the general idea is to not overburden referees with rules, so that they make less mistakes.

we've been waiting for almost 2.5 years for ingame changes to help these things

as someone who ran a succesfull competitive Clan I can give you some advice on what you need to do.

if all 4 of you are invested and ready to be competitive, then get ingame and play as much as you can and learn.

Find people ingame who you like playing with, invite them and eventually create a second ship.

when you have 8 people contact the other active Clans and Schedule practice vs them, take the beating and learn from it. Discuss with eachother what needs to change in order for you to be better.

Sign up for SCS, dont expect to win, but use it as practice.

make friends with other Clans, and you personally with other Clan leaders, their advice will help you a lot.

Expect your players to stop playing or disappear, when this happen: keep your friendship, but replace them on the team and move forward, it happens.

then 2-3 months from now you will be a solid team.

They could back off, or they could keep tryharding their best to prevent any other team from getting the title.

If everyone gets the title, it's a pretty empty and meaningless title. If only a few people have it, it can be something to take pride in. The Skirmisher title is already pointless before it's been released. The Skirmish Champion is another story. Teams could easily win it, and then sit back and let other teams win it (showing an incredible level of arrogance). This means that less people would participate or try in SCS. I have my title, why bother competing again (or why bother tryharding again)? On the other hand, a few teams could win it, and then keep fighting over every Sunday to prevent as many teams as possible from getting it. This makes the title more valuable in a way, but would also cause the SCS to become increasingly more tryhard competitive.

it is also plausible that everyone participating in "SCS with titles" will start playing ari buccaneers isntead, but hey its just a theory and i dont have to test it because i already gave you the scenario

are we really arguing over some titles?

Like really?

They are titles.

stop speculating about wether it makes it more competitive or not, if it does then the organizers can change it again, if it doesnt then win/win?

Everytime something is suggested people make up doomsday profecies, instead of just calmly wait and then give feedback, after it has been tested.
And this is not only for competitive events, but also why the dev app testing is so goddamn terrible. Goio players just arent willing to test and learn, instead of becoming angry and base knowledge on theories.

I imidiately think about science discussions.
In order to learn, you have to test and watch the results, not just theorize and accept the plausible solution.

the reason why this is a good idea is to get people to signup, since they will get something even though they dont win.

Its not monetary and not costumes which you can farm vs devs anyway. its something you can only get here. Thats how marketing works bearit

also its just a title, they are part of this game, if you want it then participate.

 also np lue, just friendly poking you

SCS originally founded by Velvet and Skrimskraw, and continued by DJ Logicalia

corrected that

this is the end of the saga that revolves around the skywalker family, thats why she cant be a farm girl.

Disney has no intentions of ending the story after episode 9. They are going to keep making things within the franchise, most likely some animated movies etc.

I'm actually looking forward to watching rogue one to see if its better than episode 7.
