I like Gnrfan's idea and think we should go for it, but also go for the random distribution of people amongst the 2 leagues, me and D drafting people seems head up your own arse egotistical. Just a random split works fine. The stable thing could work the game after with the 2 Champions being the leaders and such.
I'm with Hammy! The more random the better. The champion of the leagues should not move but everyone else should be up for the move. We don't need captains. Think thats a silly idea.
I think the beauty of this game is that its simple. With new players coming in lets keep it that way. If we have 20 players, split it in to leagues of 10 and play. Down the road we can look at tweaking it or whatever or maybe have 1 gimmick game a year.... but lets just keep it simple.
If you want some sort of super league then i say do 4 leagues a year with the final game being the super league of sorts. however i think i'd be more in favour of 3 longer games with no super league. But i'm easy on that.
I don't think Stables will work in this format coz the scores will always be pretty much the same.
