Maybe if they implemented some kind of system where people could log on for an extended period, perhaps a month, and fill out a form for the tags they're interested in. That would alleviate the server overload issues.
Then Idaho could take those forms and randomly select winners from them in a predetermined time frame, perhaps a week. That would solve the department and vendor overload issues.
But where would they ever find such a system?
You're putting A LOT of faith in a system you can't watch work. If there is this many errors and problems on something you can witness can you imagine what happens when they compile and "Randomly" draw from hundreds of thousands of applications?
I partially agree though. I forsee all nonresident tags being draw only eventually. I just wish the process was a little more transparent.
