How many clans play games as a clan not as a team?

e.g. all game moves are being instructed and organized by a player/s that are not part of team in a game

More than you think, and it's a shame. Not much point in players playing if they're not the ones driving the bus.

I know of a few, but I don't know too many. I know within Fallen its pretty rare for someone outside the game to be giving input (usually on a random unfamiliar map for opening strategy, if anything) But i would characterize that for us as being played 99.8% within the teams that are assigned / in the games.

This isn't true. GoranZ takes everyone's turns. That's why he went freemium, because he didn't need the premium in order to play however much he wants. This is actually GoranZ typing right now.

Who does that, danryan? I'm always curious, because I see that accusation thrown around a lot!

Who the heck has enough free time to write instructions for every single turn in all games in a clans war??? I think most of us (with exceptions of course) run a light game schedule when entering into clan wars just so there is enough time to check out turns and discuss with team.

But then again I would never have believed anyone could run a game load of 700+ and actually compete in all the games, so I guess it can certainly be done ;)

Add TSM to the groups that do not do this.

The benga bus is coming, new york and san francisco and in the city disco. Come people sing along with me, no need to be shy about loving aqua.

Come on foxy, don't be denying the truth. I'll outline the accepted wisdom on turn taking in clan wars.

Everyone knows that josko takes all turns for Kort, and all members of Kort are initiated in a ceremony were they have to kiss a photo of bruce, whilst reciting the bovine pledge.

benga takes all turns for OSA and starts sour grapes threads to try and put people off their game.

CoF takes all TOFU games, CoF and josko are twins seperated at birth raised to hate each other in a sick nature vs nurture thought experiment.

At Atlantis iamcaffiene in his teflon kris incarnation takes exactly half the turns, gustaf dictates instructions in all other games and our team of trained sea monkey bots take those turns in conjunction with a dice engine.

dan "the goat whisperer" ryan whilst normally maintaining an honourable stance, can sometimes be tempted into playing below his best if a comely time share goat is on offer.

Please note this is an excerpt from the general site knowledge clan book, not a complete and exhaustive list.
