I do not make those suggestions for myself but to answer to the Randy's 
question :

"what do you suggest would make CQ WW more interesting for those not bordering the Atlantic Ocean?"

So in addition to 1 point per QSO, making the US states, VE provinces and JA call areas some new multipliers would provide multipliers for NA in the same way that European have already multipliers inside Europe and at the their East.
That would also provide more multipliers for Asian.

The benefits for us in VE2 should be more traffic especially during the second half of the night when all the bands are closed to Europe. Currently there is very few traffic from central USA and West coast during that part of the night and I think this is related to the poor interest for those stations to stay awaken related to the 0 pointers and 0 multipliers inside USA.
