 ## Admissions
 
-Our goal is to admit applicants on a periodic basis. We will admit all contributors who meet the required criteria, but if we have more applicants than slots, we will randomly admit accounts, prioritizing those more likely to participate due to having been recently active on X, and those that tend to follow and engage with different posts than existing contributors do — so as to reduce the likelihood that contributors would be predominantly from one ideology, background, or interest space.
