About the Mystic tancho showas

Ok here is the deal....I've had ALOT of pm's and emails about them. Especially about 2 of them. Sooooo originally I thought you could just use one of your picks to get one as I didn't figure anyone would still want 3 shiros and then an additional tancho showa. Turns out many of you want 3 shiros and 1 tancho. Problem with that is I don't know of a fair way to say who gets which one. So here are my solutions. You guys tell me which you want to go with.

The original plan- Substitute for a shiro and pick it using one of your regular turns

Another plan- We do a lottery for just the tanchos. Let me know if you want one. I draw your name and put it on the list. Because there are so few tanchos you don't need to pay ahead of time (that way if the one you want gets picked you can just drop out). Please discuss this amongst yourselves and I'll check back to see what the consenus is.

For those of you NOT wanting a tancho please disregard this thread and just let the people that want one discuss it. Thanks

Dang
Ya fergit that some of us ain't got a big honkin lake to put a bunch of fish in cuz we already done it...
i like the lottery idea as it'll get the Tanchos outta the way, but how bout this...if you enter the lottery for a tancho and git the choice ya want then you can drop your last Shiro pick?
BTW ya didn't mention how much the Tanchos will cost?

You think they should be more or less than the Shiro?

Ahhh... nevermind! They are all the same price ($75).

Kind Regards,
Bill

Jim, stick to the original plan where 1 tancho will take the place of an SU. If there are any tancho left after everyone have choosen then they're up for sale and you can figure out what to do then.

I like your lotto idea. If I would have been smart enough to buy 3 Shiro, I wouldn't mind giving up one but I NEED more than 1 Shiro.

After the lotto, if there are any Showa left, throw them into the regular lottery.
