I don't know how I feel about this. On the one hand, voting needs to remain in the hands of the individual, without multiple votes being absorbed by one person. As the leader of this club, you can't simply use other people as your pawns to vote as you tell them to. It needs to be their choice.

On the other hand, there's nothing stopping people from talking about guides, especially top rated guides, that need to be downvoted or spreading the word about good upcoming guides. Spreading the word keeps the voter's decision to vote or not in their own hands, which is in accordance with site rules on voting.

I think if you want to make an impact on guide scores as a group, it needs to be a collaborative effort and not a hierarchical one. This can't be "throatslasher sends his 30 minions to downvote the top anivia guide." It needs to be "throatslasher tells people about a bad, top-rated guide and people decide to downvote it."

Also I think it's a really good idea that you're planning to speak to the author of the bad guide first before downvoting. Some authors of top-rated guides just don't know what to improve about it because sheep voters don't tell them.

It wouldn't be my minions, it would be Throatslasher, Psiguard, and 3 other platinum elo mobafire scouts command their 30 minions to go downvote a guide

If you don't know/don't agree, inform yourself or don't do ****. Don't just go "omg plat told me they must be right", it's the same behavior as "this is the top mundo guide so I must build 5 warmogs and upvote the good stuff".

I'm in. I can't imagine an Anivia guide 91% flash clarity.

Give me viable reasons to downvote/upvote a guide and I will. I don't need to join some club to do that.

The idea is ok, I do agree something needs to be done about some of those guides but I dont think we should have an oligarchy (as Psiguard said) be doing it.

you can pm me guides and ill look at them and try to use them and if they dont work then ill downvote them

but if you put me on the list of cool guys make sure you only pm me guides of the free week champions because i dont have a lot of champions

ALSO focusing on the free week champions might be better then just doing them randomly since the free week champions are going to be used more frequently
