What's a good number of people on a team? Also, I don't think there's a mechanism to set up team matches, so do we just keep track of who's playing whom? If one team has 5 members and another has 10, is it better to just play 5 against 5, or should the 5 each take on 2 players? All of these questions probably fall in the area of personal preferences, but I thought I'd ask. I'm sure others would like to know, too.

Thanks.

Hi tewald,

this is a good topic. I think the games should be organized in a general way. I also think 6-8 games/players per team should be maximum, but this is a personal opinion. This makes it also possible for nations with low count of players. And if this is a little bit more organized maybe it is possible to start an unofficial league were every nations team battle the other nations.

Well, I guess no one else is interested.

Presumably we could get some feedback from the ongoing matches. Just a thought. Cheers.

I have been playing team games during my college days and the usual number of players in a team is 6 whereas 4 plays the regular boards (1,2,3, & 4) and the 2 players act as reserves. It can be a round robin system for a small group or a swiss system for a larger group. 8-)
