I actually had beers today with my friend from Cayuse and chatted about a lot of things, including the mailing list policy. They really take a practical approach to managing their list, which is for the active Customers they can put in Wish List orders for wines they aren't allocated, and then after allocations are processed they make an effort to fairly offer remaining available wines to a mix of both Wish List requests and new additions to from the Waiting List. So every year, some % of people will move up to the Allocation list, which may mean you are only getting a 3-pk of one particular wine, but then future years Wish List requests will likely gain you some other wines. Not quite sure how long it took me to clear the list, but I believe it was 18-24 months, but that was also 5+ years ago.
