I regard the no-team option as the option of last resort, and only to be used if that scenario is in play. Once we figure out how to handle the scenario, I'll post it.
It's been suggested that players taking the no-team option simply be assigned random teams after the event, during scoring. That's what we usually do to fill a hole that isn't previously filled, anyways--is that more workable?
I'm not trying to find a meta here, just so everybody's aware. I'm simply trying to screw over as few people as possible, including myself, while dealing with that very specific scenario that is creating an awkward situation. That scenario exists, and I plan to write it into any rules that are written to cover it, as well as a safeguard against misuse.

I'm okay with that.
