top alliances should get priority over these crappy ones in empire that nobody has heard of
Our "crappy" empire alliance certainly hopes we draw your "top" alliance:
Open mouth and insert foot.
Another 'Crappy' empire alliance ringing in.
Also if the tourney's only pulled from previous tournament brackets, than no new alliances would get in. No I totally agree with many people about the small alliances that dont show for matches, or field comedy setups. Like that guy I think it was AT IV that was piloting 4 characters trying to use a disco phoon to pop incoming missiles or something or rather.
Anyway the point is, there will never be a perfect system, are there some decent suggestions here yes. Are there some ridiculous ones, most definitely. The tournament has a long history of underdogs coming out of no where and toppling a running favorite. AT V saw a lot of this particularly, Noteriety, The Kadeshi, Cry Havoc, and some others.
The question comes down to, how do you judge a tournament team? Cry Havoc created their alliance shortly before signups for AT V and had an awesome showing climbing to the Semi-Finals. They held no space, had not outposts, operated out of empire at the time. Yet they had every right to be there in my opinion. So for all the fanboys out there *****ing about not getting in...
Sorry, yes system is flawed, unlike AT V there was ample notice of who what when and how signups were going to take place. Those genuinely interested made the necessary preparations to ensure their Alliance was in the tournament.
Anyone who said, it's alright I'll just signup when I get the chance... took the risk of not making it in the list. 64 slots, hundreds of posts in the rules/signups/AT VI stickied threads, and people are shocked that the signups were filled in less than a couple hours? Pay attention to what was going on, take the necessary steps if it's important to you, and guess what you get a slot. I did.

Another "Crappy" alliance here.
Mcfly hit the nail on the head, CryHavoc are a great example, I really hope we can do half as well as they did. (mistress suffering we are coming for you  )
We as an alliance never want to control space, hold outposts, take part in the blob fest that is 0.0 or spam CAOD. Does that mean we do not deserve a place in the tourney even though I took a day off work to enter us?
/me preps his disco phoon and 4 accounts, bugger i only have 3 monitors
