Shouldn't this be in the Clans forum?

In Muli's userscript's Search function, you can see the Clans ranked by Clan War rating. Your clan is currently #65 when ranked by Clan War Rating, around the same rating as Cats, {rp}, Harmony, KingKong, and ODI mafia:
Clan War Ratings use some variant of TrueSkill, per some apocryphal discussion during the early days. If you want to understand how TrueSkill works, you can check out MoserWare's classic article:
http://www.moserware.com/2010/03/computing-your-skill.html. But in general think of these as Elo-like win expectancy ratings computed at the clan level, so your wins/losses are treated as clan wins/losses (i.e., you are all one player: your clan).
There is likely no maximum rating. The minimum is 0.
Clan War Rating isn't designed to be used for ranking clans, so the decisions made (e.g., minimum rating of 0) align better with using it for matchmaking in Clan Wars and keeping win rates around 50%. i would advise against trying to optimize your Clan War Rating. If you want to highlight how good your clan is, do so through its performance on Clan Wars, MTL, the ladders, and the QM leaderboards.
If you want to maximize it, however, you can do so by:
- Increasing the participation in CW of the better players in your clan
- Encouraging players to play on templates where they perform better (win% is going to stabilize at 50%, ofc, but you have external metrics to tell you how good someone is at any of these templates)
- Having your players improve in their performance (in Elo/QM rating/MTL rating/etc.) terms on the Clan Wars templates
As for what constitutes a "good" Clan War Rating, I'd say you enter the company of acknowledged decent/good clans around 180-200. But Clan War Rating isn't really a way to build credibility as a strategic powerhouse, absent compelling performances on the ladders and in Clan League. It's taken seriously only insofar as it places the right clans (MASTER, Python) at the top but when you see other clans having high CW Ratings (e.g., PKU58ers, Republic of Korea), most people won't interpret that as meaning those clans are better than, e.g., M'Hunters or FCC. Clan League and MTL performance are still the authoritative measures of clan skill.
