I am normally a big fan of seeing starts before pick, as it mixes up the valuations from game to game and makes each game's snake pick less predictable.
If we do the random leaders with up to two vetoes thing instead, that reason doesn't apply. Therefore I guess I am against seeing starts before pick, for variety and simplicity, but not strongly so. (Also this isn't a vote, just discussion.)

Oh and I think the suttree and krill suggestion of vetos is good. Vote for that.

Hey, Noble, did you join any team yet? Maybe team lurker? If not, don't you want to lurk my thread? I'm in the mood for some  . I promise that my thread will have the highest number of misspelled words ever.

Hey guys, just wanted to let you know my valiant vanquishers in pbems 45 and 46 have invited me to join them as a dedlurker. Obviously I have made "I'm reading!" posts in a couple people's threads, but they hadn't posted anything relevant to the game as of yet, so I trust that'll be okay.
Edit: Also, why does Suttree's thread have a star next to it for me?

I would like to recommend (hopefully w/o coming across as a dick) that some of the solo players with less experience consider merging their teams.
I don't mean the regular solos that have shown they can do it - I'm thinking of dtay, suttree specifically, and possibly williamlp and maybe even jowy as well). having a teammate takes so much pressure off of you to play the turns (believe me, there were times in pb8 where I was able to take 3-4 weeks off the game, and Lewwyn did the same - we both appreciated that). And it wouldnt hurt to have 16-17 teams rather than 18.
Anyway, just a suggestion, feel free to ignore if you are confident you won't have any troubles  .
Please don't go. The drones need you. They look up to you.
