I do not know what ringers you're referring to, but we will have some alliance guys with us. I highly doubt we have 16 Se\7eN guys on. No matter, no one in our alliance can be considered a "ringer" in my definition of the word. I think most--if not all--would laugh at being called that. :) |

Anyone outside of the corp are ringers. But again..it's not a deal. I don't care who you guys bring in, I will just alert my guys that anyone could be in the match.
I just thought fight club was your corp only....that's why I asked. Since, I'm not going to be on, I dont know who's going to be on for us but I would've told them to play just Ahrendee, even if we're short. But now, I'll tell them to fill slots just in case we don't have 16. |

There will only be 1-2 "ringers" (why are they called that?) in this match, mainly because we bring elements to the battle that weren't necessarily there before. Our alliance plays a pretty big role in wanting to squeeze the best of the ally players to help progress our ally corps further up the chain. I was also present in The General's PC fightclub match as well. |

From urbandictionary.com, 'ringer' (in the gaming world) is "a Counter-Strike term (used in other games, too) that means a person that plays in a scrim or war against as a member of the clan, but is not actually in the clan."
I've always used 'ringer' as a pro brought in to play an amateur game, like basketball or bowling.
Anyway, looking forward to the battle tonight. Let's have some fun.

Yeah, my definition is wrong, then. No biggie. Just like with The Generals, I'll do my best to field 16, no matter if they're in my corp or not. But the people that fill holes will be from our alliance. |

Again...I don't care if you bring in ringers. I'll just let my guys know that ringers are allowed. I'm not online so I can't grab people to play in the battle that aren't signed on. So, if my guys are short, I'll tell them to fill the slots instead of playing short. |

No, I don't give two craps, either. But I think this is a good conversation for everyone on PFC to read. I think a lot of people have a different thing in mind when they hear "ringers." I think back to The Simpsons' episode where Burns hires all those MLB All-Stars to play in his company softball game.
Griffey Jr. with the huge head...anybody remember this?
Anyway, now when people are setting up fights on PFC, they know the other team might bring in ringers. So, do whatever you can to have 16 there.
I know we're looking forward to tonight. |

See, I always thought ringers referred to people you paid to come to your aid. ;) I stand corrected.
S.e.V.e.N. is one of the most self-sufficient corps in our alliance, but much of our alliance takes a very communal attitude to play. We all are invested in every match the alliance participates in. I come from the EVE side of things originally, but in my book, a SE7N match is no different to me than a NEMW match, except who has to be squad leader to get us in the fight.
I'm stuck doing IT work at the office. Best of luck to both sides! Fight well! |

The definition of a ringer is simple. A ringer is someone who is not a member of a clan that is participating in a clan battle. Or, they can be someone who recently joined a clan for the sole purpose of playing in a scheduled clan battle...and usually leaves after the clan battle.
In other games, ringing is frowned upon, but in Dust it is accepted. My only thing is that I thought that since fight club isn't about conquering and defending districts, I thought that corps would have full teams. But I guess, fight club is really just about having battles. It makes no difference to me but that's what I thought. So, even if we came up short on the roster, we would just cue how many are online...win or lose. But since ringing is acceptable on fight club as well, then we'll just fill slots if we're short. |

See, but "clan" is a purely non-DUST expression. games with clans don't have alliances. I'd argue that anyone in Top Men is part of my "clan".
For example, I wouldn't advocate any of our players bringing in people from outside Top Men to a Fight Club fight. But inside the alliance, I see nothing different between just one corp in the alliance and mixing corps in the alliance. |

Great game tonight, people. We got rolled, but we learned a lot. Lesson number 1: do not allow any sort of animal to fall on your electric line 5 minutes before a match.

clan and corp is the same thing. I can replace the word clan with corp in my definition and ringer will mean the same thing.
Top Men is an alliance of corps (clans) and, therefore, not one corp. The only way that it wouldn't be considered a ringer is if a battle is set up to be an alliance battle. So, if we set up a match and call it EoN vs Top Men, then players in Top Men in that battle wouldn't be considered ringers. In this case, someone that's outside of Top Men participating in the battle would be considered a ringer. But if a battle is set up between RND and Seven, then anyone not in RND or Seven that participates is a ringer. |

saying that a corp isn't a clan is like saying that a guild isn't a clan. My clan with tag, RND, migrated to Dust and is called corporation "Ahrendee". |
