The computer would do the first round of scheduling as normal, and if the chapter had fewer than 90 women, any women on the B-list who didn't have full schedules would then be added.

It would be a way for chapters to take a second look at a PNM who hadn't been their first choice, much the same way we encourage PNM's to take a second look at a chapter they ranked lower.
And that's exactly what the flex lists in RFM are... if a chapter doesn't do as well as historically then they will take PNMs from the plus flex list and issue more invitations... if a chapter does better than historically, then they won't invite PNMs from the minus flex list.

The flex lists happen every round? Shows you how out-of-date I am. I thought they were just used at the end, if bid lists were turned in before the number for quota is set.

With RFM, flex lists are asked for for every round. Minus lists are required to be provided, plus lists are not. Although, if a chapter is continually inviting all PNMs left in their pool, plus lists are kind of irrelevant.
