It takes a lot of coordination to get a team together. If someone believes the rewards for captains are too high, I encourage them to start a team of their own. I want as many teams competing as possible.
Edit: Some mistakes were made copying over the gold amounts from various drafts. The correct gold amounts are now listed for each place. The wording of collectible rewards has been edited for clarity. Rule added that you can only be the captain of one team. This was always the intent, but it was never expressed in the rules until now. You may still play on up to three teams and may be a listed backup for as many as you'd like.
