Here's my plan, to be more explicit:
I'm going to wait until Wednesday morning. If nobody drops or joins, we'll have our 12 and I'll draw draft order.
I would like to try drawing for order choice, and will do so unless someone objects. What this means that instead of randomly drawing for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc...I draw for the order in which people choose their slot. IE: if your name comes up first, you can just pick which slot you want, since you may very well prefer 4th to 1st, or 6th, or whatever. This is exactly as fair and random as the old way, but gives people more opportunities for strategy and skill expression and all that...but all the same, I won't do it if even a single person objects in the next couple of days.
If we do do that, people would need to choose their slots pretty quickly after, but I can PM/ping people directly and if they take more than a day or so we can just slot them into the next-highest available slot, IE: the old system, for their turn at least.
