Happy Scrappy New Year dear players.
ItÆs time formally submit the rules for the next Alliance Tournament. After reviewing the rules from the last tournament, we have made some point adjustments and clarifications. The rules are quite similar to last yearÆs tournament as they worked out pretty well for the most part.
The most striking change is disallowing pirate implant sets. This will negate the huge advantage some high grade sets were providing.
Faction battleships have been reduced in price by 5 points. We should now see more faction battleships as well as tech two battleships.
The TotalHellDeath bonus has changed; or rather the requirements have changed, making it harder to get this bonus.
Maximum warp in distance has been shortened to 50km.
Apart from other points adjustments these are the changes that have been made. I hereby submit the 5th Alliance Tournament rules for your review.

Questions:
1) How do we sign up? How do we provide the 1B ISK entry fee?
2) When do the elimination rounds start (approximate timeframe - e.g., "early March")? When will the actual schedule be posted, relative to the start of the elimination rounds (e.g., "two weeks before the start of the tournament")?
3) What are the prizes? Is there only a prize for the winner, or intermediate prizes as well (e.g., for going on to the elimination rounds, for getting to the semifinals, whatever)?
By the way, as a comment to the person thinking about Golems... Look at their sensor strength, and remember that they are not intended as PvP ships.
Sign up procedure, prizes and such have not been announced just yet, but are not far off. Keep an eye on the news and on this forum for more info regarding them.
As per the dev blog here, the dates at this point are the first 2 weekends in March (starting 29th Feb). In past tournaments the final day has been the day of the elimination rounds, and this tournament is not likely to change from that.
Hope that helps 
We are creating the signup page. We will try to have the system deduct the signup fee from the executor when he signs up. Hopefully the signup page will be up before the end of next week.
Regarding implants; Only faction implant sets are disallowed. Normal implants, cosmos, hardwiring and mindlinks are totally allowed.

There is some confusion in my alliance about what you mean when you say team captains must be pre announced.
Am I right in thinking that the captain must be announced before the torunament and that this captain must be present at every fight?
basically we need a point of contact. ideally the same person all through the tournament, but i know thats not always possible. i will poke Nova on msn to reply to the thread about this.
Sharkbait is right. The captain is our contact to the team. If it absolutely essential, a team may announce a new captain and needs to do so 24 hours in advance, at least.
