So.. Out of curiosity. Who actually got into the tournament this year around? I know we are closing in on everyone already applied and paid for so would be fun to know who we'll be fighting against come the tournament 
My corp was in ATTC last year (we pretty much loaned the alliancename) but this year around we've got a alliance of our own named The Fourth District.
Hopefully we'll end up in the same group as our archenemies Star Fraction.

Wow, guess I'll have to work on my arbitrator counter, as I heard you've got no faction ships left to lose

It's a list that's as notable for the absences as for the people in it.
I think that this could be a very open tournament.
Good luck to everyone.

Yep should be interesting again. But The Five are in so BOB is participating.
Interesting to see Tri in this time. I'm looking forward to see them fight.
Ah well I'm looking forward to 2 weekends of stress,adrenalin and sleep deprivation. I guess most of the pilots who are just watching have no idea how much work is to be done for the teams.
Good Luck to all teams!
edit: No factions ships left to lose? What happened to the impgeddon?

Um.. i would like to see us in that list. Dunno how official it is, but i didnt even know the registrations are open and so were quite a few of my mates.
My word: don't count HUN out of this yet. We are not planning on just handing that cup over without a fight.

If you wish to compete in the tournament - all is not lost! Sometimes alliances pull out, and we will be making a list of reserves that we may contact in the case of a withdrawal. If you want this to be you - please have your Alliance Executor contact GM Nova via EVE Mail as soon as possible.

The cup these guys wanna win is in our corp hangar wiseguy, its not like we are just random alliance #99253 wishing to join the tournament. So get your facts straight before posting generic quotes and wiseness. Thanks.
As for how this could have happened, i dont care. My priority right now is to get the situation fixed.

I can't say I'm impressed.
As has been said elsewhere, the fact that a 1 man alliance has as much chance of getting in as a 2000 man alliance (or the previous reigning champions) means that signups are broken.
In a world with 300 (or so) equal contenders for 40 spots, you MUST give priority to alliances with respected teams.
The top 16 placers from the past tournament should get automatic right of refusal for entry into the tournament.
I don't want to see a tournament where 20 teams from unknown alliances get completely dominated by the other 20 teams from strong PvP alliances whose executors happen to be awake.
Please reconsider, CCP Mindstar & co.

Excuse me, but HUN Reloaded DID win the championship last year, and did so by beating much more respected alliances then themselves, despite having only 70 or so members. I fail to see how giving a chance to smaller alliances is 'broken'. On the other hand, leaving out the former champions, and thus refusing to give them a chance to defend their title does seem a bit broken. |

You're right of course. That's why only the top 16 should get in for free if they want. After all, there are still 24 other spots.

They should rename the tournament
"A scattered collection of folks all over eve who happen to be awake in very short time window, and are not involved majorly in great political landscape/wars in new eden so ccp can not be held accountable on any bias and thus avoid any possibility of negative publicy, tournament"
In short
C4ntB34rs 3d tournament.

Indeed yes. And i'm not arguing with this one.
BUT the thing is they failed to apply. Not like the other 40 alliance.
(They had 8 days to think about it and 3 days to apply)
And if you check the rules carefully:
"Alliances will be allowed entry on a first-come first-serve basis."
And it's not saying anything about granting the former champion a spot.
So i think HUN simply forgot to read the rules and the post related to the application so it's definately not CCP's fault that they're not on the list...

Previous tournament winners and quarter finalists should have been notified in advance of this first come first serve signup if they were not. The tournament simply won't be the same without some of the biggest players and especially the previous tournament winners BoB and HUN.

Well thats a nice start of the tournament -_-
You should really rethink you sign-up method, the tournament just lost a lot of it's appeal this way.
People watch the tournament not because they want to see random-dude-a fight against random-dude-b, they watch because they want the big and known alliances put their name and reputation on the line and dig it out against each other in straight up pvp.

With no more implants allowed, you should have expected to see alot more applicants.
Besides if people wanted to partecipate that badly maybe they should have bothered reading the sticky that was in this forum for over a week before the sign up was opened =o
