but then the English teams wouldn't be the best players. they'd be groups of friends. Qualifying wouldn't work imo.

Stage 2 of planning, when all countries/regions are properly defined, will involve The Vote for each team captain.
The idea was to determine the teams first, then decide on captains, then have each captain create their own thread for applicants, who they could then choose from :/
The point being I had an idea how I was going to organise things.
Can I just point out that for future reference; if people want to help I'm happy to invite them to do so, and appreciate that, but random people popping up and rushing the entire planning process is just going to make this whole thing less likely to happen. I took it upon myself to organise the WC' - I've organised one in the past, learnt from mistakes and know that planning has to be tight this time round. Atm this is looking very rushed, and rushing it will just make it suck, as well as wasting the time and money of players who thought this a good idea.
The problem is not having enough players for certain countries, so you divide up certain countries... still without knowing how many people can/will play in each country?
People should have applications for ONE country, then based on the interest you can gage how many are available per country.
Given the lack of applicants for the Australian / NZ team may I suggest merging it with the asian team? This would open up and additional spot for another UK team (Making it possible to have North / South England, for example).
I'm not sure whether people would be more interested in an in-game based reward, like a special unit, or a 20-50 point reward in the "User Awards" section, something like "World Cup Winner".
Or something.
I should also probably point out that this isn't going to be a PW for everyone. The whole point is that each team consists of the best 10 players from a country (or agreed geographical region).
