CLAN: QÙÁP

LEADER = Leader, CO= Co-Leader, ELDER= Elder, The COUNCIL= Leader and Cos, (I)RL=(in) real life, das boot= kicked

Prerequisites: Lvl 40+, Lvl 4+ archers.  If you don't like to read stop here.

Mission Statement: We are an intelligent clan committed to winning Clan Wars, raiding for resources and improving our bases. These three goals are mutually inclusive. Active participation is mandatory. “Active participation” includes constant base and troop upgrades, donation of troops and consistent war attempts. If you want to take a break request to be moved to QÙÁP OUT, our break/feeder clan. Otherwise, inactivity will result in das boot. Remember, no star is left unturned!

Core Rules:
1. This is your clan and you are what make it strong. We rely on you to adhere to this Charter.
2. This is a game, have fun.
3. Don’t be a dick. Don't take advice as an insult.
4. Nothing is personal, see rules 2-3.  
5. The goal is to get better and win Clan Wars.  
6. Kids are allowed, but be warned this is an ADULT clan.
7. Intelligent, insightful and helpful discussion is encouraged. So are joking, popular culture references, music references, movie references, mama jokes and theories on the place of humans in the universe.
8. No political, racist, bigoted, sexist, homophobic or misogynistic talk is allowed. Sexual talk could be permitted if used effectively. 
9. The language filter is optional. Remember that curse words are used most effectively when sparing and opportune.
10. Do not ask for promotion. Titles are given based on commitment and merit. If you are obsessed with having a title then this is not the place for you.
11. Donate.  Though donation ratios will not be strictly monitored we are an active clan.  We expect ready and willing donations and consistent requests for donations to show activity.
12. Clan war attacks are mandatory. New members must attack with both attempts in 3 consecutive wars to maintain membership.
13.  There is a password that must be typed in your request to join this clan. Typing the password acknowledges that you have read and agree with this charter. The password is red balloon.
14. You should know the difference between a war base/castle and regular base/castle.
15. We use KakaoTalk to communicate outside of clan chat. It is a free app and is highly encouraged. Promotions will not be given without the use of this app.
16. Please read rules #10 through #13 again.
17. Read the rest of the stuff below.

War Rules:
1. Schedule: We start wars around 8:00 pm Central US time (Chicago time) on Wednesdays and Sundays. Battle days are Thursday-Friday and Monday-Tuesday. Use your mobile device “world clock” or go to timeanddate.com to determine your local time.
2. Listen to the LEADERS and COs instructions. Failure to consistently follow this rule will result in das boot.
3. Your clan war base must protect your TH. Your clan war base must be constructed to win. Failure to follow this rule will result in das boot.
4. You should always have elixir for wars. Wars are the only place to waste elixir, for the good of the CLAN.
5. All players will attack an enemy within +/- 3 levels of them on the first attack. This number may be adjusted as the clan increases in size. An appropriate troop composition and strategy should be implemented. This should occur within the first 8 hours of the war. Failure to consistently follow this rule will result in das boot.
6. After 8 hours of war all attacks are welcome. Attack within reason and for the good of the war. ALL war attacks should be for stars.
7. In the judgment of the LEADER and COs, if consistent attacks are made for loot instead of stars, you will receive das boot. Exceptions will be made if attacks are properly proposed and explained.
8. Do not complain about other member’s attacks. Do not claim that other members stole your targets. Attack within 3 levels in the first 8 hours and this will not be a problem.
9. If for some reason you will be unavailable for war you should drop trophies (if applicable) or move to Clan QÙÁP OUT.
10. War is a good source of loot and the more loot the stronger the CLAN.

Donations:
1. NOT AT WAR: Everyone is allowed to donate. Donate to your fellow members only what is asked for. Read the troop request. In general, do not request troops you are not training yourself. In general, if you request specific levels of troops you must possess the ability to also make those troops. Asking for troops without a level requirement is encouraged. When in doubt, archers. Everyone should have full castles at all times, request as often as needed and be just as willing to fill your clan mate's castles. Do not let donation ratios become problematic- you will be warned and receive das boot accordingly.  Using donations along with your own troops to raid is perfectly acceptable.

2. DURING WAR:
a. War Castle: If a player has both troop type and level specified in their request and you can meet both requirements, donate as requested. Otherwise, DO NOT donate unless you have Lvl 3+ dragons and Lvl 5+ archers/wizards. THESE ARE THE MINIMUM TROOPS. Feel free to request other troops you find effective. IMPORTANT: Always specify troop lvl in war castle requests, we want you to have the best troops.

We realize war castle troop donations cannot be easily monitored nor result in any benefit to the donator. We realize elixir supplies will fluctuate. Everyone is encouraged to donate and all donations are much appreciated if they follow the above rules.

b. Regular Castle: Always request specific types, levels and numbers of troops. In general, you are allowed to request any troops regardless of your own troop capabilities. Request what is best for your attack.  This only applies during wartime and if those troops are planned for an attack.

Organization: There will be one LEADER. There will be many COs and ELDERS. The Council will consist of the LEADER and COs.

Responsibilities:
LEADER: The LEADER should be active. The LEADER shall have the sole power to promote and demote COs. The LEADER shall have the power to accept any new member. The LEADER shall strive to maintain competitiveness of, and harmony within, the CLAN. The LEADER will sit on the Council.

COs: THE COs should be active. The COs shall have the power to stand in as LEADER and perform all duties in his/her absence. The COs will be responsible for monitoring war attendance and performance. The COs have the power to accept new members. In general the LEADER and COs should agree on whom to kick and promotion/demotion of ELDERS. A CO should have the LEADER’s approval before kicking players, except in extreme circumstances. These rules are not immutable; the LEADER can give a CO full Leader authority and also take back that authority if abused. The COs will sit on the Council.

ELDERS: This title is an honor. ELDERS shall not kick any player without LEADER/CO approval. ELDERS shall be active in recruiting players per the standards of this charter (i.e. that means Lvl 4 archers minimum). Accepting too many bad players will result in demotion. ELDERS will lead by example and must maintain high donation rates and active and effective war participation.

THE COUNCIL: Any issue put to vote of the COUNCIL shall pass with majority vote and may be vetoed by the LEADER. The removal of the LEADER can be decided by COUNCIL vote. Any CO may call a vote to remove the LEADER and ELDERS may petition for the removal of the LEADER. The removal of the LEADER requires 2/3 majority agreement. The LEADER shall then promote an existing CO to the position of LEADER. 


This is our Charter.  These guidelines are meant to enhance gameplay and reduce drama for everyone, that is all.  These guidelines will not be abused or distorted.  We are a Clan of fair minded individuals committed to having fun and getting better while still maintaining perspective on RL.  We play this game regularly and expect that if you are reading this sentence then you are also of the same mind.


Thank you for considering us. If you missed the password please read again. Remember to type the accent marks for the letters “U” and “A” when searching for the clan. Hold down the letter on your keyboard to bring up the options.
