    Just a thought, is this open to international BAs? Since it's the World Cup, I can see there being interest, but on the flip side I don't know if I can afford to ship internationally...

    That's the issue...it would be great to include international but difficult to get people to pay for shipping.

    Yeah in a more traditional BIF, I could see someone international offering to cover the additional cost... but if someone from overseas won the top prize, covering 16 international shipping charges would be crippling.

    I suppose it can be a 'cross that bridge when we come to it' issue, but given enough interest (I know this is your time I'm offering up, not mine) you could do a second, smaller BIF for overseas only.

    It's a good idea, and if any international BA wants to take the setup from this one and do their own, they should go for it. I will provide assistance needed but not up to running two at a time.
