Toggle players on/off for Clan wars

opt out, opt in. Might be more than 3 lines of code.

I'm really tired of kicking and inviting every war. Just like changing your war base every war in the days.

Would hate for a good player to forget his opt out switched on. I prefer to let them think about it.

Maybe we should have 3 days wars? opt out/preparation/war :)

then when they reach the maximum they leave and join again restricting it wont help alot

what? why?
well the maximum number of people in war is 50 derp...so because opt in out will be a thing wont change war,you should still be only have to chose from 10 to 50 people with multyplays of 5,and what exactly is a half clan war? say i am in a clan with 50 people,only 25 wanna war,agenst a clan with 25 members that all wanna war,what is the difference?

They never said they wouldn't add an opt-out feature:

The coding is simple but i have a feeling coc isn't doing so well and their priority is new content. But the consensus isn't the lack of new content but what they did to the find match which is actually turning people away. All games are "right now" so ultimately they fix the game for TH9+ or I will see you guys in the next one.

You act like it's a matter of programming difficulty rather than a matter of principle.

As much as I'd like an Opt-in/out, I can see the flaws that will result in it. I can see how it can be exploited, especially from top clans who are typically full or have never had less than 45 man wars.

Imagine if Kings Rock cherry picked their top 10 best fighters and started a war. With the terrible mismatching in CW, I can only cringe at the thought of who they could possibly get matched with.

Or the opposite. A clan takes their bottom 10 players so they get matched with easy 10 man wars just to pad their CW win stats.

Or how about a clan of 30 people but 15 are constantly opting out? They never get any good matches and half their clan doesn't even participate.

Or the clan that has their real good players opting out, leaving them with Premies and Lowbies to fend for themselves in unbalanced matched wars?

Or how about a clan with 20 people that have 11 people opt out? No clan wars for them.



I forgot which Mod or SC Staff said it but I understand the sentiment.

It's called "CLAN WARS" not "Certain people in the Clan Wars".

When a CLAN goes to war, everyone must fight, everyone must sacrifice... some may fail, some may perish, but everyone MUST fight. The survival of your clan depends on it. If you can't depend on your fellow clans mate at a time of war, do you deserve to win?

This is coming from someone who've lost quiet a few wars. We've actually put ourselves on Hiatus from war to allow everyone to farm to strengthen themselves and their armies so we can become better War Machines.

I am not following your logic at all...the least important criteria for match up is number of people. SC's formula for strength of base & overall strength of clan is not known in detail but they provided the components of it previously. If the top 10 of Kings Rock go for a 10/10 match up, they will be matched with similar opponent within whatever range of the match up formula SC allows. The challenges with the match up process are a different thread, but it's not like top 10 fully maxed bases are going to be matched up with a clan of 10 preemie Th10s. And tons of clans are already doing exactly what you suggest is such a problem - forming "war clans" with low levels of members, but there's nothing wrong with that and it isn't some guarantee you'll get some easy match up.

And right now, yes you have to have 10 people to have a war...but if people push a button to opt our vs leave the clan to opt out, i am missing how a lack of an opt out doesn't result in the same problem - if you don't have 10 active participants who want to war, you can't war..i personally don't think having a clan of 20 go to war with just 9 active is such a great idea either. What fun, CWs turns into a mostly inactive affair in which majority of attacks don't get used. The very best war I've participated in were draws with all attacks used by both clans (and clearly we were well matched since it was a tie).

I agree it is not a code issue but a principle one. I can see why SC and users would want to keep it the way it is now as it forces participation. We also do the kick and invite back and it seems those members are slowly failing to return, maybe they go join a non-war clan.

That is the real solution, if you don't want to war join a clan that doesn't war or wars at the frequency you want...

Vacations, etc... are so infrequent that leaving the clan is easy. You could also split your clan into a war and non-war clan that people can go between. I know some people will say that people forget to leave, well if they know they are going on vacation and they can not remember to leave the clan, they are probably not a quality member anyway...

Overall, I don't care if they implement it or not.

Yeah most likely

That's sort of how wars work. People get matched up based on their bases, not their skills and I don't see a problem with sending out the elites to fight. It probably won't happen too often to this degree since other people would want to fight and start a riot... which could be a reason against opt out but I don't think that there would be that extreme dictatorship in a clan. Or the people could simply leave if they want to war but can't

Nothing wrong with padding scores. Like Levels, they don't have any real effect anyways
Or how about a clan of 30 people but 15 are constantly opting out? They never get any good matches and half their clan doesn't even participate.
I disagree that war size is what makes matches good. Also, why does it matter if they don't participate? War is just one dimension of the game
Or the clan that has their real good players opting out, leaving them with Premies and Lowbies to fend for themselves in unbalanced matched wars?
Clans are matched according to their clan strength so how would it be unbalanced (for the lowbie part at least)? If anything, they have the advantage since the really good players t give them troops. For the premie part, I don't know how the premie factor affects the clan strength because rush town halls might not matter too much depending on how the match making system works
Or how about a clan with 20 people that have 11 people opt out? No clan wars for them.
Why would 11 people opt out? The main reason people would opt out is to not hurt their clanmates in war so there is no good reason if it causes them to be unable to war. Besides, they could just recruit a random person and start a war if needed. Yeah it might end up being an inactive/hopper but this doesn't make the situation any worse than it was before so it's not a real negative part of opt out

Twister said it according to coathanger I believe. Anyways, it's not like everyone fights in a war. I don't see how sitting out makes you not part of the team. In sports, there are benched players who don't participate always (yeah I know that they can sub in though). In war, there are also people on sick leave and people who work to help the combatants but aren't attacking themselves. No one would say that they aren't part of the military so I don't see why everyone in a clan needs to be an attacker too

Also, based on what twister said, I feel like he doesn't like people leaving and returning after war is found too but they can't stop that issue so they leave it alone
