So what about Adelante?
With ComradeRob nicely summarising the Fury thread on this, the next obvious question is, 'What about Adelante?'.
Or at least, those Adelante now left without a core command staff. I don't believe by any stretch of the imagination that many of its members feel loyal and deep-rooted enough to form a BT-type attempted ressurection. But then again, no one has mentioed exactly who is left behind, and which of them is capable of such a feat.
And is anyone planning a collection fund for the alliance hoppers who left their old collegues to join the new big thing at the end of last round, only to find they're now homeless?
: )

I heard that nearly a third or more of their entire membership are in command positions. It strikes me as a bit much. :/

That's the product of mergers really. The various parties need to be given command positions to keep them happy, even if it doesn't really do the alliance any good. Since Adelante was made up of several smaller alliances (Adelante core, Vikings, OMG, DTA and probably others I've forgotten), there must have been a very great need for such 'sweeteners'
Conventional wisdom says that mergers don't work, and even in this 8th round it seems to hold true

'Sweeteners' hmm... I have no idea how Adelante has placed in rankings, while I under most circumstances disagree with 'bribery' (candy makes one's teeth hurt after a while) through, as it generally doesn't work and leads to leadership breakdown, I can only assume it hasn't harmed Adelante, so they stand to prove some old myths wrong (i.e. mergers don't work). Of course this business with Fury could 'upset' my statements, but whatever.

The thing is, of those you mentioned who 'merged' to form Adelante, neither are significantly large in their own right (were they separated from the main body). The 'mergers!=work' tends to be attributed to larger membership mergers, so it's not as if Adelante would have a difficult time with theirs. Though possible clashing of personalities could trip that up.
P.S. can you close some threads? Thanks.

not quite, before the mergers adelante had under 20 people
after the first merger the total grew at least 250%,
i cant remember who left OMG when i did, at a guess 15 or so which would still leave almost double the amount of what storebo's group had.
Vikings and the others polished it off nicely

Untrue....
Was 3 hc's... 5-6 officers and 6-7 dc's and some bc's(didn't have the effect of real bc's more 1-2 bc's for each battlegroup had only the function of choosing targets) 2military officers served as milit hc's extended hands...

The point remains that it's not a whole lot, regardless of percentage increase. Look to mergers such as BlueTuba (loose example, circa Round 2), WPO, Silver, and Legends. Those four being 'spotlight' mergers.
So again, it's not as if Adelante was a significant merger in of itself that would require so many command personnel. But hey, if it worked for their membership and brought Adelante the results it sought, far be it from me to disagree.

By my estimates... 18-21 command personnel in total.
Assuming there were 4 'battlegroups' (I'm using Rob's merger list as reference; I don't know specifically what you are referencing as 'battlegroup' so please correct me if needbe), four to eight BCs would exist. I negated to count the '2 military officers' as I assume those already existed within command.
18 to 21 persons, in an approximated 50-member alliance accounts for 36-42%... so in effect, I wasn't wrong. Math sucks.
I noted your 'Was' to mean that Adelante no longer exists in the same entity it was when it began Round 8? Have the whole of Adelante merged with Fury (if not full Fury membership, provisional in effect; wing?)? I seek only to know if the 'other' threads hold any substantial arguments before I spend any time on them.

Clarification
'Command' in my definition has always meant anyone who plays a role in 'leading' something within an alliance; HC, BC, Officer, DC, etc. etc. etc. Essentially, anyone who is not an 'average member' and holds enough power to make decisions affecting the alliance.
'Command' has never meant 'just HC' to me. That may make things more clear.

i must have underestimated peoples loyalty to me,

That's a significant increase in Adelante's membership than I've read. It's almost as if Adelante as a whole grew 50 members in a week. Huh.

My my, that IS a large number... I'm curious then why the 'belief' that Adelante had 50 or so members was perpetuated, assuming it was untrue? Is it a case of wildly successful rumor mongering or complete ineptitude on the part of those who assume to be 'in the know?'

well that test bot seemed to have a fairly accurate list.
I must say that the DTA members were still on it.
So the membercount will be a bit lower idd.

no you missunderstand the post.
at this time Adelante wasnt an alliance as such and was on loose ground, and he was as he put it a social/advisory member of adelante and just there due to his friends and doubted he would be a full member,
this is shortly after the attempted merger of adelante and mdk which didnt go through because mdk wouldnt allow adelante to have 2 hc level people.
i was just curious where the extra 20 members came from before mergers as from what i was told a lot had left to other alliances, several to mdk if i remember rightly and numerous other alliances, but then again i have no clue as you said

Well u don't have a clue yes... I think u have wrong members there... The first members was mostly darki and some of his friends... and hiddendragon and around 10 ely members... and they all stayed... And have been loyal for all this time. also some from yuba's batch could be some of thoose who didn't show up if u call it. Some of his men did not show up... But other then that....
And yes I do understand.... mongob0ffel informed me he had entered omg. And did so with my permission.. we wanted to take them over, based on his intel on omg. I can also post logs between me and mongob0ffel at this time... they are on norwegian tho.

Actually they allowed us 2 hc level people at the last negotiations.
However there was some in Adelante who was very much against merging with MDK, so I saw it like this: Loosing friends to get people I don't know... not an option..

This, combined with jornx's statements, leaves me to admit I stand corrected on my previous estimates.

Do you still play D2 regularly? If so - do you happen to know if DiabZ/Illegal still play it a lot?

merges never work... different alliances are funded because of some ppl wanting power or don't fit in any existing alliance.
when a merge happens we can divide the ppl over 3 groups actually: the egoistics, the powerhungry and the socials.
the egoistic are only in an alliance to get their own ass covered so they think the bigger the alliance is the better. ppl will not notice them giving no defense if the alliance is bigger but they'll swear off everything and everyone if they can't be covered when under attack themselves. in attacks they are alwast the most demanding on the targets and will take the best targets right away and if all the good targets are taken they will react about the same way as when they'll get no def.
the powerhungry are mostly the executives in an alliance and they will try to take things in they're own hands if they are in an alliance which stops to work efficiently. when there is a merge they want to have the same amount or even more power as they already have. if they can not obtain this they'll try to make the alliance disband and take most of the alliance members with them to another alliance where they do have that power.
the socials will act in the best of the alliance they are representing. some of these will encourage the merge others will discourage it with all their power. the socials most of the times are the steady core of an alliance.if they do not agree with the way things go they will keep pounding on it as long as it is heard and dealt with. these are almost always those who will leave if the situation isn't dealt with in a proper way in their eyes.
the best alliances have a good dividement of these groups in a good conversation between them. ofc there are more groups but none of these groups rlly matter on a merge. and most of the ppl in those groups can be put in one of these 3 'basic' groups
