Are there some guidelines or rules for this activity? We heard about this through the grapevine, and thought it worth trying at least once.

This is by no means the be-all, end-all on drafting lego sets. I would love to hear from other clubs on how they have done this and their suggestions. I would probably be willing to update it and/or write an additional piece if there was an interest or lots of new information brought up.
