I will refrain from expressing an opinion except to say that it's Andrew's
decision as far as I'm concerned.

I haven't kept count, but I think it's more evenly split (especially since
Jeff's message quoted above).

Yes, that would have resolved my issue nicely. But I am equally satisfied with rerunning the selection algorithm.
I believe there were some mail delivery glitches at the Secretariat on the day in question, so this might not have been completely straightforward.

It seems to me that drawing a second sample would be unbiased if the decision to draw it were made before anyone knew the contents of the first sample.
I was much more concerned about the failure to announce the volunteer list before the relevant market closing than about the presence of an ineligible name. I don't see how one can remove the theoretical presence of bias unless the list is announced in advance. I completely agree that an extra name in the list doesn't create bias.

He didn't. It was a person who noticed the anomaly who cc'ed me.
but given that your position is one of those being selected, the fact that you expressed an opinion at all was phenomenally irresponsible.
I disagree. My concern was to ensure that there is neither bias nor appearance of potential bias in the process. I believe it would have been irresponsible not to.
Now, in addition to questions about Andrew's motivations for doing the reset (the theoretical "Did he want a 'do-over' because he didn't like the outcome?"), we also have to contend with whether *you* influenced the process deliberately because *you* didn't like the outcome. Unbelievably ill-advised on your part.
Actually, I don't recall even looking at the list of selected volunteers.
