Here we go again. :)
Now that we've done LaF, it's League's turn. Here is the list:

TOP 20 ALLIANCES, IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER

AoD
Arrow
CWG
Elitez
Genesis
ICN
IX
LaF
League
Legacy
MD
NM
Omega
PoW
RAGE
SoF
SOL
TheCult
TIE
UCN

Note: These are NOT ranked by value of the alliance. This list is ONLY to say (in no worthwhile order) what alliances are generally considered top 20.

Also, skip to the very end of my next post if you don't care to read long posts, or you already know what's going on.

THIS IS TOO LONG, WHY SHOULD I READ IT?
Don't, if you don't want to. Just check for the section titles and read what you care about. Check the end for a recap on exactly what I'm looking for without using too many words to hurt your poor aching head. ;)


HOW DID I COME UP WITH THIS LIST?

I took the initial list from the first The Rank Project thread, and took everyones suggestions and formed a new list from everyone's opinions.

Fortunately, the list wasn't ambiguous enough to where I needed to make personal decisions between "tied" alliances to determine who'd be on the list or not. In cases where one alliance had three votes for it, and one against it, and another had two votes for it, and none against it, I chose the one with no votes against it.


WHAT NEXT?

Now that Part I is done (selecting which alliances are top 20), here is Part II.

In this phase of The Rank Project, I ask that you all leave suggestions on what alliances FROM THE ABOVE LIST should generally be ranked BELOW the alliance currently being evaluated (today, League) on any top 20 list. Do not mention if you think someone is tied with League, or above League. Only say who you think should be below them. Name as many alliances as you want, from the list.


WHY ASK WHO IS BELOW ANOTHER ALLIANCE?

I'm hoping that by asking who would be BELOW League, rather than above League, this will avoid extraneous arguments about who is better, when all we really care about right now is who is generally agreed to be ranked in a certain relation to League.


WHY NOT JUST LOOK AT OTHER RANKINGS AND COMPARE?

The reason why I don't ask for everyone's own ranking of alliances is because that will be too difficult to fairly determine where most people put which alliances. With the method I am using, hopefully certain biases will be avoided and it will be more apparent that most people put alliance XXX below League, rather than most people ranked XXX about 7 or 8 where League was ranked between 3-5, along with many other alliances.


SO, WHAT WAS IT I SHOULD DO NOW?

1) Look at the list in the first post.
2) Think about League.
3) Think what alliances belong BELOW (not tied with) League.
4) Post here what you came up with.

IF (and only if, please :)) you are in League:
5) Also tell me your thoughts on why you think League is good/bad.

I'm a Leaguer just as Knowledge and we have almost the identical list so I guess that we already have decided this ;)

Seriously I of course think that TL are the best because I otherwise would leave. I think TL are the most fun alliance to be in but I listed some allainces ahead of TL just because I think that this list doesn't rank how fun the allaince are. I think that you want to make a list of "power" i.e which alliances have more "power" than TL. TL are only around 80 members so thats a limitation. I listed those alliances that I think TL would beat in a WAR. The only esceptions are Legacy and Rage who I listed after TL just because I don't think that they are way after TL if we would fight them 80 vs 80.
