This group break will be conducted using a draft. That means, once we get five people wanting to be on this break, I will enter all names into a randomizer and it will pick the draft order. First name gets pick 1, 6, etc., second name gets pick 2, 7, etc, and so forth...

Once the list is created, members can then trade their spot to another member over the next 24 hours. After that time has passed, all members are locked into their pick position. Once you post interest in the break, you cannot back out because you are not happy with the pick you end up. If you would prefer to just have slot 4 or 5, you can post the slot you want and not be entered into the draw for the top spots.

Once the picks are locked, I will proceed with the break after the box has arrived. Hopefully, I can do it via video break. I will post the break here, along with scans if necessary.

To get in on this group break, you just need to reply to this thread stating that you are in. Remember, only the first five getting in can participate.

Are you 5 years old? If Enigma splits up the cards then they need to go out randomly. Otherwise we need to go thru the whole process.

If I split up the base, it will be done randomly (no preferences) once the RC has been picked...otherwise, we keep drafting...

Also, absolutely no need for the name calling...

Can I now just randomize the rest of the base? Group breaks really shouldn't be this difficult...lol In the future, I think I'll set it to where everyone sends me a preference list like tmoneywon did and I can manually blitz through the draft myself and post a recap... :)
