I know what you mean, our clan is 96b inf and the clan we have been matched with has a player in it who is over 50b inf, in this case they have well over half their overall inf in one account.

Pardon my ignorance,but how will knowing sleeping times help? Unless you mean you know when its safer to yield, but theres a flaw here too.If hes half the points, the rest together are half too, and theres more of them and they may be as equally if not more active.

I am curious as to how often traps actually work.

As these competitions are not designed to only score of the designated opponent, can you not look elswhere to lay traps or gain points?

Overall I agree with your point about  the need for  more equitable matches, in all events.

If your clan has a lot more members than your opponent then farming would be something you concentrate on ...

That is a total BS concept because unless you have a ton load of Domain Guards, they will cream your clan in no time at all. Right now, we are matched up with a clan that has 37 members while we only have 3! How is this supposed to be fair? it isnt and could never be, no matter what plarium responds with.
