And let the others struggle to find teammies?
You honestly think that is going to bring folks here on a LONG TERM basis?
We are the flavor of the month right now- it won't take long before you are down to 5-10 teams again.
If you think the league can last with 3 teams, then so be it.
This league was THE ladder for years. It started with 5 players, then went to 10, then went to 15. It didnt die because of roster size. It died because of egos, it died because of people always fighting for what THEY HAD TO HAVE.
I can see in a few months, after you are back up to a healty amount of teams, increasing roster sizes. But even then, gradually, not from 15 to 35, geez.
I'm sorry if Kronic, Ducks, so on, have many players that want to play together. But if they aren't willing to give up a little for the long term health of the league, it will never work.
Sorry to sound the first discouraging word in here, but I was in Room 4 from almost the beginning, I think I have a feel for what will bring it back, and going to 35 immediately is NOT the answer.
