Now that we've done TIE, it's UCN'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, UCN) on any top 20 list. Do not mention if you think someone is tied with UCN, or above UCN. 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 UCN, rather than above UCN, 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 UCN.


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 UCN, rather than most people ranked XXX about 7 or 8 where UCN 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 UCN.
3) Think what alliances belong BELOW (not tied with) UCN.
4) Post here what you came up with.

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

Also, since we've reached the beginning of a new reset, keep in mind that I'm asking for opinionated rankings based on how you feel about the alliance and their performance (past, present, and future expectations), and NOT about who pulled what rank at the end of last reset.

Yeah, but pretend it does. ;) Even though they've moved in with Titans, you still probably have an opinion of what you thought of them, right? When the top 20 list was made, people wanted AoD on there (even if most people put them at around rank 20), so they're there.

Everyone else below (although about 4 are close, very close - almost a tie.

they ranked them all below UCN
