You never replied to my request for an example of even 1 person that was squashed by the "network"...someone that was truly more deserving than others but didn't get a chance. I know of several people who have left Portland and headed north to Vancouver but not one that I can think of was getting an unfair treatment. Most of them were getting very good schedules....some far better than most people with the same experience. They may have been frustrated with things for whatever reason but it wasn't because they were being treated unfairly relative to their peers.

Never saw your request...until now. IM on the way. And the names I send you will be people who were held back from getting "good schedules" until it became so apparent to everyone that they were too good to be held back. They were not part of your assignor's "Network" or "circle" and were not treated fairly because of that. Finally some in that "network" said things like "Hey, Xxxx is really pretty damn good." Then suddenly they start getting better assignments and tournaments. Shocking.
