suggestion: have clans/teams register all their players, but their score each week is the average of their top 3 for that particular week. larger lineups won't be dragged down by weaker players or people who don't ladder that particular week

Doesn't that go against the purpose of this league? They're trying to get as many people to ladder on SEA as possible, not just 3 top players from each clan

Maybe we can just have two scores then, an overall average and a top 3 average?

Edit: actually thinking about it, that would only encourage the top 3 people to play, not the whole clan, therefore defeats the purpose.

when we do club vs club fishing competitions we use this system (they actually make the club score average of top x, where x is number of people in the club with least people participating, same principle). it gives the club with more participants an advantage (anyone who has a bad day/unlucky day doesn't have their score used) but not an 'unfair' advantage.

i suggest it because under 'average of all GMs', anyone who is not the highest ranked player in their clan (or at least above the clan average) is actually dragging the clan score down, and would best serve their clan in this competition by dropping out of GM (or not participating if it's fishing).

average of top 3 (i pick that as a sort of 'minimum', make it 5 or 10 same principle), or someone like light or tgun could declare themselves a clan for this comp and win top 'clan' by themselves), they don't drag their clan down by laddering. maybe one week (or more) they break into the top 3 of their clan, maybe they don't. but the clan benefits more from them trying than it does from them dropping out of GM.

obviuosly up to you if you're running it. just a suggestion.
