We will have a randomizer for the allocation. Whosoever is interested can put forward their names in this thread. Only test matches will be allocated right now. Members once given a test match cannot be given another. How it works - All the names will be put in the randomizer in alphabetical order and the matches will go to the members whose names are on pre-selected numbers. The numbers will also be selected by the randomizer. I will put all no.s from 1 to the no. of people who are interested. And then the top four no.s will be selected.

1) I put all no.s from 1 to 10 in the randomizer(I have used 10 for example, the original no. will be same as the no. of people who are willing to open a match thread) And this is what I got :

So the top four no.s here are - 5,9,1 and 4. 2) Now I have put first 10 characters of the English alphabet. In the original one, ICFers will replace these alphabets. 3) Here is what I got from randomizing them : So according to the examples - A will get first test(No. 5) G will get 2nd test(No. 9) D will get third test(No. 1) and B will get 4th test.(No. 4) I hope it is clear now.

We also have many Mumbai ICFers who will want that Mumbai thread. I can put your name in the list and if your name is one of the four selected names, then I'll give you the Kolkata test without going by the order.
