So, a hundred of us show up bright and early to play our first PFS Organize Play session at GenCon. How are players distributed? Is it random, giving us the hilarious opportunity for a party of four sub-optimized but flavorful clerics, or better yet, four 1st level wizards , or is it like, "All the clerics stand over there, all the fighters over there" and then the DMs pick up like we're playing Sandlot baseball?
I'm curious, because I want four sub-optimized but flavorful clerics.

hmmm, i wonder how that would work. aren't most gamer types used to being picked last when the sandlot baseball teams were chosen? how would we react to being chosen first?
"no, sammy! we had to take the d&d geek last time!"

From my experience with RPGA Living City, usually the Marshalls first let you self select into groups (That's what you're supposed to do while waiting for the Marshall to show up). Any leftovers are grouped together randomly.
Josh addressed this a little on another thread. It sounds like the plan is to keep anyone who comes as a group together as a group. Otherwise he's planning on dividing up by role (healers, fighters, etc.) and trying to put together workable parties. Living Greyhawk musterings where always a bit hectic - best thing is to ask around as people gather - call out your class/level and see if any forming group will have you. It's a bit like the NY stock exchange for a short time.
