Does anyone know what "removed during shuffle" means in the PBS results?
My first trip choice was "removed during shuffle".
Second went to a senior bidder and I was given my 3rd choice (all Asia/NRT trips).
My first choice trip was a carryout/slop and then I also had 12 or so domestic trips to fill up the remainder of the month. I'm assuming that the combination of my Asia trip and the domestic trips wouldn't give a result so it used the one Asia that's not a carryout?
Guess I shouldn't have split it up into 2 bid groups. The second bid group had my generic commands, but I'd always heard that shuffle is a good thing.......if you don't give it a lot to shuffle.

Ferd, It means that you did not bid a specific trip, and to compete a line of time for a junior guy they removed your awarded trip and assigned another trip that fit your parameters so that they could fill the junior bidder up with a full LOT.
(At least that is why the PBS gurus told me it meant. I could be wrong

I'll drop a note to one of the PBS guys. Not a big deal, I like the trip I got........but I had evil plans for March

So you bid trips, then shuffled, them lower in the big group?
Yep, above my pay grade. I need a lesson in bidding too.
