That system works if that scheduler works everyday. My guess is that scheduler A does it the way you described, but the next day scheduler B does it completely by raw score with the 4/5 day days-available only. Then scheduler C does it by raw score in the 3/4/5 days-available block.

If the cookie crumbles the wrong way, you could do a lot of SC in short amount of time. Last month, I think I did 3 SC in one week.

I know they need people on SC and don't mind doing my share, but I wish there was SOME system for how it SC was assigned. That way, you could say, "well, I got SC today but there's a decent chance I won't get it until everyone else has done a SC".

I'm also a big fan of getting a credit in the RAW score for SC.
