The governing board is currently discussion the next round of expansion. We always kind of figured 32 was the natural end point and that 30 teams was just a stopgap. What was never discussed was the timing of going to 32 from 30. We're working on that right now with some fairly vigorous internal debate. So, we've decided to step back and collect some data, to help us frame our discussion a bit more. To that effect, there will be a series of polls released. Please take time to respond. Also, I'm not really looking to start a huge debate about various things. There will be time for that later. This is just an initial collection of opinions to see how you all feel we are. (As a book keeping note, I will not be taking points for any of these polls).
3) Expansion has made the league more enjoyable because (select any)
- More competition is more fun
- The new GMs add to the environment
- It reduced the talent glut some
- More potential trade partners

Re: Expansion Poll #3
Not voting as I don't really agree with any of these. Quality (not quantity) is what creates competition; GMs come and go, so the guys added through expansion would have gotten teams eventually anyway; I don't like trading with new GMs, so a glut of new GMs doesn't increase # of trading partners for me; it did kind of spread out talent, but that hurt me more than anything as I feel like we were one of the deeper teams in the league.
