I don't think that's a good idea, as it would make the clan too internally competitive if everyone were fighting to outrank everyone else.
while a clan is used for making new ideas, we have alrdy established that it would be too hard to face other character clans. And by making it more challenging would only make the pit community better competitively. This wont cause any verbal fights ( if thats what ur worried about) rather it will make the loser try to become better. While becoming better we learn more undiscovered techs. i don't see that as bad at all.

That's an excellent point...I think ranks should simply be determined by experience, how active you are, and how much you contribute.

EDIT: I was refferring to Sesshomuronay; Kown posted while I was typing.

And Kown, all I'm saying is that ranking shouldn't be influenced too much by how many matches you win, because it's not very practical to film every single match and thus it's not easy to determine who actually wins the most matches.

I'm pretty sure the honor system would work. The pit community seems nice in general. Although some players are better in person and some are better online. Lets say a guy beats everyone online but places 13th in a tournament frequently, but a player who loses online matches ranks in the top 4 consistantly. See the issue here. I know it will come up. However challenging ppl frequently is a good way to keep the clan active.

We do have an alliance with a Link Clan. We shouldn't have any tournaments yet. We should have "Training sessions" to get the less experienced people better.

...I give training sessions. And oddly enough I think only one or two of you lot are Undrlings of mine. A few are ready to "graduate". At which point I'll take a quick break from teaching and then offer time slots for new people. ^_^

I only give lessons Friday Afternoon and Saturday. As a disclaimer though things may come up that could cause me to break my obligations. I suppose making that known will help in the matter.

And kown I'll do my best to get to ya. You come first this weekend if I'm able to do anything at all. >_<

In your Shadow
1. FzroX or SHFFL
2. not Green or Red
3. Doesn't really matter (you can still figure it out though)
4. You don't have to play Pit all the time, like in IDK Wi-Fi battles for real
5. 2234-6891-3832

So I play Pit and Fox equally, so dont be surprised if you see me play fox. Also I like to think I play a good pit but I may be wrong :(. If you want to play or practice just let me know PM or aim. Also my Wi-Fi has like no lag, and have played ppl in europe with very little problems so location doesn't matter really.

I think it should be a rule that anyone of the rank General (maybe Major) or above should give training sessions.

I wasn't really thinking about it that specifically; I just felt that the high-rankers were the most qualified to be trainers.

So, I'll move people to the 3 "General" slots if they want to give training sessions. This is an example of how you get promoted. Tell me if you want on. If I get more than 3, I'll look at your vids on YouTube and see what is needed in training.

Clan Ideas (people were talking about what we should do)

-Woot Im getting a clan vid up from the turrny so people can finally see me play. Not my best fight the guy I was against is like 3rd in state.

-Undr I would love to take some classes, but I work every fday so if its cool with you sday training?

-Also this is just an idea I had an idea and pm'ed it to gimpy some time ago, but he didn't send anything back. Any way I want to through this out there but would require some work but I think if would be worth it.

It works much like the game Planet side if you ever played it if not heres how it goes.

We take a pix of the subspace map photo shop it so every clan has a different "home base" and put some lines "paths" between the markers (you can only attack a "territory" that is on a path which connects to one that you control, then try to take "territories" from other clans.

Every clan has some where that would suit there guy (such as we would have skyworld but say mario who has many would pick 1) when attacking a place controlled by another team deffending team picks the stage, but if attacking team wins they get the "territory". To get more stages you take a teams "home base" and get the stage that goes with it, but you aren't eliminated until you have no places left.

This way having allies and enemies would make more of a difference. Allies could work together to surround enemy clans.

Also there would be some neutral places that would need to be taken by clans that have paths that lead to it.

-Rules:
~The photo would be updated every week or so and every clan would have a copy of it.
~Clans would but half the members (this may require a cap on clan size) of offense and half on defense only offense can attack and only defense can defend (duh). As many offense players can attack 1 place as wanted but same with defense. Ex. 3 offensive pits attack a place controlled by a toon link clan with 1 person defending that spot each pit would take them on 1 at a time or do a teams battle. (This part might need to be changed)
~Honor code would need to be in place because teams would need to be talking ideas in there respective threads so no looking at others first page where plans and what not would be put by clan leaders.
~There might be more problems so let me know if you see any and we can fix it.
~Rewards: Bragging rights, if the mods would do somthing for the winners clan that would be cool too but I don't know about that.

-What do you guys think? I know that this could be hard, but I think this could be a better way to have clan things instead of just playing each other and practice with allied clans. If you guys think this is good enough to work I'll ask the other clan leaders to PM me so I can send them this and they can talk it over with there clans and get back to me.

I think that this is one of the best clan ideas that I've ever heard. If this happens I just might join a clan so I can participate.

I think the awesomeness of this idea overrides the difficulty of carrying it out. I say we go for it.

I'm pretty sure we ARE just called Palutena's Army. We only have that thread title because it's a new Palutena's Army.

I don't know how to make banners, but if anyone in the clan does I think they should makes some Palutena's army banners for us to use.

After the split, the two clans crashed. For the idea, anyone that wants to vote can PM me. But everyone that I have seen likes the idea.
