I believe the answer to Number 1 is yes.
The floor is -300% resistance iirc.
Not sure about the second question though ;x
.... I don't think anyone's ever run into that second scenario! XD
I'll have to try this in PvP or during a BAF sometime.. or maybe set up an AE arc with an enemy with only Confusion effects and see what happens.
My GUESS would be either A) nothing happens (teleport fizzles) or B) you still TP your team anyway. Confusion doesn't change the fact that you're on a team, just who you can target with attacks and who you can target with buffs. *shrug*
-STEELE =)
Allied to all sides so that no matter what, I'll come out on top!
Oh, and Crimson demands you play this arc-> Twisted Knives (MA Arc #397769)

I would say your team, that never changes irrespective of confusion. A confused foe doesn't become a part of your team.

That's the part that makes me question it.. While confused mobs will buff you and your team (and I'm sure the opposite could be true, you should be able to buff a mob while confused?), Team-TP works specifically on your team. Which doesn't magically change because you are confused.
I thought Team Teleport teleported all friendlies within 30ft. Admitedly I haven't actually experimented with it.
Remember though that Team Teleport is not the same as Assemble the Team. Team Teleport is a 30ft AoE version of Teleport, where Assemble the Team is a global version of Recall Friend that doesn't care where anyone is located.
Anyway if you actually have a character with TT you can create an AE mission with a mob that has Confusion as its only power, and try it.

Team teleport only teleports teammates, pets and npc allies assigned to you as a pet so I think they are right in saying it wouldn't work

Team TP, as said by others, only teleports teammates. That is, if you use Team Teleport at the market, only teammates nearby will be teleported, not anyone just standing around.|

So if you were confused, it'd either fizzle or you'd TP your team anyway.
That said, I think it should be changed to work in such a fashion. That's pretty much an irresistable PBAoE Worm Hole effect (minus the KB/stun).
Wouldn't that be nice? Getting confused and toggling on Group Fly and nerfing the enemy's ToHit if you're confused? That's a cool tactic! Would just need a self confuse to get the ball rolling. That actually sounds fun...and hey, you get to take pot shots at your team too.

the only problem with this tactic will be that they are actually removing the -tohit on group fly (yes this change is currently on beta server lol)
