Appropriate ECL for 10 players?

[Theo R Cwithin]

If there are any aspiring DMs among your players, this might be a good time to recruit one as an assistant, too. Then you can quickly and easily manage split-party encounters (ie, two nearly separate lower-ECL encounters) -- encounters with two bbegs, terrain that physically divides the battlefield, hazards/traps that occupy some PCs while others are fighting, and so on.

I agree with the orc withins suggestion, the most sensible thing to do is for larger groups to split into to groups each either with their own DM or one DM and an assistant DM.
