I absolutely love your idea about giving this new EE to losing clans.
I'm gonna sign my clan up, fill whatever I need with alts, get everyone to park their gold and go take a nap/walk/watch a movie/anything but war. Ideally we'd get matched with another clan thinking the same thing, so no one suffers any loss at all, but hell, we get a top notch clan? Well, worry not! We won't be watching ourselves get pummelled anyway, will be busy doing other stuff.
Come back in 2 hours and get some free mith, yay! What a sweet deal, no pressure to perform or not perform, since I will get the same crap as anyone else in my clan who loses.
Devs, you still haven't come out to state what your opposition is to awarding miths to individual losing participants based on contribution?
You already have the formula for awarding winners, surely it's not hard to work that out for losers, and apply a penalty?
I know there are arguments against awarding losers anything based on principle, but the world manages to go along only when principles are loosened when necessary to meet certain objectives.
Leave EE as it, leave RR as is, leave that horrible no match EB as it is, start awarding losing individuals (losing individuals get rewarded based on performance, but clan doesn't, only winners get that from EE etc) miths.
You think any of the many bigger clans give a crap about earning 15 mith from some stupid EB? They're more worried about getting beat up and coming away with nothing, hence they just stay away. And let's face it, we all know who the beaters and beat up are.
No one's in a hurry to join the fray to get beat up, nothing in it for them, except the challenge of being humiliated, and getting nothing they could use to close the gap further on opponents whose equipment keeps putting further distance bewteen them.
So devs, why not?
