Dang, sucks to be from SLC and have LAS rank you behind someone from BPT!

Thanks for posting. Question, does getting ranked high on the manager ranking list actually increase your chances at selection? Or is it just a mere formality for the NCEPT panel?
I believe if you are ranked 1 and it’s that facilities turn to choose, then you will be selected. As long as your facility can still release.

Read the rules. Round 1 vs. Round 2 matters.
You can be ranked #1 and lose out to a person ranked dead last. Trust me, I know.
So yes, a #1 ranking is certainly helpful, but the outcome depends on several other factors.

Yeah but pretty much if within the rules your facility can release and you are number 1 you will be getting picked up if that facility is eligible to be picked up. Obviously the rules for the different rounds change which facilities are able to release and pick up though

Yeah the higher up the list, the more likely you’ll be selected. As they run through the panel, they select the highest available person on each facilities ranking list that is still eligible to be released. As it goes through, people won’t be eligible anymore as their facility goes “red” with someone else from their facility getting picked earlier and they drop below their numbers. That’s why you see lower people in the ranking lists get chosen instead of the higher ranked. Those higher ranked people are no longer eligible to release from their facility so they go down the ranking list and pick the first eligible person. If no one is eligible, that facility just doesn’t get a pick.

No. I was blocked because my desired facility was Round 2. It didn’t matter that I was ranked #1. This person selected was trying to get to a Round 1 facility and they get continuous selections until they reach the PNA.
It didn’t matter that they’re ranked last. They were selected by default, and the only advantage I had throughout this process was tossed out of the window.
This is yet another consequence of having a luck based transfer system.

How is Ncept so broken that the second overall selection was a developmental. Imagine being a trainer at MSN. Your trainee gets picked up going to GFK blocking you from going to SCT or S56.
Yeah what I'm saying is those were the rules for that panel but had your facility still been releasable during round 2 and you were ranked number 1 at your facility you would have been picked up.
I could be misunderstanding something though but I'm also not saying that it's right that that's how it works either cause it's messed up
