And so it goes on thru the entire pack of bid cards. And then over and over until all are matched or there is no way to match the remaining cards. Thre is a system for gridlock should it occur. Anyone who has access to the NPC MOI (Green Book) can look it up in there under Bid Matching. The computer programs now do this but they mirror this system.

This is something I don't quite understand. In the old system, did Annie Aardvark have a better chance of getting a bid to XYZ if they had all the PNMs who attended their preference rank them as number one than Zoe Zipper? Because XYZ would have reached quota way before they got to the letter Z?
