So heres a few of my thoughts.
Teams of 4 makes the most sense based on one of each strat and deployment each round and the space restrictions of the venue especially in terms of how the venue is laid out, more or less would result in teams being split onto multiple rows
In terms of encounters in advance, you know every strat and scheme appears in every round, honestly i thought it was nice to get the whole weekends pools at the start, in previous team events ive been in you got the pools 15 minutes before each round, i personally like that there is no element of who has been able to practice a specific pool the most.
Bag o tools will be used over longshanks as the people running the event are the people that are responsoble for bag o tools existing in the first place.
The TOs did get feedback from participants at the end of the last event and there was less requests for playing with clocks than there was people happy to not play with clocks. I would be interested to know how many people wont participate without clocks vs wont participate with clocks, as im personally in the latter even as a fast player that regularly finishes with 30+ minutes to spare i wont spend large amounts to travel and play the game in a format i dont enjoy.
Sportsmanship was abused in a couple of ways at the last event and the TOs have confirmed that both of them will be addressed for next time around.
Honestly the TOs have laid out how the event is going to be ran, and highlighted the changes that are being made from last year, whilst i understand the desire to provide constructive criticism im not sure that consistently rehashing the same things after it has been confirmed that the matters in question are closed (ie, no clocks, no SoS) is for the best as it will undoubtedly lead to a loss of enthusiasm on both the parts of the organisation team and potential participants.

I wouldnt imagine so as the vast majority of events ran by uk TOs dont use clocks, also 2h15 (all set up included in this) has been standard for almost all the events ive been to since the start of m3 and the majority of games at those events have finished naturally inside that time. There is also 15 minutes before each round for players to be assigned tables etc which can be used to create game in the app pick crews and start taking models out.

So something I think alot of people are missing is that @Maniacal_cackle isn't suggesting this takes over as THE format to play, rather that this format is something that people can use for more casual events and games. If you are in a gt or similar ultra competitive event then you aren't gonna use this format, want a casual pickup game and don't want to be curbstomped by nexkids for the 3rd time in a row, or want an event where simply having fun and flipping cards is more important than this format is great as an every now and then.

Irish. Mac is Scottish mc is Irish the shortening to me didn't take off in Scotland
Thats great an all but in the books mcmourning is scottish, as is myranda who is his niece.
Also whilst the contraction of mac to mc is more prevelant in Ireland it is also common in Scotland and from an etymological there is no difference between the names.

Well alot of people didnt realise there was no clocks until a few days before the event as they assumed there would be clocks despite there being zero reference to clocks in any of the material, i also know that there were some players that refused to take part because multi masters werent allowed, just as there would be players that would refuse to take part if multi masters were allowed
Any information gathered after an event is likely to be skewed towards that event, but from the admittedly small sampling of a clocked event i have previously ran, there was several players that wouldnt attend clocked events in the future, and none that wouldnt attend non clocked events.
Realistically there won't be a player pack everyone is happy with, yes some people want to play on clocks, that's their preference, but the tournament organiser has made it clear that this event will not be using clocks, if players arent willing to play without clocks, or multi masters this event isnt an event that they are willing to play in.
