we waited a very long time because the balance would not split our clan up, instead we ahd to set there and not play for TOO LONG.
"<[V]Crutch> licho fuked it lol"
There should be a vote option to swap between clan and ally balance and start the game balance.
Best of both worlds... you can have both, just not at once.

Strict clan balance was asked for. I think Licho said that you would have to spec some of the higher ELO clanned players in order to start in the case where balance cannot be found.
Either way, there ought to be a forcestart vote that can override balance in order to avoid situations like the one Crutch reports.
Obviously, the forcestart vote needs to be carried by more than a simple majority in order to pass.

maybe it's better, but who decides about that?
the attacker or the defender?

Meh, the balance has to stay as it is. Elo has to come into play or people will take advantage of largely weaker teams. Really as Jseah said, you need to decides what high elo players are playing, or in my opinion, maybe just maybe split among several games which will lessen the elo average.

With few players one can not be too picky,
Waiting for 8 players to make balance before a game can start during slow hours is just a waste of time. I found this common with 1900+ elo.

Yeah atm it does not block game from starting but it might shuffle teams into non-sensical (clan vs ally) if forced by huge elo differenced

The clans should get random ppls - that would solve the problem

Random Clans unfortunently is counterintutive to PW. People partially play PW to play on teams with friends.

Yea send random noobs on a team with a clan to play a
competative
*clanwar*, nice thought XDXDXDXDXDXD, also if i will be ever balanced to a enemy clan again, i will just start sabotaging them. Basically the same thing happens when noobs get balanced to my clan. Also, why do noobs and people without a clan participate in a CLANwar? I've talked with a bunch of people and they all think its not right. my 2 cents

@Airi:

I didn't say balance mixed teams :)
only to add a new PW use to a random clan or If he didn't want to play, remember witch clan he was in.
Then each clan get equal numbers of noobs and active players.
You would have to play with random other ppls.
It would really be a WAR - A real challenge
