Might it be time to drop or, at least, reduce the requirement for six players to have played in TvT? Our small team rarely registers a score in this game, as is reflected in the table.

I used to request this all the time on the small team I was on. I think five would be a good threshold, even though my current team doesn't have trouble making 6.
And thanks for doing this. Though many teams are not in the top ten, it is still fun to see how we do month to month.

Or perhaps different small teams with 2 or 3 or 4 active players may merge if there is any possibility of it! It would encourage team and players to play! But not sure if players would be interested to do that?

I think the 6 isn't that bad a threshold, but a team should still be able to get some points if they don't make it - just treat missing players as 250s (300 is the normal minimum) and average based on that. A team with five good scores would still get something in this scenario instead of a 0. As someone on a team with only 3 regular players (and only 4 who've played in the last month or so), I think this is a great idea. I'm less than 100K from the badge for a million team points but have been stuck there for about a year. I don't want to leave my teammates, so this will help me make slow progress towards the badge (which is better than I'm doing now).

What a great idea, Wes! We were short one player yesterday and dropped from 3rd place to 9th place due to weather and internet connection problems. I really hope you will consider this -- it's a brilliant idea!
And thank you, so much, for all the hard work you put into these stats for all of us.

Thank you for the stats, Wes!
The Mossbacks are awesome. I don't think anyone can catch them, but it's a goal to try for. We definitely keep an eye on them, and I mean that in the best possible way.
Congratulations, Mossbacks! You Rock!

Thanks for these statistics, Wes. It's nice to be on a team that is in the top 100! We fell a bit since last month, but we are still doing well.
