They start separately and in tabletop scenario, yes they should all pass at the same time and stay separately. In our scenario since we don't all pick at the same time and pass at the same time, they tend to bunch up. As per usual, all 4 end up together. At this point might as well keep them together going forward. There is an advantage to being able to see all packs at once such as should I grab this ship now without knowing if another is coming but if you have all 4, you can skip one ship knowing you can grab the other ship. Luckily we all will end up with this same advantage.

Attention, tributes, attention...

The Aquamarine Pod has finished drafting and I believe the Diamond Pod is working their way through the second set of draw deck / dilemma packs, so we can post the Round 1 pairings. Please try to get your match played within the next week and a half-ish, and if we finish ahead of April 3rd I will post the Round 2 pairings early. Per the tournament software's random generator, here are our first matches:

Round 1:
Maggie vs. Mathew - TIE
Kris vs. Adam
Julius vs. Georgio
Remo vs. Steve
Christopher - DROP

Good luck! And may the odds be ever in your favor...

At last posting, I had send all of Diamond's packs to Maggie who had said she would hold until she had them all and I assume by now they have been picked and passed to Julius and perhaps on to Remo. Can any of you 3 confirm the status?

Kris, not that I am complaining, but last tourney you paired the 2 pods against each other first round and this time you have all 5 Aquamarine and 3/4 of Diamond playing with the Bye going to a Diamond. Shouldn't the pairings be AvD and the Bye going to the extra A or did you randominze the first round pairing this time?

As stated, this was entirely random. I was just as surprised as you were how it spit it out, but that was what came up. If it matters, Christopher will be receiving the Round 2 BYE as he will be out of the country on vacation that week.

Christopher has informed me he has to drop from this gig for personal reasons, so @jadziadax8 will instead play @Professor Scott in Round 1.

@LORE have you heard from @Clerasil ToB. Diamond packs have stalled for over 48 hours and we still have at least another round to go on them.

I'm tired of waiting on these packs. I'm just going to play with the cards I have. Steve, you ready?
