So the initialism or acronym of Clan League 8 is CL8. I've always thought of it in my mind, as being said something like "clate", but as it turns out, some folk call it "See-El-Eight". I mean, what? What?

Clate. That's how you say it. Am I wrong? It even sounds good to hear: clate. Against, what, C - L - Eight? eww, that sounds uglier.

Oh, and by the way: CL1 = clone?
