I just read renos news post about the HLCCL. Is there anyone here that would be interested in starting a clan? I think it would be great fun. Espescially since everone would be mappers =). You dont have to be a godlike aimer or something, we can do it just for fun at first, and if we dont suck as much as we expect, we could get more serious maybe. So how about it? [addsig]

I'd be up for it probably, always meant to get back into some competitive gaming

I used to be in the old HLCCL for HL1, played in a clan called "Colonial Marines". Also played for a clan called "The Redeemers" for UT a good while back. Since those days I've only really played non-team stuff online.

Well I'm currently in an Australian clan for DOD, but I guess I could do this too. It sounds like a more organised attempt at team snarkpit, the thing we tried a while back. Hopefully this one will have more success.

This is great. i dont know how many players there should be in the clan, but the more the merrier. there should at least be 8 or something. We should get some place to hang. an irc channel or anything. maybe a forum if that is possible. Or perhaps this thread is enough =).

I havent got any experiences to brag with. The only thing i can say that i placed third in an unreal2k4 tournament competition once. Without practice =). Other than that i have just played alot of everything since i got my NES at 4 years age.

Any more interested? and what would be the clan name?

EDIT: maybe we could start a dedicated server somewhere? And meet there sometime.
btw, reno, then you should have some experience in that league. could you explain shortly how it works? [addsig]

I'm all for this being an offshoot of clan snarkpit (I still use the tag when gaming), unless anybody has any objections. It could be cool if anybody who even thinks they may want to play sometimes registered for the clan as well, as that way we can have less need for commitment as there will probably be at least the required 4 for a match (low player count for games ).

Right, as for rules, the league is split into 6 divisions of 8 clans (provided there are enough clans to fill the league). Games are played 4v4 (I'd prefer it to be higher personally, but it is how it is), with a game on each of the team's home maps. Winning both your own map and the opponent's map means your team wins 3 points, winning on one map and losing the other means a draw so each team gets 1 point. Obviously losing both maps bags you 0. Once each team has played every other team in their division, then the top two teams are promoted to the next division up, and the bottom two are demoted. Home maps must be chosen from the allowed maps list, though teams can submit maps to be reviewed in order to be added.

Only 4? damn, thats low. Well, we are 4 now, arent we? But i guess we need a few more.
Yeah snarkpit sounds good to me. I dont think anyone would get upset. Unless we suck, and bring shame to all the snarks =).

Thx for the explanation Reno.

we need a few more atleast i think before we report our clan.

Do you guys want to play tonight for fun somewhere? or some other night?

EDIT: Reno, are you going to give them your map dm_echo. or what was it called? or did the maps have to be team based? [addsig]

I would love to be in a clan, however i'm only a slightly above average player so I'm not sure I would fit in.

Hehe I wouldn't worry Andrei, I'm very hit and miss, with occasional good games and occasional bad ones. I think we should play for fun rather than glory

I can play tonight if you fancy it, we could just invade the HL2CCL server to see if everybody pings ok on it. Here is the IP if anybody wants it...

195.224.41.43:27016

That is their permanent server, but on match nights they have 6 servers to cover all the games.

I would submit Echo if it was done, but I'm actually making it for AG2 right now.

Adrenaline Gamer 2, its a mod that I map for. There is a link in my sig if you care to know more I'll pop in for a bit, why not.

Oh, and anybody who wants to join, will need to give their steam ID. You can get this by typing "status" in the console while playing.

EDIT: Wireplay also run two other public HL2 servers, one TDM and one DM. Here are the IP's if people want them...

I didn't know you were in there, what name were you using?

Anyway, like Sloth I got a decent ping, about 40-50 most of the time probably.

I'm in a HL1 clan and we're pretty active, but what I've played of HL2 I've been pretty dominant in. I just think it's a little too slow for me. But if you're looking for a go-to guy for matches and such I'd be interested. East Coast USA, though.

I think for the league you really have to be UK or somewhere in the Europe with a nice connection, as otherwise you just won't ping well on the servers the league matches are played on
