Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Add a system so that the longer you go without getting a certain job, the more likely you are to get it.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Makes it easier to get a popular job.
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
If you get a certain job one round all the other jobs get a +1, If you have a +1 in a job you have higher priority than people without a +1, When you get a job you lose all your +1(s) for that job, +1(s) stack, If you have a stack of +1(s) you have higher priority than people with no stack, If you have a large stack of +1(s) you have higher priority than people with a small stack of +1(s)
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
Make changes to the current job assignment system that is used at round-start.

A small note, I made this mainly with the Specialist in mind.

Re: Better Job Assignment
Basically, the more you miss the job you want, more chances you'll get it next time? This reminds me of something...

Re: Better Job Assignment
this'll lead to people readying up at roundstart, without spec pref on, then heading straight to cryo to do something else so they get them +1s
might improve server pop though, it'll be like MMORPG dailies
