I'd still like to see an alliance power rating...like you have in sports
combine value, give it a #, take score, give it a # = the alliance power rating...base rankings on that
let's say alliance x has a score of 150 mil and a value of oh I don't know... 90 mil = power rating of 240 million
could actually do this if both numbers are tracked and it would be a true measure of alliance success...... This would allow alliances to work however they like
another thought is, have level 1 alliances, and level 2 alliances and level 3 alliances. (they could have to meet certain guidelines to be eligible to play in a particular division) make them declare their division before the round starts. this would add some fun for the smaller alliances. keep their rankings seperate, seperate levels of fight etc. (could put a committee together to coordinate it, and make fair decisions on what alliance belongs where etc. like exi for example, or 1up couldn't say "we will play in division 2" etc)
