To me, the main difference is to escape the routine and have lots of players you know and you respect gathered in the same event. Join no-train competitions such as the 24 hours of Trackmania, ET fun cups or the Coppers Millions Cup, spectate a last-division ET league match if you don't get it.
I think you have a good point. That does explain the reason to a friendly competition :)

- Team Name
- Team Founder/s
- Founded date
...
- Catch line
- Membership application rules

Not sure to what extent people think this is a good idea but there were several reasons to why I thought it was:

- Increases networking (after all, this is a MMOG)
- Facilitates communication between teams
- Simplifies organization
- Saves times
- Allows comparison between teams
Awesome idea! :thumbsup:

Hi,

I am actually thinking on getting tm-teams ported to maniaplanet, I hadn't seen this post. If any one is interested here it is : http://forum.maniaplanet.com/viewtopic. ... 30&p=82346

Couldnt we affiliate seeing as what you would do is essentially what I am already doing? :P

But in any case, maniaplanet-clans is for all games, not just TM, which tm-teams is if I am corrrect?

tm-teams is for TMF only, that is why I am thinking of doing mania-teams.com wouch would be for all MP games and not Tmf; I have tm-teams runing for nearly 2 years now. :D
having it work for TMF and MP would be very hard as the Api to get data fom Nadeo is completely different from each other. Basically there will be 2 websites tm-teams.com and mania-teams.com.

The thing with tm-teams is that it is completely automated, teams are added by the owners, and can be deleted by the owners. I have nothing to do with it. I just want a valid mail from the team.
What I need to check is :
-Delete teams that hasn't a valid mail & send mail before
-Check for inactive teams(a tools helps me do it) and send mail & delete
-Check reported teams,
-and other special situations.

Doing it as you do it through a Forum is nice, and simple but it has its limitations. I am not saying what I did is great, it is just more built for what it does. I have in tm-teams 109 teams registred and all of them have been active in the last 6 month at leas once. There has been a total of 302 teams that has registered and been around for a time before disappearing. and many more teams that were invalid from the start. 3131 players are registered in our DB.
I don't see how you can get so much teams in the forum??

I am also working on tiwtter/facebook like widgets for putting your player list on your own webpage. I may be able to finish that this weekend.

I will really like tm-teams to be the reference for team finding in trackmania and have mania-teams for maniaplanet. but actualy tm-teams seems unused by alot of teams. Which is why I am not sure if I should or not do mania-tams, it will cost me money and time.

So there isn't any proof needed to show that a clan is actually a clan?

They need to validate their e-mail and have more then 3 players. Of course the 3 players need to have a account in TMF for tm-teams to found them

Im kinda suprised no one mentioned IRC in this case :shock:
its brilliant to get to talk with other teams and get to know other TM drivers, also a lot of info about tournaments and streams and matches about to be played and so on.

and it brings every TM game together in 1 place :yes:
With that said then i just mean its nice to still be a bit updated on TMN ect as i used to play that before TM2.
