Actually, if they use 3 up from Div2 as well to make 32 - that means 4 divs of 8.

Wouldn't it be better to have 4 divs of 9? needing 36 teams total instead.
in cpl now it's 4 by 4 with 16 teams. in div1 next year is it going to be 8 groups by 4 teams or 4 groups by 8 teams? how is it going to be with 32 teams in x-ball lite next year (if it is still on at all)? does anyone know? is there any system in place or we are going to wait for santa to tell us?

If you guys are going to be playing M7, then I guess they'll do divs of 4 teams and have an extra playing round in the knockout stages.

So you'll play more games than the CPL. However, how are they going to accomodate that in terms of fields? as 16 teams require a (pretty) dedicated field just for 7 man, will Div1 require 2 dedicated fields to get through their M7 games? Will that affect venue choices?

I am not sure i like M7 neither play nor watch. But don't think we'll have much of a choice if MS finally switches to M7 next season in all divisions. But what's in the air by the way? we saw pretty good looking and interesting to watch M7 tournaments (like marseille) and pretty boring ones (like bitburg) so it is not 100% better than classical 7man to me.... Can anyone enlighten is it definetely going to be M7?

As importantly, will needing 2 dedicated fields just for Div 1 affect the entry costs?
