Ok... where to start.

Just had a little chat with Guyver on msn and we are thinking of canning clans on MyDS.com.au

Drastic yes, but i would like to see one of you, from either clan tell me that you have in the past 3 months had a tourny where a large group of people turned up. Simply, we don't have the member capacity to host 2 clans, going their own ways.

If we join them together and just have a neutral thing where anyone can enter and turn up, we get more people for the same thing, more comps, more everything!

Metroid is scrapped this w/e for the MyDS clan, we will still be hosting Mario kart and i encourage everyone! to turn up, it's in the other thread what time, and if you still don't know, PM me.

Please feel free to leave your input on this discussiona dn ask any questions you would like to have answered. This is still in discussion phase as i haven't even talked to MrDS about this.

Heh, I don't like clans for that very reason. You set something up, use a lot of effort and no-one comes. If you have signed up, you should come! Otherwise, contact some-one.

some of us have exams and wont be playing much until December. the clans on this site are pointless. get rid of them and just have torneys.. "FREE-FOR-ALL"

As much as i enjoy clans, your right. we dont have enough members to host stuff and if we had a tourney for everyone lots of people might turn up...

That'd be great to fuse the clans togather. Were are short on members and the past tourneys have sucked, no offense

More people + more games + less conflict + less complications + more fun.

It's settled.

Clans on MyDS.com.au are hereby disbanded, Tournaments and competitions will still happen globally on the site. Stay tuned for further updates

We may though keep MyDS clan as the OFFICIAL clan to make it more official and people more committed, but we will see how it goes.

Im happy with this decision,
Ive been gone for a while and now im back,
I didnt actually go anywhere but :P
Truth is i got a Xbox and yeh
But any way,
I'll do the fue thingy,
Its a really good idea but we must never forget of the old ways...
With clans, so we remember what people were like,
by this i mean talking in other clans things and the competition,
MyDS will be much better off without it.

mm i think thats pretty lame. havnig clans added a bit of rivalry and pride to belongign to a clan.

Can you have tournments where BOTH CLANS are invited? and you earn points for your clan????


Now theres a real idea that could work.

Clans are overrated.
Canning them is a wise and bold move.

Well that's what we are aiming for, clans are not bad, they are simply not adaptable to the lifestyle of this site, we don't have the capacity to run 2 clans, that's halving the people, not to menchan the ones that don't turn up

How are they overrated? if the players were more active, clans are heaps worthwhile, especially with healthy competition, it would make players want to play more

I'm most worried because in the MYDS clan most were very motivated! But in the KING clan I have seen 1 or 2 people show up to tournaments if we get rid of clans we will just end up with a whole new bunch of no shows...

We are simply taking a step backward. This is all like a maze, we hit a dead end, now we are going backward and trying a new approach.

No because KinG couldn't even get more then a few members to do anything, they are dead really, leaving 1 clan. There is no point for a clan then, and if so it's just more a group.

Well, not permanent of course.

Have a group of people closer and all governed by the one place, makes it more official, less complications, means some noobs can turn up too maybe jumping our numbers. If i see an increase in productivity of how it is all going i will split it into 2 clans again later on possibly.

Again, how it was with 2 clans and one massively dominant just wasn't working. Can't lose by doing something new

Remember, Mario Kart, EVERYONE - Sunday - 7:30pm AEDT

I will give you more times soon

you could if all goes well with this, (like were ALL MYDS clan)
In the future it could be 2 different coloured MYDS clans, like MYDS Black and MYDS Purple, that people dont pick but are assigned, like every person that joins is automattically in one, and everything is free for all but every now and then is a clan battle, but clan battles dont have to exist at all. so yeh, if u understand me

im back yay my interet screwed up but its fixed now heres my input

i like the idea i was thinking the same thing but i just don't like the name it should be called something like the WiFi clan because it makes it look like your getting rid of one clan not meshing them together. Etwee is also right i mean there was pride in being in a clan. but one thing that anoys me would have to be that my badge never got put up. i asked like 5 months ago it doesnt take 5 months to ask for the badges to be put up. i know it might take awhile but it doesnt take anywhere near 5 months
