It didn't matter if the PNMs were in alpha order. Chapters had a 1st bid list & a second bid list. It mattered where Penny PNM was listed on which bid list. If Penny PNM listed XYZ 1st on her bid card and she was anywhere on their 1st bid list, she was matched with XYZ.

After XYZ's first bid list matched to quota, then they didn't go to their 2nd bid list. If they still had spaces available, it got a little more complicated... which I leave to someone else! Alphabetical order still didn't matter, though.
