The Clan - Organization Thread v.2

Well, (not boasting) I was always active before the new thread idea started, and I am a leader, so I'm asking you guys as comrades to let me be the new head of "The Clan".

(anyway it goes I can help T_S make graphics, and I also know how to do some wicked things with CSS. Note that I would have to be the thread starter to add that though)

Oh, and c_o, no hard feelings about me voting for a new head leader eh?

Also note that I would change our classification to more ranks, let everyone in, and only test people that believed they were ready to move up a rank.
 
Oh, so now we're taking a vote on this? xD

My vote goes with Name. Because no offense, but I see more of a personality with him than Ooka..who, from what I've seen, takes poke-fighting way too seriously, to the point where he was ready to kick someone out from here because of a potential disconnect. So yeah, that's where i stand.


Dude, no way, it's NOT your fault at ALL, it's heck.. no where even NEAR your fault

The clan has just fallen apart, I'm reckoning the ONLY veteren Clan members are me, sims and Richard Steel, who is "dead" (college)

OH!? WELL I THINK YOU SHOULD JUST SHUT THE HELL UP! >O

...Yeah, i'm still here, i just led away from the D/P area after realizing that there's more to life than just..using little 2-D asian creatures to kick the hell out of eachother for entertainment. Plus i PMed you the other day for a match, remember? you never got back to me T___T
 
Sorry Ooka, I've gotta go with Name.

BTW, C_O is a great leader, I don't see a Problem for he/she to continue...

~T_S
 
I'll go with anyone as long there wont be any argument problems with this clan in the future.
 
Sabaku no Gaara said:
I misinterpreted that big time huh...xD I do agree that the "Clan" is falling apart. We don't do anything, there's never any events. Tournaments wouldn't matter at all to me considering I get knocked out in the very first round every time. xP (Thus the reason for asking for IV bred/EV trained pokemon)

Ooka said:
Well, I have to say, if I was put in charge I would do tons of things differently, but seeing as how c_o thinks I'm not deserving of the position, I guess it'll be up to me to just follow what everyone else says.

Name said:
I'm the one to blame, or perhaps the new rules ._.

Sabaku no Gaara said:
The "Clash" of the "Clan" has started. xD Anyway, no offense c_o, I think we need new management. ^^'

...and so forth on the same subject. I'll kind of ramble a bit here so bear with me.

If you guys had problems with the rules I was always open to suggestions, but I never heard them. I would have done tournaments but again we never really had enough members to get anything going, and I never heard of any member suggested events. I had my 'silly movesets' idea but there didn't seem to be too much interest.

Maybe my move to exclude just anyone from the clan was a bad idea. People more skilled at battling are likely to be older, and those who are older are more likely to have less free time (just look at those of us in college) so maybe I made a mistake there.

I never really wanted to be the head leader of the clan. I knew I didn't have the free time to really keep this thing going. Ideally, I would just want to be an Assistant or Normal leader who helps the guy or gal' in charge.

Ooka, the reason I didn't want to name you is that after the recent incidents with you (IRC and here on the forum) I was just a little wary. As you notice, I really try to keep things easy and cool and I don't really get set off or angry much. It might have been unfair of me though. Everyone gets angry at times.


So I guess here is my decision.

The Clan v.2 is over. The new purpose of this thread is to do the following:

Decide the new clan's leader(s)
Decide the new clan's policies and politics
Decide the new clan's details (little things like name, titles, etc)
Discuss how the clan can be improved in the transition
Provide a place to battle and discuss battling until the new thread it created

Some might want me as the previous leader to decide the new leader. I absolutely do not want to do this, and will only do so as a last resort if everyone demands that I do it. My 'power' to decide what happens in this clan extends only so far as all of you are willing to agree to it, so to that extent it is no different than if you all chose yourselves. And you choosing the new leader yourselves is exactly how I want you to vote.

Now Ooka, don't think I am going to exclude you from my vote as the new leader. While I may think you are a bit hotheaded at times, you are by far the member who has spent the most time posting in this thread next to Sabaku, and as far as I can tell you are the most active. You have admitted new members, run your own battle threads, and started a tier discussion. I don't really see Sabaku as having enough ambition to be the new leader but he also is in my list of considerations, as is Name for being a previous leader although his inactivity hampers my decision somewhat.

Finally, if there isn't any real decision after a period of say... two weeks or so? Then I will simply step down and leave. I might decide to do this sooner or later depending on how long this takes. No I am not angry at anyone, not even holding back anger! I would be delighted to see the clan moving along in someone else's hands.

Again, this decision of mine only goes as far as you guys want it to. If you want to take your following of this clan and go make your own fine, just don't name it "The Clan." If you all get fed up and say "Hey Okami, just name new head leader already and get this over with" then I will. If you want my approval for something (maybe my vote if we go that route) you can ask for it, 'cause I know my name holds a little weight in the clan given that I am a leader and NoS made me one. Doesn't mean I will just say yes to anything, but I'll consider it.

So there you go. Its in your hands now.

EDIT - Any ex-members of the clan before the move, including Toki (I removed him because I thought he was banned from PC permanently) and Sharingan Flames can contribute their opinion to this discussion. Secondly, you should not criticize them for doing so unless you can come up with a damn good reason why they shouldn't be allowed to contribute.

I've actually decided to leave PC, I come here everyday, battle almost anyone who's willing, and even agreed to EV train Saba's pokemon for him. The next thing I know the clan is in a mess, everyone is quitting, and people are picking a new leader. I figured, it's kinda obvious it should be me, well, the next thing I know, people start wanting one of the least active members here to lead us. It's not just this event that has made me leave though, keep that in mind, although it helped a lot. So, as my last words, I have few...

Saba deserves to be the leader. ( even though I 6-0d you today xD)

Well, bai....

Wait hold on, you're leaving just like that? we haven't even finished our business with the PC Wi-Fi tourney yet.
 
I won't be around here this weekend, or ever for that matter, so you should take the offer for a free round. I wish you the best in the tourney Lumine.

I know I am new to the clan but maybe to attract attention you might want to have like a tutor /apprentice thing doing, seeing as so many Veterans of PC say that this sub forum has become a n00b factory, and older people (college) are better (probably true) but this way we can bring those good times back (even though I want even here for that >.<)

I thought you left Murderface O_O

Yeah, sorry for the delayed battle (one month delay I think ha), I'll have it whenever you wish

Well, bai....

I knew this would be the outcome, and it's a bad one either way

This is why I was leaving the clan, that outcome shouldn't have been reached, and I'm pretty damn guilty about this situation, it is my fault

Gah.. very sorry about all this, especially you Ooka
 
Oh c'mon Ooka! DONT LEAVE! I read what you said, and now that I think about it, I did semi-vote one of the least active members... V_V Now I feel ashamed of myself and like a little suck up for saying:

I vote Ooka leader if he comes back.
Titles that should be made in the next thread:
"Clan" Leader
Graphics Designer(s)
Event Organizer(s) (I'd like to be in this one)
Breeder(s)
Teacher(s) (For the less experienced "Clan" members. I will go into detail on this later)
IV/EV People?
Trade Manager(s)

Policies should be normal. Standard rules, which I can dig up Night's, that's where I always get mine, I just restate some stuff and take out the item clause because even in a Standard battle no one follows that with all the Leftovers and stuff.
Just one thing, maybe we can "teach" newer members the "Clan" way. Instead of testing them, we teach them in a separate thread called "The "Clan" Academy" xD I think that'd be a cool idea. And as the final exam, they have to battle their teacher and show how they've improved and what they learned (and for homework they get EV training pokemon. xD And coming up with good teams, ect.) Just a thought...

The Clan can improve by attracting more attention with a full-fledged team of dedicated people, such as the good looking banner(s), the breeders, and the teachers. If we branch off into other sections, such as the trading section (which I myself have tried to do, but the thread failed to stay active) we may gain more popularity, knowledge of what people like and want, ect.

Obviously the main thread will be made in the Battle Section. The Academy in the general D/P section, the trading thread in the trade section (no way right!? xD) and any other ideas anyone has to branch off of just the main thread. I wouldn't mind being a "Teacher" considering I know tons about pokemon. I just don't really have the passion to do what I know (such as IV breeding and EV training) That passion will return eventually though, as soon as my Guitar Hero-ness dies (I'm getting sick of playing Through the Fire and Flames over and over and over, getting 2 notes away from the part that I can do, but I end up failing...)

I wasn't even blaming Ooka, I was instructing him for what he did wrong

Are you talking to me? xD I'm not complaining about you at all, just saying that I vote Ooka. He's trusted to me and he's a good battler.

lol i was tring to say that but none the less a clan acadeny would be a good idea but same thread is better >.<
 
I agree with everyone that says I'm not leader material, I take battles too seriously, and when I lose, I make up reasons as to why. I'm a cumpulsive liar, and you guys shouldn't have someone like me running "The Clan".

Note that it is no one person's fault. It all apparantly started with the battle against SharinganFlame, which he obviously disconnected... Let me tell you the situation, he had one of my Pokemon out, I had 2 of his out, he had a Feraligatr with Yellow health, and I just sent out Dugtrio, once he found out he was stuck, he disconnected, I saw "Dugtrio use Earthq.." then a D/C.

All that aside, I'm glad you still support be Saba, I just don't belong here, and I do still plan on EV training your Pokemon, I'll just be doing it at The Pokelounge instead of here.
