In view of the current discussion of geographic 
advantage/disadvantage in NAQP,  maybe the teams should be spread 
geographically.  Perhaps one team member from call areas 1&2, one 
from 3&4, etc. 
 
That should even out the the effects of location, real or perceived!

 If there were to be any changes/tweaking of he NAQP rules my suggestion
 would be to make the teams more regional.
 
  I disagree. 
 
There are a variety of contests with "regional" club/team categories. 
Every contest shouldn't be just like every other contest, and NAQP adds a 
different dimension with the dispersed team concept.  
 
This departure from the "you must be in a 175 mile circle" paradigm, allows 
a bunch of buddies to get together and form their own "dream team" against 
other "dream teams".  
 
Keep it like it is!
