That is a cool idea Sabi, but in reality it is probably rare that one event will get an entry from every single team, and even more rare that there will be 2! So I'd say most events would be stuck at 1 entry per team, max 2. It might work if the teams were more balanced in numbers already (so maybe if there is a draft/cap) but right now the larger teams would have most of their members not even being allowed to participate at all for the week and maybe the whole WAR, which isn't very fun for them. Plus again there's an issue of how to choose who gets to participate if more than x number want to. If it was something known from the beginning, it would probably encourage people to make/join small teams, which could be good.
Considering we actually do want as much participation as possible, it seems a bit counteractive to limit participation.
A random draft sounds pretty interesting... Probably not something that I would join in because I only really find fun being with my friends, but I guess it would deal with a lot of issues.
Since Elysia asked, I'd like to mention that the staff's motivation when discussing this WAR was purely to create an event with maximum participation and focus on fun and friends, not winning. We aimed to get new members involved, which is pretty much why Trainer and Prism were created. :) It seems it has turned into a bit more of a competitive thing than the just-for-fun game I hoped it to be, so we will have to take that into account for next year.
