I pretty much do things solo with a buddy who helps here and there. I have my prep, cook times and all that pretty much down. But it would be nice to have someone share the expense, work load, test runs and fun. But to be a good team if more than just you everyone I think would need a roll that they could call their job so they focus 100% for that job/jobs.
But you can be a decent team solo, I think over the years I have done pretty good. As I have always been one who wanted to land on the best teams tables. Heck I have even tried to time it and walked up or waited on certain teams in hopes to land on their table. This in turn let me know where MY product stacked up against the best. I have lost some by doing this but I have had my fair share of winning a table against the best or being right there with them also.
My point is there is no magic number just everyone needs to be on the same page, same goal and stick to their job or task at hand. Also let others on the team stick to their task at hand and all will roll smooth.
