Are you talking about last years results? The previous years results are all on the WDFW website except last years and they said they will be out in August.
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

Of course you could always lower the amount of choices to 2 and then you'd see just how many people really want to put in for premium hunts. Another way would be to increase the multiplier then you might have a chance to draw every 20 years but its still all luck. I drew with 2 points my Friends son drew with none my wife still has 16 points we only put in for good tags. I guess that's why people gamble.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

She was awarded an extra point for the wdfw draw messup a couply years ago. I really dont like them fixing things that way they should have just re-run the draw so it would have been fair too all. It seems they do this quite a bit.

Thats complete crap, There is no way anybody should have more points then the people who have been putting in since the beggining. Wdfw is such a joke!

I am up 2 extra points for WDFW's screw ups on my special permit apps., and have been putting in since the start of the apps.  I don't have 16 pts, but your wife will be in dbl digits for sure.  Not practical to re-run the entire draw for missing/errors unless the majority were affected.  Personally I think they should give more points if WDFW screws up your application.  I know a guy who put in for the Entiat with 22 points (Yes he had 20 points for poachers) and he did not get drawn several years ago.  He drew the next year, but that just goes to show.  I know a lot of people who drew the first or second year just recently when others were putting in with dbl digit points.
