Growing Pains and Joys

First of all, hello! Sorry it's been a while. Life has been crazy around the McRuger household. I'd like to thank BigDaddy for being such an awesome leader while Hab was away. You rock BD!!

In case you haven't noticed, our Clan Family has been growing quite big. We recently absorbed the remnants of a clan that was failing and have also had quite a few great recruits.

The Main Clan (MC1) is now almost full, and McRuger2 is nearing its limits. This all is wonderful, but also means we need to reorganize a bit.

Basically, MC1 and MC2 will remain the same. MC1 will fight once every league season and MC2 will be at near-constant war. But, we need to open up some space in MC1 to make moving between the clans easier. And we need some co-leads in MC2 (two to four total) who will stay in that clan to help organize.

We are going to require that all co-leads join our Facebook group, just to keep communication simple (https://www.facebook.com/groups/597856176933410/). Joining that group is optional for everyone else, but will be mandatory for co-leads.

This merge will also mean that MC1 will not be able to hold everyone for the "All Clan War" every league season. We have not yet figured out how to best manage that.

So, here's what we'd like you to do....

  1. Please, no Alt accounts in MC1 at any time. 
  2. If you're interested in being a more permanent co-lead in MC2, please join the Facebook page and please talk to Hab or BD. 
  3. Let's keep bouncing around to a minimum for a while. Bouncing from MC1 to MC2 and back makes things complicated. 
  4. Please don't recruit for MC1 as we work all this stuff out. 
  5. Our requirements for staying in MC1 will be a bit more rigorous. If you're going to stay in the main clan, we'd like you to be actually active. That means you should be donating well above 200 every league season. And we'd also like to see you active on chat. 
  6. Please be welcoming to our new clan members, point them to this blog to read the rules, and thank you for being patient as we work through this transition!!
