    I was an active member of the League of Legends for just over a year,  imagine my suprise when I logged on today to find out I was no longer a member of a country club, especially since I had played a cc tourn. yesterday. When I checked, it looks like our founder Danmark2010 has quit WGT and with his leaving so did our club. I'm not sure why he left, I know he had been unhappy with WGT for some time. It seems a shame to me, that now a group of us are homeless and must start over looking for an active club to join. But even more troubling is the fact that another solid member has left.

    I would quickly PM every member and suggest you create your own under a club name that all you agree on, further more I would also suggest that you vote on who would take it over just in case this happens again. And maybe give the title of Country Club ownership to the person who may have been in charge of all activities that is still an active player on this sight. Or to the person that has been an active member of the country club the longest.

     

    Hope this helps

    Message Bigseanbig . He owns Augusta CC . Been around the block a few times and this has been by far the best CC yet. Monthly Match Play tournaments. Club has its own web-site. Twice a month we play other CCs in match play events. Plenty of free and pay to play events. And the best part. A lot of good chaps that are always up for alt shot and match play events. Never hard to find a game. He really runs a solid club.

    Any players from the League of Legends that need a club are welcome to join us over at the Wooden Tee CC.

    most any other owner would have turned the club over to someone else....what a shame to leave so many out in the cold

    Seems a bit selfish to just up & close a CC without first trying to turn it over, but I don't know the guy, nor the circumstances.

    I'd have to agree with Joe - there's no reason you can't regroup and form a new club. It would basically be the same CC minus 1 guy... and the 2 that have already joined other clubs.

    Good luck - Kelsey  =)

    selfish ***

    maybe like some said here,
    get together and get a new place,
    get your most organized prolific and active member
    to sign up as an owner and take it from there.

    This is a DARN SHAME. The Elite CC is near capacity at  the moment but I am sue there are MANY other clubs willing to help anyone who may need a NEW club. 

    As a former owner of a club I know the toll running a club can take on you after a while. I knew a time for change was in the air. I would have NEVER thought to dismantle an entire CC because of my weariness of running and maintaining the club. I took my time until I found the right member to step up and run The Elite CC the way I did but with a breathe of fresh air and new ideas. Because I was patient and transitioned the club in this manner The Elite CC is STRONGER than ever. Being soooo cold as to dissolve an ENTIRE CC WITH OUT WARNING not only do you close a very good CC, you leave allllllll the members out in the cold not belonging anywhere. That is complete and utter BS!

    The only good that comes from this is that now all of  you will belong to a CC whose owner will "care" about you and your plans as a WGT member. Good Luck to all of you looking for that NEW HOME. Im sure there will be MANY owners stepping up to offer you a spot. overtheedge / Jeff

    I have belonged to 3 since joining WGT. 2 were shut down, i left the 3rd one for reasons I won't discuss. They were super people but I didn't seem to fit in for some reason. I still have not found the right CC to join. I love to give all I have, but all giving can get old. Hope you all find a great new home.
