About Reddit Asylum
Reddit Asylum is a Verified Clan in the Reddit War Clan System. The clan started in the winter of 2013-2014 and was verified in August, 2015.
Reddit Asylum is a friendly clan with members of all ages. On average we are probably older than most Reddit clans. We farm aggressively and make steady progress on our bases. We war 24/7 and we like winning. See war rules, below.

How to Join Reddit Asylum
To join Reddit Asylum, you must first read the rules for all Reddit War Clans and learn the password. There is one set of rules for all Reddit War Clans, and they are found here. Prospective members should read those rules and find the password. Once you have found the password, please apply in-game to our feeder, The Rabbit Hole, and include it in your application message. Applicants who can't find the password will be rejected.

Requirements for Admission to Reddit Asylum

  • The minimum requirements are level 65 or higher and level 5 archers. That said, meeting these requirements does not guarantee acceptance.
  • Is Asylum the clan for you? Like many reddit clans, we look for players who have patiently leveled their base. We fully subscribe to putting offense first when prioritizing your upgrades and believe that our members should adopt this policy as well. Hero Levels and Walls are important in this process, and should not be ignored when you reflect on whether you’d make a good member of this clan.
  • Leaders also look for heavy raiders with excellent loot income, friend in need ratios, attacks you’ve had so far in a season, war stars, etc.

Rules of Reddit Asylum
Most of our general rules are the same as the rules for all Reddit War Clans, however please read below for The Asylum’s clan-specific rules:

  • The Asylum will always be at war. During the wars that occur on the 1st and 3rd weeks of the season, your in game opt-out status will be honored no questions asked. We do consider the wars during the 2nd and 4th weeks to be mandatory, but if real life makes it so you can't war, or if an in-game upgrade greatly handicaps your war ability, just fill out our google opt out form, here, and your absence will be recorded. If you are consistently unable to war, you may be asked to leave our clan, as you might be in search of a more casual clan.
  • Read your clan mail. Leaders do not send out haikus, so you know if there is clan mail, it’s something important.
  • Be mature. Childish babble that spams up the chat annoys a lot of people in Asylum--especially during war. We don't like requests and serious questions about strategy scrolling off the chat because someone decides to chat "idk" as three one-letter chats. Keep your cool.
  • Be polite. We expect you to speak respectfully of and to each other. We do not tolerate slurs of any kind. Words like ♥♥♥♥ (I’m going to ♥♥♥♥ that base), gay, ♥♥♥♥, ♥♥♥♥♥♥ed, etc. will get you a swift kick or a ONE TIME warning depending on the severity of the offense. Swearing and off-color comments are not to be directed at specific people or hurtful in obvious ways.
  • Remain active in clan chat and via donations. Members are expected to pay attention to the chat, though, and if your donations and donation request make it obvious that you are on, you should answer questions put to you by leaders in the chat.
  • Be generous and donate as often as possible. We require 1000 donates per season. You must meet the donation minimum of the clan, but the minimum is not the maximum--donate whenever you have the opportunity.
  • Do not leech troops from other members of the clan. Do not request troops without filling requests first. We do not care how much you request as long as you maintain a 1:2 ratio. We will notice if you’re a mooch. Don’t be a mooch.
  • Members are free to request whatever troops they like. Members should only donate exactly what was requested. There is no time limit for requests. If someone requests a level 5 dragon and you find that the request has been unfilled for two hours, let it sit. We do not donate archers after so many minutes, and we have no problem with people requesting troops--now and then--that they cannot make themselves. Especially for war.
  • The Asylum has Groupme! This is a requirement of the clan. We use it for chat and socializing, but during war it is our preferred mode of planning. If you are accepted into The Asylum, please send the leaders a mod mail with your email address associated with Groupme and we’ll get you added to our chatroom. Our expectation is that you are in our chatroom by the time that you participate in your first war.


War
Asylum likes to win wars. We owe it to all members of the clan to do what we can to win all of our wars. We expect everyone to be a team player and to put the clan's final score above their personal goals in war. All of the war rules are designed to win at war.
With that in mind, here are the war rules:

  • Only donate TH9 max or higher troops to clan castles for war. We have TH10s and have TH9s with max troops. We do not need your level 5 archers! If you notice underleveled troops in your war cc, delete them and we’ll refill them as soon as possible.
  • Your war clan castle request needs to be specific. List the level or troop you want (level 3 dragon) and the amount of troops you’ll need. Do the math please!
  • Every member must make two good attacks. If you cannot make one or both of your attacks, please contact a leader (by reddit pm, in game chat, or groupme) to give us that heads-up. You will likely be forgiven. Otherwise, players that do not make both attacks will be kicked out of the clan. If you are kicked out of the clan for this (or any reason), you are free to re-apply after 24 hours.
  • A "good" attack brings an army with a reasonable chance for a three star TH9 and below. If you are attacking a TH10 going for 2 stars is acceptable. We kick players who snipe or loot grab in war. Sniping in war is not tolerated, ever.
  • We do not kick members for failed attacks with armies that are appropriate for the base you are attacking. War attacks to do not go according to plan 100% of the time, and we understand that. That said, we do want our members to get an understanding of the basics of attacking for 3 stars. We want to see members who actively are seeking to get better with their attacking skills. We will kick those who aren't willing to put in the effort to get better, and who aren't willing to learn from their failed attacks, or take advice.
  • Attack where you can get 3 stars. Since we will use all of our attacks, there is no need for someone to 2-star an open base instead of getting 3 on a base that has already been attacked. We will attack all the bases. Get as many 3rd stars with your attacks as you can. It is suggested that you attack lower than usual or opt out if your BK and/or AQ are upgrading.
  • No attacking a base that has been 3-starred without permission from a leader.
  • If you are ranked in the lower third of the clan, please make your attacks early in the war. "There's no one for me to attack" will not excuse a member. TH8s should not wait until the final six hours of the war to make their attacks. In close wars, this creates a lot of unnecessary stress for the TH9s and TH10s waiting to use their final attacks so as to max out the clan's final score.
  • Communicate and coordinate. This cannot be stressed enough. Share your attack plans in Groupme using an app like Skitch and our members and leadership can assist you with your strategy if it needs any tweaks. If a leader (Ryan, a co-leader, or an elder) asks that you attack a particular base or adjust your attacking habits, please do so. If you think it might be best for the clan for you to attack with only one or two stars as your goal, communicate this plan to a leader before you do your thing.
  • Members at TH8 are not allowed to attack TH9 or TH10 bases until all the TH8 bases are three starred. This rule is active for every war, regardless of the score. Once all of the enemy's TH8 and lower targets have been three-starred, TH8s are free to call bases and attack wherever they can add a star.

We use ClashCaller and call targets for both attacks. The war ID# will be given to you in clan mail and groupme.

  • Reserve 1 base at a time
  • Attack within your 4 hour reserve time
  • You can attack a base if the call is expired, but you still need to call it
  • Reserve a base for Both attacks
  • Log on after your attacks to record your scores
