Clan Wars: online (Autumn 2008)

Okay, if that's the case, then let's ban mercenaries! Even having just one mercenary will skew the statistics, won't it?

If we ban mercenary use altogether, then the idea of the tournament is only partially justified.

1. The team tournament is held to attract new players.

Therefore, a compromise is proposed between these two extremes: assign mercenaries a non-leading role... and this in no way diminishes them, as they can prove themselves as full members of the team (if a mercenary suddenly has more ambition than the entire Clan, then, sorry, they shouldn't even apply to be hired... to skew the statistics :D)... + the main idea is still to have more teams, so that some Clans that don't have the ability to field 3 players can participate using mercenaries... and "identifying the strongest Clan" is at the end of the list of tournament goals - therefore, in any, even the most well-intentioned community, the rules need to be thoroughly defined, because not everyone demonstrates restraint and mutual respect to the end... ;)
