...The reason i think 4 is better than 3 is that if a team wants to be evil they will be evil. There is a 4v4 League and that way is a group wanted to practice 4v4 domination they would be able to do it. So that way a group could practice there 4v4 skills at any time. The defense to that is the hide and strike or other teams forming to beat back the hordes. Now a squad like RG!! would of course self monitor allowing skills to form or attack someone who needs it 4v4 <img src='http://www.subspace.co/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

I'm loving the passion and brainwork in this thread.
On this specific point, Axe, I'm not sure I envision that a 4v4 squad has much more incentive to visit CZ if minimum freqs are set at 4 (as opposed to 3).
From my experience, whenever my past 4v4 squads have wanted league practice, we'd definitely stick to the 4v4 arenas. Although, to your point, there is more activity in CZ today than in those arenas, which are now often empty...
If we were waiting for a prac to start, hanging around or just catching our breath - we might come to CZ to let off steam. But this could be any combination of pilots, 5/6 as readily as 4, so we'd usually split up to different freqs as necessary.
Just my two-penny, gray-haired perspective on a small bit of a larger conversion <img src='http://www.subspace.co/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
