If they want each group to stop practicing together completely, then fine, just say so. If they want to do the same thing with us as they did with RvB and have us merge into a single team, then fine, just say so. However, saying nothing to either group when they both reached out to you and then banning them both just doesn't seem right.
Pretty sure it was the tournament team that banned you (sreegs) and they didn't even know about what the GM said to you until it was posted in the thread, ergo they hadn't read any of your correspondence.
Basically you made the mistake of talking to GMs when you shoulda been talking to Loxy or Sreegs (I think PL were talking to Loxy about the whole sniggwaffe not being a b-team thing?)
Anyways I dunno why anyone is surprised by your two teams getting banned, the rule was created specifically for you in the first place ;P |

I'm guessing Spitfire is just some community dev or something and doesn't know what he's talking about. |

I didn't know what mail you were talking about so I just ignored it, also paranoid much? |

no need for an investigation, the GM ****** up, the tourney team didn't bother replying to mails and Hydra/0utbreak were stupid / lazy and paid the price
i hope CCP end up letting one of their teams take part so we have a defending champion but doesn't seem very likely after Loxy's post |

I don't think that's true, there were always a few B-teams but most of the time alliances didn't have enough people interested / willing / capable enough to put in the time so they could afford to split their efforts like that.. Lots of alliances can't even field one team, let alone two.
PL this year f.i. wouldn't have had a B-team even if they'd been allowed to ( your votes don't count don't count since their team was entirely seperate / independent / full of spies ) |

loool alt much ? I wasn't even talking about hydra / 0utbreak, and you're wrong I don't really have anything against either entity - I think the tournament would definitely be better off with both teams taking part. I just also happen to think they were stupid and have nobody to blame but themselves for how things worked out.
Maybe you should cry some more about how much my posting hurts you deep inside ;[
As for what I think and know, it's a fuc kload more than you that's for sure, GH-SC had even infiltrated the so called PL B - team but clearly I'm just making all this up ~ |

No you didn't hit a nerve, I just like to communicate with idiots. What exactly did I misspell out of curiosity ? Far as I can tell my english here is much much better than yours.
I've never been a PL pet so I can't really go back to it, I was a member of a PL corp but that's not quite the same thing. |

Don't worry Sarah it's not just you I know more than anybody on the subject of alliance tournament, simply a question of interest and experience, nothing to do with having been in PL or having been dictator of the mighty Interstellar Alcohol Conglomerate. Pretty sure I'm the only person whose been captain of a team in 9 out of 10 alliance tournaments.
Still waiting for you to tell me what I spelled wrong btw :(
@ Filingo you sure those most of those teams weren't just high sec alliances and random nobodies ? I mean yeah of course there were some B-teams but 30% just sounds like way too high a number to me.
Best of luck to you as well, I hope my team makes it far enough to cross battle badgers with you o> |

You didn't quote all of the reasons they decided it was a B-team, but you're right I have been in PL twice and the part you quoted did worry me slightly but I'm the only connection and I was never even an FC in PL, just a grunt. I assure you we are not a B-Team and will make every effort to remove PL from the tournament, as you'll be able to see for yourself since they're the first team we'll be facing - obviously we're not practising with them and there is zero leadership in common between the alliances.
As Alekto said the Dystopia team has taken part in every single tournament under one name or another (except we didn't get into the 9th >_<), and our team has been playing together since long before PL started taking part.
I've never wanted to be part of their tournament team and honestly I don't think they would've let me anywhere near it due to trust issues. I want to win the tourney with a team of my own - preferably after completely stomping PL into the ground, since they're the team to beat - if I were to win the tourney as part of PL I'd just feel like a parasite latching onto someone successful because it's easier, would be a completely hollow victory. - I don't think I'll ever be a part of PL during Alliance Tournament, but that won't stop me from joining my friends in Habitual Euthanasia between tournaments for pew pew and fun.
The links between "Your votes don't count" and PL are much much tighter than the single link between PL and Dystopia, so CCP decided they were a B-team and I can see why they did so even if I don't agree. Deciding Dystopia is one would make zero sense, and thankfully so far they haven't.
Edit; here's the full quote from Sreegs;
Quote: YOUR VOTES DONGÇÖT COUNT is an alliance consisting of a holding corporation and Sniggwaffe, which is widely known as the farm team for Sniggerdly. This is a fact which they openly admit. Unfortunately given that fact, and given the fact that the team captain and CEO bounce regularly between or have alts in Pandemic Legion, we cannot consider them anything other than a B team for Pandemic Legion and as such have to remove them from eligibility for competition. |

Well as I said the part you quoted was only part of the reason they banned Sniggwaffe, I don't think they should've banned them since they weren't actually a B-Team, but I see why they did and I don't think it surprised anyone, maybe it does look bogus - but they don't have much to go on since they can't monitor out of game communications, they're just guessing and relying on indicators.. |
