This is like that movie where people are allowed to murder people for 12 hours.

Alright, I got some PMs, but they're all from people who are not Dom

Somebody send me a PM with a pick. I want to feel involved!

If anybody wants to buffer any picks, you can send them to me and I will fill them in when appropriate, if I remember.

Nice colors. Is this supposed to be an Arya-themed deck?

No, he doesn't see. SHOW IT TO HIM!

Just do the same thing with 6 cards taken per pack instead of 4. You'll get 36 picks, with 6 rounds of 6 packs. (6 x 6 x 10 = 360 cards seen). Alternatively you could... I started this sentence a while ago and I don't know what it's about anymore. Oh, make 24 15-card packs and discard...

Yes, time for an unmoderated color alignment flamewar. DreamPaint, I like you, win or lose.

Eric, when you going to give me them sweet, sweet edit rights?

In your Mono :g: deck?

I believe there's a package 'biasedUrn' that deals with this: http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/BiasedUrn/BiasedUrn.pdf I've never used it, but I think that stuff is out there. Can't wait til you guys start drafting hate cards.

Also, I am moderately surprised that Eric and I ended up on the same number. Are you secretly a statistician, Eric?

Welcome! I think this is a good idea. The biggest downside about Tenchester was that it took forever, and this should speed things up by about 4x (roughly), while adding in some of the signaling that you find in normal drafts. As for your method of making the piles, it seems fine enough...

Uh, this gets into other weird assumptions that I'm not entirely comfortable with. I don't think mulligan rules for such are so clear cut, nor do I think tossing any 7 without a combo piece is advisable. Technically you can do the math telescopically, giving him 10 cards seen with a mulligan...

I got 21.88%. So that seems accurate. Here's my reasoning, let me know if any of this sounds wrong. We have 4 "successes", 36 misses, and are drawing 11 cards without replacement. This puts us in Hypergeometric territory. Our outcome of "drawing at least one of each part" can be...

Because I don't actually have a good idea for how to program that.

I mean, it doesn't have to be an app. It could just be a person sorting through things to keep things going in a tidy manner. Like, my next 3 picks are: Lightning Bolt Tarmogoyf Burning-Tree Emissary Alert me if any of these are trumped.

Okay, I'm not super invested in this, but how important is it that people make their picks sequentially? Could it be sped up by having people submit multiple rounds and then resolving conflicts? Or is that dumb. Also, if you guys could occasionally post visual spoilers of your picks so far in...
