If the team is drawn at random, then surely there would be no point in having a captain?
I agree with Carl, a captain picked, who needs to pick 2 players that have not played for the APAT team before.
Team atmosphere is a massively important factor in team games and I think that a team full of people who dont really know each other is not going to be that enjoyable for anyone?

If it is a team representing APAT, there is no need for them to know each other. We had this discussion already about the national teams. Select them on results imo, not on whether they are in the clique. How about having a qualifying competition?

Reading back on my post I dont think I made it clear what i was thinking. I dont want the "best team possible" scrapped, I would like to see an additional team added of randoms. The forum team was a great idea but again it was a captain picking a team.
Carl, its great that you picked 2 players who had never played for Apat before...but thats just it...it was just 2 players out of LOADS who would love to play for Apat. As someone who has played for the team in the past I know how special it feels to be picked and for that reason I wouldnt put my name forward again so someone else can have that experience.
As sleeves has said, you dont have to be best buddies to make a team work. I was captain of that online league team and although we had only chatted online we had developed a great relationship and it was the cherry on the cake to actually meet each other as a team face to face. I was named captain, I didnt have any experience on what to do so we discussed strategy as a team. We went in there determined to do the best we could against a lot of very strong teams and took silver so it works sometimes :D
I REALLY really like Johns idea of having a qualifying competition btw.................................did I just agree with Mr Murray ??
