i recalculated it
it "could" work - my 2 preferred systems
sys1) 1 team germany, team GB, team benelux, team USA and team <Rest>
league system - maybe 2 games against each team
sys2) 2 german teams, team benelux, team GB, team USA and team <Rest>
2 divisions á 3 teams - #1's and #2's move on to the semis. #1 group a vs. #2 groub b - something like that
but i doubt ppl would want to do something like that :<
