Giant sounds good.
Anyone want to help me get the specifics down so we can get this started for next saturday?
What is needed:
1) Buy-in amount - how much to get in on the action? The money is kept by each alliance until the winner is determined, just to make sure no one claims this is a scam.
2) Start and end locations - stations, moons, planets, or star locations. I think it would be best if it was planets or moons, so that quick docking wouldn't be a problem. They should be a good 30-40 jumps in distance, starting either in empire space or ending there, for the sole reason that it may allow others who don't frequently venture out into 0.0 space to see some of it.
3) Container creation for each team - we need volunteers to buy 5 giant secure cans and 15 trade goods, 3 trade items per container for verification purposes. At the time of judging, the three items and the password to the cans are given out so that each alliances containers can be verified as the original ones. If anyone needs more information on how this would work, let me know.
I'll offer up 250k ISK for the pot right now, yes, I know it isn't much, but if 50 of us put in that much, that's already 12.5 million.
BTW, I have some good ideas now for RP reasons for the event, but the starting and ending locations would have to be solidified to make sure it was realistic.

Also, could anyone offer up some good contacts in reguards to those who would be able to speak for their respective alliances? Or better, direct those leaders to take a look at this idea please? Thanks in advance.

Now that is all to complicated. Why not organize something like: LAST MAN STANDING event? Each alliance sends a group of 3 fighters, they all meet in one system and kill each other until there is only one alliance left? That should not be that hard. That way noone can cheat. Everything is allowed and survivors win.

Simple Fausto, because we already have plenty small scale battles. Something like this will encourage large tactical planning and action with large forces. If all we do is fight little 10 on 10 battles or camp gates/stations/jumpins all the time, then this game will get boring quick.

Well, Homo. Some n00b could outsmart you by setting your personal standing to +20. No warning bell then :P

Just in short.. your proposing that each alliance gets a can or cans, and then fights the other alliances over their cans, so that at the end of the event, the cans can be exchanged for money....?

Not really exchanged, rather, the winner of the event is the one alliance who manages to get the most of the cans to thier base or end zone. Winner take all kinda thing.

Um, you are aware that secure cargo container's passwords are only effective when the can is anchored in space, right?
I.e.: Can is anchored in space, try to pick it up, can't, it's anchored. Try to unachor.. can't asks for password.
Can is unachored in space... try to pick it up, no problem. Want to open it and look at the contents? No problem.
Kind of a major flaw in your plan there, Wren.

Alright, then let's think of a solution.

how about a corpse? You could take an alt kill it and use the corpse. Each alliance would have take a corpse from a corp inside the alliance.
Dunno if the corps vanish after two hours, that would be the only problem I can find :)

It will be a long time before people in eve realize:
When 5 people camp a station, or gate, and keep 5 enemies from leaving the station, entering the station, or leaving the system, their goal is achieved.
Telling the 5 campers that they are wasting their time, is like admittion of defeat. They aren't wasting their time, they are wasting yours.
its so beautyful that im getting tears in my eyes cause that right there is what i live for ruining pirates game experience
