- Battles will be carried out on MCSG servers.
- These in game rules will be implemented:

Spoiler

- No use of banned items (including but not limited to the Stone Sword Tree On Valleyside University).
- Spectating is not allowed.
- Once a lobby has entered into pre-game, the match will be officially in motion, EXCEPT in the case which a team is represented by a disadvantage in lobby and has taken this disadvantage into pre-game. In this scenario, the disadvantaged team will be allowed to pull out of the server DURING pre-game to redo the round. If the disadvantaged team does not pull out after pre-game, the round must go on.
- The battle will First to 3 or First to 5
- The minimum amount of people per battle is a 6v6, while the maximum amount is 8v8. If a team lacks the amount of people at the date of the battle, they are allowed to reduce the player amount to a minimum of 6 until they are able to get more players on. However, a concerted effort must be made to get more players on, and if any players do arrive, they must be played. If a team is unable to field 6 players, they must play with a disadvantage.
- Any maps may be chosen, but must be agreed upon by both teams. If maps cannot be decided, then the default maps will be: Valleyside University, SG4, TSG2, Holiday, SG Highway, Turbulence, and Alaskan Village.
- Each team will be able to veto one map from the pool before the beginning of the battle. This map cannot be picked by either team for the duration of the battle. If they wish, teams may choose not to veto a map.
- The team that lost the previous round gets to choose the next map (with the exception of map vetos).

The following are the general rules for the Leaderboards:

Spoiler

- Clans will be organized based upon their ELO rankings. ELO is gained every time a clan wins a battle, and is forfeited every time a clan loses a battle. More ELO will be gained for beating a higher ranked clan, and more will be lost for losing to a lower ranked clan.
- All ELO calculations will be handled by the Sr. Staff using this calculator: http://www.3dkingdoms.com/chess/elo.htm
- A "k" value of 64 will be used for all calculations.
- Clans may challenge any clan up to three ranks above them, or down to two ranks below them.
- Once a clan has been challenged, the battle MUST be accepted within 48 hours and played within the next 7 days or the clan being challenged will forfeit the match.
- Once a clan challenges or is challenged by another clan, they are locked in, and cannot be challenged by anyone else until the conclusion of their battle.
- If a clan declines a match, it will count as a loss in terms of ELO. However, if a clan disbands before the battle is fought, no ELO will be gained by the challenging team.
- If a clan fails to accept multiple challenges in a row, they WILL be removed from the leaderboards.
- After battling a clan, you must battle at least two other clans before challenging them again.
- There will be NO POSTPONEMENTS. Any inconveniences will be the clan's/member's fault, unless it's uncontrollable. (Ex. Server Lag, Hackers) In this case, the battle can be moved at later time, but must be finished within ONE DAY.
- Any clan must be able to clan battle AT MOST twice on one day.
- Once two clans have battled, they will both send me the results of the battle. (Ex. Rebels vs Trivium - 3:2 Rebels) These results will be shown on the news for EVERYONE to see, but will be taken down the following week.
- If there are no referees online and present for the battle, then the battle can either be postponed or, if both clans agree, the battle can continue without refs. If there is a ref online, this cannot be used as a reason to postpone a battle.
- Clans will not be accepted to the leaderboards with under 8 members.
- The decisions of the US Clan Leaderboards Staff are final. If you have any issues with a battle or another clan on the leaderboards, bring it to them.

- Consequences for breaking the rules:

Spoiler

Consequences
If any of the rules are broken, then these will occur.

First Offence: The round will not count and will be called off.

Second Offence: The round will be a disqualification.

Third Offence: The match will be a forfeit.

In the case of serious offenses (Hacking, Playing on alts, etc.,) the match will be an automatic forfeit and more serious punishments may follow.

This is what makes this fair and exciting. No clan will be able to hold a spot due to "inconveniences." I know that sometimes leaders can be missing or important assets to the clan may be in absence, but a clan shouldn't rely on a few people. A clan should be able to show their strength within every single member. This will help show current standings for the US Clan Community and keep clans active.

[Killstreaks]

JustDon USClanLeaderboards Voyage challenges Instinct to a leaderboard battle on Friday 4:00pm EST

Most of us live in Asia so the timezones are hard but I live in EST But most Members live 12 hours ahead of EST Btw so it might have to be a bit late in EST

 

[SertifiedBlocks]

Everything is fully updated again.

- Jawsh

P.S. For the people that are complaining about the ELO system, there are a bunch of positives and negatives for both ways and we feel that the positives for the ELO system outweigh the positives for the old ranking system.

im glad that you feel that way. but when the leaderboards was fun and active, we used the original system. The elo system is why We wont be joining USCLB, and most likely the same with other clans

 

[Leafed]

Dare is on break now btw

 

[Zaquez]

Why only 10 clans on the lb? Is that maximum capacity?

 

[Warriorss]

I think when summer fully hits and a lot of the older clans I think you should change it back to the original system, because Tenacity? There mostly up there because of elo yo

Because you are the only clan to lose without winning... Just be patient guise. The leaderboards will settle down. Just give it time
