can we please scrap this tournament as it is only for the big ruby bullies who send nearly 2k to 5k of attackers and all demons and horrors 
if they want this then lets have a level playing field so all benefit from it not the ruby players all the time Why do they always get the good rewards it always seems to be the big top 20 alliances who bully everyone as you cannot hit them back as they have all the resources

need this stopped please Sean

Congratulations to top ten En1 alliances great work way to go nice to see you are still take fairplay seriously.  Seriously just retire the tournament to the same space currently inhabited by the Alchemist or deal with the multi's, shells, rented accounts and password sharers we pretty clearly haven't the tools to do it ourselves anymore.  Black Friday seems appropriate not sure why anyone would continue to pay for cheats in top alliances to succeed.  No way players in lower alliances should being rewarding you after this latest debacle those who are left if any.

Running Foreign Invasion after Alliance Tournament is just plain daft unless of course you are in a top alliance who we now avoid hitting because we would be rewarding for playing outside of the rules.  Close those alliances down we have a game to play again they are past saving.

Taking a break from breaking the rules, time out between suspensions or bored with taking your allies RV's?  Sneaking on here whilst the big boys in your alliance are out?  Lets be honest you don't really have anything to contribute to the game and as usual what you are saying is nothing other than empty threats, your account might be strong but you are one of the weakest players En1.  What is your legacy going to be ... empty achievements.  Maybe talk to Phil he I'm sure would be happy to explain how real players play the game.  Your account is really a modern day timeshare isn't it, they always were expensive mistakes something the majority of the server is looking forward to you learning Multi.  We all know now that the only reason you are sat where you are is because you broke the rules and inherited and share a nuclear account, you aren't good enough and you'll never be good enough to play with the big boys.

wow,

fair play rules are made up, they are not real.  Just accept that and move the fk on.  You don't have to have a break, activity always wins....  cash helps but activity so much more valuable.

Fair point in terms of the fairplay rules.  The problem we are seeking to resolve is breaches of the terms and conditions of the game the contract we all sign up to with GGE when we enter the game.  When players or individual alliances choose to breach those, to ignore a binding contract they put themselves at risk and there is a financial cost for all players when those rules are breached.  Multi Accounts, Shell Accounts, Rented Accounts stem the development of players of alliances they reduce the value of honest players investment in their account, reduce their effectiveness in game and over time decrease the amount they choose to invest in the game, less money for GGE equals less development of the game.  No matter how active you are in En1 how developed your account we cannot currently compensate or work round the impact of these breaches.  Accounts built through 9 months plus exploitation of the resource glitch cannot be hauled in anytime soon and that unfairly obtained advantage allows them to get stronger at our expense meaning if we invest and develop our accounts we don't get the benefit they simply continue to take from us what they haven't earned.  We can't win nobilities, events, wars it is a fundamental problem and after probably £20,000 plus investment in my account and five years investment why on earth would any player accept it or encourage it.  I hope it is different on Au1 but maybe next time you finish second to a guy after two days of activity and hundreds of dollars spent trying to be top you might want to consider whether you would be prepared to accept it if you discovered you weren't facing one account but one played by a tag team of players.  The only way to stop this type of thread is to stop the cheating.  I don't think asking players to play within the rules of the game  is that unreasonable do you, otherwise is there really a game to play or are you not just paying another form of tax.

As I've said before your account should have been closed.  I have no intention of wasting time or effort on you.  Frankly there are better players who don't need to step outside of the rules to succeed who represent a real challenge.  You broke the rules as far as I'm concerned nobody should be bothering with you.  The original player represented a challenge your just a cheap imitation I prefer to deal in originals.

The alliance tourney benefits 20 with the feathers-

I dont agree with you batten-toes a phenemonal player and has for sure moved to an even better player this last year-

Weak words from an old crow

[4627655] Batten (GB1) [GB1] :: Dec. 5, 2016, 10:32 p.m.
I'd say in terms of the genus Corvus I'm more a rook - they tend to be Western Europe - I tend to play straight, unlike Toe and yourself who seem to struggle with where the lines are.  The Crow in Australian Aboriginal Mythology is a trickster, cultural hero and ancestral being, he stole fire and brought enlightenment to mankind so I can understand why you might feel there are parallels and it's pleasing to see that you recognise the value of my contribution.  The thing about crows is that they are always there still standing at the end of every battle picking over the spoils having allowed the "heroes" to enjoy the glory of loss, whilst they simply do what is necessary to survive.  Crows are great in a storm, they are perching birds and even in high winds they can grip on and don't let go even when conditions are adverse so in that regard again I guess we would have that in common;)  I can certainly see a storm coming lets hope you have taken precautions.  

I waited for Toe when I came out of protection strangely enough no attack though he certainly managed to work out when I wasn't on and managed to hit me then.  Presumably that has something to do with the new members we acquired just before which of course was I'm sure just a coincidence.   Would have been nice to have had an opportunity to have defended but then you looters don't really like PVP do you or indeed one v one since I copped two attacks from level 800 accounts last time at a point when again - no big surprise here - I wasn't on.  One of the accounts was another level 800 so I just presumed Toe used that account for a bit of variety as we know one account just isn't enough for most of you.  Always tricky to work out who is playing the Toe account anyway I'm sure even you must find it hard to keep up the original player, Hakhat or whoever happens to be on at that point of time and at a lose end, so hard to actually work out whose ability you are asking us to assess.  I was particularly impressed with the 24 sabotages no less, across different realms clearly a lot of tactical planning and strategy went into that top class effort;)  They were very pretty commanders but to be honest a player with a day's experience given that calibre of firepower would be expected to win it isn't an achievement.  The guys who were lower than me and who took me out with weaker commanders are the one's that I'm always impressed by.  Wearing the Emperor's clothes doesn't make you an Emperor, no more than inheriting an account makes you the equal of the person who built it, been there done that found it unrewarding.  I'm all for players having an opportunity to learn and interesting to study your set up useful ammunition when we seek to get the game rebalanced.  I'd say getting a few resources and no glory and wasting all that travel time when you could have been attacking a challenging opponent wasn't a good day at the office.  Part of the fun of playing the game is not knowing the outcome I struggle to understand what it is that you guys are so scared of, that you are so desperate to control the result.  There are plenty of better players I've played with and against in my view, given the account has been around since I started the game if he's only been playing for a year - then apart from not being the original player sure he's grateful for you dropping him in it there - then he probably has a way to go.  I'd say 3 hits and 24 sabotages with the vast majority of my soldiers, my honour and my resources left wasn't such a bad result.  Whereas what did Toe achieve really accept to prove that he can be provoked and responded outside the rules reinforcing all the concerns players have expressed about him and his alliance.  

You forgive me I need to fly off to watch Hitchcock's Birds maybe get some ideas.  Birds are always more dangerous when they flock together to fend off predators and of course on the battlefield when warriors show weakness;)

I activated Pro mode as soon as i saw it was tourney - didn't want to give any glory to the cheaters!

Even after a good two months off the forums , things still never change.

This event perked up my game play again so it should not be removed however FI straight after it was a little much.
Its like finishing off a nice Christmas dinner with a Microwave meal.

The alliance I am in played well within the fair play rules and managed a decent score. 
Its a shame others cant - however many of those who break fair play break it no matter what event is running. 

Not enough hugs ...

Sadly people its a "win at all costs" 
GGe will not remove multis,shells,alts ....seriously whats in it for them ?
The alliance tourney is  gges biggest  "cash cow "  that's why it ran 7 straight days last time .
also fc and bcs are just a npc clone of it .
so all our screams for fair play and banning multis , really fall on deaf ears .
We are but pets in gges zoo . all of us from Negan to the lowest , we provide entertainment and financial security to the makers .
This game promotes anarchy and chaos, because that's what pays .
Do I agree with it ...No ..
So lets not waste our times going down that deadend street of banning multis and fair play .  Because it aint gonna happen .
We ARE the entertainment here .
think outside the box .
P.S.  a comment very much similar to this I posted yesterday ( was not in this thread) Gge removed it within 5 minutes of posting . it was the first time I was censored , probably wont be the last :)
