The computer works so that it figures out if you have X number for quota and Y number for quota additions you will get Z number of total girls placed. It tries a variety of numbers to make sure the largest number of girls get placed while attempting to give every chapter quota. It is not consistent because each chapter has a different number of girls at their preference parties and the "leftover" girls will have attended different, inconsistent chapters. So if a chapter invited a lot of girls to preference they could theoretically end up with a lot more girls pledging. And then next year their numbers will probably be tighter so that it's more balanced out over time. This is how parity can happen over 2 or 3 years. Of course, at Alabama, none of the chapters are struggling so the numbers just blow up since girls don't drop out of rush when they don't get their first choice. Oh, if we could get the rest of the Greek world to work this way.
