Team games DO take a lot of effort to coordinate. When we were doing NvV1, that game devoured every second of my free time. It can be a bit of a chore getting all that communication done each turn. The more experienced players tend to play very close to their limit in games already, and adding a bit time intensive team game on top of all that could easily be more than most people could handle. The job of a team captain on top of that, can really be quite stressful. So it takes a certain amount of dedication, not to mention free time, to really fill the job. Kind of like being an admin .
