I am most often trying to place top 50 myself, but sometimes I'm just one-two points ahead of the desired placement. (Still needed that purple Loki though.)

Now if you are in a 5 man alliance, I understand, but if you get your's up to 20 members, it's practically auto win.

Although I feel bad for selling covers the 500hp I received for the alliance winning makes me feel better that I got the points required. Now onto the wolverine PVP I am going all out as I am liking what my lazy cap is doing at present.

Actually I'll go one further on that, how about that they keep taking 1st place in villian LRs that they have fully covered as well?

I'll break it down for you: because we cannot see whether our alliance members are shielded or not, we are forced to individually keep competing. Further, most of the alliance had shielded up well before the event ended. Many rushed to first, popped a shield, and then nobody ever came to challenge the position. That's on you, not us. We've won the last 2 PVP events by a combined maybe 600 in score? In both events? It is definitely possible for us to lose. Just because we all climbed the ladder early and parked ourselves there just in case doesn't change things. Blame your friends in other alliances for making us compete instead of gifting us 1st place. Or would that be too on the nose for you? Keep in mind that not everyone in SHIELD has fully covered 4* and we're just as entitled to the ISO/covers as anyone else. Ferrett: Until the game rewards us with tons of ISO for being awesome, you're going to see lots of competition in any event that generates a lot of ISO. LR's generate a lot of ISO. Also, LR's for two cover villains (Doom, Loki, Ragnarok) pay HP, while many people in the alliance need to respec their C Mag (top 2 finish required). Win instead of complaining.

I do not really want to get into the larger argument here, but let me say that I do not believe for one second that the members of your alliance do not communicate very, very well, so this bit here rings a bit untrue.
