How to round-robin-assign test cases of a test run to a pool

Helllo,
The scenario I am trying to implement, is having a pool of testers that try to complete a huge test suite's test run that will be recreated on recurring base. Testers have different availability and thus a round-robin-style "just give me the next available test run test case" without any managerial or click-around overhead. To clarify: I don't want to have to break down the test suite into smaller pieces that then have to be fix-assigned to one tester. Instead, whoever is available for testing shall just be able to easily pick up a test run test case as long as not all of one test run are completed. Right now, it seems two Testers can open the same test case of a test run and when both try to assign to themselves, the second will just overwrite the first assignment.
Any suggestions / ideas. Is that scenario possible with Testlink ?
Thanks a lot

Test cases can be assigned to several testers without overwrite assignments.
This in any case is not a solution for your requirement.
Anyway your requirement need to be written in a more detailed from in order to try to analise a solution
