If there are 50 who are good enough then over the course of several years all 50 of them should get to go.

Hear Hear!!
These officials are being rewarded for figuring out who's azz they had to kiss to get there. That is where the difference lies, imo. It's these same ole assigners that keep putting these people into these games year after year after year. You can bet next year it will be the same people again. My idea of term limits for the assigners is what is truly needed. We need more transistion in the ranks of the individuals that are tasked to assign these games. It's that simple....
Rainmaker, in your system that looks for officials that didn't work last year. What do they do with the officials that did work, the senior tournament guys?
