Posted by deebo at 10:24 14/2/2003.

Yer agreed m0rph, back in the beta days it was great, and it stayed almost as good until about 1.1.

I honestly think these changes will make it a good ladder again, coupled with the CS ladder changes announced the other day.

If I was a CL I would certainly sign up for CB, if you just regard it as a pcw arranging system/ fun ladder, then you can't go wrong. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

I find it funny that people blame the ladder for being crap. Surely its the clans involved that make or break something like this and the ladder is just the system within which you play... [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

that is true to a certain extent, but if there are obvious holes in the system for lame t**ts to exploit then they will use them to get an advantage. where as good/honest clans would just ignore them and play fair.
so by tightening the rules up it should stop ppl being as lame [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

If Clanbase would of implemented these changes slightly before they realised that everyone thought how s*** their rules and procedures were and how they couldnt organise a p*** up in a brewery. A year earlier and they would of been ok.

Clanbase = downhill. The admins chat out of their arses. The Nations Cup was disgustingly organised. Although I can't help but think bds is a whinging little b***h, the fact that the admins f***ed him and sweden over is understandable. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

You can't accuse a ladder of being crap because the best teams are not in it. The top teams are not in the ladder simply because of the whole 'pro' fever. No matter if these rules were implemented into the ladder 18 months ago u would still not see the top teams competing in them.

The directional focus has definitly shifted towards lans. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

these changes look like improvements, maybe cb.uk can attract a few of the bigger teams back to the ladder. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

teams dropped out of the online league because u could play s*** teams, beat em and keep ur top spot. Now you have beat the 1st placed team to actually claim the #1 spot. but its too late coz every decent UK team has either dropped out or folded [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

A highly doubt if 4K were in the #1 position on CBUK ladder they would want to play the UK clans ranked 2-5 anyway, still would be a waste of their time. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

I think its a good idea, an open league for people to sign up in and requires little admin attention as its nicely automated. All it takes is the top teams to sign up and everyone will follow the leader, i know theres a bit of a gap in the uk team skill level but maybe the top teams will sign up if the lesser skill teams battle it out and get better?

Not sure if it will bring back the good old days anyway but it would be nice to see some kind of goal to try and attain instead of pcw pcw pcw and maybe the odd lan now and again. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

more and more decent clans are joining the ladder again, so regardless of the "lan stars" it should bring unspotted talents to the spotlight again, rather than the same 8 or so teams that are the self proclaimed top clans. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
