Clash of Clans

I will lower the trophies and let the clan know. If you get rejected (it happens), it's because someone missed the message. Just reapply if it happens.
 
I'll repost the tips in one combined post tomorrow. wars are always twice a week. Prep days start Mon 9pm and Thu 9pm. They last 24 hours, here you prepare your war base, while higher members fill the clan castles. War days start Tue 9pm and Fri 9pm, also lasting 24 hours. This is when you attack :)
 
A repost of mine (Grinch) and Fez's (Sam Parmenter) war tips from a few weeks back. I've condensed them a little to avoid repetition

Clan Wars has been out for a few weeks now and although I think as clan we have improved somewhat, there are still some mistakes being made. Here are some tips for the OCUK clan:

Basic Stuff
1. There are 2 wars each week.
2. Prep days last 24 hrs and start Monday 9pm and Thursday 9pm
3. War days last 24hrs and start Tuesday 9pm and Friday 9pm
4. Everyone try to get both attacks in, participation makes a massive difference.

The Prep Day
5. During prep days - donations on the clan wars map are for DEFENSIVE troops only, they aren't used when you attack! Donations should be Wizards or Dragons mainly, then Archers or Minions to fill the remaining space. Higher level players donating higher level troops are usually happy to fill these up.
6. If you can't donate lvl 5 or 6 wizards please don't donate for clan wars as healers, giants and hogs are not great defensive troops. The higher players will always fill the whole clans castles with wizards and we have plenty of members with lvl5+ wizards.

The War Day
7. During war days every player has 2 attacks, if you are available please try and get your 2 attacks in, it is in detriment to your clan mates if you do not attack!
8. In the first few hours of war it makes sense to let lower level players to attack first and choose their targets. If that isn't possible, your target should be something around your recommended.
9. I know its tempting to hit that top player with their town hall exposed (known as sniping) for a single star and get a mega pay day but please remember that we need the stars. Unless we win the war you will probably have spent more on troops that you get in the losers war bonus. Think of the clan and not yourself when choosing the target. If the clan doesn't win, nobody gets their loot... including you! Players who are found to be regularly doing this will face the possibility of being kicked.
10. Please take the time to make a proper army instead of using a farming army. Remember that the rules are the same as normal attacks, 1 star for town hall, 1 star for 50% and 1 star for 100%. That means that you can get 1 star for 95% or 2 stars for 50%, have a think about what will get you the max number of stars.

Attacking Tips
11. Scout the base first and look for weaknesses, especially where you could possibly draw out the CC troops. Click on each in turn and see where their attack radius extends too. Make sure you know how many clan castle troops your target will have and make sure you lure them all out. Like ourselves, almost every other clan will have filled their CC with wizards even for low level players. A few lvl5 wizards can kill 20 giants of any level in about 5 seconds if you are unlucky.
12. When attacking ALWAYS try and lure out the clan troops. CC troops are very often wizards that can quickly decimate an entire attack. Draw them out, pull them to the corner and pick them off by creating a circle around them with archers to stop the wizards being able to use their splash damage to kill multiple troops in one hit. There are videos on YouTube that demo this.
13. If you are going to attack a base that has already been attacked to try and improve on the number of stars, look at the previous reply to see if you can get any info like where are their bombs, what is in their CC and where are hidden teslas.
14.If you see a 3 star attack on someone, have a look at the replay for some tips. Unless they have picked on a really easy target for their level, you should see an example of a good attack. The counts for both sides. If you see an attack on one of us that is 3 star, have a look.
15. At TH7 the best tactic for attack is a 10 dragon attack with 3 rage/heal spells. You should be able to 3 star any other TH7 base that way. You should also be able to 3 star the odd TH8, but most often 2 star.

My stupid iPhone 5 has died. The battery has been getting worse for weeks now and has finally given up the ghost - it won't charge at all. I've got an appointment with Apple tomorrow after work.

I'll try and post any big raids on me as i'm going to get hit pretty hard!

Fingers crossed you're back up and running soon!
 
Had a great result with the phone.

Paid £55 for Apple to replace the battery as it was showing as worn when they did their diagnostics. It wouldn't power up at all the next day so I took it back into them. They confirmed it was dead and that Three would cover it under a 2 year European warranty.

Now my 2 weeks short of 2 years old iPhone 5 has been replaced with a brand new one :). They also refunded the charge for the battery.

Need to work out whether to get a iPhone 6 and sell the 5 on or sell the 6 on in a few weeks.
 
ok guys, how do i get involved in this clan, I have a clan, but with only 3 people in it i'm missing out on the clan wars part of the game.

i have been as high as 2600 trophies but have taken a nose dive down to around 1700 since then.

so, can i get involved?
 
Yeah sure, send a request to OCUK. What is your IG name so we don't reject by mistake?

Edit: Actually if you say who you are from the forums on your application then that should be enough to avoid any problems.
 
That won't be confusing then ;)

If you get great troops from the off, you know they haven't twigged :)

Oh and welcome
 
From Supercell's Twitter/Facebook feed:

Fireballs aren’t the only trick the Wizard has up his sleeve... Stay tuned for Wizard event Maintenance break coming soon!

Should be interesting! Maintenance break on now and back in 30mins.
 
We close it during wars to prevent anyone from the opposing clan trying to spy :)

I'll open it up now... can you just say who you are and that you are from the forums in your application to avoid rejections.
