If you are in the Top 5 or so in the rankings, youd be mental to play in the Team Event (unless, of course, you dont want to win player of the year)
Lots of juicy side events, with depleated fields (due to the Team Event Running)
I think that a seperate w/e for the World Team Event should be organised that is just centered around the Teams so that all the players can also play all sides at the Worlds. Maybe a logistical nightmare, but would be nice to see.
I was also part of the convo at DTD with Des, Mark, Leigh, Chris and Dave.
Running a "Team" element, open to all, at the Worlds is a great idea.
Teams are submitted, with a minimum of 5, max of 10.
You name your selected "4" for each side event, and these are the only players that can score points.
People can make there own teams, from friends and encourage more newbies to come.
Teams pay a flat entry fee
Sounds awesome

After several conversations with IrishTom in Prague i was under the impression that the team format was NOT going to be changed for the WCOAP and the teams would be made up of 4.

....but, if the team format is 4 players per team, then that IS a change as prior events have all been 5 players per team.

Isn"t this just an extension / slight alteration to the "Forum" Team Championships format which will be in held in Stoke?
The ECOAP / WCOAP Team events are, and should be, teams representing their countries.

IIRC, this was changed for S6 because of the introduction of HU matches for the medals at the end of the 2 days.
From the thread last week, these appear to have been abandoned so the teams have gone back to 4 players.

Duffi means (I think) that now that the decision has been made to reduce the team size to 4...that decision is not going to be changed.
