Is it just a numbers game? Since, traditionally (for whatever reason), guys drop out of the pledging period and so in order to maintain adequate numbers the org issues more bids than it intends to initiate?

we believe everyone has the potential to make it through pledging, but i made a mistake before when i said "if
they don't think you're the type..."
it usually is a couple members that will single the pledge out and make it harder to finish. most of the times the pledge drops, although there are a couple which have finished. in the end when you finish the pledge process, everyone's cool with eachother because of respect to initiates from members just for finishing.
and about the numbers, everyone from my chapter would like to see a 1:1 bid:initiate ratio, but that has only happened a couple times at a couple chapters, none in mine.
