Just call the Olympia WDFW office tomorrow morning and they should be able to get it straightened out. I believe 360-902-2515 will get you to the right people.

they will change it, I've already had stuff changed around this year.  I put in for the tucannon also, so i can't wish you too much luck. What weapon did you put in for?  Myself I put in for the muzzy with 16 points.
“In common with”..... not so much!!

Doesn't the second choice only get used if the tags for a given hunt don't get filled on the first draw. If so, there's basically zero chance of a second draw in Dayton anyway so you will never have to worry about forgetting to add that to your choices. I think that tag will never get filled with a second choice pick.

No.
They go by the priority of your choices.  A few second choice applicants got drawn in Dayton, simply because their first choice was already filled.

:yeah:
They simply put all the names in the hat times the number of their points squared and start drawing.  A name gets drawn, then they look at which units that person applied for: 1st and 2nd choice both.  If there's any tags left in either hunt, then that person gets a tag in that hunt.  If not, then that person sees "Not Selected" on their results, even though they were selected for a chance to see if there were any tags left for what they applied for.
Bring a GPS!  It's awkward to have to eat your buddies!

Thanks for clarifying. I guess Washington's draw process is different from Idaho's in that respect. I certainly didn't want to mislead anyone and was making that assumption based on an Ask Fish and Game article I read. Guess I better get my second choices in  :)
