Skillign Ladder - Surreal to sign up?

Warring and ladders have been dominated by combat-based clans for a number of years but, as we all know, clans aren’t all about PK’ing or indeed combat. That is why we launch our first ever Skilling Ladder today to give a competitive element to the Skilling community that will be officially led by Jagex.

Using the same techniques, rules and formalities of the Skilling Cup section of the Jagex Clan Cup from 2009 and 2010, the ladder will present a weekly battle of supremacy to see who can skill the best. The wars will be arranged and fought by the clans while the results will be processed and presented by our Jagex Elves*. The ladder will be launching as a ‘Beta’ meaning that rules may change in the future. Since a ladder is an on-going process we want to tweak it so that it meets the community's best interests.

So what better way to test out the new clan features then by organising your clan to participate in the ladder? Work out your winning strategy in the new clan area, pick ranks for the chosen few that will represent all that your clan stands for, set up your battle standard among the trees, rocks, and scenery so that the RuneScape populace will learn the name of your clan and help it go down in RuneScape history!

If you are already raring to go or want to find out more information about this new and exciting chance to prove your skilling prowess then you need go no further than the Jagex Skilling Ladder (BETA). It contains everything you need to know to take part and compete so what are you waiting for? Help us test this new feature for clans and skilling groups!

ok

Could be interesting, but probably a huge fail

I haven't read all of it but read some if it and it sounds pretty cool.
I wouldn't participate because I am a bad skiller, but I think it would be awesome if Surreal participated.

Sounds like a decent idea though it's not something I really care about, RS clans have been doing fine for years even without all this extra support.

Looks neat. I like the idea behind it, but the actual application I feel is going to end up lacking. I guess we'll see.

Could be worth a try but we already do a ton of stuff here in Surreal and this would basically be like doing a second skill week or replacing our skill weeks with whatever skill Jagex chooses. Maybe a bad idea, maybe not.

I'd rather not step into something so new. I think it would be a better idea to just sit back see how this sort of thing pans out first. More than likely it will be a flop.

I don't understand what they are talking about at all
