I think we should try something leaning towards option B rather than A.
A lot has been said about keeping players interested, if you had 50 - 60 teams with 6 players surely no team could run away with the League.
Also, if your team is lucky enough to win something, at least with teams of 6 you will each receive a prize. How many of the 107 Scots actually received anything?
Whatever is decided, I will play because I like playing Poker.
What about an Individual Online League? ( no excuses about team numbers, people not turning up, etc )

hi_am_chris:
I think you could do A and B teams for regions ? (obv more with the bigger teams) Agree a cap on the amount of players a team can have and as soon as they hit that total the team is complete. Maybe cap it at a maximum of 40 or 50 players, most regions will still just have the one team? Maybe have players state their first team they are eligible to play for and their second in order of preference. If their first choice is full up then it is down to luck to whether their second choice has already filled their alotted spaces with people that have had it as their first choice. With regards to the bigger teams i think preference would have to initially be given to those who supported their team throughout season one over players who are new to the league.

FWIW if you cap it at 40 or 50 players it encourages the teams who got slightly below that last time to introduce new people to APAT to fill their squad up and increase the evergrowing numbers of APAT members

GiMac:
Ok here is my tuppence. Personally I do not feel that those teams who made an effort to recruit new members to APAT and then actively encourage attendance should be penalised. Accordingly I would propose that some teams, who seem unable to get their numbers up, be amalgamated into neighbouring teams examples would be EMids/WMids, Ireland/Europe, East of England/London. Then numbers are more equalised. But if that can"t be done then option A is the only way that doesn"t penalise the enthusiastic & positive contribution by those teams who have driven up numbers.
