Correct. I just used the numbers to break them into filling at least 3 divisions(series) in order to keep a decent number of Div 1s with the 49 Territories. BBs or someone smarter than me could come up a better way to break them up to try and fill 4 divisions(series).

For Italy-Malta as an example, each Territory would have 458 teams, more than filling 3 divisions(series).

I have 1757 players for sale and I'm $25,835,360 in debt. Buy them at outrageous prices, or be selfish and make me go bankrupt. You decide, BB.

My mistake. Could a GM or EGM move this to the Suggestions for me?

My reasoning for the Territory Teams was that if they were Region Teams it would only be 12. By having the "TT"s there is a larger competition.

The double flag isn't something I'm in favor of. But it seems to be a big deal-breaker for a lot of users in the Micro Merger thread.

Because then they would have to code the drafts in each Region to become that NT. Admittedly, you would have to write similar code for double-flags, which as I said I am against if people will concede their national flags.

And the biggest reason for me is to create parity for the NT competitions as league competitiveness increases with merged leagues. Players from Jamaica and Luxumburg and South Africa would be able to contribute to NTs that have a competitive chance at more than 1-3 wins a season and moral victories.

I look at the various suggestions according to standards I think are necessary and have been met in one or more other suggestions:
1. Every team retains its national identity and retains its flag.
2. Every country could continue in BBB.
3. Every country would continue to have its own forum.
4. Countries that do not want to merge with each other would not have to do that.
5. Every world would have a full Division 1, 2 and 3 at least, and probably a full Division 4.
6. The competitive and financial advantages and disadvantages of playing in a macro country or a micro country would be completely evened out.

You suggestion is interesting but misses #2m #4 and possibly #6.

Edited to add that your idea of a complete reset, involving EVERY country, has merit. I think nothing can be accomplished short of that.
