Concretely, for match leading:

  • run one platform properly instead of five badly specifically for match leading
  • hold your number back until you have actually met specifically for match leading
  • set aside three weeks before deciding anything about match leading
  • stay on the platform for the first few exchanges at least where match leading is concerned
