Danger danger will Robinson... Else next bid group is great if you can scrape by, but it can also end up as just award whatever crap is left. You're like a vacume cleaner under the couch cushions. Sometime you find a quarter, sometimes it's the 3 year old crust from your college roommates pizza.
There is no reason to just "scrape by" with else next bid group. You can bid whatever you desire in a subsequent bid group. I routinely craft a "perfect" bid then have PBS go to a realistic backup bid group if the first one can't be honored. No couch cushion vacuuming required.

Totally changing direction here....
I'm not much of a credit card user and looking for the best rewards type card. I'm leaning towards a SPG AmEx since we stay at a number of those properties, just don't like the idea of a yearly fee. Not really interested in airline miles for obvious reasons, so any other type of rewards card is fair game.
Thanks in advance for the help and insight!

I've been working and off line for several days, so maybe I missed it if it was posted here, but the new DALPA forum is finally up and running. You have to re-register, the old site won't take you to the new one.
There seem to be some issues they are still working out with regard to who is/is not a Delta Pilot registering for the new site, until they sort that out I'm not going to provide the link. Drop me a PM and I'll give it to you.
A certain prolific poster has already got over 104 posts on it! I registered last night and tried to post today, seems I've not been cleared for that activity yet, so they are doing some fact checking before they allow just anybody on....I hope.
If this info has already been posted here, sorry for the repeat.
Carry on...

Timbo, are you saying the Delta ALPA forum is back online? Or are you talking about an alternative forum for Delta pilots? I went to the DALPA website and still get the "closed for business" sign.

5-days are a legacy NW fleet holdover. The commuters say they want them, a few take them, but most trickle to the bottom and are covered by the junior guys that don't want them. I think a strongly worded letter with lots of all caps and misspelled words is in order. 
I'd love to hang with you and BiigD, but like a bug to a bright light, I... must...stay....in...Mecca! My first wife really likes it there and so do I.

So, don't worry, you are safe from her as long as you stay in the crew hotel, as long as it isn't the crew hotel in BOG, or MEX, or ......
