Some alliances give points for attacking and defending, so they can keep track of how helpful alliance members are. Alliances generally are organised on IRC and often have their own forums and/or IRC servers to increase privacy and communication ability. Some alliances have a "minimum IRC activity time" together or instead of a points system - inactive players don't pull their weight in the long term and so often require a lot more defence than they give.

What IS an Alliance?

Alliances are collections of people that join together to help each other. Any planet at any given point in time will often have unused ships and fleets. There will also be people being attacked. It makes sense to join together to put these ships to use, doesn't it? Also, if lots of people attack a galaxy at the same time, it increases the chance of success.

Nothing would srrpuise me when it comes to Hannity. He seems to have mastered the art of feeding false and half truth information to the public. He has been caught numerous times fabricating information for his FOX TV talk show. The most recent incident that we know of was the showing of one of McCain and Palin?s presidential campaign rallies where Hannity tried to pass it off as a huge turn-out for (taking place right now") one of Sara Palin?s book singing events. Sponsors of Hannities talk show and advertisers with FOX would better serve All Americans if they backed away from this clown.

So how do I join?

As previously mentioned, many of the alliances require IRC. Some of the bigger alliances require vouches (people already in the alliance knowing you and saying you're a good player), but many just interview and require a minimum activity time. A list of all the Round 14 alliances playing can be found here.
