Heroic International – A Manifesto

I had the following idea: to hold a tournament for the Guild Cup. The essence of the tournament:
1) Only Guild members can participate.

Share your thoughts.

I don't like the essence of the tournament, although I might be missing something, so please explain it to me so I can understand. It seems that, on the one hand, you are trying to force everyone to join the Guild (well, if you want to participate in the Guild tournament, then join this organization). And on the other hand, you are forcibly excluding ordinary forum members from the Guild, which contradicts your Guild's international ideas about friendship, equality, and so on, depriving them of the opportunity to participate in your tournament. For my part, I would like to remind you in advance that tournaments with participation restrictions will not be taken into account in my rating. You can, of course, consider them in your own. However, we discussed this with AmberSoler in that large thread where we initially started discussing our rating systems. I just forgot to mention this in the thread about my rating. I will add this point there now, because in this matter, AmberSoler and I came to the same conclusion - that tournaments with participation restrictions, regardless of their quota, should not be taken into account in the rating!
PS. I thought that instead of solving Clan issues, the Guild leadership would engage in something like organizing closed tournaments. And what's next? Will all forum participants join the Guild? It will become an organization within an organization. First, we all gathered on the forum as Heroes fans. Then we divided into Clans to make it more interesting. Then we decided to gather everyone in a Guild again to live in harmony. What's next? In addition to the official forum tournaments, there will also be tournaments for the Guild Cup. And then they immediately suggest dividing into teams randomly by drawing lots (like Clans) and organizing a tournament. This can have the opposite effect. Instead of strengthening friendship between Clans, you will achieve that even members of the same Clan may quarrel in tournaments where they end up on different teams. In short, I'm already confused myself :) Get me out of this loop :)
