A possible suggestion, for those teams that get stuck with only 2 pilots, is that they be forced to take 3 ships, meeting the PBR requirements. This would mean that one of the 2 must take 2 ships and control both. This is harder for that team to do, rather than fly a 2v2 or 2v3. The team with the 3 pilots gets the advantage of having 3 pilots for 3 ships. This may be a better solution for when a team, or even 2 teams, show up with only 2 pilots. It would also mean we would not need to "borrow" other pilots.
