    For those that are complaining about frequency.
    The community is a small one and is not really significant to the number of players.
    I think sc is collecting activity in Cg data or so and the rate is probably high so they decided to do it more often. Therefore I don't think they'll turn to the forums to know how people feel about it.
    I'm kinda worn out myself, but hey free stuff....I won't complain.

    Not seeing any increase in that behavior. Have seen a decrease in it.

    We had a couple of people that would do that but I showed them the door.

    I don't do it for poor performance in one of the Games and maybe not two of them. If it becomes a habit, I'm not going to let them bring morale down with this kind of continued activity.

    When we did see it, oddly, it was more likely to come from those that joined us for the Games.

    Needs to be some discretion used. We don't set minimum requirements. I use judgement. I consider any other benefits they bring tot he clan. If none and get minimum points in clan games, they will be looking for another place.

    Hmm .. clan games is a team activity no an individual competition. Having said that if there're people not contributing that is up to clan leadership. There are people who have legitimate reasons for not going whole hog on clan games (e.g. life can get in the way of everything).

    It is annoying and I really don't want to kick members for not participating in the grind fest. Maybe Supercell should give leaders the ability to set the minimum required points / percentage for members to qualify for the rewards?

    EDIT: By saying "leeches", I meant people doing one event just to qualify for the rewards
    This kind of thread is already floating on the forums and i and many player and Supercell believe its a clan management problem....
    This is what we do in our clan....we always push our clan with mails...anyone getting lower than 500 will be demoted, even if its a co-leader. We get our demotion news when anybody is getting demoted. So, its not my problem because our management is good...
    Cheers

    If you see them as leeches you are in the wrong clan...



    Unless said people litterally get no points for no reason, they arent leeches. They've contributed to the success of the games.

    I'm going to just start dropping my quote from an earlier thread on this subject, which talks about the clan games that just ended, because it has some, in my opinion, great anecdotal evidence that supports my view that any change to the minimum points required to earn rewards is a bad, bad idea.

    Some context: These clan games were 4 days in length, had an individual max of 3,000 points, and the top tier rewards were available at 50,000 points.

    50 people in the clan
    47 people listed in the Clan Challenge
    46 people completed at least 1 challenge

    50,490 points as of this post
    6 people maxed their points
    14 people (including the 6 above) earned at least 1500 points
    27 people earned less than 1000 points

    The above shows, to me, why it is vitally important to keep reward redemption available to all clan members that complete a challenge. Only 14 clan members earned 1500 points or above. Those "top 14" scored 33,370 clan points. Pretty good!

    However, the bottom 32 scored the other 17,120 points. I understand the "motivation" factor that people bandy about, but how many would complete as many challenges that they did, or any for that matter, if they knew they couldn't earn, say, 1500 points in order to collect the higher rewards? Would many of them have simply not done challenges? Could be!

    But regardless, we would not have cleared the top tier rewards without those 32 clan contributors. Because of them, we are able to collect the top tier reward. I have no ill will towards the two people that earned only 50 points in the games. Both had real life commitments that kept them from participating in these games. They jumped on to do a single challenge, they should earn the rewards. Why on earth would I want to punish members of the clan?

    Anyways, I'll step off the soap box. I just wanted to give that quick update now that we've finished the games.

    Cheers!

    They're not leeching if they score zero are they? If they score 100 every week then they are leeching. Not sure how this can be up for debate.

    If they score 100 every week then they are increasing the clan's points by 100 every week.

    That's not leeching, that's contributing.

    Well there are other ways to put it, like “contributed fewer points than some of their fellow clan mates would have liked to see”, in which case fellow clan mates/coleader/leader might mention it and ask if they couldn’t maybe help out a bit more to spread the load. Well that is unless they are new members and not contributing other ways, in which case you might look under the bed for your kicking boot.
