Re: The 100 best AoC players (2001-2012)
If you are going to make a tournament list, don't forget these tournaments just because you can't find a website at today's date.. lots of these are 2 to 11 years old...
These are tournaments that I took first place in that are not on your list:
Legion Cup II (open tournament hosted by Legion for ballpark $3000 to $5000)
Regicide Tournament ($500 open tournament hosted by Legion)
AoC GGL Season I (you have GGL Season 2 on there in 2005.. hosted by Good Game League somewhere around $5000 total prize)
2vs2 Islands Tournament (early 2001 open tournament hosted by one of the smaller clans, me and pray_4yourlife won, about $200 in prizes)
Best Legion of Year (internal tournament in 2002 by Legion Clan, more than 60% of 2200+ were in the clan at this particular moment so it deserves mention, prize pool $10 000)
Tournament of Regicide ($1000 Legion open tournament, probably around 2004 to 2006)
AoC ABC Tournament (Legion open tournament ~$1500 total prize)
Arena Masters Tournament (don't have many details but this is a total guess: $500 total prize pool)
AoC Royal Battle Tournament (another Legion regicide tournament ~$1000 in prize, actually I can't remember which order the 3 were but they were several years apart)
MS Zone Intel Tournament (~$10 000 total prizes, only for North American Players)
World Clan War 1v1 Tournament (~$1000 in prizes, open tournament, hosted by legion, you could and many did make a 1 person clan to join it)
MFO Holiday Heroics Tournament ($3500 prize open tournament hosted by mrfixitonline.com starting december 2002 and ending in 2003)
Tournament on Arabia ($2000 total prize pool open tournament hosted by Legion)
Tournament on Arena (~$1000 prize pool open tournament hosted by legion on arena)
Banjo AoK Tournament (~$500 open AoK Tournament hosted by Banjo)
These are tournaments that I took second place in that are not on your list:
Rakeshty Tournament (not sure on details, if I was to guess would be ~$1500 total prize)
Imperator of Regicide (yes a 4th fortress regicide tournament hosted by legion... I believe there were 7 in total as I have 2 more internal ones on my list and I remember losing a tournament in the second round by scouting with my king near a castle lol)
AoC Unknown Tournament (~$2000 prize pool open tournament on the Unknown map)
Blind Random Anniversary Tournament (~$2000 prize pool open tournament on blind random)
That's the list for open cash prize tournaments that you missed in your list that I placed first or second in. I didn't keep a record of ones that I didn't earn a prize in, such as the xyz MFO smackdowns, zone tournaments, some of the fun FFA ones, etc. I did keep a record of internal legion tournament cash wins too but none of those are listed above.
Here's a GamePark Rating screenshot since you don't have one (this was probably about a year after the zone officially closed) - although I can't remember when the zone officially closed.

Also there are a lot more open entry cash tournaments that you are missing from your list of tournaments. Lots are listed here on aoczone. For the older ones I was going to recommend looking off the legion site but it seems that is recently shut down : (. There was also somebody who made a site with old school pics of some of the best players with a list of tourney wins and a related topic on the legion forum where several of us made a pretty detailed post about tournaments that weren't included on that site ( he never did update it ).
For the AoC cash tournaments I won or placed in you can refer to viewtopic.php?f=186&t=69712
Your list is looking pretty good. A couple players that were pretty good and missing from (probably near the bottomish part of your list - however were near the top 10 in late AoK): DevilZ_Aarsvark, DevilZ_High, DevilZ_Loki, Crexis. Also MoZoRy won the WCG 2000 trial run (although it didn't include nearly as many countries as the WCG 2001). Also, higher up on the list, where is mr ThuG_Rukie and mr YanZi!
