Welcome to the world of politics. Officially known as greed, selfishness, miscomunication and sometimes even, someone just not getting their own way.
In our organization we essentially cater to senority, and rightfully so. However, we always have to keep in mind that there are never enough officials and we MUST keep the new one's interested and working. Not always easy. I have found that as long as you are as fair as possible about giving out the games, most officials respect that.
Some members believe, that senority means they are supposed to get ALL of the best games , WHENEVER they get in the mood to officiate. We generally don't cater to that self rightous philosophy. By the same toke if you don't move officials up to better games, they move on to other organizations where they can. Then your stuck with trying to get your senior members to handle all the games. Well they don't want to work that much. So as an Assignor you better be catering to both sides or your screwed.
You may want to suggest to your fellow officials the word "sharing". Sounds like were dealing with two year olds doesn't it? But truthfully, some people never grow up no matter how old they get. If they are not interested, move on and let them handle ALL the games, that will be their problem.
