Elder Talk - Clan Castle Requests

And now it's time for another segment of Elder Talk. This is a series where elders give advice, opinions, or suggestions. Or whatever else is on their minds. Today's post is another one from myself, Shuck:

I NEEDZ HEALER!!

DRAGON PLZ!11!!1eleben!!1

These requests tend to annoy me quite a bit, and to a lesser extent, dark troop requests. Our clan is still young. We've just begun to have more than a handful of Gold League members and not all of those necessarily have extremely high level troops. The average level troop for the Shucked clan at the moment is probably a level 3 Archer. Sure a handful of us have higher than that but not everyone.

Several of you may have noticed I updated the Clan Rules, mostly due to bad donation ratios and increasing eligibility, but you may have missed a new note I put under Minimum Unit Donation section. It says:

"Note: If you request very specific units it may be a while before you receive something. Not everyone is willing to compromise their army compositions just to keep certain troops available for specific requests. Either ask for a few different kinds of troops that fit your attack strategy or make the specific troop yourself. Or if you're fine with waiting, feel free to do so."

This isn't meant to be mean or rude but to provide a little reality to some members. Not everyone can give very specific troops. Furthermore, not everyone can afford the time or Elixer it may take to make your request. Some people's Army Camps may be full and can't even make troops.

That said, Shucked is a very generous clan and we want to help every member. Just be wary of what your asking for. Our general rule is if you can't make it, don't ask for it.

This has been Elder Talk. Thanks for reading.

New Rules Update!

Make sure to check out the Clan Rules page for some updates to the rules. To summarize the changes:

Before:
50 Minimum Donation
100 Donations for Elder
Level 35 required for Co-Leader

Now:
100 Minimum Donation
200 Donations for Elder
1:4 Donation to Received Troop Ratio (New!)Level 45 required for Co-Leader

Failure to meet these requirements may result in clan expulsion.

Town Hall 8 - Trophy Hunting

Town Hall 8! Getting closer to that final goal. There's not a lot of additional things here but you finally have access to Golems and Valkyries. Those are some pretty strong dark troops. You also get your Dark Elixer Drill. Yay! No more being forced to farm for Dark Elixer...well mostly.
