Personally I'm comfortable with expanding to 14 teams from a community point of view, but I'd want to see the discussion be about the pros and cons of expanding the amount of teams and who's comfortable with how many. I don't know how many other people are comfortable with expanding how far and I think that's a better discussion to have at this point. The question is at what point that "might help" is not worth the extra issues that adding more teams creates for current players/gamerunners and I can't answer that question for anyone but myself.
