I think having two separate WARs and systems would be a bad idea just to separate the competitive teams and the "joke" teams. To be honest, I don't really like the term "joke" team anyway; what if a "joke" team had the most active people on it and won WAR, or got second? Are they still a joke? They probably would've had the most fun out of any other team, which, iirc, was the main point of this years WAR: to have fun. Albeit yea, this is a competition, but there seems to be a blend of "joke" teams and competitive teams imo; some teams seem to focus more on competition than others, some more about fun, and others that are in between.
Also just because a team focuses more on fun doesn't mean they shouldn't be allowed to compete (and vice versa: competitive teams should be having fun). More likely less people would join those teams, which leads us in a nice segue to team system issues.
There seems to be a more consensus from experienced people about the draft not working well, or giving results that work, but aren't as fun. Also, people seem more inclined to a soft cap, or a variation of a soft cap. That still presents an issue where Lord Celebi pointed out that people would then wait until the team they want opened up. I think we should discuss more about how to solve that issue, and maybe, not solve it.
I would think if people were interested in doing WAR by themselves, they would be willing to join a variety of teams and if a team they wanted was full, they could wait, but eventually would have to choose one. Recruiting people to teams that are harder to get people into would help this issue, or maybe blending teams together that are too, or very small. (I know blending teams in the past has been an issue, but those teams would have to come to realization that if they want to be on the competing platform they would need to blend or accept that they may not be as big a force as they may have wanted).
Any system we eventually agree upon (or at least majority agrees upon) will not be perfect and some people will be upset about it; however, I also think any of the ideas that have been presented so far would help the system we have and that's better than nothing.
EDIT: also I agree with Felly that if something didn't work out before, maybe we can tweak it and try again.
