Suggestion from someone that never made part of any GT5 team or joined any official comp (so you don´t need to take care, if you don´t want):
- 1 Take double cares while and after you put someone into your team. Pay attention on his past, his earlier teams (in case there are any), why they are moving to a new one, how his personality really is and how he deal with coletive improvement and learning curve. I can figure how anxious you´re to fill up your team and emerge to the mainstream, but the first steps normaly are the hardest ones.
- 2 I suggest you dont ask for people to make new accounts to fit in your team. This system isn´t any effective. Instead, ask to people to add in their ingame signatures (loby in / loby out / win message and such) your team name. Flexibility is the key.
- 3 Follow the shedule of the main events. I know it sounds obvious, specialy for a comp team, but im not sure that all self-titled comp teams are so close to it.
- 4 Stay close and connected to the main teams.
- 5 Many issues can be solved in a tandem battle, but not them all. Diplomacy and honesty will be the first things that will make your team least longer.
Ah, and last but not least: Try something diferent. I know your idea is nothing but normal, but still... try find something that really make your team diferent to the the others. Or else the folks wont feel atracted to join your team, but the main ones.
