alliance tournament as a recruiting event?
The only thing I'm wondering about this is well not the only thing but...
It seems the Factions are recruiting now instead of just the corps agents to do thier dirty work?
Hmmmm...
What exactly is going on here? I mean I'd like to know why Factions need us pod pilots to do these particular missions and will Factions be asking for ALL of us pod pilots help in some missions in the future?

Greetings once again, kessah. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the interview. Clarity says she'll be watching your matches with interest.
If you have a logo available, by all means pass it on to us ([email protected]) and we'd love to make the appropriate changes. The same goes for any of you without one listed above, who would prefer something less generic.
Thanks to the rest of you for the feedback and support.
And fresh off the networks we have...
News from the Caldari State about a scientist claiming to have predicted the tournament outcome based on some rather interesting data.
We've also received reports of a huge booster haul being interdicted by Federation Customs, confirmed by Serpentis to be a delivery to an unknown team.
Also we have the next installment in the "Following The Crew" series; reporter Caleb Kang takes a look at the preparations being made.
Lastly, and admittedly my favorite as a Caldari, some coverage on the betting this time around!
Stay tuned for more updates as news breaks - no doubt there's plenty more news to come.

Can i change our write-up
It's sort of *** with a capital G.
It didn't even mention team cool or our god-like abilities.
Plus it's out of date,
x13 are now bob-pets,
Cosmic Fusion remain (and another corp as they refuse to leave and due to a fault we can't get executor).
If you convo me i'll give you new answers, which meet expectations.

Kessah: We didnÆt receive any logos, as far as IÆm aware. You may want to re-send them. The address once again is [email protected]. If you want to cover your bases, you can also evemail me a link personally or use the GalNet submission page. Sorry about the trouble.
MotherMoon: Thanks for the suggestion; itÆs a good one and certainly worth consideration for next year. GalNet has its limitations, as poor DFox and Ramadas discovered. IÆd love to see such a thing too, so hopefully we can improve even further next year around and use something like that. IÆll make sure the idea is raised.
Ovek: WeÆd love to hear back from you. It seems things have been changing fast this year and news gets old very quickly. My suggestion would be that you use the links I provided to kessah above, this is probably the best way to get information to us quickly. When you have some time, send us any details you think important and weÆll have the article edited accordingly. IÆll be trying to get in touch with you for a proper interview regardless, but we may not both be around in-capsule at the same time.
As for how to enable pictures on GalNet, there is a small box labeled ôdisplay imagesö at the top left of your console, just under where you sign in. Check that and you should see everything. IÆd show a picture to illustrate where it can be found but that would be cruel, wouldnÆt it?
Two new installments in the competitor introductions series:
Miguel Ramirez sits down with UshraÆKhan executor Karn Mithralia and discusses their battles to come. Also included is a brief profile on KIA Alliance, whom UÆK will be facing in the initial matches.
Magnus Balteus takes a look at the Caldari loyalists of The Fourth District, as well as Syndicate residents Notoriety Alliance.
Stay tuned for more information. With the tournament less than a day away now, thereÆs more to come as Match Day Coverage begins.

Would help if the person designing the graphics in this thread understood the importance of contrast - white text on a light grey background makes it hard to read.

Alright, alright...I admit it. That useless ex-broker of mine bought a couple hundred mil shares in that Lai Dai "CyberOptical Repairs" IPO a few months back. You think CONCORD pay us well? A girl's gotta recoup her losses somehow and I'm not to keen on doing it the "Gallente" way...if you catch my drift.
I don't want those CONCORD bureaucrats giving me any more hassles so I'll have a word with our graphics team.
Tsuki lowers her voice. "Eventually..."

Quote:
Hydra Alliance: | Raven | 2 Myrmidons | Hurricane | 2 Blackbirds
Synchr0nicity: 5 Ishtars | 5 Griffins
The two Blackbirds from Synchronicity were primaried from the beginning by the Hydra team and were mauled under a withering swarm of drones. Synchronicity returned fire, trying to eliminate the Griffon ECM support of Hydra, but by the time they had eliminated them, they had lost their Hurricane, leaving them with only a Raven and a pair of Myrmidons. This handful of heavy ships could not hold out against the drone swarm and remote repair logistics strength of the five Hydra Ishtars, giving Hydra a strong win to start off the tourney.
So Hydra had the Ishtars and the other team had the Raven etc. correct?
