Results of yesterday's draft

Julian, Chris, Me.
Winner: Julian.
Not sure whether we kept track of 2nd place for the first game, but we
did play a 2nd game.
2nd game winner: Me.
Conclusion: Draft with 3 people in a pod is in many ways much more
interesting than draft with 5 or 6 people in a pod. We should favor 3
and 4 person draft pods, including dividing 6 people into two pods.
We drafted 7 packs, btw; Chris added TW to the ones originally
announced. I therefore owe Chris a TW pack, since I didn't pack one.

It's the opposite. Smaller pods means your picks matter, because you're not just picking a single card, but also grooming the pack for your next pick. Larger pods are much less random/arbitrary, since you get much less information and have much less influence on what the other players in your pod draft and/or what comes back.
