This is my suggestion for who should get tiny next:

The person who furthest West and close to Tiny.

So if two people are west of Tiny, the closest one wins. When people are all east of tiny pass it to the closest one. If people are on both sides, the West side gets it first.

Its not perfect but it would result in a somewhat orderly and understandable path across the USA from west to east. The shipping hops should be short, quick and cheap and keep the updates to the thread coming in. the map shouldn't cross itself too much.

Again, this is just a suggestion.

Tiny + Full Scale CAP 580 == BAD ASS!

I was gonna fly at the "grassy noll" where the phantom Kennedy assanator was, but I am afraid I might get arrested. My backup flying site is truly amazing and will give you a real taste of Texas.
