Out of curiosity, why do you prefer this?

You should be able to get the desired behavior by giving each node a
distinct Weight value. This will cause extra scheduling overhead, and
you need to have 100 NodeName-lines in your slurm.conf like this:

    NodeName=n1 ... Weight=1
    NodeName=n2 ... Weight=2
    NodeName=n3 ... Weight=3
    ...
    NodeName=n100 ... Weight=100

See the slurm.conf(5) man-page for details.
