I thought we were going to do a staggered 1, 14, 2, 13, 3, 12, sort of thing (that's obviously for the person who gets 1st pick round 1). I hadnt really thought it through if Im honest, but to my mind it sort of seems a bit fairer. We will end up having what, 15 rounds iirc, so realistically the first person only gets one advantage, and by that late stage of picking it shouldnt matter as it will essentially be your final back up.

Wat?
Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

Ok, Im drunk as a common Irishman (and they're all common, poor and ill-educated), but here goes with what I think I meanseded:
Say Vengeance gets drawn as 1. He has pick 1 in Round 1, then pick 14 in round 2, then pick 2 in round 3, then pick 13 in round 4, and so on. You meanwhile get pick 14 round 1. You then get pick 1 round 2, pick 13 round 3, etc. I have no idea if that works make sense, it's just what I guessed the draft system works by. I iz a silleh drunk.

Okay, it makes sense now. That's fairly freaking complicated, though!

As long as I don't have to remember and you tell me when my pick is... it actually might even things up some. It's certainly novel.

Does it makes you Brits feel smart to make things extremely complicated?
Actually i could care less which way you want to do it. And yes, you win.

That basically puts 26 picks between the guy drafting first and this 2nd pick and then 24 for this second 2 picks and 22 for this 5th and 6th pick. That is one hell of a way to handicap the number 1 pick for sure. I kinda think each round should be a random 1 - 14 so it will completely mix it all up.
