Eve-maps.com website now has two "All time" Alliance rankings:
- Rank of alliances by Outposts Built
- Rank of alliances by Outposts Conquered (excludes ones they built themselves)
This came about from an discussion last weekend about which alliance had built the most outposts, and well .. it just needed a definitive answer.
Hopefully this kills a few more CAOD arguments  |

Was it too hard to number things in some of of standard way?
1 2 3 4 6 7 9 11 15 16 20 25 28 31 41 60 85
Seriously what the hell. It looks like you just threw in a number every now and again

Thats for the places of which the alliances have the same number of outposts built/conquired ...
Yep. If 2 alliances are on equal 3rd place, the next alliance isn't in 4th place, it's in 5th place.

Ah, well what are the odds of using a symbol for that? So we can still have a nice number list instead of having to count towards the nearest one.
Odds are 100%.
I've added in the duplicate numbers |

Great job!
However this does not differentiate between outposts conquered and outposts "given" (rented) but it still gives us the bigger picture
Hmm .. that's a whole new bag of tricks to create. It's possible, with collusion from the alliance leader who is renting. Ie. They'd have to be willing to state that they are renting the outpost, and who they were renting it from.
The flaw being it's entirely optional as to whether or not it's displayed. Some alliances would chose to hide the fact they are renting, and other reveal they are renting, which would make it innaccurate.
The question then becomes;
- If it is inaccurate, is it still useful?
- Would alliances really show that they were renting?
The two of which make me think:
Since rentals are quite a common thing, is that a feature people would like to see introduced to the game in the contract system?
ie. Ability to establish contracts for rental of an outpost, moon, access for mining to space etc., and would that need to be shown on the overview in some way to the "landlord" alliance members?
If it is, post it up in the CSM forums!

I found the list of all outposts really useful because you could order by weeks and see what outposts have been taken before the sov changes show up necessarily on map.
Be cool if you could put that back in please :D Or maybe have a section "outpost ownership change" as well as sov change
It's back! as "All Outposts".

unless i'm clicking the wrong things, is there a way to make a pages that will display which outposts they've owned and when?
I will do it soon(tm) combined with some additional info on alliances, it's been on the backlog for about a year

There seem to be two tenth legions and two alliances that share the ticker, "RISE." Might want to fix that.
Cheers, probably CCP recycled an alliance ticker, or re-created an existing alliance (happens when people let them expire by accident or other weird stuff)

Why do alliances build so many outposts? Surely BOB cannot use 17 of them.
They must have a use for them, otherwise at 25bn ISK each, they'd be better off building more titans. |
