I would write:
"to ensure that there are only five players"
this may be a po-tay-toe/ po-tah-toe debate.

Done. Thanks.

You say either and I say eyether,
You say neither and I say nyther;
You like potato and I like potaeto,
You like tomato and I like tomaeto;
So, if you like pajamas and I like pajahmas,
You say laughter and I say lawfter,
You say after and I say awfter;
You like vanilla and I like vanella,
You, say parilla and I say parella;
So, if you go for oysters and I go for orsters

Or, as Elmer Fudd would say:

You say eithew and I say eyethew,
You say neithew and I say nythew;
Eithew, eyethew, neethew, nythew,
You wike potato and I wike potaeto,
You wike tomato and I wike tomaeto;
So, if you wike pajamas and I wike pajahmas,
I'ww weaw pajamas and give up pajahmas. Oh, dat scwewy wabbit!
You say waughtew and I say wawftew,
You say aftew and I say awftew;
You wike vaniwwa and I wike vanewwa,
You, say pawiwwa and I say pawewwa;
So, if you go fow oystews and I go fow owstews
I'ww owdew oystews and cancew the owstews. Oh, dat scwewy wabbit!

Mark Padgett: What is going on with you today? Weird doesn't even begin to describe your posts. Should we be concerned? How many fingers am I holding up? Who is the president of the United States? Where are you? What day is today? Should we call 911? Should we break out the straightjacket?

How many fingers am I holding up?
Eleven (and that's not metric)

Who is the president of the United States?
Al Franken

Where are you?
Where are we all, really?

What day is today?
Second Tuesday next week.

Should we call 911?
Why - do you want to order a pizza?

Should we break out the straightjacket?
Why - is it in prison?

That's pretty funny. Next thing you'll be telling me is that Al Franken is a United States senator. Now that would be really unbelievable and very funny.
