Play balance is prety much as simple as it sounds, set ups are created using historical criteria, and from their using the available planes, then we consider the Balance issue and debate the set up, Typicaly play balance is given the most weight increating a set up.
Some set up's are less balanced then others and the Balance in any set up is obviously the subject for much debate. Many things have been tryed in the time the CT has been up and runing, in fact many of the things players ask about trying have indead been done in the past, those that we avoid repeating are the ones that met with bad results.
Most of the reasioning questions are invarably answered howeaver they are not always answered to the satisfaction of some, regreatably when a set is reran many of the same old questions arise and often the answers remain the same.
Some set up's are also rarely if ever ran again, those are obviously the ones that met with bad results.
Everything in the CT is a compromise, regreatably not every compromise is one everyone would have or agree with.
Each Staffer is responsable for his own set up they bear sole responsabality for it's content, If I had my choice each CT player would be very Happy with each set up I make or sponser, howeaver I am aware that this is not, nor shall it ever be the case.
As a CT Staffer I nead to make dischions on the content of the set up's, I beleave first and formost in creating "Balanced " set up's ones that offer a good fighting chance on all sides, everything is considered in this endevore, granted we dont always get it right the first go around but over time we have goten better at it on the whole, this has in part contributed to the increased numbers the CT has in it on the whole, their are other contrubuting factors of cours, the larger AH player base is likely the bigest single factor.
