Okay look let me be clear one LAST time.
Firstly, captains are decided on reputation basis more than anything else. Secondly, that is only a probable list.
Now, about your "Team Germany" or "Team New Jersey", I don't really care. These are just broad categories, we will sub-divide them further. Its all about turnout. So please, just use those categories for now.
Once we come up with the final teams, we'll sort it all out. We were sure to have 8 teams of 8 but hopefully if we get enough participants we might go for 12 or 16 teams of 8. So thats how it is.
Lastly, if you're friend wants him, he can register and post for himself.
