Suggestion - Tournament directors to override teams by order

I'm participating in the tournament, Fight together, die alone. I suppose it is possible that the tournament organizer did not know of some trick to accomplish this, but he was unable to successfully arrange randomized teams because everybody was screwing up and joining in the wrong order. After some frustration, he abandoned the effort and allowed us to make our own team, which I believe sort of ruined the whole idea of fighting with a stranger - luck of the draw.

Is there a way for tournament organizers to force certain teams, overriding the bit about joining order? If not, wouldn't it be a good idea to allow for this?

Currently there is not a way to override certain teams, however, hopefully sometime in the future there will be a system in place where you can join any of the teams in a team game, and not just join in order and hope for the best.

We'll see if it ever gets done though. :)

The organizer could always only send out the password to one team at a time. I know that some of the organizers do this already.

Yep, that's what a majority of tournament organizers do.
