I suppose due to probability, one (or a few) candidate(s) could end up with a disproportionately large amount of time to speak during the evening using your draw names from a hat, then draw from all names the next time(s) process. And you would have to figure out how to make sure no ones’s name does not get drawn at all.
However, limiting the number speaking each time is a great idea.
Will that solve the issue of not having questions regarding current, recent and important issues, though?
At least this would reduce the need to shout-over so many others at once! And if a candidate had prepared specific snarky one-liners for other specific candidate(s), this would reduce the likelihood they could uses them at all (why attack a candidate who is not on the stage with you?)

Thanks for your perspective.
How about putting headphones on everyone except the person getting the question?
