I have a new idea about as try become team tournaments more competitive and interesting, and would like to share it with all you.

Unfortunately, some people prefer choose strong teams to play and, this way, there’s a big disparity between teams. Many times, before team tournaments started, seeing all teams already signed, I and probably many people know who will be the winner, and this is very sad for competition.

To try changing this situation, my idea is that each team captain could choose the position of their players in tournaments. Example:

Now
Team A                                                                  Team B
- Player 1 - 2200 points                                          - Player 2 - 2100 points
- Player 2 - 2155 points                                          - Player 2 - 2050 points
- Player 3 - 2000 points                                          - Player 3 - 1900 points
- Player 4 - 1800 points                                          - Player 4 - 1600 points
- Player 5 - 1750 points                                          - Player 5 - 1500 points

Probably, team A would win 5-0.

My idea
Team A                                                                 Team B
- Player 1 - 2200 points                                         - Player 1 - 1600 points
- Player 2 - 2155 points                                         - Player 2 - 1500 points
- Player 3 - 2000 points                                         - Player 3 - 2100 points
- Player 4 - 1800 points                                         - Player 4 - 2050 points
- Player 5 - 1750 points                                         - Player 5 - 1900 points

Team A preferred keep the order of their players and team B decided change it, so probably Team B would win 3-2. Besides, in a team tournament, there're some teams playing and each team captain will have a different idea to order his team, so will can there be many surprises.

This is my main idea. But there's a question...when a team captain signed his team, the real order of players cannot appear visible for everybody. So, the information of players will must appear for pontuation like now (and will change when the tournament start), or is hidden by ???????? like in "run around the pond".

What do you think about that?
