Ok. Along those same lines of permits going unused....
Don't stop drawing after a the permits are filled. Keep drawing from the hundreds sent in. Therefore giving a quasi waiting list. Then have a deadline for the permit fees. If you fail to get your fees in on time, your permit goes to the next person drawn on the list. The list would become a "right of first refusal" kind of thing. TPWD just keeps going down the list until they fill the permits and fees are paid.
