Safety in Numbers
Not a new concept...
New player? New alliance?
Its a total arse getting going isnt it? You hear that this game is the dog's bollocks, sign up, and get shit all over. Well thats close to the dog's bollocks but, sadly, closer to the tail.
Well, how about this....
Are you a new player? Want to know how to play PA? Not easy to either learn or get ahead when you dont have a decent alliance or a decent gal. Would you like to join an alliance that is organised and working exactly like one of big alliances? Where the ethos is all about defending and attacking? Where there is no demand that you are the best, just that you are willing to learn and give everything to people that will give it back to you? Safety in Numbers is for you....*
Are you a new alliance (or a prospective HC of a new alliance)? Ok so you have a couple of friends that are up for giving it a go, but its not easy to recruit new members. Yeah there are things about being a new alliance which makes it hard to recruit new members, for example you only have 12 members (lets be honest, if you were wanting to join an alliance, which would you choose? one with 12 members or one with 80) and you would like advice and support in your new endeavour... SiN offers new alliances this: that your alliance is supported with our tools and our experience, we will have new players that will be supported by everybody in SiN, at the end of it all, when these embrionic alliances wish to leave they will do so with out best wishes. Above all you will learn how to work (not theory but practice) like a successful alliance.**
What SiN offers is this...
Advice and training and what we all need best when we come under fire... Safety in Numbers.
Combined defence and the whole feel of a 'big time' alliance.
Nightly attacks, either with the subscribing alliances or with our own attack groups...
There is the Carrot, now here is the Stick:
If you want all these thing you have to understand that there is one constant when it comes to the community play that makes Planetarion as good as it is, and that is the zero sum equation. You get nothing if you put nothing in, what you put in you get back, with interest.
New players who are interested in this are welcome, however, there will be quality controll. This means players who dont defend, dont join in, show no interest, will get kicked...
Our public room is #SiN
*Safety in Numbers is NOT for def leaches. You must have a netgamers account. There is a trial period of 7 days, if after 7 days you are game enough AND have decided to pay for an account your membership is guarenteed. No spies please.
**Subscribing new alliances will be subjected to particular rules, that they will nominate at least 1 member to work as Military officers (this is how you learn, by doing...). There are several other rules regarding poaching and participation that must be followed, pm me for details...
So there you have it, a boiling pot of new players and new alliances, and what SiN is all about is giving them the best training so that they can go forward from SiN and make a success of themselves....
Not a new idea...
p.s. Anybody who would like to help out with this are very welcome, just pm me.

Re: Safety in Numbers
The boy says it how it is!
1up wish you all the best and hope that people take real notice of a player as experienced and as team orientated as Zyth.
It has been my pleasure to be in several galaxies with Zyth through a number of rounds and other than a great Planetarion player he's a stand up guy.
I, personally, will do as much as I can to assist in what people should recognise as the future of Planetarion and something that will hopefully give the people who are historically at the bottom of the food chain a real fighting chance.

Re: Safety in Numbers
Great to see the formation of another brand new alliance and one that i hope will achieve all it has set out to! I wish you and SiN all the best in establishing yourselves as a positive and hungry alliance m8.
I'm sure with your old-grey hairy-chin, genuine attitude and wise experience at PA (is there a Role in an alliance you haven't done?;P), you can with the right team, make a solid impact on PA for R12.
If you finish above HR i will be seriously p1ssed off though;P

Re: Safety in Numbers
As has been mentioned in the Tide thread, SiN and Tides will be working together in the future as our ideals are broadly similar.
I would like to thank everyone who is showing us support \o/ you guys rock!
As Peter Kay said "It's the future!"

Re: Safety in Numbers
Yes we have gathered quite a lot of support so far. Already have a veteran staff for next round to help out new players. As Tides and SiN have very similar goals we decided to do a little merge. We hope this can benefit all players in the planetarion universe.
Just so people know there is no limit and we are able to work with smaller alliances or justa group of friends that share a tag. If you are still in protection feel free to join #sin and talk to us. We try not to have any real limits besides activity. If you need help getting onto IRC then go to http://passport.planetarion.com/ment...e=general_mirc or just use the forum to send me a message.

Re: Safety in Numbers
Ok we have had a merge with illusion. We are continuing to look for more new people and alliances in the game that want to play. Applying rules are all the same as what Zyth said up top. Talk to us in #SiN if have any questions. One of the ops will be there hopefully.

Re: Safety in Numbers
Illusion is happy to join SiN! Everything is well organized and I like the strategy behind SiN: to give new players a change to learn how to play this game proper. Cheers mates

Re: Safety in Numbers
Must say that SiN has the potential of becoming a solid and reliable alliance in the future. I am confident they can create a good mix between experienced old-timers and ambitious and eager newbies. It's a very good thing for the game that people with experience actually have the guts to leave their comfy and well established strongholds to seek out new challenges and make a difference for the game. Wish there would be more people like that and the game would surely be a lot more interesting for everybody.

Re: Safety in Numbers
Ok we are getting ready for next round. If you wanna join now and get a taste for SiN you are welcome to. We will be back for another round with the same policies. Basically having a pnick and being active are the only requirements. If you need help to get on IRC then message me.
And we have our new forum up if anyone wants to visit.

My god... I need more sleep... I misread "pnick" for sth completely different.
And btw, good luck to you guys, I hope SiN comes good, more alliances (and in particular ones with new blood in) are what this game desperately needs.

Re: Safety in Numbers
We are still searching for new members and/or small alliances that would like to help us with the roiding mission every night, and if possible give defence when needed. If you are a small player you can also only send pods with some1 else 2 boost your score very easy.
If u want to join an alliance that has attacks every night and always gives enough defence, visit #sin on irc and talk to an OP or if they arent responding u can PM me.
