Edited by: Vaal Erit on 17/12/2008 22:21:28 I'm sure everyone wants to know.
What are the prizes for the alliance tournament?
Isn't it a bit strange not to announce them beforehand? I can't think of any tournament where the prizes are not announced before signups. This might discourage some alliances to participate and make pilots not really fly their best as they think there are no prizes. --

if any alliance need the value of the prizes to validate turning up, then they cant afford to be there,,
as far as im concerned its about the event,,bragging rights and the chance to say " if you look close you can see my ship pop in the background,," its about taking 10 thoraxs and shredding the other team in a total surprise to everyone, its about having a raven tank for so long that it becomes incredulouse ( yeah i cant spell) its about taking one of the most highly prizes faction ships into it and then losing it,,, and finally its about having the lil guys like me remember your name and what you did,,
the one thing i can say it isnt about is the isk,,,

Hopefully better than in recent years. Some brand new faction ships will go down well.

They're pretty much the same as before only with pilot licenses instead of loyalty points, value hasn't changed from previous tournaments really (except the ones with uniques, and well those were a bit over the top isk value wise)

I'd love to see more uniques but if neccessary connect them to the pilot in some way that they can't be sold of contracted or something... just trophy ships. That way you can negate the isk value of them, but still provide something special and unique. Tho free game time is always nice, I was of course hoping for more.

Well considering 1st place could of potentially made around 100 bill last time - I don't think that 60, 30 day GTC's come anywhere close

negative, LP converted to Snakes were very close if not over 100B for the last 2 tourneys.
these prizes are ****...but meh 100B isn't all that much these days anyway in the grand scheme of things to an alliance

Nope, ev0ke didn't spend them on making money, i think they kept them for themselves. Tri did buy all low-grade snakes and sold them all. However alot of the money was spent on getting teani a new nyx, after general dynasty etc destryoed tri. Which was quite annoying for the team members who put alot of effort in, but didn't get much reward..

It's not very far from 100bil (maybe 70 if you deduct the isk and the implants needed to exchange for LG snakes) Boink! |

I was at least hoping for a time travelling Berserker TP-900 that can reach the wrong target before it is even targeted. Oh wait, I already had one of those darn!

A lot of the big name alliances probably wont bother showing considering the prize spread.
I doubt Tyrrax even gets out of bed for less than 10bn.
Apart from the fame involved a win with benefits of the previous years could really boost confidence and strength in some of the very small alliances who come along for the fun of it.

Is this a nice way of saying you think the price is not so hot too?
I think its pretty obvious that no matter the price, people will compete. However, having a sexy price brings more interest and gets people talking, which is good for the game.
Also consider that this year there is 64 team the most ever, so logically you should have better price, no?
I also think super hot price will get the team to go over the top with expansive ships, maybe not in the qualifier but in the finals. An injection of 100 bil isk into EVE will not unbalance anything as the recent exploit was alot more.
I say add to the price 30 marauders for the first place team, 20 black ops for the second place team and 10 Hulk for the third place team.
