Note: This project is now lead by me, (Namranan) and cohosted with Perishing Song. So now all questions and suggestions regarding to CLC should be directed towards us now and not Illama, the former leader.

To register to participate in a core challenge, you must reply to this forum with the proper information to be eligible! See the example post below for details. This also applies for submitting peaks (with that said please keep all of your information onto 1 post)! Otherwise, refer to the Index Thread for the official rules and info on this project. Please make sure to post replays of your Hall of Fame Rankings, failure to do so will result in your post being ignored.

There will be a second challenge along with obtaining the Hall of Fame Rankings. This second challenge is the competition for the best Win/Loss Ratio in 30 games with each core, i.e. at 30 games, take a screenshot of your record and post it in your registration as well. The team with the best record will be added to its own Hall of Fame.

Back by popular demand, the peak challenge is now returning! This now means that in order to win the challenge you have to post a replay of your peak (Highest elo reached) and take a screenshot of your alt's rank on ladder after saving the replay. The person with the highest rank at the end of the week is the winner of the challenge and will get posted in a new hall of fame in the Index thread along with the team they were using. If you win, please PM the team to Perishing Song or me along with a brief description of the team and how you got the elo you got to.

Another quick announcement, I will be on hiatus from PS! and Smogon because of irl, so Perishing Song should be seen for any questions and will be taking over full time while I am absent.

Now without further ado have fun!
