From Pref Night to Bid Day: What happens?

I *think* it's easiest to understand in terms of alphabetical order for logistics; what sort of chaos would ensue if there was no systematic method to manage all those names? Let's see... throw all the names into a hat, pull out a name at a time, shout it out, and see who has the PNM listed and where? Oh that would be a LOT of fun.

Alphabetically speaking: Amy Aardvark might be first in the PNM list, but her first choice (ZZ) may have her as number 40 on their second list; and Amy's second choice (CC) might have her as number 23 on their first list. So Amy goes to CC and not ZZ, right?

Laura Legacy might or might not trump Amy, depending on each GLO's legacy policy. Just sayin'... and I don't want to get any further into details. Or I might get thrown into the Violet Volcano.

Depends on quota and how many of ZZ's top choices chose them. If quota is 39, but one of the women on ZZ's first list matches elsewhere, Amy moves onto their first list. Her choice (ZZ over CC) trumps the fact that CC wants her more than ZZ does.
