Are division placements random?

Division placement is done roughly by sign-up order. Also if you're really so determined to keep any good teams from pairing up how exactly do you plan to place ~30 teams in 8 divisions without any of those teams being together? I don't know if you've ever been to CMP before but nearly every division has at least 4 alliances that would fall under your qualification of "unfair power alliance". It's not really unfair when every alliance is strong. Alliance choosing process will be exactly the same, perhaps fewer strong alliances since there will be a lower concentration of the higher scoring teams in each division but otherwise the same.
