I think David's remarks are right on target...a sort of 'guided randomness' to balance the pools is probably in order. Certainly splitting the entries of multiple-entrants is reasonable in round one, and while I hadn't thought about board style or other factors his suggestions are rooted in good thought. Fergus's earlier comment about picking five from each initial pool instead of three is also a good observation.
