I'll add more to this later but here are some current thoughts:

1. Write your own rules. Throughout the entire tournament the rules were unclear because they did not belong to JJ2 and they were not written edited properly. Parts conflicted, were ambigious, and were consistently changed through the season. This should not be the case. I expect when joining a clan tournament that by joining I agree to make my clan show up and to also have the tournament work by the prior made rules.

2. Decide on a scoring system and way to choose levels for all parts of the tournament.

3. Have records posted on the website. The website was not nearly as useful as possible since it didn't have a history of matches and scores/commentary on each match - we should be able to see each match that was played and scores for each map.

4. Do not let clans choose the times they want to play against each other. Choosing times for clans was the single most important thing that happened during this tournament - with large groups meeting it is necessary that a time be given first and if needed changed later. However, make it clear how to change times if necessary - IE put it in the rules.

5. Create a policy for deaths on the flag.

6. Remain active - the leader of a tournament like this NEEDS to be at all matches and supervise how things are going. A clan tournament is far less stable than something like JDC where people arrange their own matches and do their own things.

7. Think about alternative ranking systems. Notice that I put think, not change. It is always important to decide how the system can be tweaked to improve various things. I've always thought a double elimination tournament would be interesting. Please feel free to ask me about any scoring or rule changes if you have questions.

Overall things went quite well in general though. Well done R3p.
