In the past clan cups were poorly organised. The rules were not clear and Clans were eliminated on technicalities. If Clan Cups are going to be done again then please make sure that everyone is on a fair and level playing field and that the rules are clear so that everyone gets full enjoyment from participation.

support!

i've never participated in a clan cup, but i like the idea of interacting with other clans. i'd like to do some cooperative events too, if possible! coming from a smaller clan, it might be nice if 2 or more clans could join together for some events. for example, an activity of stealing creation, wherein the clan(s) to get the most points wins, and in order to get full teams, clans could combine with each other.

another event might be clan capping ratio. for example, during one cit cycle, determine the percentage of clan member participation wrt capping. so, a clan with 500 members, 150 of whom capped, would have a 30% score. and a clan with 60 members, 30 of whom capped, would have a 50% score.
due to the fact that clan cit cycles are distinct, the activity would need to be 2 weeks long, for each clan to be able to cycle through once.

I'd love to see a clan cup as long as it is really well organized. I think it could be a huge RuneScape streaming event too for things like clan wars if it's set up properly.

I can only a million percent agree with this.


Thimgs have to be fair or its so hard to get clan members to enter.

That would be nice, especially with JMod run events this time. The last one was... lacking in activities and official support I'd argue.

I also really enjoyed some of the weirder events like the Questing Cup and Maz's acorn insanity haha.

Fully support! My clan participated in the last 3 skill cups that were run by Jagex and it was so much fun & really brought the clan together. Our small clan finished in 11th place which was great considering the competition. We voted not to participate in the player run comps. It seemed like there would be little or no control over "illegally" earned xp and no one was the final authority regarding the rules.
I don't know if the comments about being disorganized were about player-run comps or some of the Jagex combat & ironman comps. We only participated in the skill cup, and on the whole it was well organized with each year showing improvement.
Some changes I'd like to see:
Scheduling--Do not have a DXP weekend during the comp. It was said that DXP wouldn't be counted for the comp (the same that xp bonuses didn't count), but it was counted during part of the weekend anyway.
Schedule the comp so it will end before or begin after runefest. Last time there was a break between week 4 and 5 because of runefest. It was hard to get the momentum going again.
Q & A--Create a page that is just for Q & A about general rules that apply to everyone. The forums ended up being pages long with comments, questions specific to a particular clan's situation, complaints, etc. Interspersed were questions that all of the clans needed answered, but the J-Mod answers were found several pages later.
Recruiting--Some clans were offering big sums to players to join their clan just for the comp. There was a lot of clan hopping. Perhaps new members need a certain amount of time in the clan before participating.
J-Mod oversight--there were many questions & clarification needed before one particular skill week. The J-Mod in charge had scheduled to be gone and no one was filling in during this time. Lots of confusion.

If you're running this Shauny the rules will be clear, questions will be answered, and it will be well organized. A Q&A on CLF would be good too.
