First person on the list got their pick of any avatar, family member or RBG, on the list. When they were done, their chosen avatar was removed, and the second person picked. Rinse and repeat until all 30 players had chosen, at which point all extra RBGs were killed off to bring the avatars back down to 30. It actually worked pretty well and didn't take very long at all.
