No, bad game design isn't luck of the draw. That's what irritates me. If the pick had been random or they did another random swap, I wouldn't be so frustrated. By taking the random element out, they made a huge mistake that they failed to correct.Yeah, but that's the game. Part strategy, part social, part sportiness, and part luck of the draw.
So now they are reduced to week after week of JLP practically begging them to do something and creating a reason to send people to maybe find an idol and switch up the game.
