Few points in rebuttal.
Your post structure sucks. Use some enter key occasionally for everyone's sake.
Regarding the Alliance Tournament. I looked at the final standings, conveniently located on this very same website. SV came out with more points than Noir.
I also wasn't exactly insulting Pit Boss. Just stating the facts that those guys were pretty much the core of Privateers and they're reforming as Orphanage. Not an insult.
As to putting SV in the big three. I've used them and they got results. I'm not the only one who considers them to be up in that level. Also their wars against both REPO and Orphanage demonstrate kills and efficiency that would indicate that.
However, I am not nor ever have been one of their alts. A lot of eve can be learned from listening to people, reading into the killboards, and working with them in a business situation. Am I a merc personally? No. Have I worked with them and seen results? Yes. I feel that gives me enough experience to judge.
I would also like to make a final point. You castigate me for not actually being a merc, yet making comments about them. Logically this means that you are arguing from a position of more experience, which means that you are exactly what you claim I am. An alt of a mercenary who is mad. I suspect a REPO alt.

Well that's not too terribly challenging. Have noir ever even killed a single ship in their alliance tourny history? -------------------------------------------------------------------

This is not knowledge I have actively researched. I just wanted to make a comment on one of the fundamantel points he made.
You cannot point at A's result in a event and laugh at it, and then rank B higher than A if B performed even worse.
Simply stupid.

I would accept that adage.
Tell it to the lad who used poor logic in an attempt to defeat me in a battle of wits.
For that we need another adage.
When coming to a battle of wits, don't come unarmed.

Oh no now you attack how I post on a forum my sentence structure. Here let me give you speeling to corect now. As for me am I a repo alt? Where have I ever mention repo? And didnÆt repo fail also? Or even stated I was an expert about merc stuff show me anyplace or anything that could lead you to that. Yet you continue to defend snatch and continue to post stating your not. Just proving to me you are. Battle of wits no not really I was stating youÆre a pompous a$$ and you continue to prove me right. As I stated in the beginning of this have the balls to post with your main like the rest of the mercs do.

Please keep posting. You're funny.

TL:DR Would have tried except there was no sentence structure.

I was going to reply to Gregors post but honestly it looks as if everyone here can navigate the forums better than I can. they'll see that we did not give up the client. as for standings. every pilot in the alliance can freely travel to every empire unimpeded, with the exception of my alt Celebrin Shoaf. I like pods... and as far as inaccurate killboards... one of the CEOs refused to give his API. as Gregor pointed out, that's been taken care of. oh, good bad or indifferent, thank you all for the bumps.

Originally by: Sheba Gartenna IÆm not at the least mad I just think your a pompous a$$. And while we are at it lets see have I ever told someone on this forum they fail before they even start no. And from what you say your not a merc alt and have only hired them and know a few of them so that makes you an expert ummm NO. You name the big 3 merc alliances as you call them. While you talk crap about 2 of them ôPitboss's new Privateers, Orphanage, TBH I'm not so sure about Noir any more since they don't smell like mercs any more but they can stay on the list for the time beingö and leave snatch victory alone. So that tells me your possibly a snatch victory alt. Which is ok with me as ive never had any dealings with snatch victory? Except watching them fail miserably during the alliance tournament. The other 2 organizations you name have the balls to at least post with their mains and yet you do not. Another thing who has ever said snatch victory should be classed as one of the big 3. I mean really who are they? What makes them part of the big 3 as you say? Oh thatÆs right your one of there alts. So if you want to make other mercs look bad at least come out and do it with your main. Or if youÆre not an alt and want to be such a merc expert why donÆt you become one. Then even I myself will read and maybe even take your advice. Oh and so that it doesn't seem like Im trying to hijack this thread. Best of luck to you DARK ANGEL CHAPTER!!! Who cares what this armchair quarterback has to say unless he can prove he knows what he is speaking about.

Thanks m8.

I like pods... and as far as inaccurate killboards... one of the CEOs refused to give his API. as Gregor pointed out, that's been taken care of. oh, good bad or indifferent, thank you all for the bumps. And again, for the record. regardless of performace. We never did Violate the terms of the contract or the trust of Client. Some information was just entirely too public.
I could easily post the chat logs of convos with Tolowim and Nitees, just has you could has easily claim they where fabricated. However that does not change the fact that they happened and you have internal problems with inexperience players.
It was reasonably clear who the Client was from his posts on C&P, however that doesn't change the fact that both Tolowim and Nitess dropped his name. What wasn't completely clear from Arador's posts where the "Terms" of the contract. Destroy us? Cause us to drop the Dec? Keep us busy? The vague "keep us busy" we learned from Tolowim. BTW, this the closest I want to get to flaming: you didn't succeed, check our kill boards.
A quick look at your members factional reps will start to show problems, although Diplomacy V would help most of that. Also it was mentioned to us that the majority of your neutral help and friends where locked in their ability to move around. It's just the reality of High Sec warfare that neutral scouts and repping and plenty of good friends around the areas of operation go a long way to a successful contract.
The more pressing issue was the complete lack of active pilots you had available for your Client's needs. A problem your own pilots where quick to complain about. A problem so acute that one of your members actually admitted in Local chat to account sharing with her Corp buddies so they could be logged in and hopefully distract us with locates on AFK pilots. You yourself only seemed to log in now and then and where never seen. Now trust me as an older player with a family I can fully understand RL issues being greater than EVE play time, but if the majority of your player base is absent I'd suggest it would not be appropriate to take contracts during that time.
You have an organization that with some work could possibly become a fight force, there was a great amount of "fighting spirit" and willingness to learn from mistakes, but your younger pilots need some serious guidance before that becomes a reality. Until that reality is obtained I don't see how it is appropriate for you to continue to take a Client's isk while not being able to fulfill a contract.
As for your Killboard a API from a Executor Corp CEO should be enough to post all the kills. If it doesn't I'd suggest to look around for a new one.

I am not even going to comment on the contract anymore than I have. as far as the active Pilot situation, we had a couple of people Including myself having to attend to RL issues. I personally work on Tankers, Noramlly I can log on for 6 hours or so at night, but this BP situation has me goinf full time. I can only do administrative things. But, you are right. we weren't prepared for this and we never should have taken the contract. it wasn't fair to the client and it certainly wasn't fair to My guys. But we are learning from this, and every flame on this post helps. This has helped alot in how we conduct ourselves on future contracts, if we aquire any. I appreciate your candor as it is a springboard by which we institute new policy. I hate the fact that we are coming out the gate with such a huge black eye.

Performance should be all that matters, effort is nice, but is it getting the job done? If I told my boss at work that I tried but couldn't get something done then more than likely I would be told "not good enough."
