KOAR Clan Ideas

I wasn't sure where to post this so I will post this here and you can move it to where you see fit. This post is strictly my opinion on what I believe will make KOAR the BEST clan. These posts will come in different sections as I don't have time to write all my ideas in one sitting (I get bored of writing real fast lol). This is also not to offend any of the founding members of KOAR. With that aside, please read my opinions below and feedback is greatly appreciated! Also some of this might already be in place (which is awesome) but I just posted it to be complete. This section is some basic ideas but mainly focuses on joining and rank up tests.


Basics

KOAR is strictly a Search & Destroy Clan.

KOAR is broken up into squads of 6 members.

There are 6 members to a squad

Each squad has the following members

1 Captian
1 Lieutenant
4 Players ranging from privates to Sergeant Majors

Once a squad has 6 solid members then a new squad is formed for another six

This would mean that KOAR can be expanded as long as there are people willing to join the clan.

OR

KOAR can be limited to only 6 squads

Alpha
Bravo
Charlie
Delta
Echo
Foxtrot

This would set the clan (KOAR) to a maximum of 36 players (which would then be easier to maintain)

Squad members should only play with other squad members

I believe each squad should have its members in the same location (geograph wise) (ex. I am from MO, Wet is from IL, and Cali is from TN, we are all central USA, which would cut down on lag)


Testing

To join the clan and become a private:

The joinie(s) must play a 6v6 in Hardcore search against members of the clan (excluding Captians). The Captian(s) will be in spectate mode examining the joinie(s) performance (team play, routes, seriousness, alertness, etc.) The captian(s) will then determine if the joinie(s) skills are suffiecent enough to become a KOAR private. If the joinie(s) fail then they will have a chance to retest after 1 week. Each joinie(s) can have up to 2 retests. After failing the 2nd retest you will not be able to join the clan. After the joinie(s) is accepted into the clan they must register on the clan's website.

To rank up:

Private >> Specialist (1v1)
Specialist >> Sergeant (1v2)
Sergeant >> Staff Sergeant (1v3)
Staff Serg. >> Serg. 1st Class (1v2)
Serg. 1st Class >> Serg. Major (2v4)
Serg. Major >> Lieutentant (3v6)


Private >> Specialist (1v1):

Must be in the clan for atleast 1 month prior to testing and the captian of your squad must determine if you are ready for ranking up or not. Must play a 1v1 against any non-captian member of a different squad. Your objective is the to clutch a match after the bomb has been planted. You will not be able to move from your spawn until the bomb has been planted. You will be given three chances in which you must clutch atleast once. If you fail the test, you may retest after 2 weeks time. (Small - Medium Maps Only)

Specialist >> Sergeant (1v2):

Same as Private >> Specialist except you are 1v2 now and must clutch 2 out of 3 of defusing the bomb. Must also wait 1 month after becoming a specialist to qualify for the rank up. (No Small Maps)

Sergeant >> Staff Sergeant (1v3):

Same as Private >> Specialist except you are 1v3 now and must clutch 2 out of 3 of defusing the bomb. Must also wait 1 month after becoming a sergeant to qualify for the rank up. (No Small Maps)

Staff Serg. >> Serg. 1st Class (1v2):

Must be in clan for more than 4 months to qualify. Must be an active member in the clan. Must be referred by your captian to qualify. This will be a match against you and 2 captians. You will need to clutch atleast 3 rounds (defusing or planting or both). Only large maps may be used for this test. If you fail then you may retest after 3 weeks time.

Serg. 1st Class >> Serg. Major (2v4):

Must be in clan for more than 6 months to qualify. Must be an active member in the clan. Must be referred by your captian to qualify. This will be a match against you and 1 member from another squad vs. 4 captians/Lieutenants. You will need to win the entire search match (defusing and planting). Your individual performance will also be a factor. Only large maps may be used for this test. If you fail then you may retest after 3 weeks time.

Serg. Major >> Lieutentant (3v6):

Must be in clan for more than 9 months to qualify. Must be an active member in the clan. Must be referred by your captian to qualify. This will be a match against you and 2 members from another squad vs. 6 captians/Lieutenants. You will need to win the entire search match (defusing and planting). Your individual performance will also be a factor. Only large maps may be used for this test. If you fail then you may retest after 1 month time.

All I can say at this moment is that I am very happy to see another member getting "active" (lol no pun intended) with the clan. The clan needs workers as well as awesome players and Active is certainly one member who is doing both.

Here is some feedback on some things you posted:

1. Timeframes - I noticed that the period of time between chance for rank up and period of time before rank up becomes available again is a long time. I think that would make each rank more respected, but being that a new CoD comes out every year, it might be difficult to maintain a strong base if there are very good, very active members that want a higher rank but have to wait a long period of time to attain that rank.

2. Testing Process - I like the different spin that you have on the testing process. I feel that it can be extremely difficult even for high skill players. Myself, for example, have to do a 4 v 1 clutch against officers and captains to attain a officer (major) rank. LOL. . .That might take awhile. I like what you said about the spectating, and I know for a fact that Barman and the officers are good at watching clan members performance. Everybody has strong and weak points. Even the best players in the clan.


If you have read JM's manifesto, you'll find that he put a lot of work into it. I think you guys should together sometime and help each other out with the logistics because obviously you guys have a nack for it.

Cheers!

i like some of your ideas and some of them are in places i'll go over this ideas with bar ad other officers
