Over the final two weekends of Alliance Tournament XI we are holding a special contest to award an amazing Alienware X51 compact desktop. And winning the computer is easy! All you have to do is tune in and listen.

At several points during the studio segments of the broadcast, our hosts will reveal a single word. When these words are put together and descrambled, they will form a password that you must then EVE Mail to me, CCP Eterne! After the final word is released, you'll have an hour to unscramble the sentence and then send the mail. Everyone who does so will be entered into a random drawing to win the Alienware X51!

But even if you don't win the computer, do not worry! We will also do other drawings to give away two Razer prize bundles, two 60-day ETCs from EVE Time Codes, and five Razer t-shirts and key holders.

The rules:

  1. At random points during the final four days of the Alliance Tournament XI broadcast, we will release part of a password.

  2. Once the final word has been released, descramble the password and then EVE Mail it to CCP Eterne within 1 hour of the release. (We will let you know when the final password has been released).

  3. Winners will be selected via random draw from the pool of individuals who send in the correct password.

  4. Winners will be notified and contacted in the week after the Alliance Tournament ends.

  5. Spelling counts!

  6. One entry per account. We WILL be double checking this and anyone who attempts to circumvent this rule will be disqualified.

  7. All customs/import fees for physical prizes shipped to the winner will be paid by the winner.


Up for grabs are the following prizes:

The x51 appears to be a compact desktop and not a laptop.

thanks a lot :D
now i dont have to watch all the studio scenes again just to be sure that i didnt miss a word while being afk for a minute every now and then ^^

(btw would have been a big chance to troll if you had said 6 or 7 had been released ;-), i'm glad you didnt choose that option :D )

Damn it I must have missed one of them. By any chance was "PAID" one of the words? If so I may have it figured out.

The full descrambled password can be bought from me, Bischopt, for 200 million ISK.

Won a year subscribtion to EON magazine during the last tournament, sadly the production of the magazine stopped during this time and I only received a single issue lol. At least I've got a pretty good guess as to what the password is :)

it has been said there would be 10 words. they let us know the 10th word. this is letting us know that it was the final password.

But CCP Falcon could be trolling everyone. That said, the 10 words I gathered so far do make sense :)

Would be nice to have some confirmatin from CCP though...

CCP Eterne,

Are you going to list the answers and the winners to all of these contests?

This contest should be well over by now.

In case somebody is still interested, the correct words and final password (I think) were/was:

-because
-double
-she
-damsel
-his
-Kruul
-the
-kidnapped
-wouldn't
-ISK

"Kruul kidnapped the damsel because she wouldn't double his ISK"
