Basically, how I do the random boosters is I presume 1 case (20 Boosters, though I know BM and GSX would be different).
In a case, there will (generally) be 1 Chase, 6-odd Super Rares, and the rest are regular boosters. Some are different, for instance ASM would have 2 chases a case.
So, I roll 1d20 per case. In the instance of ASM, 19-20 would be a Chase configuration, 13-18 would be a Super Rare, and 1-12 would be a Rare only. Then, it gets trickier. For ASM there were 14 common figures. I rolled 2d14 Per booster, 2d13 for the Uncommons and 1d13 for the Rares. In instances of Primes and figures like 001 Spider-Man, I rolled a dice after the fact and determined which figure was in that slot. I guessed that Primes were 50/50 in that slot, though it's probably more like 33/66.
For me, I'm going to go with 1 Galactic Guardians, 1 GSX, 1 ASM and a CW.

Also, my apologies to Aranatta. I sent the rolls to him via email, mine as well (so he can confirm). As far as rarity goes, there was quite some disparity

Can anyone think of a reason we can't have multiple games going on simultaneously? I can think of reasons that you wouldn't be able to play the same person simultaneously, but otherwise...?

Does that create any problems with Ranking? I am Rank 1, playing against 2 other Rank 1's simultaneously - I win one, then lose the other 2 days later. I assume that just knocks me back down to Rank 1.
We may just want to limit the number of simultaneous games (to 2 or 3?) to prevent too much confusion, but I guess since you have to stick with the same team and rank confers no inherent advantages, there's not really an issue with multiple games that I can see now that I look at it...

The simplistic beauty of this concept (that I had almost a year ago), is that it's so incredibly fluid. Anyone can join any time, there are no seasons, there are very little obligations, and we have a LOT of room to experiment. So, we do have a really nice opportunity to play around with rules and such, and see how things go...in lieu of that...
I challenge DarkCorsair to a challenge of darkness and such!

Now we must kung fu fight! I accept your challenge, though I am afraid of the dark!
Do you think we must use the same kung fu styles, or do we pull whatever we want from the same pool for each match? Presuming victory/no loss)?
Hmm... a good question. Given that we'll have 4 whole boosters of figures, I'd be down with the flexibility to build within the 4 boosters for each fight. I get the "same team the whole way though" idea, but I have a lot of pieces that I may want to use. Ultimately I could go either way, but with a slight leaning toward allowing rebuilds within the pool. Adds some strategy challenge in that I have to build against your boosters, not just a single team.

I think maybe you should, it could cause problems if you field 2 different teams and win both matches since you have to keep the same team through all the rankings.
