Collective nouns: A ________ of planners
From Cyburbian Tom R: Did you know that a group of frogs is called an army or a colony? Me neither. Here is a link that give more names for groupings of critters than should be allowed. Anyway, what is a group of planners? An obfuscation? A stonewall? Others?
A Plethora of Planners. Always did like alliteration.
I like alliteration, too.
A pulchritude of planners.
A passion of planners.
A platter of planners.

-- an exaction of planners
[from the public's eye]
-- an involvement of planners
[if you don't want any more]
-- a maximum of planners
[if they're just enough in the picture]
-- a minimum of planners
[and if you want some incentive]
-- a bonus of planners
[or if you're more pessimistic]
-- a setback of planners
May I humbly submit:
A violation of planners.
