Part of that is the time gap that happened in the real world between chapters. Between the first wedding attempt and the Tau Ceti battle, we had Manhunt, Starcrossed... Characters like Korra and Tali'Shukra, who have both been given very important parts in Gryphs modern life, not to mention Corwins, didn't even exist at the time of Wedding Attemt The First. The same applies to a large portion of the current set of Duellists at DSM.

I certainly think that's helped get things feeling a bit random, and possibly in need of a bit of creative juggling.
