The houses that are looking for 5 girls would be crazy to invite 200 girls to their preference party so that should let a lot of girls down fairly gently and allow them to focus on more realistic options.
Hopefully based on their RFM history they would have a reasonable expectation of how many girls they should invite, even if they aren't following RFM to the letter. And if houses are not being cool about the number of girls they're inviting, then Panhel would have to step in the following year. But I really think now that schools see the beauty of RFM they wouldn't do anything too out of whack.
And then do a bid match with an individual quota like what Nebraska and Indiana do.
Thoughts?

This is what we did 2 years ago and I think it would have worked out well here. Unfortunately for us because we only raised total by 5 or so (plus losing a chapter, which added spaces) it was still a mess because every woman still thought that they were getting a bid from their dream chapter, when dream chapter was only doing the partially structured rush as a formality and they already had the women they wanted picked out. I think it would have worked well for UF here though.
