The future of CDG is bright!

I am enlisting into NS in a few hours time, and there is still so much I personally would like to do for the clan.

It is always a goal of mine for the clan to take care of every single member, and not letting anyone be left out or hurt. Sadly I've not managed to do that. With the division system introduced into the clan, I hoped ALL members can be taken care of, by the admins/leaders/senior members. Clan CDG members we are making progress with the division system, but more can be done for our fellow members in our family. I call out to all division leaders/admins, senior members, and willing members let us invest some of our time to help one another in the clan, especially the weaker and less experienced members.

I dream for a clan CDG where everyone feels a sense of belonging, no one left out. where everyone and anyone can seek help when they are in need, and help unconditionally given. A refugee for people experiencing troubles or hardship in their life. A clan where everyone is happy, and we are truly a family.

To all members, please give your support to the leaders/admins of the clan. They truly want to make the clan a better place. Please invest some of your time to get to know people in the clan. Come on to the facebook page more regularly. If you have reached a certain elo, did well in competitions, did well in a game, etc. Share your success, or anyone's success in the clan and let us all congratulate one another. Success no matter big or small, is a stepping stone to something greater. Secondly, if you have some good information on anything regarding LoL or life, share it with the clan on the facebook page, so that everyone can benefit. thirdly, we need everyone's support to participate in the inhouse drafts at least once or twice a week, and communicate on the teamspeak channels. Make it a habit to participate regularly, so that we can get the inhouses started. Honestly, I used to find inhouses a waste of time, but once you give it a chance by attending regularly and coming on to the teamspeak channel, it can be very fun and entertaining. Nowadays I look forward to all inhouses. Lastly, please do not rage or bm your own clan mate. It will not solve anything. Keep the inhouses feedback orientated, instead of a place where the weaker members shy from. We cannot expect everyone to be perfect, we all make mistakes, and I encourage everyone to at least give an opportunity or a chance to those who have done you wrong, and make up. At the end of the day, it is better for all of us to stick together, make peace with one another, and benefit from each other.

To all division leaders and admins, I am relying on all of you to take care of the divisions. As I'm not in a good position to always be around to make decisions in the clan, all of you have been given the authority to do whatever you feel is necessary to ensure the clan stays strong and together. I really do hope we can stick to the inhouses you promised to your respective divisions. I would recommend to invest a little bit of your time before the division inhouse start, and drop a pm to the members online to remind them of the inhouse. Also when you say "tuesday inhouse at 8pm" that is a promise you make to your members in your division, and as leader we should do our best to keep our promises to the people who support and believe in us to lead them. As mentioned earlier, I really do feel that more can be done for the members in our CDG Family, I have no idea what we can do atm, but I'm sure as long as we invest a little of our time in the divisions and work together as a family/clan we can make CDG an even better place for everyone, a place that everyone can be proud of to call "my family, my clan, CDG". When I first started the clan, there was no one to help me, no loyal and active members, you guys are very lucky to be part of the leadership in the clan now, and I am a very lucky guy to have the support of all you guys helping me in the clan, and I appreciate that.

From the bottom of my heart, I thank you everyone for the amazing support you guys have given me and the clan for the past 16months. Big thank you to the retired admins/leaders, without you guys, the clan wouldn't have survived until now. Big thank you to the current admins and leaders Pink, Juiced, Valraven, Haiz, Illisia, Scorpion, impactless Stacey, Vera, Windowlicka, dufaux, Splitfinity, Darkace, Zexion, Snail, yume, guava, falconwingz, Scheibe, and elissanova. You all have my support! May we live long and prosper

Thank you thank you thank you

Introducing the Division System

Hello Everyone,

We have introduced the Division System to the clan for almost a week now. I've received alot of questions regarding the system, so I'm here to clarify any doubts or questions you guys may have on this new system that we implemented.


What is the division system?
There are currently 4 divisions in the clan. Each division has a set of leaders to manage its members. Which ever division you are placed into, is regardless of skill. For example division 1 does not mean that their, superior to division 2. Each division is equal, and is balanced with players of all standard. All members will be assigned a division within 3 days of joining the clan.


How do I know which division I'm in?
You may go over to the clan chat, and hover/put your mouse over your name. Please join your division group on garena messenger asap so that we can integrate you into the clan, and will not be left out in clan activities.

To join division go to garena messenger > Join group > Enter your division group ID number

Division 1- 132631
Division 2- 132600
Division 3- 34308
Division 4- 132772


What is the purpose of the divison system?
     > Easier management of members as we have over 250 members
     > Leaders and admins that you can approach when you need help 
     > Prevent members being left out


How can I contribute to my division?
     > By participating in the division inhouse drafts regularly to get to know our clan mates and improve
     > By mentoring less experienced members or be mentored by more experienced members
     > By Playing with your division members, and anyone from the clan
     > By dropping by your division group/clan chat and saying hi some times


That is all for now, and if you still have any questions you may approach me "CDG OolongTea". Hope you guys create an awesome experience with us in clan CoupDeGrace!
