when i was a new member, we picked our bigs. it was a slightly crazy process, where the 19 of us met with the president and 2 sisters not on the big list.

we went around and each said our 1st choice, those who said the same person then talked it out, or rock/paper/scissored it. there weren't too many of us who wanted the same person, so it worked out well. from what i remember we were all happy with our bigs and no one was really upset.

the next year we went to a matching and have been doing that now, the potential bigs and littles each wrote out our top 5 and the new member mom and president matched. again it works pretty well, but there are some unexpected pairings.
