You can let us decide what we do and don't want.  No offence but I'm
getting a bit tired of the dramatics from both sides here and would
rather just focus on the servers themselves.

Although it is tempting sometimes to evaluate the admin, and
although sometimes prospective admins come across so clueless or
unprofessional that we can't take the risk, the application process
is mainly to weed out the complete nutters and then to evaluate the
server.  The testlink itself is for evaluating the admin, and the
real performance of the server.

So if one of you does not get chosen for testlink then it is going
to be largely just bad luck because it was decided the other's
server was technically better.  It is also possible that both of you
could get a testlink but only one would be granted permlink -- and
that would be far worse for you to lose out at that stage.
