Re: MARC 2012

I don't have any problem with co-op since we were pretty successful with it all year; in fact, although a little more difficult, we managed to go 9 for 9 on Galileo. However, if you do decide to do away with it for MARC, it might be interesting to play elimination rules (triple balance) for the whole thing. Of course that may open a whole other can of worms...the scheduling gods may put some teams consistently on alliances that can triple while others get doomed to alliances that don't have a chance. My preference would be to keep the co-op...I like to think that most teams at this event would put an honest effort into doing it, or at least be honest in telling you that they don't plan to.
