How does this number system work when you're applying as a group? Is each person in the group assigned different numbers, or is the entire group assigned one set of numbers?
I believe only the group leader will be assigned a number.

What's this talk of a "double drawing?"   ???

The applications are assigned some random numbers. The lowest number is then used to determine the order in which that application comes up. If your number is low enough, when your application is pulled there will still be permits left for one of the hunts you listed on your application, and bingo you just drew a permit. If not, you get to keep your points and hope for better luck next year.

That entire process is the "drawing." It's ONE drawing, not two. It's all computerized, of course. Would you guys rather they do it the old fashioned way and throw all the names in a hat and draw them out one at a time?
:yeah:  The draw is RANDOM...seems some folks are confused about what random means??  Can you imagine how long the "are results out yet" thread would be if they did it the "old fashioned way"  :chuckle:  :chuckle:

I say they go old school and do something like putting all applicants names on a wall of a monkey's cage based on number of points and then let the monkey throw his poo and whatever it hits will be the chosen names. After all, this whole permit draw game is a complete crap shoot anyway right?  :chuckle:
