Any chance of picking the sets up sooner than in the next few weeks? If we wait 2 weeks to get the sets then another 2-3 weeks (at minimum?) to sort, we are looking then at not starting until close to June, and not finishing until September or something

I know you've done this once before, so maybe you already know this, but my personal experience is that the fastest way is to sort all of the "Bag #1" first, then move on to "Bag #2", etc. If Bag #1 and Bag #2 have elements in common, you'll have to consolidate, but it usually is pretty minimal, in that regard. Good luck, and keep us posted!

If 3 at a time works better for you, go for it, but when we draft at LUG meetings we do all 10-12 sets at once. Just makes it that much faster to pick out all of the same parts. A wide, flat box with no flaps (like a flat of soda would come in) works great for spreading things out without losing anything off the edge of the table.

I must admit when I read the suggestions these are all good points to bring to my next LUG meeting where we are doing a draft too.

Yes when you have 4-8 people sorting, it can get done in like 20 min . With the wife and I doing it we can generally get done in a couple nights. This time we are getting a table we can sort at though to save our backs. Need a second table at the lego area in our house anyways so its a good excuse

Sadly due to recent car issues I won't be able to participate in the draft. I tried to think of every way possible to do the draft but the bill isn't going to pay itself. So I'm formally backing out.
