If you can dream up a system where you can keep the guys that have been applying for 20+ years happy while someone who get drawn on their first application jumps the que I’m sure AEP would be all ears. The system we have now is broken some sheep draws have a 400 year que it’s a system where who ever started applying first and is still alive will get the tag at this rate. More tags will be like this soon like antelope for example.
