It's simple, it's very very difficult to get the 21k crowns. And they are forcing veteran players to make it twice. Do you know how much it takes a normal player who can spend some money on their account to get rex? It's easlily 7-8 months for someone who started the game and did never stopped playing and got accepted rappidly into a clan and the clan gave him/her all the required fame and a turn for all positions till Marshall withouth making him wait. And they want us all who already did all that process to repeat it all again? I have a few friends in my clan who I know since they started playing and the fastest guy to get his rex did it in 8 months. It took the rest a year or more, sometimes more than 2 years to get their rex, only their rex, not even the sheriff position, due to the difficulty, the waiting lists, and the wars. And I'm not even mentioning the 4k points and the sheriff requirement. It's simply an absurdity from their part.
