I like the idea of clans only playing clans on the same page that they ended the prior year. This should give rise to more competitive matches and avoid obvious collusion.
Regarding sandbagging, it ultimately falls to each clan leader to spot this and avoid competing clan players accordingly. Certainly clan leaders on page 1 are more than capable of this.
A system based on elo would put sandbaggers to rest once and for all.

2. To prevent collusion, there should be a maximum number of challenges between any two clans involving the same players, and the max. should be low (2 or 3) -- with the proviso that if two or more clans play more than the max., they may do so but the games played above the max would not affect clan standings.
you actually think collusion is a problem?

good points you made why not do the easy one first, just stop taking free points from arrow breaking bad and anti metallica
lets see if you are actually serious about reform, set an example then others might listen, but until then we only see a cheat

A clan leaders job is to accept/decline incoming challenges with a view to a reasonable fair challenge. The same goes for outgoing challenges ie a fair challenge.

Human nature tries to get an edge in a challenge thus the better clan leaders tend to have slightly over 50% win ratio.

Clans like Metallica go that step further and manipulate every possible advantage that the rules allow thus tend to have 75% plus win ratio.

To have a fair system you have to devise a way to nullify the loopholes that these scumbags exploit.

Instead of annual clan titles, make them seasons.

Every clan plays every clan, once.

New season.

How do you match up clans with say 2 players against clans with 20 players?

Also some clans have players with high ratings and some have clans full of low rated players.

Not sure if that would work.

Other than the obvious of cleaning up the collusion and the sandbagging the most important thing is to stop negative points and reward clans who lose in close ties. An 80 point swing in points for a 20 man clan challenge that finishes say 20 to 19 is ridiculous.

This is the main aspect (other than booting carrobies sorry ass) that needs to be addressed.

we also have a win ratio of 100% against metallica, thus carrying your logic forward, that must also be evidence of collusion
