I like random team draft order and Hawks suggestion of LD lets you know who is left when it is your turn. Perhaps a small difference in HH draft but does keep teams from knowing all teams to start which I kind of like. I would also recommend team leaders draft to help speed things up for LD and the overall daft

I agree wit JF. Declaring teammate enemy is a fair use of deception; no declaration of ally or neutrality outside your team. As to the other point: teams should remain anonymous...part of the fun is trying to figure out who the teams are

So recapping:
Absolutely no communication outside of your own team Teams are completely anonymous, you will only know your own team composition No ally declarations, trades, or HC issues that help anyone outside of your own team An enemy declaration of your own teammate is OK for the purposes of subterfuge Once declared, no re-declaring an enemy neutral or ally UNLESS it's your own teammate (i.e. you're giving up the subterfuge) Since we're trying to maximize secrecy in this game, I propose that all HC issues should be secret ballot EDIT: Also, no drops before T20. Since it's a random draw for teams A-D, and we're going with prior selections being known (and LD, please note that you should randomize the list order of prior selections when you disclose them, and not just list the picks in order, as that would give away the secrecy), I went ahead and tweaked the 10th and 11th picks, so that the first team is slightly less disadvantaged, and since the last teams to pick will have the benefit of knowing who's on the playing field. 1) A (12 points) 2) B (11 points) 3) C (10 points) 4) D (9 points) 5) C (8 points, total 18) 6) D (7 points, total 16) 7) B (6 points, total 17) 8) A (5 points, total 17) 9) D (4 points, total 20 points) 10) A (3 points, total 20 points) 11) B (2 points, total 19 points, one less total point for the benefit of the second-to-last pick) 12) C (1 point, total 19 points, one less total point for the benefit of the last pick) Team A: Picks 1st, 8th, 10th Team B: Picks 2nd, 7th, 11th Team C: Picks 3rd, 5th, 12th Team D: Picks 4th, 6th, 9th

PS: Welcome back Will! I assume that you have spent all of this time developing a killer opening strategy  PPS: JF, who do I have to call for a copyright on my name?

Ha!
So captains for LD to contact for selections are Hawk, JF, Mauler, and me?

sounds good. Maybe best to just send draft rules and captains emails. Some will may pick different knowing who was taken by the first 3 teams
