That is NOT how Bid matching works AT ALL so please stop spreading lies. A lower tier chapter cannot “steal” your bid. Each night, the chapters submit a list of the PNM’s they wish to invite back. Then the PNM’s ranks are used to determine their party lists- if PNM’s #1’s all invite her back, she goes to those parties. If 2 of her #1’s didn’t invite her back, then the computer searches to see if her #2 and #3 did. And so forth. For bid matching, the computer system will attempt to match the PNM with her top choice up to 3 times before she is matched with her second choice: 1. The computer sees if pnm’s #1 choice had her on their top bid list. If they do, she’s a match and gets a bid. 2. If she’s on their second list, the computer will try to match her AGAIN with her #1 choice. If she is #20 on the 2nd list and they fill to quota by #17, she won’t get a bid (yet). If she is #20 and they have to go to #24 to make quota, she gets a bid. It does NOT matter if the other chapter she Preffed had her on their first list. It’s not part of the equation at all. 3. If her top choice makes quota before her name is listed AND she maximized her options, she still has a chance to be added to her #1 choice as a Quota Additon. If she maximized her options and both houses make quota and are of roughly equal chapter size, she can still be matched with her #1 choice. If she suicided, she would be ineligible for QA and would go bidless. The ONLY way you get your 2nd choice is if the 1st choice chapter fills to quota and both chapters are not considered equals when placing QA’s. Then she would go to her 2nd choice. Almost every chapter gets at least a few QA’s each year so that shows that there are girls who don’t Bid match with Kappa or ChiO or DG who still get placed with their 1st choices. Something like 70-80% of PNM’s are placed with their 1st choice.
