- Only one setup needed.
- Given a nice venue, volunteers may stay the week. (Disney come to mind)
- No arguing who the real champ is.

I would absolutely be in favor of this, however there are a few logistical issues that might be difficult to overcome.
Airfare for the winning team from the first half would be a nightmare. Teams wouldn't know if they have to hold over their flights until the last day and getting them reworked at the last minute seems all but impossible.
Asking those same students to take more time off of school again at the last minute prolly wouldn't fly with the administration.
Also getting volunteers who would be able to give the full week of time needed would be a daunting task in and of itself.
I do think that maybe something should be done so that the 2 winning alliances meet up at some point to determine an overall champion.
