A note before i start. When I say "all time" I don't mean all the alliances that have ever existed. I will be ranking alliances that are currently in existence based on all time stats including the joltomac and swerve days. also as this was such a time consuming process I will only be ranking those alliances that have over 100 countries.
each clan will be ranked out of fifty; there will be 5 categories worth ten points each. The categories are: longevity, warring capabilities, netting capabilities, leadership skills, and size.
#1) TKO- Score: 43
Longevity Score: 9
TKO have been around for a very long time. Though they were a relatively smaller clan back in the old days of earth they have managed to remain a noteworthy clan size wise for a long time now.
Warring capability score: 6
Although TKO don't war very often, now or in the old days, they have on occasion proved that they can hold their own in a war if needed.
Netting capability score: 10
TKO are easily the best netting alliance in the game at this time, and not only that, they have always been a clan of extremely good netters.
Leadership skills score: 9
Ketchup is on of the best FA guys a clan could have and he has been able to ensure that TKO are able to net 95% of the time and warster also seems to be a wise leader.
Size score: 9
As stated before TKO have been one of the larger clans in most of ee's histry but in the swerve days they were small when compared to the size of some of the other clans back then. but they were still large enough later on in the omac days to recieve high marks in this category.
#2) NBK- Score: 42
Longevity Score: 10
NBK has been around pretty much since the begining of earth we have oficially carried the name NBK since late 99.
Warring capability score: 10
NBK receive top marks in this category because, pound for pound, we are one of the best warring alliances in ffa history.
Netting Capability score: 5
Although NBK has had some extremely good netters like k4f and bruek as members over the years, we have never been known for our netting abilities.
Leadership Skills: 7
This has always been somewhat of a problem for NBK. We do have an excellent core of members and leaders in NBK, and know the politics of the game, but our score is somewhat diminished because we always seem to have problems with activity. not so much now but we used to. also, with such an excellent core of leaders, there tends to be a lot of us. classic case of "too many chiefs, not enough indians".
Size score: 10
NBK has consistently been one of the largest alliances in ee as well as in the old days.
#3) PANLV- Score: 41
Longevity score: 10
PANLV have been around for a very long time, since the earliest days of FFA. They receive full marks in this category.
Warring capability score: 7
PANLV used to be one of the most feared clans in the game and can still kick some butt when they need to, however now they tend to be more of a netting clan.
Netting capability score: 9
As well as being a great war clan in the old days they were also an excellent netting clan and have had some of the best netters in the games history. and they still are one of the best netting clans in ffa.
Leadership skills: 8
Havoc and twain are some great leaders and they know how the game and it's polotics work.
Size: 7
PANLV used to be one of the largest alliances in FFA and still are today, however, they seem to be losing steam on that front in the last couple sets.
#4) IMP- Score: 32
Longevity score: 10
Another one of the clans that has been around since FFA's glory days.
Warring capability score: 7
IMP used to be among the best warring alliances in the game, although lately they have put up some less than stellar war performances.
Netting Capablity score: 4
not much to say here except that I think I can only remember one time that IMP actually netted, and unless I am mistaken they haven't netted once since the start of EE.
Leadership skill score: 5
The leaders that I can remember of IMP have all been relatively good though almost all of them have been lacking in the FA department which is why they reveived such low scores in this category.
Size score: 6
IMP had a huge number of countries in the old ffa though lately they seem to be struggling in this category.
As the rest of the alliances on the list have only been in existence in EE they only receive scores out of 25.
#5) FoCuS- Score 21
Longevity score: 5
although most of the players in focus have been around forever, focus is still technically a new clan. but they still get a decent score as they have been around since the beggining of EE's ffa.
Warring ability score: 5
Pound for pound one of the best warring clans in the game.
Netting capability score: 4
focus can also net with the best of them as they've shown many times.
Leadership skill score: 4
there are some great old time FFA leaders in this clan and they know the politics of this game as well as anyone.
Size score: 3
They seem to go for quality rather than quantity. nuff said.
#6) Semper Fi- Score: 18
Longevity score: 2
Again a lot of old time members but still a new clan even when compared to EE's age.
Warring capability score: 4
The last couple sets they have proved how good of killers they are. It will be intersting to see what they do on this front in the future.
Netting capabilty score: 3
I am really giving them the benifit of the doubt on this score as I know many of their members are excellent netters.
Leadership Skills score: 4
AV and Walding seem to be doing a really good job keeping their members in check and active. I also know that they both know the ins and outs of the game very well.
Size Score: 5
Their size the last couple sets speaks for its' self. It will be interesting to see if they can retain their members in the sets to come.
#7) CC- Score: 16
Longevity score: 4
Since they are actually a result of a merger i took into account the amount of time both doom and sof have been on this server.
Warring capabilty score: 4
they have proved time and again that they are a great war alliance and will probably continue to do so.
Netting capabilty score: 2
Pretty sure they haven't netted once in their history; but I've seen members of sof and doom net before and they could probably do it quite well if they needed to.
Leadership skills score: 3
The leaders in this clan are actually quite good but most seem to be dealing with busy real lifes and their clans leadership, last I heard was mostly on the shoulders of aponic although I don't know if that is still the case.
Size score: 3
when doom and sof originally merged they had a pretty large number of members though that seems to be lacking the last couple sets.
#8) Elysium- Score: 15
Longevity score: 2
Don't know what ties they have to the elysium that used to be on the alliance server but they are relativly new to ffa
Warring capability score: 1
they've been run off the server a couple times because of their inabilty or unwilingness to fight, their score reflects that.
Netting capability score: 5
They've put up some very nice netting numbers the last couple sets.
Leadership skills score: 3
The only one I know is thomas and I don't even know if he is still leading there but if he is he is a decent leader though as I've said before he can't seem to handle his alliance properly when FSd.
Size score: 3
They have been around 200 countries the last couple sets hopefully they can continue to grow.
Honorable mentions.
ESD: though they have always been a fairly small clan they have some really good netters there
XI: There is an excellent group of earthers in this clan, mostly the remnants of BSS. very good people and very good killers. *throws m&m's at bmb*
now that i am done these stats i already realize there are a few things i coould have done differently i.e. more categories and also spliting the score for each category into an e2025 score and an ee score; because it was hard to rank in some categories due to diffenrences in the game dynamics of the old earth compared to ee.
but there you have it. feel free to flame away.
each clan will be ranked out of fifty; there will be 5 categories worth ten points each. The categories are: longevity, warring capabilities, netting capabilities, leadership skills, and size.
