Hidden Agenda

Full Name: Hidden Agenda Short Name: HA Public IRC Channel: #hidden-a Alliance website: http://www.hidden-a.org

Description

Hidden Agenda is a alliance that focuses on new and returning players. They consider themselves a training alliance and are open to both paid and unpaid planets. They employ a set of private tools including a bot accessible through both IRC and a private website. The bot handles defense calls and scan requests and has a couple of other functions including some with pure comic value.

Hidden Agenda has been playing uninterrupted since it was founded halfway into round 12.

Neutrality

Hidden Agenda tries to maintain a sense of neutrality. They usually evade affiliations with top 10 alliances and prefer not to be dragged into wars. An affiliation with TGV in Round 22 is the only known exception. Affiliations and even mergers with minor alliances are more frequent.

Drama

Hidden Agenda has a low amount of drama. One of the few internal issues (that became public) is the drop to 13th from 10th place on the final day of round 23[1]. Hidden Agenda still landed attacks later on the day and ended the round 12th.[2]

Ranking

Despite 'laid-back' attitude, HA had always been placed fairly highly amongst the midranked (top 15) alliances. But recently they have been performing better ending 10th in Round 24, 9th in Round 25 and 10th again in Round 26. they achived a respectable 8th place in Round 27 In rounds 29 and 30 they dropped to 11th. In round 31 they started at a bleak 14th but surged to an amazing finish of 6th picking up 20 million score in the last few days

Recruitment

Hidden Agenda caters to the casual Planetarion players, usually resulting in a recruitment thread with a comical undertone. For example one of the earlier threads stated:

Can you not stay on your alliance's IRC channel 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for one of the following reasons?

• Work, for food
• A desire to see the sun, or breathe fresh air
• To see your children
• School
• Sleep
• Sex

If you are a person who needs to engage in one or more of the activities listed here, then Hidden Agenda is an alliance for you.
