More detail to help others.
1. ER conducts tournaments for players that last a week long. The tournaments occur maybe 1x or 2x a month depending on participation.
2. The tournament requires all players to register and have an account in order for individual scores to be recorded. The stats/scores are calculated into a ranking, which is based on a statistical system that was developed for chess playing.
3. Please see this link for “About ER”
www.eclipticalrealms.com/about.asp4. Please see this link on how to get setup on the ER site:
www.eclipticalrealms.com/warsystem/forum-view.asp?forumid=41There are 2 threads that describe how to create a club (clan) and how to signup for an event or tournament. Managing of the club is minimal amount of effort. Typically, an official member of a clan will be the Club Captain. The Captain’s job is to inform their clan members to participate, handle accepting of fellow clan members to join the specific rosters (i.e., Battlefront roster). The club captain also Signs Up the club for an event (i.e., Battleweek 19). Eligible players are those on the roster.
5. Currently Signed Up Clubs are shown on the event page:
www.eclipticalrealms.com/wargames/war-homepage.asp?warid=2076. Current Rules of Battleweek:
www.eclipticalrealms.com/wargames/war-rules.asp?warid=2077. How does the SWBF1 Battleweek work?
a. This event does not require large amounts of effort like setting up a typical clan battle. Meaning, the event only lasts for 1 week.
b. If you are ready to play, you just login with your xfire and work out battles on the spot.
c. Logging into the public TeamSpeak Server provided by ER is also a place to meet and organize. The IP address to enter is: 68.178.231.10. Once your Club channel is setup, put yourself in the “Available for Match” subchannel. Otherwise you scan for other Battleweek players on TS sitting in their own subchannel to strike up a match.
d. People of different clans can be on the same team even. Matches can be anywhere from 1v1 to as large as desired w/ some pre-planning.
e. A clan becomes ranked when a minim. of 2 players get 6 matches played, which can happen very quickly and easily.
f. Furthermore, there are individual awards based on the calculated ranking. This BW19 offers an award for "Best New Club".
8. Finally, make sure you check the ER Forums for news/updates/etc. by the moderators or fellow players in the Star Wars: Battlefront board

www.eclipticalrealms.com/warsystem/thread-view.asp?threadid=2737&posts=610. Post any questions/comments/concerns freely. Player participation and feedback will ensure that the event continues indefinitely.
11.
