Clan Challenges

A "Clan Challenge" would be an invitation you set up in your own clan for one of your members to attack you.
My favorite part about this game is attacking, but when you have a shield and about an hour of free time, its not worth it to blow the shield and risk losing more resources.. and single player isnt worth it. This is a way for people to still have fun battles while holding a shield. Also helping clan members to improve..
You can make your base open for a challenge, allowing anyone in your clan to attack it. The attack on your base would be just like in matchmaking... You use up troops that you can't get back, traps will be activated, even barb king / queen / clan castle troops will deploy to fight. Results will be the same as in matchmaking... You can lose those clan castle troops, barb king/queen sleep it off.. And the attacker risks his elixir he put into his army.
The difference with this and matchmaking is you cannot loot resources. Storages would be used as containers for your "Clan Trophies", which would be what your attacker is going for.
The "Clan Trophies" are a separate ranking system inside your own clan. It ranks the members accordingly on who has obtained the most.
This would give clans new ways to promote/demote members, tell if members are involved enough, making it a requirement that you attack so many times... You could also see a W/L ratio next to each members name.
The biggest reason this would be necessary is it allows serious feedback on your base from the people you talk to all the time. Watching a replay is helpful, but don't you with you could chat with that person and ask them what they thought the weak spot was and what they would improve... This allows for members to give each other an attackers POV and tips on how to improve.
Leaving a clan resets your clan trophies, just like donations. This will make members want to stay longer and build with the clan.
Lemme know what you guys think on the idea.

Sorry this is so long..
To sum it up, you can make your base "open for challenge" and your clan members could accept the challenge and attack you. Same battle style, lose troops, clan troops deploy, barb king, traps, etc.
The only loot they can get from this are "clan trophies" they can loot some of your clan trophies, and a few extra to always increase the amount, from your storages instead of looting elixir/gold. (Clan trophies are different from regular trophies)
The idea behind this is to get your clan mates to talk to you about their strategy behind the weakness of your base and then show you what they would do to beat it. Gives you a replay to learn from and a chance to talk to the actual attacker and better find your bases weakness.
Also allows people to have a bit more fun when on a lunch break at work, or too busy to play for several hours, and you have a shield you don't want to break. Get in an attack if you can vs an actual base instead of single player.

I thin you shouldn't lose the troops you lose, so it's more of a simulation. I know that would be a ton of fun. Also, the traps aren't triggered. Your clan is supposed to be your team, and if you are triggering their traps, that's kinda costly. Also you shouldn't lose clan castle troops. That's just my opinion however.

Yeah the losing of troops only comes from my concern that that's all people would wanna do.. And then matchmaking wouldn't be as much fun. Idk, I'm probably wrong. But traps wouldn't bother me, it's probably about a 10,000 gold cost for spring traps/bombs (not including the big bomb)
That one doesn't seem worth it anyways...
But yeah spending the elixir doesn't seem as fun, but maybe if its all free they could do so u can only accept a challenge every 20 minutes just like clan troops..

I like the idea, but there are obvious things that need to be ironed out.

I've often wished the game had some sort of simulation mode where you could invite people in your game center friends list or clan to attack you.

It has been brought up before. Personally I think it should work just like the game does now, but no resources or trophies are exchanged and no shields are given. Troops used and traps triggered disappear just like they do now.

Yeah just a mock battle to find weaknesses and help clan mates.

i like this idea it creates this mind set of competition in your clan. Could this be created into a poll ?

no clue how to do that, im new to the forums.

Do they get to take you trophies and money too

no. only loot could be a new kind of trophy called clan trophies. another way to rank players in the clan. showing who is being active and involved in helping the clan grow with advice and insight into their other members bases.

Ok then this is awsome i hope they make this update have u read my clan challenges scroll lower

How do you know if any of the Dev's like the idea you posted? Will any of them respond to an idea they like? Or do they work on it without telling anyone? A couple days into the forums so I don't know how they handle the ideas here.
