Are you a legacy?

The legacy GLO couldn't meet quota without considering her, unless she'd matched to another org.

Say Suzy is a legacy to XYZ and also preffed ABC. She lists ABC then XYZ on her pref card. She's on XYZ's first bid list because she's a legacy, but she happens to be dead last on ABC's second bid list. (Somebody's gotta be.)

During bid matching, ABC makes quota before Suzy's name could be moved over to the first bid list. Once ABC makes quota, an attempt will be made to match Suzy to her second choice, XYZ. Because she's on XYZ's first bid list, she'll match there.

(I hope this makes sense. I haven't had my coffee yet...)

I see. So, Greek Life always gives legacies every opportunity to pledge their legacy GLO before their legacy GLO can fill quota. This is all so fascinating . . . but confusing!
