I meant that with the rule as written now (with the lack of clarity...two different things in two different sections)...the pledges were pledged after formal rush in August. The chapter closes in late September. According to that effed up "primary recruitment period" business, they could not pledge another NPC group until next August. They could, however, pledge a local group immediately. In a situation where the locals and nationals are rushing together and really have no day to day difference, this would be all sorts of negative for ALL the NPCs.
The point of all this is that they need to clarify that they are NOT talking about chapter closures in the section Titchou quoted - i.e. they need to say "if an INDIVIDUAL'S pledge is broken" or something of the like.
As far as asking a group to hold you over if you're worried about the chapter closing, the chapter might be perfectly ok and understanding and super willing to do that. The national entity might see things differently.
