An alliance depends upon quality. Quantity has merits but it is no substitute for a tight knit group of experienced and clever players; for them, distance is not really a problem.

I disagree, if the memebers of your alliance are more than 12 hours away they can never support you if you should wake up with a CS in your harbor, quality doen't pay its way then ;)

There are points to both, first Quality, you would want people who you don't mind rubbing shoulders with. Quantity, 10 good partners is better than 2, Proximity, if everyone is too far it doesn't work as a deterrent. Have I got this wrong?

Rissoles is the one I would go with here. Quality over quantity. Before I quit Eta I was getting 20+incomming a day from "quantity" and i was still taking their vills even though I wasnt seriously playing at that point.
If those had been "Quality" attacks I would have been dust....
Du Patron you are looking at it through noob eyes.....in that case your alliance mates would already have you stacked.

as I said I'm noob (probably one of the most experienced noobs you'll ever see) :p

I have my vision, you've got yours, mine had proven itself several times ;)

To each his own.

This is akin to the thread named "rate the alliance above you". The rating is entirely dependant upon the motivations of the individual doing the rating... a like minded person will rate well whereas an opposite minded person will denigrate.

The same applies here. DuPatron, you must ally yourself with a group that thinks along the lines that you do, you will be more comfortable there (even if you are wrong :) )

meh.... do it your way DuPatron I have no vested interest was just trying to help you out there. I have played Travian Tribal Wars and probably 6 out of the 10 Grepoworlds.
I still say the"Quantity" will have no co ordination and send unescorted attacks (even then usually only 10% or so will have the nous to attack) whereas the "Quality" will time the attacks to be effective.

I didn't say quantity is better, cause my biggest problem on this server is that most alliances are to big for me, I like alliances around 30 to 35 members. My issue was that distance can be killing for a player and can weaken an alliance, so members should not ben more then maximum 6 to 8 hours away ;)

Alot of alliances are just recruiting alot at the moment, some will likely place an alliance cap in later and start kicking dead weight freeloaders. Its too early to judge alliances in this aspect, I'd say wait for a month after protection ends before you start making judgements like these.

Other than that, I'll have to adjust my strategy since Im used to Revolt system... where being 8-10 hours away is still acceptable.

I think mraing at the start is bad. To get members I say conquest somebody. That'll get your alliance noticed
