These prizes will motivate teams and give them a common goal...

People will take risks if there is a sufficient reward...

As it stands, someone from the corporation "The Priory" told me they did the math and if you manage to win the entire tourney, each member stands to profit 700 mil isk... In previous tournaments, that wouldn't cover one ship or even a single pimp module.

I realize the Dev's are busy, but the Alliance tourney is an excellent chance for you to reward the players that will invest ALOT of hard work and energy into their teams.

Sure a job well done medal and a statue are nice (I guess), but it really doesn't appeal to most people. Trust your customers and consider giving them what they want...

Please do not take this as criticism, I only want to make the tournament better.

And for the whiners who say "omg a few unique ships that are marginally better (or not) than its T2 counterpart will imbalance the entire game!" its a specious argument, a few new toys would create a buzz around the tourney and get alot of people interested while having insignificant effects on the overall game/balance issues.

I offer my services to any one alliance that would like to use my skills in competing in this years event. Ive fought in the tournament for the past two years, representing The Red Skull and Blood Blind.

Seeing how the rules are this year, i believe i could offer any team my experience and fighting skill in this event, representing your Alliance

This would unfortunetly be only for the duration of the tournament as i have no loyalty to any alliances, but i do offer my loyalty, Discretion and sincerity during the tournaments duration.

If you get into the final 64 and may be interested in what i propose, head me up in game and we can talk.

Thankyou.

Hi guys

A minor problem has closed signups earlier than intended.

We are fixing this as soon as humanly possible.

Please stand by your signup buttons and I will post again before we fix the problem to give everyone a fair chance of being on the button.

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.

A small group of players want to enter into the tournament as a group, Currently none of us are in a alliance, since where all in different corps, but I have access to use one for the tournament.

My question is, can I apply under my corporation for the signups pay the 500mil entry fee and If where drawn. The players would join the alliance.

Only reason where joining the alliance is for the Tournament. In game none of us really need to be in a alliance.

Sorry if its a silly question but this is something we believe where good at (small pvp warfare) and want a crack at it :)

Thanks ...

In the Sixth Alliance Tournament there will be 64 slots available for alliances to compete. Some of the slots will be reserved for alliances, based on the following:

Fifth Alliance Tournament finalists - 8 slots. The top 8 teams from the fifth tournament will be automatically granted entry, if they apply.
Fourth Alliance Tournament finalists - 4 slots. The top 4 teams from the fourth tournament will automatically be granted entry, if they apply.
Faction Militias - 4 slots. The 4 factional warfare militias are automatically entered. See below for how this will work.
Remaining slots ( 48 ). The first 48 alliances to sign up will be granted entry, providing they subsequently follow the entry rules.

Entry rules

1. ALL alliances (including those with automatic entry) must apply using the signup page. This page will be available from downtime on Friday, 19th December. Only the CEO of the Executor Corporation of the alliance may apply. This is non-negotiable.


1.1 At this time, a team captain must be nominated. All further correspondence will be to the team captain only.
1.2 At any time, the team captain may be changed by either the alliance executor CEO or the current team captain.
1.3 Requests from the Alliance Executor take precedence over the team captains.


2. Within 24 hours of signing up, the Executor must deposit 500 million ISK into the wallet of "CCP Mindstar", with the alliance name as the description of the transfer. Failure to do this will void entry.


2.1 If the money is paid late, the time the money was paid into the wallet of CCP Mindstar will be used as the entry time, for the purposes of "first come, first served" entry.
2.2 All deposits will be refunded following the conclusion of the tournament. Deposits will not be refunded if a team fails to show up for any match, or is otherwise disqualified.

Confirmation & Contact Instructions

An EVE Mail will be sent out to each team captain confirming entry as soon as the above conditions have been verified. There may be up to a 48 hour delay on this once the signup deposit has been paid.
The final tournament teams will be confirmed on the 12th January.
The draw will take place shortly after confirmation, with the schedule for Qualifying Round 1 being placed on the website by Friday 16th January.
All correspondence should be sent via EVE Mail to CCP Mindstar.

Factional Warfare Militias

The leadership of all 4 factions are all keen to show their stuff in this tournament. As such, the militias will be holding a competition of sorts prior to the tournament to decide who will champion their push for glory! This will be done as follows:

During the signup period (Downtime 19th Dec until downtime 9th January), we will be monitoring the pilots who obtain the most capture points by capturing or defending dungeons within Factional Warfare.
Following downtime on the 9th January, the top 3 pilots by capture points will be announced on the forums, and notified by eve mail.
These 3 pilots must work together to nominate one team captain for their militia.


The team captain does not have to be one of these 3 members.
The nomination must be presented by at least 2 of the 3 to CCP Mindstar before downtime on the 14th January.
If a majority cannot be reached, the final decision will be made by the top pilot by capture points.
If one or more of the top 3 prove to be unreachable or unresponsive via EVE Mail, the next highest pilot(s) by capture points will be contacted & announced.

Qualifying rounds

The aim of the qualifying rounds is to quickly and fairly cut 64 alliances down to 32 alliances, while still allowing teams a reasonable chance of coming back from a failure. As such, a slightly modified version of a Swiss System tournament will be used. It is not anticipated that qualifying will be a walk-through for any team.

Round 1 (...Fight! )

64 Alliances will be drawn from the ceremonial CCP Tinfoil Hat at random. Based on this, they will be assigned the numbers 1 - 64. This random order decides who fights whom on the first weekend - 1 fights 2, 3 fights 4 and so on.

Teams will then be ranked by their match result (Win or Loss), and then by kill points (see points section).

Round 2

Teams fight in order of rank - 1v2, 3v4 and so on.

Results

Teams are ranked again by match results (Wins & Losses). 16 teams are on 2 wins, 16 teams are on 0 wins, 32 teams are on 1 win / 1 loss. The Top 16 are through, the bottom 16 are cut.

The middle 32 teams are sorted by points - the top 16 are through, the bottom 16 are cut. This leaves us with a total of 32 teams in the final.

Finals

The 32 teams are ranked according to match results and then points scored. Using these rankings as a base, the teams are seeded into a 32 way single elimination. Seeding will be used so that the highest ranked teams are on opposite sides of the elimination tree. It is entirely possible that teams who have fought each other in qualifying may meet again before the final.

A 32 way elimination is then played out over the two days. 16 matches on Day 1 and the remaining matches on Day 2. We end up with a winner, and there is much excitement and rejoicing!

Additional Notes

Points System

As with previous tournaments, teams will be awarded points based on the value of ships killed in each match - regardless of win or loss. The team that wins a match will be awarded a 25% bonus to points scored. The points values for each ship will be available in the rules thread.

Draws

For the purposes of this tournament, a drawn match is considered a loss for both teams involved. It will also hereby be known as a fail.

Rankings

If at any point, teams are level in Win/Loss and also level in points scored, the following will be used in order to resolve this.

1. If the teams disputing rank have fought each other at any point, the winner is higher.
2. The current ranking (W/L, then points) of the last team that you defeated. Higher is better.
3. The current ranking of the last team that defeated you. Again, higher is better.

1. This is a two stage tournament, with 64 alliances allowed to enter.
2. There will be two qualifying rounds and then finals.
3. The top 32 teams by Win/Loss and points scored advance to the elimination rounds.
4. A pilot cannot compete on behalf of more than one alliance at a time.
5. All competing pilots must be members of the alliance they are competing at the time they fight.

See here for full format details.

Match Rules

1. Alliances can field up to ten pilots on the battlefield. The team captain has to be announced beforehand. Any alliance member can fight at any time.

2. Fights are limited to 15 minutes in the first round. After that the fight will be stopped and whichever alliance has destroyed ships with a higher number of total point worth will be declared winner. See, "Winning a match" for more details.

3. In the elimination rounds, fights will be stopped after 20 minutes if both teams still have ships on the battlefield. The winners will be declared based on the following:
* 3.1. The team with the higher number of total point worth of opponents ships destroyed, wins.
* 3.2. If both teams have destroyed equal amounts total point worth, the team which advanced from the brackets with a higher ranking will advance.

4. Intentional podkilling is NOT allowed. Accidental podkills will be reimbursed and no penalties incurred.

Entry fee

Entry fee is 500 Million ISK. The fee is returned once the qualifying stage is finished and the team has participated in all of its scheduled fights.

Winning a match

1. In each match, teams get points for killing ships, based on their value in the rules.
2. The more ships you kill, the more points you get, with winner of a fight decided by who kills the most points.
3. For winning a fight, a team will receive a 25% bonus to the points they score.

Penalties
All penalties are incurred at the tournament organizer's discretion. Decisions are final.
1. A player found breaking any of the above rules can be penalized in various degrees, depending on the severity of their offence.
2. Penalties will be in the form of point deductions. In elimination rounds, the penalty will be in the form of healing the offending ship(s) shield / armor / hull / capacitor to 50%, and then removing them from the fight for subsequent offences
3. A player or team can be banned from competing for one or more matches.
4. A player or alliance can be banned from competing for the remainder of the tournament, and/or any future tournaments.
