i also think that everyone taking a loss except for the winner is too drastic. i think it needs to actually be structured like a tourney for it to work.
step 1. pair up all people
step 2. match up teams who decide to work together, and leave the ones who want to fight their partner out of the team pairings.
step 3. set deadlines, rules, theme?, etc. for that round.
step 4. repeat.

i'm in as of now.
I thought of doing it that way other than I hate having to have one person sit out a round if it's odd, let alone a whole team.

in the event that theres an odd number of teams. why dont you just group up 3 teams against each other. two take a loss and one takes a win. that still leaves only 1 man out if the number of contestants is odd atm.
the only upside to "winner takes all, all others take a loss" is that the tounament will end heck-a lot faster than traditional tournament matchups.
