Should be fun! Looking forward to it.
While it looks like we have critiqued Mike's actual procedure, I do love the idea of having an outlined procedure, so I am going to try and summarize what seems to be a quick, fair process.
1. Order will be based on names out of a hat, if you aren't present when your name is pulled, your name goes back in the hat. Not necessary at all, but it is kind of fun (like a raffle) and it takes almost no time at all.
2. We measure BF the quickest way possible. Take the width of a truck bed if you are in a truck and count layers like Ken suggested. That is fine by me. People who don't have trucks will have to do something slightly different, but that should be relatively easy to do. This should help keep things moving quickly.
3. No rejecting or reserving boards in any way. Random chance will dictate your fate. This is a change from what almost everyone agreed to earlier, somewhat out of nowhere, but I am completely fine with it. See, I'm not 100% anal retentive all the time!
3. If there is a shortage, we will determine a process with some randomness (and time efficiency) to even things out. The spreadsheet will help make that process quick if it comes to that.
4. If there is extra, we distribute it based on shares of the expected 1700 BF.
5. Group Picture. No pictures, It didn't happen!
6. We take all of Phil's wood and replace it with pine 2x4's from Home Depot. (just kidding)
