I totally understand it is a game of chance, however when you look at the number of people at a given point level and add them all up there are still statistical probabilities as to what point levels tags should be drawn at. I’m not gonna go back and find exact numbers but if I remember right 2 years ago, the unit I put in for had 9 people at 4 points, 12 at 3, and 6 at 2 so in the point pools you have 576 chances in the 4 point pool, 324 in the 3 point pool and 48 in the 2 point pool, it then becomes real hard to believe when 5 of 8 tags end up being drawn at that 2 point level. At some point in the point game ponzi scheme it is understandable when a lower point level draws, I’ll use the state of Washington for an example, my dad is at max points on mt goat and moose but about 5 years after he started applying they stopped requiring upfront money and there was a glut of new applicants(1500 or more) so while my dad is one of the 2 or 3 folks left at max points it doesn’t matter, his odds go down every year because despite him having 29 or 30 points there are so many applicants at the 24-25 point level that the total number of names in the bucket goes up each year, however I am continually baffled as to how the point levels with less chances in the bucket continues to draw the majority of tags
