Another thing that this whole draft hasn't really talked about is what happens after. If it were to happen, have you really thought about the next few weeks, because I don't really see a lot of good happening. First, the people opposed to the draft will leave, you can't pretend like they won't. After that, how will the squads truly be put together? Mixing skill levels doesn't sound like it would work too well. Imagine someone like me - that casual, non-caring type - being put into a squad with the hardcore players - the ones who sweat their faces off to be the best they can - to 'even the skill'. I'd be like that 10 year old cousin that your mom just said you have to play with on Halo, even though you're right in the middle of a 4-player LASO run. One of three things will happen:
1. You're forced to switch out one of your friends playing LASO for me. I die a lot, I get frustrated, you all get frustrated. Nobody has fun.
2. You lower the difficulty to easy. It is ridiculously straightforward and you're no longer enjoying yourself, but at least I won't go complain to your mom.
3. You give me a controller that's not connected and pretend that you're all playing with me, even though I'm obviously not, but from your mom's perspective, I'm still playing with you, so it's all good. (It's not)
Now translate that to the FC squad draft and you get my point...
