Computer errors can and do happen. So can human errors. There was a situation at my school where there were two PNMs with the same first and last name, and hence, consecutive PNM ID#s. ABC wanted to invite Susie Smith #1 back, but not Susie Smith #2... unfortunately, they cut the wrong Susie Smith after open houses. Susie Smith #1 approached ABC's front desk in tears - "Why wasn't I invited back?" - and ABC realized their error and hastily (with Panhel's ok) invited her in, so she attended part of a round 2 party. Long story short, Susie Smith #1 became a happy ABC.
Unfortunately, generally speaking, when a computer error occurs, no one will ever know it. Rhonda Rushee who gets PDQ instead of XYZ will assume that she was too low on XYZ's bid list to match to them; XYZ sisters will assume the same thing, or will assume that Rhonda listed PDQ first. Only in certain cases - like the legacy who listed her legacy sorority first and still matched to her second choice - would anyone know for sure that something went wrong.
