danger NexuizClans.com - back in action!
Lets face it, the Nexuiz Clan scene hasn't been doing so hot recently and for months people have been complaining. I've been telling people not to worry, alpha and I are in the works with the statistics system... but with so many other projects in the air the pace of that one has slowed down and building a custom ladder script that works automatically with the server statistics within a timeframe of say... a month, was just not feasible.

Doku and I have made some attempts in the past by providing [url=http://m.nexuizclans.com]clans[/url] with [url=http://optimalclan.com]awesome[/url] [url=http://ev.nexuizclans.com]websites[/url] (huge thanks to doku for these, it's mostly his work)... but nothing really stuck.

So... I took it upon myself to do a bit of research and I think I've have found the sort of script I was looking for, basically a league management script. This one allows of expansion. It's your basic ladder, where you sign up as a single user, create or join a clan and schedule matches with other clans. Afterwards, you report the matches, upload your screenshot and demo.

This one allows for users to join multiple clans (if I(we) allow it), automagical scheduling of clan matches, multiple tourneys with separate templates (we can host contests for other web communities, much like tourney.cc does, if they so wish), we can create custom awards... and better yet, this has a module system. So we can easily extend this platform.

This is really good because instead of going from the ground up with statistics and then a ladder, we can now meet this application half way and (hopefully) automatically submit demos, screenshots and reports from servers in the future.


[size=medium]So... where do we go from here?[/size]

We need to define match rules, create (a) server config(s), define a map list (remember we can run multiple tourneys, so we don't have to exclude new maps, we can have a custom ladder with a rotating maplist for new maps.


Clan leaders, please sign up and get your members to sign up as well.

Dokujisan and I will run the first set of servers for this community but I hope we can work with some of the EU and AU guys in the future. I expect the first matches to kick off in ~a month, so that should give us time to define all these things out.


Please join #nexuiz.clans on irc.quakenet.org to help bring this community to life with your ideas and contributions. I'll need a group of strong minded, helpful individuals to help moderate this website in the future.


Happy fragging :)

Agreed on those maps, also I think map pool should remain small so that people will concentrate on them and be good on all the maps available to play, and not end up having to play some obscure map they've never played before. IMO 5 maps would be good enough.
