How the Groups were chosen:
'
The Groups were randomly assembled based on
- Minimizing the number of Pods
- Minimizing the number of Guests in a Pod while providing new social interactions
- Matching the number of Guests to the size of the Yachts in the Pod
- Mixing Corinthians from different Fleets
- Making new connections between Corinthians
- Inspecting for compatibility
Peggy D'Alessandro, Excel random number function, AI, and a bit of consulting with the FUGAMA were all involved in this process.
If you like it — thank Peggy; if you don't like it — take a number (available for $10 each) and get in a long line forming at the stern of Onward…
Pod members are encouraged to play nice with their Corinthian Friends and communicate among themselves to:
- Select the host Yacht (the Alpha Whale of the Pod)
- Work out the menu for food and beverage details (Who brings what, where…)
- If you want to play around and make switches between Pods — beware, the wrath of the Anchorage Sea Monsters will likely visit upon you. You will also have the responsibility that the new arrangement gets put in an Excel .csv file suitable for publishing to all. Take it to Free Play Night (MMD - 3).
Details of the Pods for each night of Anchorage Madness can be found at:
