I can name 20 clans that I've personally seen significant involvement from in the past six months.
On the other hand, if three clans posit their voice into one single person, that counts as three clans to me and could end up matching your proposal of about ten representatives.
If you really think it'll work, and the devs feel okay with it, I'll organize it. As I said before, if everyone can agree on something, whether some final conclusion or even just the rules of this exercise, I'll support it. But let me be clear that I do not want to have a simple majority stepping on the toes of a significant minority (an example of an insignificant minority would be generic CoD fanboy in the corner shouting to replace all maps with *insert copyright infringement here*). I want a clear consensus that comes just short of stealing the thunder of Wikipedia's odd democratic style.

- Allow for more map testing
- Inspire more people to make maps in order to get onto the map pool.

Then there is the side of creating a "season"
