Question OTW Striper Cup, enhanced rules, Should S-B fish as a team?

Primary Improvements are listed below - Detailed Rules are listed on OTW's site: http://onthewater.com/stripercuprules.html as well as the post by WHDave: http://www.striped-bass.com/Stripert...ad.php?t=30572

1 Reduced weighed in fish from 2 to 1 per week (still 34" minimum which is a common minimum in club contests)

2 Angler of Year - 2 Divisions, Boat & Surf, with each division awarding to the aggregate weight of the top 5 fish of any one angler - also down considerably in the total amount of fish potentially wieghed in.

3 Striper Cup, Club, and State awards are based on the heaviest TEN fish weighed in by a club. The new rules effectively remove the need of weighing in 34 inch fish as well as bringing small clubs and large clubs more on par, evening the odds.

I personally feel that OTW made substantial changes to the BENEFIT of this tournament and I applaude their efforts in doing so. You all spoke, others from clubs and individual readers spoke, and On The Water listened and embraced the general consensus. The process of oublic comment worked, and OTW addressed the majority of the concerns of the public.

So now, we are in Club OTW Poll Part Deaux. I am looking to get the pulse of the site members as to whether S-B should field a team under the new rules but I need your opinions:

BTW - you can vote twice...
