This was brought up on team server as well, but the general issue is that a lot of people play to play with their current friends, and they're not interested in splitting it up to play with unknowns.
The bonus of doing it on team server is that you can have set 5 man teams, and the smaller teams require less organization. Larger would be fun too, but depends on interest.
It could be neat to have one Boxcar "alliance" for everyone in the draft, but then have member specific forums for each team. That way, everyone can still be together for discussing in the forums, but still have privacy. The other benefit would be that it could be set up once in boxcar and then only forum groups would need to be altered if there are continuing draft sets.
I understand were you are coming from. But you wouldn't be limited just to this server. Everyone is already playing with their friends. This would be a chance to meet new people and try a to change things up a bit. I thought about the team server, but it would be more fun with more people per alliance. A leader may be tempted to draft their friends, but if you really want to win, maybe now is your chance to try to find the best players.
