The Surprise Alliance of Round 14
I noticed the "Who will win round 14" thread and thought I would start one a bit different but yet similiar. Who do you think will be the alliance that surprises everyone in round 14. Who do you think will start round 14 as a virtual nobody and emerge a superpower. Your thoughts?

Re: The Surprise Alliance of Round 14
Hydra. They had big players, but a small membercount last round. If their recruitment tactics have worked, they might suprise a fair few people.

Re: The Surprise Alliance of Round 14
Im going Subh alliance i think. According to recruity thread, they have a decent member base already and experienced HCs/etc. Will be interesting to see how they do.

Re: The Surprise Alliance of Round 14
Is this supposed to include established alliances which have never held especially high ranks? Or just new ones?

Re: The Surprise Alliance of Round 14
I think he means established and new alliances. Hence 'virtual' nobodies... like Coven.

Re: The Surprise Alliance of Round 14
Maybe Unforgiven Sin, although we are fairly inexperienced but we made 23rd last round which was our second and as a new allaince with HC n00bs in charge was not bad (or at least we thought it wasn't). Maybe with a few more quality members and a bit of luck.
ps. of course i am biased as i am a HC there but hey

We get suprisingly little press on here, which doesn't bother me in the slightest. Our members are ready to come out firing in the new round, and we can be judged on the proper rankings rather than AD members' personal thoughts.

Re: The Surprise Alliance of Round 14
You think VGN dont get mentioned on here? you should try searching for referances to ROCK!
we're the kinda alliance that doesnt get noticed when we are here, but i feel if we stopped playing it would be more noticable...
i mean with VsN disbanded we're the only ones using pre-launch now

I was HC in G-II that round, along with Nick609 and Dukez etc
It was my first HC experience in an alliance with a decent to big membercount.

Re: The Surprise Alliance of Round 14
I honestly think that Angels will be the suprise alliance. Although they ended with top planet and #2 ally, they still have a lot to prove and I predict we wont see much from them at the start, however as the roun materialises they will make a suprise impact on the games mechanics.

hmmmm talk about blowing your own trumpet, funny noone else thinks that :P
i think f-crew could surprise a few people and APA also have a lot of respect from me i think both allies could create a potential upset for one or more of the elite allies.

Re: The Surprise Alliance of Round 14
I actually believe APA will surprise a little. Not as ending #1 ofc, but getting a decent position (for that alliance being) as #9 or #10. Reason? Kargool is a wizard with getting new and good members.

Re: The Surprise Alliance of Round 14
Well a thanks to Barney for showing some support Tbh the PA community in general dusnt seem to think F-Crew capable of anything much at all, hopefully we will prove them wrong this round.
APA will definately do well this round, they have been going from strength to strength since they started and will definately be contending inside the top 10

Re: The Surprise Alliance of Round 14
Its something we bring on ourselves Keg and I dont blame people for thinking that way. Those alliance above us have membership controls which see the type of players we are willing offer a home, rejected in a second. Even the majority of those below us would reject some if not most of the players we give a chance to. Our policy of wiping the slate clean for applicants and giving themselves the chance to improve and prove themselves means that really on paper we shouldnt do anything. Thankfully the policy on the whole pays off and while a small percentage fall by the wayside we manage to uncover our fair share of gems. The one problem with our policy is it always destroys our average score

Re: The Surprise Alliance of Round 14
Whoever of Hydra and Insomnia able to pull of a higher ranking will be without doubt one of the bigger suprises, I think they both have had their problems over this round, but still pulling off to do fairly well.
Both alliances seem to know their goal and have been actively working to achieve them, despite the problems they've had.
NewDawn has also been doing very good, despite having several players including HC going over to 1up pre round, and having problems with coord leak.
But they have and still are in a pretty comfy posistion, so it remains to see what they can hold up if one of the other major allies decides to hit them.
Think also ToF command should be given a :thumbsup: for their work, imho they have improved greatly from last round and despite being filled with spies I would still fear if they decided to target my gal ;]
