The popular PNM will be fine whether she knows that her least favorite houses invited her back or not; it's the cut ones I think we ought to be worried about.

When I went through, I only had 3 houses out of 11 to go back to on the second day. It was rough for me to know that other girls got invited back to all the houses, but it was not made public at all. The accept/decline was pretty private, and no one really would know how many parties I was going to if I didn't tell them.
ETA:
I don't really think it's such a good diea for PNMs to rank the chapters. Especially after only one day, the girls don't really know enough about the chapter to know how well they will fit in there. I think way too many girls will just list the well-known "popular" chapters first even though they might not fit there at all.
And we all know that since those "best" chapters are in the most demand, they have the most choice over WHO they give bids to.
I would hate to see so many girls just list the big houses first, and then get cut from them and be very disappointed.
My question:
Do the chapters SEE these rankings before they make their cut choices? Because if they do, then some chapters might cut girls who put them near the bottom, and it could cause more girls getting cross-cut because they have listed those same "big" chapters first.
I'm SO sorry if this doesn't make sense. If it doesn't, I will try to clarify.
