Clan: Illuminati

I've been in this clan since July, and a LOT has happened inside it since then

• Forbidden Knowledge was the leader when I initially got in, but then he "forgot" his password and has remained "inactive" since. The managers as they are called are Great Expanse (sorry mate, I get you two mixed up :P, my reading was shite) and Stormers, who have stabilized the clan since FK's disappearance and kicked out all alt accounts in the clan to ensure everyone stays active.
  
  
• The ranking system (Students, Elites etc.) still exists, albeit with a few changes such as the inclusion of Professionals which closes up the small gap between becoming a Student or an Elite. The reason why this was changed was because the managers and others thought that the definition of the said Student (or other) didn't hold a significant meaning to the players actual skill-level.
  
  
• The clan has an internal Promotion/Relegation League similar to the one which can be found on the General WL forums. It is in it's third season (hasn't started yet), and it is very similar to the other one (in it's 17th season) in that it is played on the Strat 1v1 template, but new clan members are auto-joined to the lowest group by management.
  
  
• The clan forum is unfortunately rarely used, but to make up for this there are Clan chats in which everyone in the clan is placed on one team, and a random player from another clan is placed on the other. These games apparently take very long to finish if everyone joined.
  
  
• Recently, exclusive inter-clan tournaments have been made, such as two double-elimination Strat 1v1 tournaments, two round robin Strat 1v1 tournaments and a China 2v2 tournament. I see these as good ways to improve my skill and to improve my team-play and 1v1 gameplay.
  
  
• Members in this clan are very friendly

Overall, Illuminati is a clan which holds true to it's biography. While it is not as large as M'Hunters, it is still a decent sized clan with active players that teaches (not exclusively, though) 1v1 combat. It appears as though statistics doesn't play a part in entering this clan, I'd say that probably just about anybody could get in as long as they have a good grasp of the actual "strategy", as the clan calls it. The players inside it are pretty good and will help you with just about anything concerning 1v1 or team game-play.

@Sultan. I am pretty happy with my current arrangements but I could always put an alt in your clan.

@Benjamin I think I have a boxing themed alt to spare for AWF too.

Glorious Koala is a manager? News to me ^_^

I would also like to say that Illuminati (unfortunately) does not teach it's players how to not get confused between players with similar names, it would be a (useful) skill for people like myself.

@Sułtan Kosmitów, you are like Blitz, always underrated xD

@Nogals, Icelandic Turtles came from Master Turtle (used to be The Turtle) I guess, former leader of Turtles

And regl but Henns got rusty :)

All of us are rusty, that usually happens when you've been playing for 3,4 years and are semi-active :P

^ Nice description Kryszshchu xD

Death, about changing CORP's name into something that would identify our clan better (since it is no longer only a Rping/diplo based clan), I was the first to suggest it, well I asked about this possible update to Fizzer, but he keeps saying "no" without even giving further explanations about why not implementing it... (even if we could pay him some dollars for it as I suggested, this way I think this would be a win-win situation, but it seems the WL community's opinion does not count at all).

S'all good Ryzys!

The original concept for the AWF was a pro wrestling theme. That gave us the belt structure and a reason to trash talk each other. I would think trash talking would appeal to a mouthy prick like Nogals but we ended up with a group of really nice players so we dropped that part and kept the belts.

Our main focus has always been to make the Warlight experience more fun. Sometimes ideas don't work out and sometimes they do so we are always in a state of refinement and tossing around new ideas. What we do now might not be what we're doing 6 months from now.

We have a wide range of personalities and skill levels in the clan. Some are competitive and some are casual. Our strong players are always willing to help our weaker players. We have plenty of internal clan games. Always looking to battle with other clans. You'll usually find some of our members in tournaments and ladders.

It's hard for me to compare and contrast AWF with other clans because it's the only clan I've been in but to sum things up the AWF tries to touch all bases and have the most fun we can while doing so.

Growth! lol

All clans here are respectable are are worthy of being called clans that give nothing but benefits to the WL Community!

What we should also take from this thread is ideas/opportunities differents clan offer to different members of the WL Community so we can inherit the next generation of Warlighters.
