I'm not currently working on any sets that are generally as widely available as T206s, but I have thought about how I would tackle the daunting task if I ever began a journey on the set and came up with the following thoughts;

Break it down into subset/smaller projects. I think by team is a pretty efficient way to break it down into manageable goals, by position is another option though I have not heard of many people doing it by position it might be an interesting way to break it down.

My other thought would be to set quite strict requirements on condition/grade for my set. I think this might keep the thrill of the hunt exciting as I search for cards that are VG with great centering for example.

Another final thought, there are groups/lots of T206s in most of the auction house auctions. Buying lots, picking out what you want to keep then selling or trading the remainders off especially in the B/S/T adds another layer of excitement to the journey I think as opposed to just obtaining cards.
