Ah, I see. I might be mistakes. I was contacting some players about a CS snipe from an Outlawz player, and both KRAKEN and DOOM players said they wouldn't snipe someone from their own alliance. They seemed to be sharing several islands, which confirmed this to me. But I might have misunderstood then. If it's only KRAKEN Beers and Kraken MORE Beers being in an alliance together, it still seems excessive, and I'm unsure what the second alliance is hoping to gain from it (since there's only one winner), but I suppose that leaves a little more competition ... once the bigger alliances actually start fighting.
