I don't think they would pick 1114 because that means they are banking on any floor pickup being left for the 16th pick (there won't be) or they have their pickup at 100% (which they may find risky). If 1114 is an alliance captain but ranked 4th or lower, 610 might pick them almost certainly anticipating them to decline and scorch the pick. I'm certain at that point the best floor loader on the board would go to them, and 1114 would be forced to pick a floor load that may not be of the consistent caliber 610 will get.

But I think we're in the fourth layer of this hypothetical right now so I'll just wait here for Wednesday at 2:30 to get here so I can be in the car to StL.
