I find this idea fascinating,but not sure how it can be done practically.

Maybe a "pilot" where all teams play all the other teams,then say the top 14 or so teams form the BBO "First League",the next 14 or so form the BBO "Second League" and so on,depending on how many teams.

I would suggest at least 16 brd matches,and each team probably need 8 players.

Obviously no player can be on more than one team....

Then after 13 rounds (if 14 teams) there would be promotion/relegation of 3 teams or so.

Almost like a mini championship teams tourney B)

Or am I just dreaming? :unsure:

Any idea when season two is starting and are there any experts interested in forming a new team?

I might try to get a pard for that....

If you are going to set up a team, be sure to get at least SIX team members, if not eight. The reason being, people from ALL OVER THE WORLD play, and you will get some very odd request for game time in your local time zone (if you are in poland for instance, your american opponnets may want to play when you should be sound asleep.. if you are in america, your swedish opponents may want to play in the middle of your work day)...

The more team members you have, the EASIER it will be schedule matches.

I might consider it. Would be fun.
