Ok... This did not work too well the first time. Everything kinda fell apart when I went on vacation so I am going to try this clan thing again. This time I will only accept level 18+. Don't even post if you are below. I need players who are on every other day at least. simple. The old clan collapsed because people sucked and were inactive I am going to change that.
Ok, to begin. I am so tired of joining new clans only to have clans fights or have all the members leave for some other reason. I have been in over ten different clans and they all have split up for one reasom or another. I do not want this to happen, so if you tend to instigate trouble or do not get along well with other players, do not consider joining. I will not tolerate cheaters, if you cheat, you will be baned from my clan without warning. It is ok to talk s##t to other players, but please do not verbally attack the other players, especially if they are not fighting back. With the rules out of the way, here is what you need to join this clan.
After playing countless games, I have realized that the smarter player often beats the more skillful one. This happens almost 95% of the time. I am looking for players who do not make rash and foolish decisions. We need to think about what were doing before we do it. For example, in a teamslayer game would I charge a rocket carrier head on with smgs? no. I am sure all of you asnwer the same way, but most people do not act like this in the game. They know what is wrong and continually do it. I need players who can avoid making these stupid choices.
Teamwork is the quintessential prerequisite required to win in clan matches, esspecially in major clanmatch. This means we need a plan and we need to stick to it. Communication, the most importaint part of teamwork, is often ignored by the most skilled players. Speaking to your teamates and telling them where snipers, rocket carriers, flag carriers and bomb carriers often determins the game. If you see a guy take our flag or start arming a bomb in our base, immeditatly tell the team. Do not hesitate.
I am idealing looking for players 18+. Players at these levels can normally recognize bad situations, play smart, and allocate teamwork to their gameplay. If you are lower than a level 18, but you think you can player like one, you are more than willing to tryout. If it is apparent that you suck, I will end the game. All players will go through a tryout, no matter what level you are. Many level 20's have standbyed to get their ranks up and truly suck. Tryouts will consist of a head to head game on lockout with defualt head to head settings and a few custom games. The head to head is required because it forces you to play smart. You do not have to beat me in a tryout to be accepted. You may lose the head to head terribly and if you don't play it regularly I expect you to. This is alright. It is simply to make sure you don't make the same mistakes over and over and adapt to different situations accordingly.
Players must play regularly. I do not want people who come on for 5 hours one day and then don't show up online for another week. Try to be online once every couple of days. If you get grounded or you decide to take a break from Halo for a bit, it's fine, we all get bored sometimes. All you need to do is send me a message saying so.
This may sound a little demanding, but I really am looking for a solid clan that can have fun while winning at the same time. If no rules are enforced, then the clan will seperate like all the others I have been in before. I will promote players to overlord and staff accordingly. If you play regularly and are a decent player, then overlord might be your future clan position.
There will be maditory clan practice every week which every member must attend. If you are not going to show up, you must tell me in advance and have a good excuse. If you miss practice consistantly you will be booted.
Please send me a friend request at "sludgely" on xbox live if you want to join or ask questions. Make sure you leave a brief message with your friend request so I do not discard the request thinking you are some guy who wants to be a the friend of a high level.
