I know I deserve no special exception, but seeing as how I have been on many AT teams prior but was in a noob corp for the last few months, i had no home alliance. I did decide to join up with some friends for this new tourney but seeing as how I was in a corp / alliance that isnt even eligable for the tourney, I am left wondering what can I possibly do since I cannot enter at all?
Also how do I send this petition? |

My only real thought about limiting the alliances for the alliance tourney is to do just that.... let me explain.
Alliances come and go all the time. For the "alliance" tourney. If you are going to limit anything, limit the age of the alliance. I will use the example of "The Five" from tournaments past or Goggle wearing internet crime fighters. They were formed solely for the tournaments. This is what it sounds like CCP wishes to stop. However people come and go from alliances / corps all the time. My suggestion is to limit the age on the alliance, not to limit the individual player.
Let people join established alliances. This way everyone still has a chance to participate, but they just cannot make a new alliance for it, they actually have to be in an alliance that already exists.
So.... instead of DHB-WildCat must be a member of Hydra before downtime...... It would be Hydra must be a created alliance of more than lets say 10 people (to avoid one man holding an alt in a fake alliance) to be eligible for the tournament.
Anyways just my idea.

We're going to hold off on announcing most decisions so far until we have had a chance to discuss them with the wider team, but I wanted to make sure you all knew that we have not forgotten anyone.
thank you for keeping us updated. I hope you will consider everyone. I completely understand the rule, however I do know that there are a lot of situations that include a lot of people that have posted here, that hopefully will be allowed to join there teams. The tournament is better off, imo, with some of the names people can recognize. For example, Tyrrax and his fun crazy set-ups that sometimes succeed in the most entertaining ways, and groups like 8cas, that do fly together under a corp, but form an alliance to be able to participate in the tournies. Most of everyone that has posted here has a deep root in the tourney and it wouldn't be the same or as fun without them.
I truly do appreciate you guys taking us all into consideration. If you don't mind, can you give us updates periodically on the petitions? Things like group meet today and discussed things, will meet again tommarrow. That way those of us, hoping will have some sort of updates from time to time.
Thank you,

There's probably nothing more important to do two weeks before an expansion.
don't get me wrong, by no means do I think this should take priority over the game itself. I was just asking if they had an extra 5 mins, if they could keep us updated. |

This is abuse of power, plain and simple.
hmmmmmmm does make you scratch your head. GL to everyone participating. I guess Im not worthy enough. Too bad, since tournaments are the only small gang warfare left in this game.
Grats Pandemic Legion, you guys put metagaming to an all new level! 8) |

You are always welcome to rejoin the alliance you were most recently a member of before May 15th.
lol so i can rejoin my home alliance right after the tourney flying for Suddenly Spaceships? Lol isnt that what you are eliminating here? No I think not, like I said I in my petition Suddenly blued everything in sight. They are not my alliance, Anyways gl with the tourney. I sincerely hope you get enough teams for a full 64 team tourney. I hope NEO was a fluke in that reguard. Many of these smaller alliances that do not have the moon income simply cannot afford to participate competetively. I know all of the teams I participated in were funded by 4 guys, and I know of at least 20 teams that were the same way, all of which will not be participating.
It will be interesting to see how this turns out. Its either going to be the best tourney ever with a wide open field. Or its literally going to be 5 teams steamrolling everyone with no competition until the semis, and the finals. Like I said, it will be very interesting to see how this turns out. 8) |

How can you be talking about the future of NEO if the past one has not been closed properly yet? I don't really see how it is going to develop with such an attitude.
As someone who placed in NEO..... I can say it was and still is a joke. Ive tried to be nice about it, but we are going on 6 months now without our prizes.
Why NEO wont / didnt succeed....
1) No prizes
2) Didnt even fill all the slots with teams
3) Too expensive
NEO is a joke with, so far, no rewards handed out.
Now a little tip for the smaller alliances getting ready to participate in this tourney. You are going to need a budget of over 100 billion isk. If you cant afford this, then you will get steamrolled, and tbh you'll just be wasting isk on entry fees. Most of this is going to come in implants that you will have to change out every fight depending on your set-ups. Also you'll have to have anywhere from 15-20 set-ups ready to go at any given time depending on the bans. You'll have to figure out how to attack and counter special edition ships.
I personally would have brought a cambion / etana / vangel / malice / adrestia to this tourney. I know others have more and are willing to use them as well. So gl to you all, and prepare for everything.
Have fun guys 07 |
