The way Washington's draw process works makes points pretty much useless. For instance Swakane Ram tag, 20 points = .09% chance to draw   -   1 point =  less than .001% chance to draw. So 20 years of applying gets you a .09% greater chance to draw than a person that applied for their first time ever.

You get a 90x greater change to draw then the first time applying... but your odds are still garbage at .09%

For oils, it’s like saying the 6’ tall guy has a way higher chance of getting hit by lightning than the 5’4” guy.

I’m 6’4” so that’s why I drew with 9 pts.

Well... this theory makes as much sense as any I have heard yet.  I'm only 5'6" and have never drawn a quality tag of any kind in 18 years. 

I'm calling my *&%ing congressman... >:(
