the Tiberium, that's not nice eh?

"No need to use one until someone challenges my word in my opinion." Thats the very reason we look at the screenshots not that we dont trust you its to make it a fair and even playing field,lets say you report a match and mess up and give yourself less points (I have seen this happen) now if you notice it and dont have a screenshot how can you say well I messed up with the screenshot you have proof and there will be noone calling you a cheater if you have the ss to back up your claim cause I know the person you beat wont say hey you gave yourself less points (ive seen that happen as well)plus it has been a staple at all ER events Ive been in back when SWBF1 was the newest event. dont worry everything will even itself out in the end stat wise,as far as the spaming the 1.9 patch took care of that. "can I sell everything when I've already lost so I don't have to watch my base dying slowly?" to each his own if thats your strat so be it ive done it a few times on a ranked game when my "teammate" wouldnt help me and all I had was a refinary left whats the sence of makeing money when you cant build?, and thats a stat we are NOT useing for obvious reasons. hope that clears some things up for ya. if you need any more help feel free to drop me or any other ER mods a line.
