In all honesty a tournament will take a whole season to do....everyone can pretty much agree that USA has the best OVERALL AAA leagues. We can vote for 2 of the teams to face off for it and then it's done.

I agree that USA aaa2 would win any tourney run but I think it would be hard to pick just 2 teams but I'm not quite sure who I'd choose.
Which says a lot because no other AAA leagues have more than 1-2 teams that have any real case for the trophy.

there should be a wait list for challengers, at least 4-5 long so when this does happen, It probably will often, the next 2 on the wait list play for the trophy. Obviously that doesn't solve shit now, but for the future it will!

I'm thinking we're going to have to see how this season goes before a decision is made moving forward.
The thing we're worried about most is a AAA team promoting every season, meaning we go through this mess every season.
Tournaments take too long, and would end up negating the concept of the trophy. Picking two to four "worthy" teams to fight it out in a short tournament would be difficult, and not fair.
So, the options right now would be to A) Ditch the traveling concept and just do a AAA tournament or B) Find a way to pick the 2-4 best AA-AAA teams at the beginning of each season to duke it out.
We are looking into having a AA-AAA "Commissioner" that can devote their time to this. As you can imagine though, most people care about the pros. I'll let people know if we start to look for candidates outside of the board.

I think you may need a dedicated person to run the AA-AAA cup season after season then they could pick worthy teams to face off for the cup in the event of a cupholder getting promoted. They can also sort through all of the BS challenges. Basically come up with a list of teams that would be actually eligable to challange for the cup based on rating bars and quality of play......because there could be a 57 rated team on a 30 game winning streak SEA but they have no shot at beating a USA AAA team. Just someone who has some common sense and an unbias opinion of leagues.

My vote is for Polo to commish this thing - he will do a bang up job!
