What should be done with the Clan Scoring System:
A) Leave it as it is;
B) Make this year's Net Points the default setting; or
C) Replace it with a system where all games played effect the Clan's rating (similar to the individual rating system).

Are you the same person who told me that clans/clubs sucked?
Perhaps "No One" could explain this to us or at least me? I certainly don't speak for anyone else.

A person's current subscription status should have no bearing on the validity of their opinion, given that they could pony up the cash at any time, especially likely if ideas they contribute to become reality. Cash that you are currently trying to troll away.
Try to stay on topic, and quit trolling a thread which is trying to be proactive.
Instead of getting others to justify the reasons why they are investing thinking time into the site to you (who are you, BTW, that you require explanations/justifications before quitting your trolling? ), why not let them get on with brainstorming for ideas?

EDIT: "No One" isn't even subscriber silly, he can't VOTE!!
IF the Vote means bugger all why bother?
"No One" isn't even in a clan.
I don't know if you are or not, but doesn't seem like Metallica the Number 1 Clan for 2008 has played you that I can see. 😛 I just noticed you are in two clans. Do you play many games? Say in a month how many clan games would you actually play?[/b]
I'm sure no1 might even subscribe again and resurrect the mighty Contumelious Clan for some scathing and sarcastic goading and MEGACHALLENGES if this useless scoring system was changed to something meaningful.
I know there are many big words in this post, so read it twice, maybe even 3 times before responding with your usual vitriol.

EDIT: Sorry, if I don't follow closely enough what you and Phlabby & "No One" say. I find that it is better for me to do so, because it usually involves some kind of a dig, insult, or innuendo hurled my way. Perhaps, if and when that changes, I will indeed pay close attention to what you all say.

If anything, I've tried to talk with you about this subject and you've insulted my chess move rate and ignored my request you remind me how clans games are scored exactly.

What I did was gave you an example of moves made and roughly the amount of games it would indeed add up to. You told me that I was talking that number because it was the amount of moves "YOU" made.
What I was doing is using this as an example of someone who would only play very few games per year. So of course if the amount of games "Played" is not in the "Point System", it would certainly benefit them.
It was no insult to the amount of moves that "You personally have made", although you do fit into the category of "Slow players", I was talking about.
Sorry, if you took it as an insult, it was not intended as such. You can move fewer times, and play less games if want. But, when you ask, not to let amount of games played count, keep in mind, people are going to say it is because it suits your type of play better!

See 'dig'? This is site ideas, we're talking about a valid change to the clan scoring. Perhaps you should go back and actually READ the things said rather than assume you're being attacked.
If you think the score should reward fast moving, that is fine. I think the scoring system should reward wins on both sides.
Someone pointed out that a clan might get 20 points for winning 10 out of 20 games vs. a clan that won 9 got a draw. I think the points should reflect those 9 lost games, even if they don't give the points to the loser.
If you don't, just say so. Quit spending so much time defending against things that were not said in this discussion based on other threads or posts.
