I am requesting additional information

What exactly are these gigs you speak of ?

What if a BH and its members choose not to participate ?

Plarium is not making enough money so now they will force BH's to fight each other ?

It does not matter your ranking system you have put my # 69 rated BH with 16 active members up against # 34 BH with 22 active members ?

You call your ranking system fair ?

Congratulations you will now force thew non and occasional coiners to quit a game that was once fun to play

Well done Plarium

Even though the BH member roster shows 18 members, it may have 4 or 5 active players, so it's not really fair just because the numbers state one thing.  I guess we can all put up a full protection. Some BH's don't care to participate in things like this it's like forcing us to go to war now. This is probably the reason we have never participated in the war's.   I've been in this game 5 years, and I have played the game this way, attacking, going to war, etc...  I now just with to play my game on my terms, and be left alone, but now the game is going to force this on us. Not really fair to us, is it????     We have 4 to 5 active members, but our roster shows 15 or 18, not all of these play on a daily basis and may go for days without even logging in.  But now your going to rate the BH's because of the roster numbers, wow...  

Like I said, I will keep a full protection on, to keep from being attacked. Get the message, why is it wrong for a player or a BH to play on their own terms????

So that doesn't go to suit Plarium so now you force this on us, wow...  Like I said, we may have 4 or 5 active players but our roster shows us to have 18. The numbers on the roster means nothing, it's the players that log in everyday that means something. Your numbers mean nothing plarium...

Keep forcing these things on us and your player list will keep declining. This is the worse activity yet.  I won't do it. So go ahead and do your Brotherhood Brawl, This isn't fair to the BH's that don't wish to participate. We always had the opportunity to go to war if we wanted to, but that wasn't good enough I guess. Now your going to shove it down our throats.  Well get ready Full Protections. I won't participate. I will stay protected.

This of the stupidest things plarium has thought of. One way to run your best players out of the game!!! We already have war challenges so why would you implement this type of brawl against a BH that has a few active members. We will kill them,. Not fair for the other players on the game seriously. 

Hello, Captains!

Thanks for sharing your opinion with us. It was interesting to read it. I know that sometimes new things are scary , however, I'd suggest you give this tournament a chance. 

Please note that for the first Tournament, Brotherhoods will be divided into Tiers based on their Power Points to make it competitive and fair. In subsequent Tournaments, every Brotherhood will be placed in a Tier based on the Tournament Points earned in the previous Brotherhood Brawl. Brotherhoods are matched with others in the same Tier. Higher Tiers yield greater Rewards.

Besides, you can get points for doing many things in the game. If you don't want to fight with your friendly BH, you can easily skip these tasks and concentrate on doing other things. All the same, you'll get nice rewards 

Good luck! 

ahh,  

the out with a bang theory,

so is this to find out who really is the biggest and baddest coiners over the lifespan of the pay to win concept in the final months of the adobe flash shut down?

as i see right off,  in the top tiers some allies will have to fight each other

yeah right,  like that will ever happen

maybe a few of their many alts might have a go at their other alts that are in both BH`s

so you think tournament will take away from bigs suppressing the smalls?

as in keeping their bastion down because you never added a level 10 mile stone to make the smalls bastion more defendable for a more competitive game to where most tend to push their coiner whale fat?

i think not..

yep.  i seem to get more enjoyment out of watching this kind of stupidity than playing your game that i will never win at simply because i wont spend good money on a bad idea of pay to win

and believe it or not my money is good everywhere

I'm a bit confused as well.  I was looking at what info in game I could find.  I don't see anything directly related to fighting.  It looks to be based upon membership activity for in game tasks.

Am I correct on this?

Will there be BH Brawl rewards based upon attacking the opposing BH in your brawl?

I personally don't agree with that.  BH's shouldn't be random lottery style picked into a fight.  We all have our own game motivations not always in line with what the game wants us to do.  I do like the idea of extra loot based upon a BH's overall active status however.

Here, Alina said (my emphasis):

Tournament Tasks

Your Brotherhood must complete Tournament Tasks to earn Tournament Points. The Tasks can be viewed in the "Info" tab of the Teaser found in the Event window. There is a huge number of Tasks, so all active Brotherhood Members can earn Tournament Points easily. The types of Tasks are:

• PvP Battles. Earn Points for Units destroyed at various locations.

Note: ONLY the Units belonging to your Opponent Brotherhood will earn you Points.

I don't like it either, but fighting your opponent is not mandatory. It's just one of many ways to get points.

Ya Alina real fair when you throw a BH with 16 active players in the same tier with the likes of EURU with 130 + members Ban@ne and NSF

Even after the 1 st BH brawl Our BH is still lumped in with BH's with 50 or more members  

This is a bulls hit tournament being forced on BH's and nothing more than an attempted Plarium cash grab

 Sorry my BH members will not give Plarium another single dime 

Let your coiner BH's puff out their chests and pull out their wallets to prove who is king of the seas and who is willing to spend the most money to win

We will keep our money Thank you

The number of players had nothing to do with it. Power points = the total strength of all units without any upgrades/boosts applied. These BHs may not be as strong as you think. I don't know them; I'm just going by what the first tournament's rules say.

The Tiers in all of the Brawl Tournaments except the first one are based on the performance (which really is mostly activity) in the previous one. If a BH has 5 active members and 45 dormant ones (maybe alts, maybe just people who do nothing more than a few clicks a day), then their activity will be low. Similarly, if your BH is very active, you'll get in a higher Tier with bigger (but not as active) BHs.

The tournament window even tells you in which points range were all the BHs in your tier in the previous Brawl tournament. This is from my mostly dormant BH on s1:

Nobody's forcing you to fight anyone. I don't know a single BH that started a war over this tournament. I'm sure they exist, but BHs can agree to just ignore the PvP part, as it is a minor chunk in the overall activity.

I actually made new friends on one map, while talking to them about not doing the PvP thing.
