An early debate like this can mean a lot to a candidate that is still unknown. It can put you on the national stage and get your name out there if you do well. That said, a debate with 10 people is going to mean very little speaking time for anyone. One with 18 people will mean even less time.
They have them all and have three nights of debates with 6 people in each debate. Just draw names to see who gets on which night.
