So let's say clan A has a 100% win record, and clan B has a 96% win record. Why would clan A even bother showing up?
If they DO show, there's a chance they lose the prize. If they don't, they're guaranteed the win. -

I think you misunderstood. The two clans with the highest win percentages over the month for GM will go head to head against each other. The winner of that game/games will have their clan awarded with the prize. Not showing up is the same as a forfeit, and the prize would go to the opposing team..
Am I right? -
There's something going on...
- Since the Axe got removed from cps, Saidin said they might do more GM related events.
- There's a mysterious ribbon with a ghost mask in their ribbon database.
- The ribbon looks like a new version of Iron Man but with the ghost mask.
- March is soon and it usually announce 1 big event (2010: March of the Ghost, 2011: Iron Man ribbon).
- Rival Factions bug is fixed...
Too much speculation... ;headexplode;
I'm psychic, O.O

This is a pretty good point. We'll look at this and make some changes.
Basically it comes down to this: We do want to see people play some sort of a final match. We do NOT want to see people moan and whine about schedules and who shows and who doesn't show.
The scenario you suggest is likely to happen though so we will make a small change to how the end will happen. -

Does farming counts cause a lot of clans will just farm and it is not fair for the clans that actually do play and win -

- Z8Games will contact the top 2 clans via the Clan Leader and all clan lieutenants via the Z8Games support page between April 2nd and April 4th.
- Winning Clans will be asked to provide a potential play time on April 6th or April 7th. Z8Games will then determine the play time based on the provided schedules and deliver the schedule to the Clans on April 5th.
- The top 2 clans will then meet on the Clan Server to play a one-game playoff to determine the Ghost Mode Tournament winner.
- Both clans must communicate with Z8Games, if neither do in the allotted time, the original records will stand. If only one clan communicates with Z8Games (or shows up for the match) then they will be declared the winners.
This should help clean that up.
Ends up looking like this: Top 2 are chosen and send letters. They have 2 days to send responses back. Then they must show up at a predetermined time that Z8Games sets. If no one communicates in this time period then we will use the original standings. If only 1 clan communicates in that time period then they will be declared the winner.
That last sentence also applies to showing up for the match. If neither show up then the original standings hold true. If only one clan shows then they will be declared the winner. -

Do you read this line carefully? And you don't need the quote the whole thing to make the page longer -

Please read all the rules. We reserve the right to look at the records of potential winning clans for hacking and ladder manipulation (farming). We can and will eliminate clans we deem have been farming their records.
Please read all the rules. There are 2 tie-breakers. Match Points and Clan Points.Let's say clan A play 12 games and 100% win, clan B play 11 games and 100% win, and clan C play 13 games and 100% win, clan D play 13 game and 97% win. Which 2 of them can enter the final?
Additionally, none of those clans have played 30 total matches so none of them would get in. -

If clan A have 7 members, clan B only have 5 members. Should clan A remove 2 members? And if any error happen to member(s) of 1 side, is it fair to continue the final? -
Sorry o confuse you, but my point is if they are 3 tie breakers.[GM]Saidin wrote: »Please read all the rules. There are 2 tie-breakers. Match Points and Clan Points.

While the literal fact of this is true. We will be looking at rosters.Z8Games reserves the right to review the records, rosters and status of all participating clans for malicious behavior including hacking, and ladder manipulation including 'farming wins', and refuse a prize if deemed appropriate.
Not to mention that clan would have to let you in! -

I think you forgot about[/size=15] Farmers? [/size] -
-
i would have some questions:
1. as mentioned before if there are less than 8 people in the room at the end the game doesn't count?
but i think this is kind of problematic cause u can doge a lose then if kind of 4 people leave at the end so u never have any lose (u could say its cause disconnect or whatever)
i hope it won't be like that
2. The top 2 clans?
how will they be chosen
kind of u have:
A : 2000 matches 95% win
B : 50 matches 100% win
C : 1000 matches 97.5% win
D : 500 matches 99% win
which 2 will be chosen?
3. u could just do cw against some low skill enemys would not be farming cause it would be a real match and u would have to play but i would not be fair 4 bad team
so u win 100%
and another clan does really try to be fair and does play against real enemys and has just 95%
so would the enemys in the clan matches be included in judgement?
