How about a CCC Superbowl once per year with the SINGLE biggest CCC winner from C3 vs the SINGLE biggest CCC winner of C4?
Total points from annual CCC winning clans being the deciding factor for elegiblity - if two previous C3 or C4 champions were tied in points, clearly there would have to be a play-off to see which C3/C4 winners goes to the CCC Superbowl.
Tournament format could be three C3 events and three C4 events with the winner being crowned overall CCC Champion?
With the current CCC schedules, it could be done in February 2006, after the January 2006 C3 CCC and C4 CCC.
and to keep it simple, regardless of the scenarios, the 3 events could be a 1v1, 3v3, and an FFA from each civ game.

wOwzaaa! Sorry you feel that way - which 2005 CCC championship did you win? Was part of the MAD squad when we won it... think it was CCCXXI Reason why I don't like it is cause many clans have split up, or aint playing. So it would only be a few clans that could actually play, 2 or 3. Also some C3C players might not have Civ4 either or the other way around.

Since participation is down in c3c.....
I would love to see "old-timer" events. Meaning maybe two c3c events incorporated into the civ4 CCC. I mean I'd love to see c3c live forever but chances are the number of clans and players there will eventually decline. To preserve it we coudl have two "classic events" per CCC. Says a 4v4 ancient teamer and a Future?

That idea would be nice only if its not discriminating players, like : players/clans who would only have civ4 should not be prevented from competing cos they don't have civ3. So maybe a way to put that idea into practice would consist in allowing/forcing every clan to decide after saturday events 1 event they don't want to see counted in their results. So if there are like 9 events, only 8 would be taken into account.
This would also help solving the issue of "small" clans or no-showing. We put that rule in last (and first) cup of the francophonia on civfr.

or another option would be to have c3c games in c3c events and civ4 games in civ4 events
NoD was the most successful c3c clan by a country mile - also one of the longest standing, if not the longest standing which is obviously a contributor
most if not all of the membership had ceased playing c3c 3-4 months prior to civ4

I'm not talking about "individuals," I'm talking about clans.
Clans who have already won at least ONE CCC would be the only clans elegibile.
Just like other sports, individuals who are no longer a member of that specific clan wouldn't be eligible - just like a former player of a football team that changed teams wouldn't be elegibile in the super bowl - unless of course they changed to a CCC winning clan.
The "superbowl" would be about winning teams/clans.
if it were an individual tournament, it would be modeled more like the pro-bowl.
Before I posted this, I took a look at 2005's CCC winners - I didn't see NoD - did I miss something? (if so, I CERTAINLY appologize)

Be sure I'll put a "Skid's return to the game" thread up when this happens, with lots of explanation and underlined words

I like that -
just not sure if there ll be many more civ4 cccs - interest into civ4 is declining more and more - I think Fried wrote once in 1 of these early "civ4 suckz" threads that time ll show if civ4 is succesful or not - and he wrote something bout 200 players in lobby or so at about 1-2 month after release - atm there are more like 10-20 players
I see hardly new good ladder players joining - so maybe civ4 ll be as dead as civ3 is atm in about 3 month

The future of the CCC seems very secure to me. Our first CIV4 CCC drew 10 clans and in the last four days we have had record levels of play. 2068 matches reported in last 4 days. Yesterday (Tuesday) was our highest ever with 588 matches reported. As far as #'s in lobby, you have to remember you can't really compare CIV3 and CIV4 lobbies very well - since people could be playing and in the CIV3 lobby at the same time, while this isn't done (very often) in CIV4. When I look at the size of the lobby and the number of games in progress (which we can see now in CIV4, but not in CIV3), I am impressed. Sure we need another patch - and I am told it is being worked on. Every version of CIV, including Conquests, needed at least 3 patches before it stabilized. There are so many map choices that complaints about "bad maps" - an excuse I've heard for 3 years - should be a rarity - although human nature being what it is I'm sure I'd hear it even when people play mirror. It's inevitable with change that some will be more pleased and some more disappointed. While the game will lose some veterans - we are adding a *LOT* of new folks too. I suspect the same things will be said when CIV V comes out also in 2007 Best, SPM

Again MMV is going on a trip trying to be smartass. First C3 CCC was August 2003. NoD won it 6 times. Before the retirement of NoD from C3, no clan had won it more than twice. It might be that even now there is no clan who won it more than 3 times. Glory comes and goes with the interest of a clan's members in a certain game. In 2005 C3 was 2 years old. The fact that you, who might have joined the ladder in 2005 (?), didn't see NoD on the winner's list for that year it doesn't mean that statistics don't remember our 6 wins as the most ever in C3; plus the 4 runner-ups we had. So yes you ARE missing, and not only something, but a lot. Now go back to trying to be the smarty-pants again, and let me know how many winning rosters YOU have been on. Have a freakin good day.

Have a freakin good day. umm lu u r wrong on acouple things there. 1st clan AOE won 3 months in arow from feb05 to april 05 and came 2nd in jan 05 to ice and 2nd in june 05 to ice 2nd B2C/ICE/AOE each have 3 ccc titles in c3c each tied for 2nd to NOD which have 6. granted back when NOD when at full staff u guys made finals pretty much each ccc. . you can say clan NOD is the yankees of c3c ccc events winning the most titles.

Nothing like dredging up an old thread and fighting over it.
