CLAN MATCH unwritten rules
(imo)
12) If a clan A ask clan B for a clanmatch, they can agree in playing 1 match only, but generally if nothing is said, 2 matches must be played. the first match is map + mode + side chosen by the clan A, the second is map + mode + side chosen by the clan B. B can disagree the enemy pick and refuse to play. this isnt a defeat.
by the way, this can only happens in the first map. if the clan A decide to leave at the end of the first map, the match is won by the clan B.
If teams are tied to 1 - 1, they may agree on a tie, if they dont, a third match must be played to decide the winner.
now, in the 3 round they can agree for the map + side + mode (generally a fair map like a tosok, or a ctf on shine/sunset/gothic/iceroad etc). if they cant agree, the clan A pick mode, the clan B pick map and the clan A pick sides (lol). it will avoid any unfair map, or any prepared strategy, cause clan B must pick a fair map, or clan A will pick the better side if the map is unfair.
regarding the servers and the issues: The better thing is to pick a server where all players have similar ping. if a clan refuse to play in a server cause unfair pings, it can purpose other servers, etc.
if in the middle of a match someone complain about lagging, is too late to change server. if the other clan is gentle it can stop the game to allow the player to reconnect, but only if someone says "stooooop wtf im playing alone" or something like this.
at the end of a round, A or B can purpose a different server if they had problems of lag, or they can purpose to change some players if the have to go. if the other clan agree, is ok. i the other clan doesnt agree, match must continue, eventually 3 vs 2 or 2 vs 1
if someone suddently disconnect or connect, and no one say "stop", the match can continue and flags/frags count. if someone say "stop" and enemy keep playing, flags/frags dont count.
